The CEO's Mischievous Little Bride
Chapter 19 Instigating Discord

He stood by the window for two minutes and let out a soft sigh. Then, he continued upstairs with an expressionless face. Seeing Patrick, Vera was surprised. "Aren't you on a date? Why did you come back so soon?"

Patrick glared at her fiercely and went to the cloakroom.

"You're rolling your eyes at me again. Do you think you're the only one who can do that?" Vera complained behind him. Cindy had just arrived home and saw Emma crying as soon as she got off the car.

She ordered the servants to take her things to her room and walked alone to Emma's side. "Emma, what's wrong?"

Seeing Cindy, Emma quickly wiped her tears and said, "Cindy, you're back."

"Emma, why are you crying?" Cindy looked around and saw two cups on the table. She asked, "Who bullied you just now?"

Emma felt ashamed and didn't want to tell Cindy what Patrick had said to her.

She shook her head and said, "Cindy, forget it."

"Was it Vera?" Cindy seemed certain it was Vera. She said, "Wait here. I won't let you be bullied."

Cindy immediately prepared to find Vera, but Emma quickly stopped her. "Cindy, don't do that."

"I forgot that she and Patrick went back to her place today. They shouldn't be home." If Vera isn't home, then it wasn't her who bullied Emma. Cindy felt like she was being too impulsive, blaming Vera for everything bad. Cindy's self-reflection was not over yet, but Emma intentionally said, "She's already back. I saw her just now."

"What? It was her! How dare she bully you? How could she be so arrogant?"

Emma hesitated and said, "Cindy, don't provoke her for my sake. She's very malicious. She even wants..." She pretended not to dare to look into Cindy's eyes..

"What does she want?" Cindy asked angrily.

Emma swallowed. "Just now, she was pleasing Uncle Shawn. Uncle Shawn said she's the lady of the Olteran family and that you have a narrow mind and are not fit to manage the Olteran family." Cindy clenched her fist. She gritted her teeth and asked Emma, "Is it true?"

"Cindy, don't tell her it was me who said this. If she complains to Uncle Shawn, I won't be able to come see you anymore." As Cindy struggled to control her anger, Emma continued, "Cindy, to be honest, you can't let a woman like her stay by Patrick's side. She wants to replace you as the lady of the Olteran family, which shows how terrible she is. She definitely won't let Randall have any shares in the Olteran Group."

Emma knew Cindy's weakness. Having known each other for years, Emma knew that Cindy didn't want the Olteran Group to grow under Patrick's leadership. All the company's old employees had been replaced by Patrick's people. If Patrick gained control of the Olteran Group, there would be no place for Randall.

Emma intentionally said these things to provoke Cindy against Vera.

"Cindy, the Olteran Group belongs to the Olteran family. Although I love Patrick, I'm not heartless. The Olteran Group belongs to Patrick and Vincent. Randall is Uncle Shawn's grandson, and the Olteran Group belongs to him too. But then Vera appeared. Cindy, I've been warned that I won't be allowed into the Olteran Manor if I'm not invited. You have to be careful."
