Chapter 538 The Surprise from Vera

Molly barged into Cindy's room, catching her in the middle of her bedtime routine. "Hey Cindy, we gotta talk."

Cindy waved her over to the couch, curious. "What's up?"

"It's about relationships," Molly said, looking a bit nervous.

Molly spent the next half hour spilling the tea about her and Sebastian, laying it all out for Cindy.

Earlier that afternoon, Vera had nudged her to have this chat with Cindy tonight.

"Molly, don't let Cindy's quiet vibe at home fool you. When it comes to your love life, she's got your back! Plus, you gotta come clean eventually, and Cindy's gonna find out sooner or later. Better to get her on your side now. And hey, she's older and wiser, she'll know what to do."

"Also, we've been tight for over a decade, but you gotta treat Cindy and me the same. You can't just tell me and leave her out. That ain't fair, and Cindy's always been good to you," Vera reminded her.

Vera had changed a lot since getting hitched and becoming a mom. She was more level-headed now, always helping Molly figure stuff out.

Sometimes Molly felt like Vera was on a whole different level.

Vera once said, "Before you get married, you're just a kid, loved by your parents, no need to grow up. After you tie the knot, you're an adult. And once you have kids, you're a parent, and you gotta protect them. Responsibilities change, and so do your views. When you get married and have kids, you'll change too."

The big difference between her and Vera was that Molly still felt like a kid, while Vera was already a wife and mom.

After their chat, Molly asked, "Cindy, what should I do?"

Cindy, though totally shocked, kept her cool. "So, you told the Chase family, but you can't tell ours?"
