Chapter 86: Want to Know Her at Close Range
After Ted went out, Olive rubbed her forehead and thought that she didn't need him to remind her that Alan was interested in her. If Alan hated her, it would be better and she would not be so annoyed. Maybe she would be sad for a few days but then she would be fine.
But now Alan came back to find her again which seemed that the days in the future would not be peaceful.
Since she had been in this situation, she would take it easy.
But Ophelia, might be anxious now and wouldn't still stay in Jiangcheng.
She really didn't understand Alan, who obviously had a fiancee but still pestered her. He should know that the girl had told him many years ago that she would never accept a man who was not loyal to his family.
At the same time, after the waiter cleared the table and exited the room, Alan murmured slightly and pressed the shortcut button on his mobile phone. "Appoint Mr. Geve for me."
It had bee 7:30 in the evening when he met Mr. Geve.
Usually, at this time, Mr. Geve was accompanying his wife to have dinner, which was the habit he had maintained for many years. Knowing this, Alan didn't want to waste the time. When he sat down, he directly stated his purpose for this appointment. "Mr. Geve, the reason I make an appointment with you today is that I want to ask you for a person. You can propose any condition."
"What if I want to take back Hengdu?" Mr. Geve laughed. Hengdu was all his life's efforts. One saying said that "in the Changjiang River the waves behind drive on those before" and the waves before died on the beach. It was really that the youth should be regarded with respect.
If his son had half the abilities of this man, he would be gratified.
"No problem." Alan answered him without much consideration. She had not been there no longer, and Hengdu was useless to him.
"Young man, it's really the first time I've seen someone like you who has done business twice with the same person at a loss." Mr. Geve said that thoughtfully.
"I have said I only need one person." Alan repeated his purpose for this appointment.
Mr. Geve raised his eyebrows and said, "This person is more important than your business?"
"Yes." Alan answered very simply.
"You want Olive." Mr. Geve had heard what happened in the hotel In the afternoon. But by the time he heard it, the thing had been changed a lot. He needed to hear how the young man would explain.
"Yes." Alan said unequivocally.
"Olive is a good girl. I appreciate her very much. Before you bought Hengdu, I had specifically recommended her to you. But Mr. Hoyle, it seems that you could not make her stay there. Now you ask me for the person. I need a reason to convince me."
Alan said, "I wonder if Mr. Geve has heard about the unforeseen event of the Hoyle Group five years ago."
"I heard a little, but what does it have to do with Olive?" Mr. Geve was very confused.
"It was in that accident that I was hit by a car accident, which resulted in blindness. A girl saved me and took care of me for a year. But on the day of my recovery, she disappeared for no reason. I have been looking for her all these years." Alan said simply and plainly.
"You think that girl is Olive." Mr. Geve thought that he was a young man with a strong sense of affection and righteousness.
"Yes." Even if there are doubts still, he could basically affirm Olive was that girl. But he needed the evidence which could make her admit that.
Someday, he would make her admit it willingly.
This damn woman, wanted to play around with him. He would capture her bit by bit. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Mr. Geve said, "If I am right, Olive should not admit that she is the person you are looking for."
If she had admitted, there wouldn't be the storm at noon today.
"Yes." The woman still denied that but she would not admit it after a short time.
Mr. Geve laughed, "I know Olive. She is a kind girl. It is very likely for her to save a person. A few days ago, I fell down on the street and no passers-by dared to come forward. I was she who saved me. However, she will not casually admit something. According to her personality, she will admit what she has done. If she doesn't do something, she will not admit it at all. So, Mr. Hoyle, I think maybe it is you that misunderstand."
"No." Alan said firmly.
If at first it was only his impulsive intuition, but then the temptation, the inconsistency between her answers and the investigation, the attitude she avoided and the flaws she revealed, all of them made him begin to believe in his own judgment. The only doubt was the reason why she insisted on refusing to admit it.
Mr. Geve also asked, "Why does she deny that? Is it that she does good thing without leaving her name? I'm afraid it's not so simple."
"That's why I want to ask you for this favor."
"You want to know her at close range."
"Yes."
"But she doesn't want to be too close to you, or, in other words, you too close to her." If she was willing, she would not leave Hengdu.
"She can't wait to get away from me." Otherwise, how could she resign impatiently?
His words made Mr. Geve laugh out loudly, "It's interesting. Then, Mr. Hoyle, can I ask you a question?"
"Say it, please."
"You must answer me truthfully."
"OK." Alan looked at his inspecting eyes.
"Are you looking for Olive for you want to show your gratefulness for her or for some other emotion? As far as I know, you have a fiancee who has a similar family background. If you miss other woman, won't she be jealous?"
Alan was silent for a moment and sighed softly, "That's what she reminded me."
