The CEO's Mischievous Little Bride by Whispering Willow

Chapter 687 Pondering When There's Nothing to Do

Randall felt a pang of sympathy as he watched Teddy, who was sleeping fitfully with his eyes closed. The moment Randall took him, Teddy sensed he was no longer in Vera's arms and immediately woke up, crying loudly. His teary eyes looked in Vera's direction, full of distress.

"It's okay, I'll hold him. Teddy's not feeling well and just wants to be with me," Vera said, taking Teddy back. She switched arms when one got tired and sometimes held him upright, letting his little face rest against her neck. As long as Vera was holding him, Teddy wouldn't cry, even though he couldn't see her with his eyes closed.

"You should go rest. Patrick has a headquarters meeting tomorrow, and since you're acting chief, you need to attend. I'll calm Teddy down and then head back," Vera reassured Randall.

Randall seemed more mature as he went upstairs and came back with a blanket, wrapping Teddy up like a newborn.

"I'm not tired. Let me hold Teddy for a while so you can sleep," Randall said, taking Teddy again.

"Don't be silly. I can sneak in a nap between classes tomorrow, but you have work. Can you sneak in a nap there?" Vera took the now-awake Teddy back, seeing Randall's concern. She then went upstairs to the bedroom, making sure Randall saw her.

Teddy finally settled down in the early hours of the morning, and Vera experienced firsthand how challenging motherhood could be.

Just as mother and son lay down, Patrick woke up. Vera shook her head at him, signaling not to speak, and gently laid Teddy down before lying down herself.

Patrick glanced at the clock-it was 3 AM. He turned on his side, placing a hand on Teddy to give him a sense of security.

Vera fell asleep quickly, but whenever Teddy stirred, it was Patrick who woke up, patting Teddy until he fell back asleep.

The next day, Vera handed Teddy over to Molly and left for school with Susan.

Patrick drove them, while Randall went to the office to prepare for the meeting.
