The CEO's Mischievous Little Bride

"What kind of magic trick is this?" Another unsolved mystery emerged.

Vera reminded, "Call him by his full name, not his nickname."

So, the cheerful living room of Lilac Manor was filled with joy because of Theodore's arrival.

Molly, however, wanted to test it out, "Theodore."

Theodore, who had been smiling, suddenly stopped. His excited little face began to retract, and he stared blankly at Molly, who was holding him.

"Theodore?" Molly called out tentatively again.

Theodore's little mouth quivered, and he blinked his clear, bright eyes.

Molly was puzzled, "Strange, he's not crying."

As soon as she finished speaking, Theodore's mouth turned down in grievance, his

little face wrinkled, and a clear cry came out of his mouth.

Theodore cried, Timothy watched, and Zoey and Max also looked at the crying Theodore with smiles, eager to hold the child.

Sebastian hung up the phone and hurried over to hold the crying Theodore, "There, there, tell me, why are you crying again? Did Molly bully you?"

Molly was stunned too, what to do, Theodore was really crying!

Now, no one could calm Theodore down. He even resisted when they tried to feed him formula.

Sebastian held him close to his chest, gently patting Theodore's back, but it didn't work.

Molly, feeling guilty, bit her nails and sought help from Vera, who was in class, "Vera, your son is crying, how do I calm him down?"

"Tell him you love him."

Molly said, "What kind of confusing trick is this?"

But Molly still said to Theodore, "Theodore, I love you."

Theodore continued to cry; it didn't work at all.

"Vera, it's not working."

Vera replied, "Take him to the Olteran Group and give him to Patrick, no one else can calm him down."

Molly thought, how could making a child cry require going to the Olteran Group to find Patrick? She hadn't forgotten that the last time Randall made Theodore cry, Randall's car was impounded, and Patrick ordered it to be painted pink.

If Patrick found out it was her who made Theodore cry, then she...

But Theodore was crying so heartbreakingly, that he even threw away his pacifier.noveldrama

Helplessly, Theodore was sent to the Olteran Group in broad daylight, crying pitifully all the way.

At the company, without an appointment, the receptionist wouldn't let Sebastian and Molly go up.

Then they saw Theodore, wasn't this Patrick's child?

Eventually, Sebastian and Molly managed to get upstairs, thanks to Theodore's crying face.

Vera directly said, "Take Patrick's private elevator up."

In Patrick's private elevator, Molly took the initiative to hold Sebastian's arm for the first

time, "Sebastian, I'm your wife, you'll protect me, right?"

Sebastian glanced at Molly, "Where are you sleeping tonight?"

"Your room!" At this moment, the physical pain was far less terrifying than Patrick's unknown punishment!

Sebastian looked at Molly's neckline and smiled, "Go back early tonight."

As soon as they stepped out of the elevator, Patrick heard the familiar crying through the door.

Randall got up and went over to hold Theodore, "Why are you crying like this?" At this moment, Patrick came out.

"Teddy?"

Theodore looked at Patrick, feeling more and more aggrieved.

Patrick took Theodore in his arms and said to Sebastian and Molly, "Come to my office." He glanced at Randall, "Get back to work."

Randall lazily walked away and reluctantly started working again.

Back in the office, Patrick asked, "Why is he crying again? Wasn't he at home?"

Sebastian said, "I called his name, and he started crying."

Molly gratefully looked at Sebastian; he was her savior.

Patrick, understanding the reason, couldn't help but laugh. He wiped the tears from Theodore's little face with a soft cloth, held him close to his chest, patted the back of his head, and said with a smile, "Teddy, mommy and daddy love you the most, don't cry. Theodore is you, Teddy is also you, don't get confused."

Molly was curious, "Patrick, what's wrong with your son?"

"He doesn't know his own name, when you call him Theodore, he thinks you're calling someone else."

Sebastian was intrigued, "Kids can get jealous too."

"He's almost six months old, very jealous. If he doesn't sleep with Vera for one night, he gets so upset that my dad can't rest. When he gets jealous, you have to tell him you love him to calm him down. Even when he was in the womb, he had a bad temper."

A father's embrace has magic. Patrick got up, holding Theodore, and walked around by the window a few times, giving him enough sense of security, and Theodore gradually stopped crying.

But his eyelashes, stuck together because of the tears, were long and curly, and his misty eyes made the adorable Theodore so endearing that Molly wanted to hold him again.

Randall wanted to see Theodore and came in several times. Patrick always gave him a stern look, "Get back to work."

Theodore, seeing the unlucky Randall, stopped crying. When he saw Randall, his little body leaned towards him, wanting to be held.

Patrick later asked Randall, "Will holding Teddy improve your work efficiency?"

"I can finish in an hour."

"Half an hour," Patrick demanded.

Randall said, "Deal."

With that, Randall went around to Patrick's desk and unceremoniously took the onesie- clad Theodore from Patrick's arms, happily and excitedly leaving the room.

After Randall left, Molly noticed something was off between Randall and Patrick. She nudged Sebastian with her elbow, feeling guilty for making Theodore cry, and didn't dare to speak, so she let Sebastian ask for her.

Sebastian and Molly had an unspoken understanding. He directly asked, "Is something wrong with Randall?"

Patrick looked at the surveillance screen showing Randall and snorted, "He's mad at me, let's see how long he can stay mad."

Then Patrick turned his gaze to Molly, "What did you do this time? You've been here for a while and haven't said a word."

Molly's eyes shifted to Sebastian, how could they see through her mischief so easily?

Sebastian chuckled, "Teddy was stolen from Shawn by Molly and me today, Shawn scolded Molly."

Later, Molly, feeling guilty, said, "Patrick, I went out to take care of your child."

Without waiting for a response, she left.

After Molly left, Patrick directly asked Sebastian, "Is Teddy's crying related to Molly?"

Outside, Molly pulled up a chair and sat next to Randall.

Randall and Theodore simultaneously turned their heads, looking at the bothersome Molly with the same expression.

"What are you doing here?" Randall asked.

Molly said, "Hiding for my life."

When Molly tried to hold Theodore, Randall hugged Theodore tightly, letting him sit

on his lap, and continued working with one hand.
