The CEO's Mischievous Little Bride
Chapter 306 Need

Vera was pregnant and got into a fight with Noah, causing the baby to be in an unstable position. Patrick was terrified.

Vera explained, "I didn't know I was pregnant at the time. Noah took me to the hospital, and I didn't want to go. He had to push me into the car to bring me here. I thought it was just my period. If I had known I was pregnant, I definitely

wouldn't have fought with Noah."

Patrick said, "Vera, you really need to be taught a lesson."

Vera bargained, "I'm carrying your child now. Can you wait until I give birth before teaching me a lesson?"

Warren and Brianna arrived.

Brianna, in her forties, was still considered young among the group, but she was suddenly about to become a grandmother.

She found it a bit hard to accept, but Vera had been married for over half a year, so it was normal for her to be pregnant.

"Mom, Dad, you're here," Vera called out to Warren and Brianna.

Patrick turned to see Warren and Brianna and stood up to greet them, "Brianna, Warren, did Noah tell you?"

Noah glared at everyone in the room, his face dark.

At that moment, a nurse brought a wheelchair to take the patient to the ward.

Patrick said, "No need, I'll carry my wife."

Noah stepped forward, pushing Patrick aside. "If anyone is going to carry her, it's me. Patrick, you have a busy workload. You should return to work. My sister doesn't need you here." "I need him," Vera said softly.

After she spoke, Noah glared at her.

Vera lowered her head, not daring to look at Patrick.

Noah went to pick up Vera. He was thin and weak, and Vera worried he might hurt his arm or drop her.

She raised her hands and pointed at Patrick. "Honey, I want you to carry me."

Hearing this, Noah angrily left Vera and walked out of the room.

Warren quickly followed Noah, while Brianna remained by Patrick's side, accompanying her fragile daughter to the obstetrics ward.

Brianna, being a woman, knew the precautions for pregnancy. She stayed by Vera's side. "Patrick, go consult the doctor and hear their advice. I'll stay here with Vera."

Patrick put Vera down, covered her with a blanket, and gently reassured her, "I'll be right back."

Vera nodded.

After Patrick left, only Brianna and Vera were in the room. Brianna sighed and said, "I still feel young; how am I about to become a grandmother? Vera, how did you almost have a miscarriage?"

"I told Noah that my husband is Patrick. He didn't believe me and called me lazy and stupid, criticized my personality, and insulted my suitors. I couldn't take it anymore and fought with him. The doctor said I exerted too much force and got too emotional, which caused it. The doctor told me to control my emotions and not to fight anymore."

Brianna asked, "You've been pregnant for two months. Didn't you feel anything?"

Vera shook her head. "Mom, I really didn't feel anything."

"When your period was irregular, you should have paid attention."

Vera said, "Patrick is more attentive to my period than I am, but during winter break, I was just focused on having fun and didn't notice I missed my period."

Brianna was worried. How would she handle the later stages of pregnancy?

Patrick received a pamphlet from the doctor and listened carefully to the doctor's advice, almost memorizing it.

Noah talked with Warren outside for a long time. If he hadn't found out about Vera's pregnancy this time, he wouldn't have known how long he would have been kept in the dark. Noah felt a lot of pent-up emotions, his eyes slightly red.

"Vera didn't want you to carry her because she felt bad for you being so thin. She's worried about hurting your arm, and she's afraid of being jostled since she almost had a miscarriage."

"I remember when we talked about Patrick before, you had a good impression of him and admired him. Having someone like that as..."

Noah interrupted Warren, "From now on, I have no good impression of the Olteran family."

Forcing Vera to marry and have a child for the Olteran family, he had no good feelings toward them.

Warren and Noah talked outside for a long time. When they returned to the ward, Patrick was sitting beside Vera, holding her small hand with his large one and reading the pamphlet with his other hand.

He had read it several times but was worried he might miss something, so he kept reading.

Vera noticed Noah's slightly swollen eyes. The hand that Patrick was holding moved slightly in his palm. Then she said, "Honey, can you go home and get me a set of pajamas? Also, let Randall and Molly know I won't be able to go to school tomorrow."

Patrick understood Vera's intention and knew he wasn't in a good state to be here, so he said, "Okay."

Patrick left.

The room was now just the four of them.

Vera apologized, "Noah, I'm sorry I lied to you."

Noah, emotional again, with tears in his eyes, asked, "Why did you get married without saying a word? So what if we went bankrupt? If I couldn't go to school, then I wouldn't. Why did you have to use your marriage to pave the way for me?" "If I have the ability. I can get rich even by picking up trash. If I don't, even if you give me the company, I can still ruin it. Why couldn't you understand that?"

"You claimed it was for my good but didn't consult me. You imposed your so-called good intentions on me. You, Dad, and Mom all did."

No one in the room spoke.

Noah vented his frustrations, "Marriage is a lifelong matter. You kept it from me, making me miss the most important wedding of my life. You all lied to me, delayed me, and kept me in the dark, alone overseas for school. What's so great about being overseas?"

"Vera is immature, but you two are in your forties. Why are you so immature, too?" Noah asked Warren and Brianna.

"You made her sacrifice her marriage to save the company and leave it for me. Why did you do that?"

Vera said, "Don't blame Mom and Dad. They were prepared for bankruptcy. I agreed to the marriage. Besides, I didn't marry wrong. Patrick treats me very well and spoils me."

Mentioning Patrick, Noah immediately said, "Vera, tell him to get lost."

Vera replied, "He can't get lost. I'm already pregnant with his child."

The four of them sat in the room talking for a long time.

Patrick drove back home and saw Shawn and Molly watching a movie in the living room.

Molly selected an exciting movie and watched it with Shawn.

Randall was playing on the computer in his room. Cindy was getting ready to go out to get her hair done.

Patrick went upstairs to the walk-in closet to get a set of Vera's usual pajamas and her favorite slippers, putting them in a bag.

He also grabbed Vera's water bottle, toothbrush, and face wash.

Not knowing what skincare products to use, he called Molly downstairs, "Molly, come up here for a moment."

"Okay, Patrick, just a second."
