The Innocent Wife of Scheming President

Chapter 408 Mrs. Hoyle's Contradiction

“Mom believes you.” Mrs. Hoyle took one of her hands to reassure her, then she turned her eyes to Olive sharply, “Miss Steele, this is really not what you’re supposed to say.”

It’s just that after she knew so many conspiracies, the old lady began to feel a little confused.

Olive shrugged, “Then just pretend I never say it.”

After she received Mrs. Hoyle’s comfort, Ophelia became confident, “Do you think you can destroy my relationship with my mom with just a few words? Dream on.”

Olive said, “Then you better not let Mrs. Hoyle wake up from the dream. Otherwise, she would be so disappointed.”

“You’re insane. Mom, let’s go.” Ophelia took Mrs. Hoyle’s arm, looking close.

Olive could no longer hold back her words, but it seemed like she couldn’t get rid of her.

Mrs. Hoyle had thought that if she didn’t maintain her composure to pull Ophelia away from here, she would need to lose her breath. She didn’t expect that the moment she came, she was agitated by Olive’s few words. Had Olive’s mouth turned smarter or had she pushed Ophelia’s right button that she felt annoyed?

But no matter what, the one thing she had to admit was that the Olive Steele now was different from five years ago.

When they hadn’t gone out from the office too far, there was a voice suddenly calling for them from behind, “Miss Meyer, you dropped something.”

The two turned their heads and saw Olive carrying a bag standing by the door with a smile.

Ophelia had deliberately forgotten her bag there, so that she could find excuse to cause trouble again. But it was clear that Olive didn’t give her the opportunity. She bitterly let go of Mrs. Hoyle’s arm, turned around to take back her bag. At the same time, she didn’t forget to say to Olive’s ears, “So what? Mom will never accept you.”

“Not so sure. After all, mothers don’t want to lose their sons in the end.” Olive smiled a little, and copied her posture as she said to Ophelia’s ears, “But, you can never call her mother-in-law too.”

What was the most lethal words? This was.

She had poke the sore spot and Ophelia’s face slowly changed from white to red, then from red to green, lastly from green to black. What a wonderful sight.

“Be safe.”

After they have left, Olive returned to her chair and sank deep, her brows were furrowing and she rubbed her forehead. She recalled that one glimpse before Mrs. Hoyle left, it was quite meaningful. But for a while, she couldn’t guess the meaning.

Was it a warning? Debatable. But she couldn’t think of anything else, which was really a headache.

Rou and Ted Dulles walked in and saw her frowning. They thought Mrs. Hoyle had embarrassed her, so Rou cautiously said, “Olive, if Mrs. Hoyle had said something, don’t put them in your heart and be annoyed by them.”

Olive shook her head, “I’m fine. But Rou, you fell so hard just now. Are you hurt anywhere?”

Rou was embarrassed, thinking that she had fallen in front of that woman like a frog. She had to have embarrassed Olive. Guiltily, she said, “I’m sorry, Olive. I really didn’t mean it.”

Seeing how nervous she looked, Olive felt amused, but she put on a stern face, “I’m not blaming you for eavesdropping, but, I’m curious when you were also be bought by Alan like Ted. It turns out I have so many spies around me.”

“Bought? Spies? Olive, you make it sounds awful.” Rou became unhappy and protected Alan, “Mr. Hoyle is also afraid that you’ll be harassed and bullied by them, so he asks us to watch for you a little. He cares about you and is worried about you. Don’t misunderstand him.”

“Alright, you little guardian.” Olive helplessly scold her a little. She didn’t say that Alan didn’t give her freedom. Look at her anxious appearance, “But Rou, next time you see Ophelia Meyer, don’t clash with her. She’s a person with a strong vengeance. Try to avoid her in the future.”

She couldn’t cause unnecessary troubles to others because of her. A reminder was necessary.

But Rou obviously hadn’t learned how to control her emotions. She even shouted, “But I just can’t get used to her arrogant appearance. Doesn’t she just have a rich father? If she doesn’t have him, can she still be so arrogant?”

“There are a lot of people we can’t understand in this world and there are many arrogant people. Impulsive tempers can’t solve a problem. It depends on this,” Olive pointed her own head.

Mrs. Hoyle, who had returned to her room, couldn’t help but criticize, “Ophelia, why are you getting more and more short-tempered?”

Ophelia cried, “Mom, Alan has married to other woman. How can you ask me to keep calm? His bride should be me and not that bitch, Olive Steele.” Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

The hideous expression on her face and her fierce aura stunned Mrs. Hoyle. Humans really had psychological effect. Once they were affected, their direction of judgements would be different. If this was the past, she would pity the child because she was overwhelmed by sadness, so intense emotions

were excusable things. But now, that fierce aura in her personality was suddenly magnified and the gap made her unable to bear it.

In the past, the old lady would always comfort Ophelia, but there was nothing today. The old lady was obviously not mentally with her, and she didn’t even look at her. Could it be that the old lady was really moved by that bitch Olive?

“Mom… Mom? What’s wrong?”

Mrs. Hoyle just realized that her emotion wasn’t concealed well. She caressed her chest without a trace and slowly bent over to sit down on the bed, “I’m fine. Pour mom a glass of water and take two more pills.”

“Okay.” Ophelia hurried, obviously already very familiar with these things. Although she had doubts in her heart, she didn’t dare to neglect her. After all, the old lady was her only card she could use to fight Olive.

After Mrs. Hoyle took the pill and drank water, her complexion looked much better.

“Ophelia, mom always thinks you’re a smart kid. But these past few times, you’ve made obvious mistakes, allowing Olive to gain the upper hand.” This was an indisputable fact, and the old lady didn’t want to deny it too that she herself hadn’t gotten any advantage from that woman.

“Mom, so what should I do now?” Ophelia was a little anxious.

Mrs. Hoyle frowned and rubbed her forehead, “Mom is just as worried as you are. Now it is impossible to face head-on. Alan protects her. The more we disturb her, the better Alan will treat her and the more he likes her. Maybe we should change another way, calmer.”

“Do you want me to just watch that woman get away? Mom, are you not going to help me too? Are you having a change of heart after Olive’s few provocative words? Can you not feel how I’ve treated you for the past few years?” Ophelia sobbed with pitiful appearance.

“What are you saying? If I don’t want to help you, would I sacrifice a mother’s relationship with her son? Ophelia, you’re a filial child. You’ve treated me well all these years. I always remember it. But, haste brings no success, do you understand?”

It was because she felt that the child treated her good. If one day she found out that everything was fake, it had be done with a purpose. She wouldn’t know how to accept it. Mrs. Hoyle felt more annoyed in her chest.

Although Ophelia was extremely unhappy, she had to admit that the old lady was penetrating towards their current situation. This was a fact that she had refused to admit but still existed. Haste brought no success. But she just couldn’t wait any longer.

Before, she felt that she had a solid ally, but now she wasn’t so sure. Although the old lady didn’t like Olive Steele, there was one thing that what Olive said was true. Mother couldn’t really be willing to lose their sons.

Therefore, in over time, the old lady was likely to change her mind for the sake of her sons’ submission, and then slowly accepted Olive. By that time, she would be alone. Olive was announcing that she would take all the chips in her hands. She wouldn’t let that bitch success.

“Then how long should we wait?”

Mrs. Hoyle sighed, leaning against the head of the bed, looking very tired. “I’m hoping the sooner the better too.”

There was an end to the matter and she was less worried. But it wasn’t the same case for the other person. In front of this child, who used to be a person she was able to talk to, she couldn’t say anything now. She closed her heart.

To this day, the old lady actually understood that her son’s heart couldn’t be reversed. And with those things, even if it was possible, it had become impossible.

If this child knew of his father’s conspiracy from the very beginning, then how real or fake was her love for Alan? The old lady was confused.

If she didn’t know what her father did, then over the years she had worked hard to match Ophelia with Alan—was it helping her or harming her?

What the old lady really wanted to say was, could you try to let of this relationship? Excessive obsession would only turn into a kind of crazy paranoia. The girl had a few more years of her youth. For years, her son didn’t have feelings for this child. They wouldn’t be happy if they were tied into a marriage together. And they wouldn’t be tied together.

It would be great if she understood this earlier.

Finn Meyer, Finn Meyer. It was a vain for her and her husband to treat him good back then. She didn’t expect him to be such an ungrateful person. They were blind.

Fortunately, Alan was aware of it and prepared for it. Thinking about it, it was indeed as what the little secretary had said, she had become old and was confused.

The confused old lady’s son came to pick up Olive very early. Rou enthusiastically greeted, “Mr. Hoyle, you’ve come to pick up Olive.”

Olive looked at the man sitting leisurely while drinking tea. She smiled, “People who don’t know the truth may really think that Hoyle Group is about to close down. What an idle boss.”

Alan stared at the floor, “In half a month, they will indeed hear the news of President Hoyle’s resignation.”

Because prevention came first. So when Olive heard that there would be such process, she didn’t feel it was sudden, but she was worried. But she also believed that every step he took was planned.
