Chapter 501 Wronged

Vera shot up from Patrick's lap, her face twisted in anger. "You're treating Theodore like crap! What kind of dad are you?"

Ever since she became a mom, Vera couldn't handle hearing her baby cry. She was always the first to cave.

She stormed towards the door but then remembered something, spun around, and snatched the diamond bracelet off the table, slapping it onto her wrist with a huff.

No way she was leaving without that bling.

She then rushed to the door, scooped up a sobbing Theodore, and cradled him close. As she walked, she started unbuttoning her blouse. "Shh, baby, don't cry. Mommy's got you. We don't need Daddy anymore." As her voice faded, a smirk crept onto Patrick's stern face.

That night, Vera decided to give him the cold shoulder.

When it was bedtime, Theodore wasn't in his crib, and Vera was nowhere in the master bedroom.

This was the first night Vera was pissed enough to sleep in a different room.

Patrick headed to the guest room, but the door was locked from the inside.

Hearing the noise, Vera knew Patrick was there.

She spoke loudly to the sleeping Theodore, "Your daddy's a jerk, right? Always picking on us. From now on, it's just you and me. Don't worry, baby, Mommy's got you."

Patrick, standing outside, said, "The bedroom door's open. If you can't handle Teddy alone, just bring him back."

Then he walked away.

Vera muttered, "I can totally handle him alone. Who do you think you're underestimating?"

Late at night, Vera was at her wit's end as Theodore kept crying.

Hearing Theodore's cries, he knocked. "Is he hungry?" Through the door, Vera replied, "I can't get him
