Chapter 564 Hacker

Molly glanced over at Vera, who was soothing Theodore while scrolling through her phone. "Vera, put that thing

down," she said.

"Why should I? Everyone's saying such nice things about you, calling Theodore cute, and even complimenting

me. | gotta see it," Vera shot back.

Vera knew what was bugging Molly. "I only worry about Theodore's photos getting out there. Since there aren't

any online, what's the big deal?"

Molly had seen the comments and couldn't stomach them all. Vera's chill attitude reminded her of when the

forum trashed them. Vera didn't care then either and even comforted her and Randall. Speaking of Randall, Molly

suddenly noticed he was missing. "Vera, where's Randall?"

Vera put her phone down. "No clue."

Meanwhile, in the Olteran family living room, Randall had just walked in.

Cindy was waiting for him. She grabbed his shoulder and demanded, "Where have you been? Did you see the

news online?"

Randall stumbled a bit. "Yeah, | saw it. How could | miss it?"

He shook off Cindy's grip. "I was at your café all afternoon, using two computers to comment back. My fingers

are killing me." He even showed Cindy his cramped fingers. "Your staff can backup." Cindy gave him a look.

"Why do | always feel like you're useless?"

Molly and Susan were fiercely defending themselves online, and Cindy admired their righteousness and

straightforwardness. But knowing Randall was also online made her uneasy.

Randall awkwardly pulled his hand back. "You might look down on me, but I'm your only son, and you can't

replace me."

Cindy raised her hand to smack him, but he quickly dodged, using his height and long legs.

"Why did you even cback?" Cindy fumed.

Randall grinned. "To eat."

Cindy was even more annoyed.

Vincent had just chfrom work and saw Randall bugging Cindy. He calmly walked over and gave Randall

a slap on the back, which seemed to calm Cindy down a bit. Randall was stunned. "Dad, you sucker-punched

a

Vincent, pleased with himself, laughed. "You're in your twenties and still annoying your mom?"

Seeing Vincent back her up, Cindy laughed too.

Vera and Molly were about to cdownstairs and saw Cindy's family of three interacting. Vera said, "It'd be

awesif my family could get along like this in twenty years." Molly bluntly replied, "Their roughhousing is just

fun. You guys 'roughhousing'? That's more like a brawl, right?"

Vera looked down at Theodore, who had just woken up and was yawning adorably. "Patrick and | don't plan to let

him learn boxing."

Molly teased, "Whether he learns or not doesn't matter. The genes alone are enough."

Soon, it was dinner time.

Patrick emerged from the study, and they all headed to the dining room together.

Teddy had just woken up and, in no time, had been passed from Vincent to Cindy, and finally, Shawn got a turn

holding him. When Patrick cdown, he went straight to Shawn at the head of the table and silently took

Theodore. Theodore, back in Patrick's arms, was so happy he started waving his limbs like crazy, as if he was

afraid of being ignored.

Patrick sat down, looking tenderly at Theodore.

Randall noticed the ring on Molly's hand and teased, "Molly, wow, your diamond is bigger than Vera's."

Shawn immediately zeroed in on Molly's finger. "What's that!"

Molly quickly hid her left hand behind her back, her eyes narrowing at Randall. "Randall, are you trying to ruin

your life?"

Randall gave their rings a disdainful look. "I just think you guys are ridiculous."

Vera, sitting across from Randall, chimed in, "Then don't bother getting one for Susan in the future."

Randall scoffed. "Susan wouldn't care about these. Wait, who said | was getting one for Susan?"

Molly smirked. "If you don't, Susan won't mind. Don't you know she has a very impressive male friend now?"

Randall's expression shifted, his thick eyebrows furrowing. He quickly tried to play it cool but couldn't hide a hint

of concern. "No way. Susan barely has any female friends, let alone male ones. You're making this up." "This

afternoon, Alexis got caught with the help of Susan's friend. | asked, and Susan said her friend is a guy and a

skilled hacker," Molly said.

Randall's concern seemed to vanish.

Molly, not satisfied with Randall's reaction, decided to push further. "Just wait, Susan won't be your wife in the

future. She'll marry that guy, and you'll regret it." Patrick, holding Theodore, looked up, his deep eyes watching

Randall, waiting for his reaction.

Randall shrugged it off.

Molly frowned, puzzled, and glanced at Vera. Why was Randall acting so indifferent? Could it be he didn't like

Susan?

Vera, resting her chin on her hand, looked at the indifferent Randall, also unsure of his reaction. She couldn't

believe Randall had no feelings for Susan.

Vera guessed wildly and finally tentatively asked, "Randall, is it you who's Susan's hacker friend?"

Having known Randall for over ten years, Vera knew him well.

But she didn't know the extent of Randall's abilities.

Randall's pupils contracted instantly, and he fell silent.

The Olteran family dining table fell into silence.

As everyone stared at Randall, only Patrick's gaze shifted towards Vera.

A few seconds later, Cindy broke the silence. "He's a hacker? Vera, have you ever seen a useless person become

a hacker?"

Shawn also didn't buy it. "He can't even beatat video games. How could he be that hacker?"
