The CEO's Mischievous Little Bride -
Chapter 71 Questioning Her Husband's Absence for Several Days
On the first day of school, Vera carried her backpack and went to the Dean's Office to start changing her major.
Mia personally accompanied Vera to handle the procedures.
Randall also saw Mia, and as soon as they met, Mia and Vera started to smirk.
Mia asked Randall, "Little swan, how's your practice going?"
Randall gritted his teeth. "Mia, Vera, I really haven't been blessed by God to be with you again."
Vera wanted to change her major, and Randall wanted to change classes.
But when they arrived at the Dean's Office, the teacher told them, "One of you can't change majors, and the other can't change classes."
A leader had specifically instructed this, and it was directed at them by name.
Mia said, "Teacher, are you mistaken? During the summer, Vera's enrollment clearly transferred to the Business School. I still have the transfer certificate on my phone, signed by two deans. Why is it not valid now?"
The teacher at the Dean's Office did not verify further but replied, "Your family members do not agree to your change of major. Maybe you should discuss it with them first."
Vera frowned and questioned the teacher, "My parents haven't interfered with my decisions since I was eighteen. Teacher, if you're lying, at least come up with a decent reason."
Randall also said, "Yeah, I can vouch for her words, but why can't I change classes?"
The teacher smiled and said, "You should go ask your Uncle Patrick. Patrick is a major shareholder of our school, and we dare not disobey him."
Patrick rarely intervened in Randall's school life. Randall was already treated well at school just because his father held a high position, and people around didn't even know what position his father held. If they found out he was Patrick's nephew, he would attract some unsavory friends at school.
So Patrick and Vincent never let Randall enjoy the privileges his status brought.
This time, it was the first time Patrick intervened in Randall's affairs.
The reason was surprisingly because of Vera.
When Patrick mentioned this incident while dining with the school leaders, everyone was shocked.
Randall's father turned out to be the mayor of Zandonick, and his uncle was the king of the business world, Patrick!
The principal was so shocked that he almost spilled his drink.
Upon returning, the principal immediately adjusted Randall and Vera's enrollment according to Patrick's instructions.
Those involved in this incident also learned about Randall's identity.
They started showing him more respect.
Randall began to feel uneasy.
He looked at Vera, about to ask her if Patrick had intervened, but he noticed Vera's furrowed brows.
Perhaps she also suspected Patrick's involvement.
Vera asked the teacher at the Dean's Office, "Was it also Patrick who intercepted my transfer certificate?"
The teacher nodded to Vera.
They were puzzled. It was understandable that Randall, as Patrick's nephew, couldn't change classes or majors. But why did Vera, just an ordinary student, have to face such unnecessary management? Not knowing Vera's background, they didn't show her much respect.
Vera slammed the documents on the table and left the Dean's Office.
"Vera, where are you going?" Mia called out.
Vera had arrived at school early in high spirits, looking forward to the new semester, meeting old friends, and feeling excited.
However, upon arrival, everything turned out to be false.
Her beautiful dream was shattered by Patrick.
Of course, she had to go to the Olteran Group to confront Patrick.
If necessary, she was ready to even fight him.
Mia couldn't catch up with Vera. Later, she returned to the Dean's Office, took the documents from the table, and said to Randall, "Let's follow Vera."
"Follow her for what? She's going to settle scores with Uncle Patrick. I'm afraid of her fiery temper. I don't know who would be tougher in a fight between her and Patrick," Randall said carelessly.
After they left, the teachers at the Dean's Office discussed Vera and Randall's identities with suspicion.
The surrounding teachers loved gossip, saying, "I guess the Olteran family's young master and the school belle are in love. They wanted to switch to the same class to be together, but Mr. Olteran found Vera unsuitable for Randall, so he firmly opposed them studying in the same class."
Another teacher was puzzled, "Really? Who is the school belle?"
The teacher speaking handed her phone over to show the top-ranked image of Vera.
In the picture, Vera had a smiling face, representing sweetness.
She had bright eyes and white teeth; her eyes were like stars.
Her fair skin, untouched by makeup, her delicate and charming appearance, made her attractive.
She wasn't stunningly beautiful, but rather someone pleasant to look at.
At first glance, she seemed pleasing, but with each subsequent look, one couldn't help but admire her smile.
Vera topped the rankings, with a consistent ratio of votes from both men and women.
She was truly deserving of the top spot.
After seeing her picture and the votes, the surrounding teachers said, "This classmate looks quite pretty. So, she's dating Randall, right?"
"It's pity. she's out of luck. The Olteran family doesn't approve of her."
Someone else added, "Are you talking about Vera from the School of Architecture?"
"Yes, do you know her?"
Later, another teacher chimed in, saying, "I've heard of her. Her family also runs a sizable company, and she's from a wealthy background, so her status should be good."
"No matter how big her family's company is, it probably can't compare to the Olteran family's. Think about it, the Olteran family only has Randall as their grandson, and he's supposed to marry a princess in the future. Everyone thinks she's not up to their standards. A typical wealthy girl may not be appealing to the Olteran family."
"That makes sense. No wonder Mr. Olteran intervened in Randall's affairs and now in Vera's too."
The crowd continued to gossip as Vera arrived at the Olteran Group by taxi.
She barged in and ran straight to the receptionist, asking, "Which floor is Patrick's office on?"
"Madam, do you have an appointment?"
Vera replied, "No."
"Sorry, madam, you can't see Mr. Olteran without an appointment."
Vera took out her phone and said, "I'm making an appointment now."
She dialed Patrick's number, and after three rings, Patrick's voice came through. "Hello, what's up?"
Vera clenched her teeth, "Honey, I need to see you, do we need an appointment? Let's schedule a time now, I'm in the lobby downstairs."
The receptionists were dumbfounded!
They were shocked to hear this girl in front of them calling their CEO what?
Honey?
Patrick glanced at his watch. It was the day she started school, and it seemed she already knew everything. "I'm busy. Let's talk when I get home from the evening event."
"Go home? Honey, it's been a few days since you've been home. Can I catch you at home?"
