Chapter 532 Pitiful Teddy

Shawn leaned back and said, "Molly, you gotta learn how to blow some cash. Patrick's busting his butt to make that dough so we can spend it. If you don't, he's got no reason to hustle. And Vera, you gotta get the hang of online shopping too. Those apps are a lifesaver. Why drag yourself to the store when you can just tap a few buttons?" Vera, chilling next to Patrick, pointed at Theodore in his arms, "I gotta be thrifty. You think raising a kid is cheap? He's already burned through a ton of diapers, and those things ain't cheap."

Teddy, catching some flak for his diaper usage, let out a few cries.

Patrick looked down at Theodore with a soft smile, "You know Mommy's talking about you, huh?"

Ever since Patrick became a dad, everyone could see he had turned into a big ol' softie!

Around eight in the evening, Sebastian rolled back to the hotel and opened the door, but Molly was MIA.

The water bottle on the table was bone dry. He chuckled a bit and headed to the bathroom, spotting her used toothbrush just lying there.

Sebastian picked up the toothbrush and smirked coldly, "So disgusted with me, huh?"

Molly got a call from Sebastian while the Olteran family was in the living room, watching TV, gaming, and chatting.

The vibe in the Olteran house was chill. Vera and Cindy were swapping parenting tips, Shawn and Molly were teaming up in a game. Susan was on the floor, turning an apple into a masterpiece with a knife, even though it was just for eating. Randall would glance at her now and then but didn't mess with her flow. He was deep in convo with Vincent and Patrick. Teddy, lying in the middle of the room, woke up and whimpered, so Vera scooped him up.

Everyone was doing their thing, and Sebastian's call made Molly's heart skip a beat.

"Hang up, Molly, we're about to win," Shawn urged.

Molly did just that and kept playing the game with Shawn.
