The CEO's Mischievous Little Bride by Whispering Willow

Chapter 500 Feeding Theodore Formula Milk

Vera came clean, "Molly's itching for a fight, and I gotta back her up."

Patrick raised an eyebrow, "Why's she throwing punches?"

Vera shrugged, "You gotta ask her. I just rounded up some folks, didn't even show my face. Last night, you were all over me, remember?" Patrick's intense gaze locked onto Vera's round cheeks.

Thinking about the list his assistant handed him today, Patrick shifted and grilled her, "You're pretty slick at finding people, huh? You snagged almost half of the top 40 pros from the Shadow Syndicate United."

Vera looked down, muttering, "If you're gonna brawl, you don't get scrubs, you get the best."

Patrick, hearing her loud and clear, was left speechless.

After a beat, Patrick asked, "She told you to find them, so you did. Why didn't she do it herself?"

Vera puffed up with pride, "Cause she ain't got the rep I do. When Crimson Viper calls, the pros come running. Molly's got no pull in the Shadow Syndicate United. Her notice would've been buried. When I post, it goes straight to the top!" She admitted her mistake but couldn't resist flaunting her status in the Shadow Syndicate United.

Vera's pride was short-lived as Patrick's next words deflated her instantly.

Patrick said, "Since you're so capable, you can handle your graduation thesis on your own."

Vera yelped, "I can't! Babe."

Patrick snorted, and Vera quickly tried to butter him up. "Babe, I'm not capable at all. My hubby's the most capable guy in the world."

Patrick's lips twitched into a slight smile, waiting to see what else she'd say.
