The CEO's Mischievous Little Bride
Chapter 119 Vera Is Acting Cute to Me.

Randall pointed at Vera's face and accused, "Grandpa, I've told you before. Don't be fooled by her appearance; she really has a hot temper."

Vera kicked Randall, trying hard to salvage her image in front of Shawn. "Shawn, I'm not usually hot-tempered at all. At home, I'm very gentle and obedient, right? This time, I only got angry because someone provoked me first. Who wouldn't get angry when provoked, right?" By the end, she was stuttering a bit, feeling guilty.

Shawn nodded, then thought, 'But when we get angry, we don't resort to such cruel methods like you do.'

She tore someone's scalp until it bled and rubbed a girl's mouth on the ground.

At this moment, Vera thought of pretending to be obedient. She said, "Shawn, just tell me whether they deserve to be beaten."

Shawn, recalling the insults hurled at her, slapped his leg excitedly. "They deserve it!"

In the nearby cage, there were still over twenty students, all of whom witnessed Randall being called "Grandpa" by the old man and Vera calling the old man "Dad."

Wasn't Vera supposed to be Randall's girlfriend?

Next, the arrival of a man made everyone surprised.

Patrick arrived.

He came to the police station to pick up Vera!

On his way there, he had already learned everything about Vera at school.

"Mr. Olteran, this is why Vera is here at the police station." Jack talked to him along the way.

Patrick's expression was unreadable as he asked, "Is Vera hurt?"

"She's not. It's others who got hurt."

"Who's the culprit?"

"Alexis."

Patrick muttered, "It's the Tooker family again."

"Acquire Evergreen University, put it under Vera's name, and announce it."

After saying this, Patrick got out of the car.

Jack understood Patrick's intentions; he was about to seek justice for Vera.

At the police station, Patrick appeared.

"Patrick, you're here," Shawn greeted him first.

The students detained on the side was astonished; this old man was the corporate titan Patrick's father!

Shawn pointed at the detained Vera and said to Patrick, "Your wife was bullied at school and you didn't even know, how can you be her husband?" Everyone was stunned once again, unable to speak.

Someone whispered, "Is Vera married? Who is her husband?"

Everyone looked at the man at the top of the business world.

Patrick was the man who held great power in the economic field.

Patrick stood in front of the cage, looking at the frightened and shrinking Vera inside.

"Did you get into a fight?" he asked.

Upon hearing Patrick's voice, Vera's tears fell uncontrollably.

She nodded with a pout.

"Did you win the fight?" he asked again.

Vera whimpered, crying while nodding.

It seemed like she was the one being bullied.

Randall was surprised at how quickly Vera started crying. "Vera, don't cry, Uncle Patrick is here."

Patrick showed no intention of comforting her.

"If you won the fight, why are you crying?"

With a small crying voice, Vera said, "I'm afraid you'll be angry."

She had caused trouble for Patrick again, and she was afraid he would dislike her.

At the thought that Patrick might dislike her, she felt depressed. Her nose stuffy; tears uncontrollably streaming down her face. Upon hearing her crying, Patrick's expression softened instantly, filled with pity and love for her, no longer wanting to be angry.

He smiled and waved to Vera in the cage. "Come here."

Vera shook her head. "I dare not."

Shawn interjected, "Vera, you were fighting fearlessly earlier. Why are you scared when you see Patrick?"

Patrick's gaze fell on the bruises on her arms, his expression turning dark.

He suddenly felt annoyed;  the fierceness in his eyes exuded his anger.

Vera was very sensitive. How could she not understand the meaning conveyed in his eyes?

She thought Patrick's anger was directed at her.

Feeling wronged, she burst into tears in the cell.

Randall, feeling confused, said, "Vera, why are you crying again?"

"Darling, I'm sorry."

A nearby officer couldn't bear it and opened the door of the cage to let Vera out to cry.

However, she wouldn't come out! She was afraid Patrick would hit her.

Randall said, "I'll come out."

The officer pushed Randall in. "Your guarantor hasn't arrived. You can't leave."

He pointed at Patrick and said, "This is my uncle."

The officer glanced at Patrick, then at the documents in his hand. "Mr. Olteran is here to bail out his wife, not his nephew."

In that moment, Randall felt hopeless..

Hearing Vera's cries, Patrick felt agitated, so he voluntarily entered the cage and approached Vera.

He lovingly wiped away the tears from her eyes, trying to make his voice gentle. "Good girl, stop crying."

Vera pouted and indeed stopped crying.

Patrick lifted her arm to look at the nail marks on it, his eyes showing a hint of heartache.

"Darling, do you hate me?"

"If I hated you, I wouldn't be so heartbroken," Patrick said.

Vera clung to Patrick's waist with both hands, crying as she nestled into his embrace.

Soon after, Cindy and Mr. Olteran arrived.

Seeing them, the officer stood up and respectfully greeted them, "Mr. Vincent Olteran, Mrs. Cindy Olteran, why are you here?"

Vincent pointed at Randall in the cage. "We're here to bail him out."

Randall was stunned. "Mom, Dad, please bail me out."

The classmates on the side were already too shocked to speak.

What exactly was their relationship?

Seeing Vera also there and crying non-stop, Cindy was too worried to care about Randall and went straight to check Vera's injuries. "Are you okay, Vera? Don't scare me. Why are you crying like this? Who hit you? Are you injured? Let me check."

Vera, with a childlike mentality, hugged Patrick's waist and kept crying. "Cindy, I'm fine."

Cindy clearly didn't believe her; how could she be fine?

"Don't hide it from me, dear. Tell me if something's wrong. I'm very worried and anxious right now."

Randall tugged at Cindy's sleeve. "Mom, your son is here."

Cindy immediately pushed Randall away and continued to worryingly look at Vera.

Later, Patrick held Vera, who was leaning against him, and said, "Cindy, Vera is fine. She just saw me and started crying out of grievance. Now she's just being cute with me." Cindy felt speechless.

Then, Vera stopped to cry and nodded, saying, "Cindy, I'm really fine. I won the fight."
