The CEO's Mischievous Little Bride by Whispering Willow

Chapter 231 Slept in Separate Rooms Vera raised her hand and slapped Patrick on the arm out of anger.

She asked, "Patrick Olteran, make yourself clear. Did you really stop likingafter marrying me?" Patrick replied, "I like obedient ones, not ones who secretly buy spicy food behind my back." "So will you divorceif I'm not obedient? Answer me." Patrick realized he had upset Vera again and softened his tone slightly. "I definitely won't divorce you. I put lots of efforts to finally marry you." Vera felt wronged, complaining, "You just said you like obedient ones. If I'm not obedient, you won't likeanymore." Patrick realized their roles were about to reverse again, so he immediately paused and began to change the situation.

He pinched Vera's cheeks with both hands, asking, "Vera, why are you so disobedient? Who was it that cried and rolled into my arms at night, beggingto supervise her not to eat spicy foods?" Vera stammered, "I, um..." How should she argue her way out of this? She continued, "Honey, what women say is generally not trustworthy." Patrick asked, "So what you just said about lovingisn't trustworthy either?" Oh no, Vera fell into his trap.

Vera said, "Honey, I'll listen to you from now on." Patrick said, "Swear that if you don't listen, you'll fail your classes this year." Vera retorted, "No way!" She glared at Patrick angrily. It was too malicious to threaten a college student with failing classes if she disobeyed! Vera refused to swear.

What if she disobeyed again in the future? Patrick cupped Vera's face with both hands, squeezing all the flesh to the front, making her lips smaller and her nose scrunched up.

Vera asked, "Honey, what are you doing?" Patrick replied, "You don't even dare to swear. How can I trust you?" "Your oath is too serious. I don't think it's necessary to say something so severe." Patrick realized Vera was driving him crazy.

In the end, Vera didn't care anymore and refused to swear.

Concerning whether Vera would fail or have to retake classes, she gritted her teeth, thinking she couldn't make a rash oath.

"Honey, I think you're just picking onbecause you're irritable and have no other outlet." With that, Patrick pressed Vera against the door. He couldn't bear to hit her, nor could he bear to scold her. He finally found a way to deal with her, but now he couldn't even lay a hand on her.

He asked, "Vera, did you makeangry first, or am I abusing my power?" Vera replied, "Half and half." Patrick let go of Vera. "I'll sleep in the study tonight." Vera asked, "Are you so angry that you're sleeping in separate rooms?" Patrick was speechless.

Later, Patrick went to the study, and Vera followed him there.

Patrick went downstairs to get water, and Vera followed him.

Patrick went to the bathroom, and Vera stood guard at the bathroom door.

"Stop following me. Go back to sleep." Patrick pointed to the bedroom door, telling Vera to go back. Vera took a step forward and tugged at Patrick's shirt. "Honey, cback to sleep with me." Patrick replied, "Letcool down and see if there's something wrong with how I'm educating you." Vera said, somewhat embarrassed, "Honey, there's nothing wrong with your education. It's my parents who didn't educatewell. Don't get mad at yourself." She said this while soothing Patrick's chest. Patrick said, "Your parents entrusted you to me, so I have a responsibility, too." Later, Patrick escorted Vera to the bedroom and then turned to leave.

Vera watched him leave, standing in the bedroom, her eyes darting around.

She didn't know if her next move would completely infuriate Patrick or bring him back.

Randall was sleeping when someone knocked on the door.

Randall woke up, yawning as he went to open the door. "Who is it?" When the door opened, he saw Vera standing there.

Randall's sleepiness immediately vanished, and he was about to close the door.

However, Vera was quicker, immediately blocking the door with her leg. "Randall, doa favor." "No." Vera said again, "Just run an errand for me." "No." "Then you can forget about sleeping tonight. I'm not going to sleep anyway." Vera stood at the door, determined to hold Randall hostage.

Randall, annoyed, opened the door and looked at Vera, who was asking for a favor but had no attitude of asking for one. "What do you wantto do?" Vera said, "Just go tell your uncle that I'm scared in the middle of the night and can't sleep, and I insist on playing video games with you all night. Ask him to cand take care of me." Randall: "Vera, are you out of your mind?" Vera reminded him, "Remember to go to the study to find him. I made him so mad he went to the study." "He doesn't want to sleep with you tonight?" Vera nodded. "So you know why I'm here. To deal with Patrick, I have to do something even more infuriating to suppress his anger." So, on top of secretly buying Spicy Chicken Ramen, Vera planned to make Patrick jealous.

Randall gave Vera a thumbs-up. "Amazing logic." Randall, feeling playful, really went to Patrick's study and knocked on the door.

Patrick's voice cfrom inside. "Go back to sleep." Randall said, "Uncle Patrick, it's me. Vera wouldn't knock so politely." Patrick thought so, too, so he said, "Cin."

Randall walked in, leaving the door ing vera just open, and relayed Vera's message to Patrick, "Vera just cto my room insisting on playing video games withall night. You should go get her." Patrick asked, "She went out again?" "Yes, she's sitting in my room right now." Randall pointed in the direction of his bedroom.

Patrick was about to get up but suddenly remembered Vera's scheme.

After a few seconds, Patrick said to Randall, "Let her go if she wants. I'm not dealing with it." Randall said, "Con, Uncle Patrick. If she doesn't leave, I can't sleep tonight." Patrick replied, "Sleep in a guest room." Randall was speechless.

He went back and relayed the message to Vera.

"What, he's not going to deal with me?" Vera was surprised.

Randall nodded. "This trick isn't working. You should go backsleep. Maybe if you behave for a few days, my uncle will be fine."

Vera shook her head. "No way, Randall, run another errand for me. Tell him 'roplanning to sleep in your bed." Randall complained, "You are really out of your mind." So, Randall, enjoying the , went to relay the message again.

"Uncle Patrick, Vera plans to sleep in my bed. What are you going to do?" Patrick's breathing becheavy, and he said, "Leave her alone!" Randall saw that Patrick was so angry, so he quickly retreated.
