Chapter 415 Vera Wants to Go Out and Play

Shawn asked, "And then?"

Cindy smiled. "But then I thought, if you marry someone you like but they don't like you, even if you marry them, they'll just be indifferent to you. If you marry someone you don't like but who likes you, there's a reason you don't like them, and living together for a lifetime would be painful. So, it's better to find someone suitable."

Shawn smiled and said, "Young people these days have their ideas. They're independent in thought and character. Much better than our generation."

Cindy also said, "Times are changing, and their discussions are worth having. Molly will eventually get married, and Randall will too. Vera's been through it all, and her insights could be really valuable for them." Shawn nodded in agreement.

When Patrick came home in the afternoon, they ended the discussion.

After dinner, Vera circled around Patrick. "Honey, I'm so bored. I've been cooped up at home all day. I want to go out. Can you take me out?

"If not, at least let me walk around Cherry Villa. I don't want to be stuck at home. Cindy won't let me go out; Shawn is afraid I'll go out; Molly can't drive; Randall has been sent away by you; and Noah isn't home. It's just you. Please take me out. Let's go out, please."

Patrick was dizzy from Vera's circling, not sure if she was dizzy, too.

He agreed, "Alright, stop spinning."

Vera stopped abruptly and collapsed into Patrick's arms, her body completely relaxed, placing all her weight on him. "Honey, take me out for a walk. I haven't been out in almost ten days."

Patrick tried to negotiate, "I have things to do today. How about I take you out in a few days, okay?"

Vera's face fell as she realized it wasn't going to happen.

She immediately stood up from Patrick's arms and sighed, "Fine, you go ahead. I'll go for a walk in the backyard."
