The CEO's Mischievous Little Bride
Chapter 548 The Morales Family's Son-in-Law

Talking about Randall, the whole fam was betting he wouldn't come back after dropping off Susan. Shawn couldn't help but joke, "Is he planning to spend Christmas with the Morales fam?" Just as he finished, they heard a car engine cut off in the front yard.

No doubt, it was Randall.

No one bothered to go out and greet him; they all just chilled inside, waiting for him to come in.

Two minutes later, Randall hopped out of the car and strolled into the living room. The front yard was dead quiet, with only the servants around, so Randall figured no one was home.

But when he walked into the living room and saw everyone lounging on the couch, including Teddy, he realized he was wrong.

Randall felt all eyes on him and leaned back a bit, feeling the pressure. He grumbled, "You guys didn't even come out to say hi. Just sitting here like statues."

Molly teased, "Isn't this the Morales family's son-in-law? What brings you home today?"

Vera chimed in, "What have you been up to these past few days?"

"I was dropping off Susan," he replied.

Vera pressed, "Did it really take that long?"

Randall plopped down on the couch and took the sleeping Teddy from Patrick's arms. He started counting on his fingers, "Susan had a class reunion, and I was the driver. Susan went to buy gifts for you all, and I was the driver. Susan and Sadie went for afternoon tea, and guess what? I was still the driver."

Vera raised an eyebrow and smirked, "A class reunion, huh."

Molly added, "Wow, you even dropped off your mother-in-law."

Cindy laughed, "Randall, you've never taken me out for afternoon tea." She wasn't really mad, just teasing.

Holding Theodore, Randall thought, 'I'm screwed, there's no way to explain this.'

Was he supposed to tell them that some of Susan's classmates had a crush on her and wanted to hit on her, but she was super annoyed and needed Randall to drop her off to scare them away?

A few days ago, Randall dropped Susan off at her house and saw the pond in the middle of the Morales family's courtyard. Randall pointed and said, "Susan, wasn't it there that you fell into the pond and yelled for help last time?" Susan replied, "Randall, let's not talk about embarrassing childhood stories. It's too humiliating."

"It's just the two of us in the car," Randall said.

Susan lowered her head. After that, Randall never went to the Morales family again; Susan directed him to the front yard for the rest of the way.

Sadie and Ulysses were already waiting for Susan at the door. When they saw Randall, they thanked him a ton.

Susan noticed that whenever Randall was outside, he acted like a total gentleman, with manners and speech just like Patrick.

Plus, Ulysses was a big fan of Patrick, so meeting Randall, who acted and talked a lot like Patrick, made him really friendly towards Randall.

Randall had this mix of youthful energy and young adult humility, which Sadie found kinda admirable.

After dropping off Susan and the gifts, Randall was about to head to a hotel. He planned to leave the next day, but Susan clung to him, "Randall, don't bounce so soon. Let me show you around my crib, okay?"

Randall tried to refuse, but Susan turned to Sadie and Ulysses, "Mom, Dad, when I came back, the Olteran family hooked you up with a bunch of gifts. You can't let Randall leave empty-handed. You gotta reciprocate."

Eventually, the Morales family invited Randall to stay, and he had no choice but to roll with it.

That evening, at Susan's enthusiastic invite, Randall joined her for a walk. He asked, "Happy now?" Susan nodded, "Yep, super happy."

"What's so great about keeping me here?" Randall asked.

Susan replied, "It just makes me feel good."

The next day, Randall was ready to bounce. But then, Susan's class reunion popped up.

"Randall, two guys in my class keep hitting on me. Can you drop me off and scare them away?" Susan asked.

Randall asked, "Do I look scary to you?"

Susan shook her head and looked at Randall's face, "You're more like, super handsome."

Randall asked again, "So, how am I supposed to scare them?"

Susan said, "Just pretend you're my brother and keep them from hitting on me."

Randall thought Susan was being childish. It felt like a second-grader calling her sixth-grade brother to scare off some bullies.

"What time's your reunion?" Randall asked, even though he wasn't thrilled about it.

In the afternoon, Randall dropped Susan off at the hotel entrance.

A bunch of people was already waiting for her.

Seeing Randall, they were all curious.

'Who is this dude? Why's he with Susan?' they wondered.

Randall got out of the car and checked out the group of young students.

"Susan, who is he?" the crowd asked, all curious.

Susan glanced at Randall, "He's Randall."

"Are you guys related?" Some of them openly stared at Randall, sizing him up.

Susan shook her head, "Nope, not related."

A boy nearby kept staring at Randall, and Randall followed his gaze to a guy in the crowd who was silently watching him.

'So, that's the dude chasing after Susan.' he thought.

Back in school, Molly and Vera's suitors often hated him.

Randall leaned against the car door and casually held Susan's hand, an action that seemed super intimate to others but felt normal to them.

In front of everyone, he said, "Susan, give me the list of all the guys at the reunion today. If anyone dares to hit on you, they'll go bankrupt." Susan was silent, and everyone else was stunned.

The boy who liked Susan spoke up, annoyed, "Who are you? You talk big."

"Randall from the Olteran Group," he revealed his identity to back up his words.

If anyone dared to hit on Susan, he had the power to bankrupt them.

After Randall dropped that bomb, there was a brief silence around them.

Susan had asked Randall to scare them off, but she really just didn't want him to leave so soon. As a result, he actually came to scare them, and he even scared her.
