The CEO's Mischievous Little Bride by Whispering Willow

Chapter 498 Can You Call Me Next Time You Fight?

Failing to get on Ellie's good side, Abby turned to Susan and asked, "Who the heck are you?"

Susan shot back, "Look, I'm not here to make friends, so let's skip the introductions."

Ellie cut in and told Abby to scram.

Later that night, Susan was dozing off by Ellie's bedside when Molly gently shook her awake. "Susan, I'm back."

Susan rubbed her eyes and saw Molly, who looked like she'd been crying. "Molly," she mumbled.

Molly put her hands on Susan's shoulders. "Thanks, Susan, for having my back. Randall's coming to get you soon, so you can crash at home."

Susan glanced over and noticed Sebastian was there too.

The vibe between him and Molly was tense, like a couple giving each other the silent treatment after a big fight.

Not sure how to break the ice, Susan just nodded and waited for Randall to show up.

"Who all came by today?" Molly asked softly.

Susan thought for a moment and said, "Some guy named Bryant, said he was Ellie's nephew, but I sent him packing. Then a lady came with food, but Ellie wasn't having it. No other visitors. Timothy showed up too; he tried to get me to go home, but I wasn't budging. He finally suggested I sleep on the couch while he crashed in his car downstairs. He just came up a bit ago to check on Ellie."

The couch was tiny, and Timothy wanted to stay with Ellie, but Susan was dead set on keeping her promise to Molly, so she stayed put.

No matter what, Susan wasn't leaving. Timothy felt too weird staying in the room with a girl he didn't know, so he let Susan have the couch and went to sleep in his car, popping in now and then to check on Ellie. Molly nodded. "Thanks for looking after my mom, Susan."
