RedNovelChapter 537 Vera Comes Up with an Idea
Molly spent the whole freakin’ afternoon in Sebastian's office, not even glancing at her phone, trying to make
him give up.
She saw how swamped Sebastian was. By the tevening rolled around, it was way past dinner, and neither
Sebastian nor his crew had grabbed a bite. Feeling kinda bad, she went out, snagged sdinner for the
officers, and dropped it off before bouncing.
When Sebastian finally wrapped up a case and went looking for Molly, he realized she had already dipped.
Back at the Olteran Mansion.
Vera was already at the door. "Are you done shopping?"
Molly locked eyes with Vera, feeling like she could see right through her.
"Vera," Molly greeted.
Vera gave Molly's outfit a once-over and said, "You wanna spill the beans, or should 1?"
Molly wondered if coming clean would mean getting shelp from Vera.
"Cto my room," Molly said.
Vera followed her. Once inside, Molly plopped down at the foot of the bed, and Vera, in her PJs, sat beside her.
Vera reached out to touch Molly's neck, stopping at her turtleneck. Molly blushed and closed her eyes. Vera
paused and asked, "Can | see?"
Molly didn't say anything, but Vera got the hint.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe pulled down the sweater collar, spotting the faint marks she knew all too well. Shocked, she looked at
Molly's blushing face and then let go.
Vera glanced at her own palm. "Go on."
Molly was quiet for a sec before asking, "Can you guess who left this hickey?"
"Sebastian," Vera answered without missing a beat. "He's the only guy around you who'd do that."
Molly went silent again. So, everyone knew.
"Vera, promiseyou won't freak out," Molly begged.
Vera said, "Don't worry, I'm ready."
Molly took a deep breath. "Sebastian and | hooked up."
The so-called prepared Vera's eyes went wide. "What! When!"
"No, don't freak out. | was just seen naked, but he told everyone we hooked up. He lied to Ellie and Timothy,
saying we were a couple and had been for a while. But really, nothing happened between us," Molly explained
frantically. Vera asked, surprised, "You really didn't hook up?"
She never imagined Molly would be so bold as to hook up with Sebastian. At least she had gone through
marriage before confirming their feelings and hooking up.
Seeing Vera's shock and disbelief, Molly realized what she might face if she confessed to the Olteran family.
"We really didn't go that far. He lied, and no one believesno matter how much | explain," Molly said. Vera
was like, "No way. Even if Sebastian's lying, Ellie and Timothy wouldn't buy it without proof."
Molly was losing it. "The worst part is, | messed up, and yet fate still helped Sebastian! | kissed him on the cheek
that day, sent the pic to Abby to mess with her. Then that night..." Molly was too embarrassed to go on, "I wasn't
dressed right and Sebastian kissedthere."
"Where?" Vera asked.
Molly blushed and pointed to her chest. "Then he saw the birthmark under my chest and used it to lie to Ellie and
Timothy. They bought it."
Vera was too shocked to even blink. "And then?"
Molly spilled everything that had gone down recently, her head hanging in frustration. "Vera, what do | do?"
Vera was stumped. "Molly, be real with me. Do you like Sebastian?"
Molly bit her lip. "I think I do."
With that, Vera got it. "Then you should get married."
Molly only felt safe confiding in Vera. "How do | even bring it up to the Olteran family? How can Sebastian
propose without getting booted out with the gifts?" Vera was blunt. "Don't be too greedy."
That night, Molly and Vera talked until Patrick cback.
Among the Olteran family, Molly was most scared of Patrick. "Vera, can you talk Patrick into helpingwith
this?"
Vera said, "Honestly, even though he lovesthe most, if he's against something, no amount of talking from
Molly felt a bit down, but Vera comforted her. "Don't worry, | won't leave you hanging. Letgive you a
suggestion."
When Patrick got home, he didn't see Vera and Theodore at the door. Walking into the living room, he saw
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTheodore chilling on the couch, playing with Randall and Susan. He walked over and they made room for him.
Patrick picked up Theodore from the couch and asked, "Where's Vera?"
Knowing Theodore wouldn't answer, Patrick patted his little butt and asked Randall, "Where's Vera?"
Randall replied, "She's in Molly's room."
Patrick headed towards Molly's room, ready to knock when the door opened from the inside.
Seeing Patrick, Vera took Theodore from his arms, exchanged a look with Molly, closed the door, and walked
away without saying a word to Patrick. Patrick rubbed his nose, feeling a bit guilty, and let it go.
That night, Molly took Vera's advice and went to Vincent and Cindy's bedroom door, knocking, "Cindy, you
awake?"
Cindy replied, "No, Molly, cin."
Molly opened the door and saw Vincent in his pajamas.
Seeing Molly, Vincent knew she had something to discuss with Cindy, so he made an excuse. "Cindy, I'll head to
the study. You and Molly can chat." Vincent intentionally left space for Cindy and Molly.
Molly was touched as Vincent left and she thanked him.
