Chapter 577 Snowman
Vera and Molly were stringing up Christmas lights. "We're gonna light up the place for you," Vera said with a grin.
Randall shot back, "And what good is that gonna do?"
Outside, the wind was howling like crazy. The wall lights under the eaves were bright, casting long, overlapping
shadows on the ground. Patrick was busy making sure Vera could see the snowman. He even took off his coat
and got to work in the yard.
Teddy ended up in the butler's arms because Vera was all about decorating the Christmas tree!
So, Vera ran over to Patrick. "Babe, | need a lighter for the candles. Can | use yours?"
Before they got hitched, Vera used to ask Warren for a lighter. Now, it was Patrick.
Patrick patted his pockets but cup empty. He handed her the car keys. "Check the car, there might be one in
there." Sebastian kept calling Molly, but she wasn't picking up. He finally put down the phone and got back to his
night shift. Around this tlast year, she would've brought him dinner. But this year, Molly didn't seem to care
anymore.

The Chase family missed Molly since they had no kids around. "Molly doesn't even visit us," Zoey and Max
lamented.
Ellie chimed in, "Mom, enjoy the peace while it lasts. Once Molly and Sebastian get married next year, you won't
be able to get rid of her." Zoey and Max started to cherish their last few months of quiet.
Patrick, who was halfway through building a snowman, went to pick up the crying Theodore. Vera's fireworks had
scared him.
Teddy was bawling in Patrick's arms, feeling all sorts of upset.
After Vera had her fun, she remembered she had a son. She ran over to hold Theodore.
By eleven, the snowman was done, and the fireworks were over.
Molly pulled out her lipstick to give the snowman sred lips, and Vera used her eyeliner for the eyes.
"Molly, why isn't this working?" Molly asked, looking at her lipstick and then at the snowman's mouth.
Vera replied, "Maybe it's because the lipstick is dry."
She suddenly remembered a bottle of red ink in Patrick's study. "Molly, hang on. I'll get sink. It's easier to
draw with than lipstick." Without waiting for Patrick, Vera dashed off.
In no time, she was back with Patrick's ink. "Molly, chere, | got it!" she shouted excitedly.
Vera and Molly drew on the snowman together, and everyone in the yard laughed.
The snowman even had blush. Vera, holding Theodore, waved at Patrick. "Honey, cover here. Let's take a
family photo. This is my first snowman." Randall's hands were red from the cold. "Who actually built the
snowman?" he asked.
Patrick just wanted to snap a picture of them, feeling too shy to join in.
"Honey, con, let's take a family photo," Vera insisted.
Cindy urged him too, "Patrick, go ahead. Vera wants a picture. Join her and Theodore."
Molly added, "Patrick, go on. Vera really wants this."

Patrick, happily resigned, walked over and stood behind Vera. He put his arm around her shoulder, smiling
silently. Theodore was in Vera's arms, and the three of them took a warm family photo. Molly, who was great at
photography, took the picture.
Seeing Shawn wanting to join, Vera suggested, "Let's take a family photo together!"
Everyone agreed unanimously.
For the snowman, the whole family took photos outside for half an hour.
Molly noticed Sebastian had tried to reach her, so she quietly slipped out to call him back.
Randall had pictures from Susan on his phone, showing their dinner, which looked amazing. There was also a
message from Susan: [Randall, | made all of this.]
Cindy saw the family photo from earlier. Since Molly had feminized the snowman, she suggested, "If Patrick and
Vera have a daughter, having a son and a daughter would make a perfect family of four." Vera, having forgotten
the pain of childbirth, said, "Cindy, now that you mention it, | also want a daughter."
Patrick just smiled and said nothing.
