The CEO's Mischievous Little Bride
Chapter 74 He Likes You

Since meeting Vera, he had always been the compromising one.

Regarding agreements, he compromised.

Regarding moving, he compromised.

Regarding changing majors, he compromised.

Secret marriage, he compromised again!

The principal received another call from Patrick. "Mr. Olteran, do you have any important instructions?"

Patrick glanced at Vera across from him and instructed the person on the phone. "Keep Vera being my wife a secret." "Yes, understood."

After hanging up, Patrick asked Vera in front of him. "Are you satisfied this time?"

Vera glanced to the side, pouted, nodded. "It's okay."

Patrick found her tsundere attitude adorable; he looked at Vera's profile and laughed heartily.

Vera glanced at him, noticing his smile, feeling a bit nervous. "What are you laughing at?"

"I'm laughing at your boldness. So far, you're the first person to storm into my office and scold me."

"Who made the mistake? Why wouldn't I scold you? Besides, scolding my own husband isn't a crime." Patrick nodded. "Indeed."

In a marriage, who hadn't had arguments?

With Vera's matters resolved, she felt uncomfortable sharing a room with Patrick at the company. She rushed to the office door, not looking back, and said to Patrick, "I'm leaving, goodbye." After speaking, she ran out.

With Patrick's instructions, Vera quickly processed the paperwork to change her major at school.

Randall also eagerly went to change his major, but the teacher politely replied in the end, "Sorry, Randall, Mr. Olteran still doesn't agree to your transfer."

Randall asked, "Why not? Vera could do it."

The teacher looked at Vera and thought to himself, 'Has Vera gained approval from the Olteran family?'

Feeling good about the situation, Vera completed the paperwork and headed to the classroom to report.

Randall grabbed her seeking advice, "How did you convince Uncle Patrick?"

Vera said, "I went to his office and scolded him."

Randall asked, "Can you give me a more normal way to handle this?"

Vera said, "I really scolded Patrick a few times before he agreed to my major change. You should try it, sometimes you need to take a chance. Maybe if you scold him, you won't fear him anymore. But maybe the result will be Mia and I visiting your grave next year."

"Vera, are you not feeling guilty about suggesting this plan?"

Vera shook her head. "No, I feel quite at ease."

On the way out, Randall lamented while Vera and Mia laughed heartily.

Finally, their triangle was complete again.

With the paperwork done and smoothly enrolled, the principal called Patrick to report the matter.

After hearing the news, Patrick, in a good mood, thanked the principal.

After clearing up the misunderstanding with Vera, he no longer felt condemned by his conscience.

She was his wife from the start, with no relation to Randall. He no longer hesitated to kiss her at night.

Patrick was in an extremely good mood.

He even wanted to personally pick up Vera after school.

He texted Vera: [What time do you finish school this afternoon? I'll come pick you up.]

Looking at the message, Vera bit her lip. "Mia, help me analyze something. Patrick seems a bit off. Listen to what I have to say, and then see if he might have multiple personalities as rumored."

Randall also leaned in. "Let me listen too, he's my uncle after all, I'm sure I can offer more advice than Mia."

Vera nodded, and the three of them huddled together as Vera pointed out all the recent oddities about Patrick.

She raised her phone for them to see. "He's coming to pick me up after school. Why am I so afraid?"

After hearing this, Mia and Randall both said, "Patrick likes you; he is jealous."

Vera shook her head, instinctively denying, "Impossible; why would he be jealous? We have no relationship."

"You're already married. If he's not jealous, why would he send Randall to a Latin dance class? If he's not jealous, why would he prevent you from changing majors, then immediately allow it after the misunderstanding, and let Randall stay in Class Three to serve his aunt? Vera, is Patrick interested in you?" "Yes! I told you Patrick is interested in Vera. She didn't believe me before, but now that Mia says it, do you believe it?" Randall exclaimed excitedly, as if his tail had been stepped on like a monkey.

Hearing their words, Vera's heart fluttered. "No way."

Her cheeks flushed with embarrassment.

Mia was surprised. "Vera, I never expected that you would win the affection of such a difficult man so soon after getting married."

Randall added eagerly, "Vera probably captured Uncle Patrick's heart with her looks. He likes this kind of innocent girl who knows nothing about the world. It's normal for him to be interested in her. Besides, he is not young anymore; he hasn't had any sexual experiences, and Vera is so beautiful, lying by his side all day. If he's not impotent, he would have given in long ago."

Vera glanced at Randall smoothly. "Would you dare to let him hear these words?"

Randall immediately backed down.

He kept his mouth shut.

Vera looked down on him.

Mia said, "I think Randall makes sense. You're young and beautiful; you wouldn't be the campus belle if you weren't good-looking. Men are visual creatures, I think Patrick might have taken a liking to you, especially considering your marital relationship, it's normal for him to have thoughts about you."

Vera thought about the subtle interactions between her and Patrick, feeling that something was off. Suddenly she asked, "Can you smell a fragrance on me?"

She extended her arm for them to smell.

Mia and Randall shook their heads. ;"No, what's wrong?"

Vera then thought about Patrick kissing her. "Mia, can you tell me if my mouth smells?"

They shook their heads again. "Could it be that Patrick likes your bad breath and body odor?"

"It's not that. He always says I smell good, and asks me what shampoo, toothpaste, and body wash I use, but I use odorless ones."

Mia was astonished. "So you've kissed Patrick!"

Randall looked at her, "Have you and Uncle Patrick already had a sexual relationship?"

Vera interrupted their wild thoughts, "No, stop speculating. I just can't figure out why he always says I smell good when I don't." After feeling frustrated, Patrick called her.

They both held their breath, never feeling this nervous when answering a teacher's call.

Vera picked up the phone. "Hello."

Patrick asked, "Did you see the message I sent you just now?"

"I was busy just now and didn't see it. Do you need something?" Vera listened to his voice, recalling Mia and Randall's confident words. When she answered the call again, she did so with shyness.
