The Innocent Wife of Scheming President

Chapter 466: A tender man

“For grandmother.”

“For grandmother?” Didn’t this little thing just say that she wouldn’t deliberately please the old lady? Then what did these flowers mean?

The little girl smiled sweetly and said, “Yep! But I didn’t have enough pocket money and can only buy one, and the other one was given to me by the florist auntie.”

Ada was a little bit confused about what was inside the little thing’s mind. Everyone said that adult world was the most complicated. Was it possible that the brain structure of a creature like children was also very special?

In the residence, Mrs. Hoyle had people prepared various snacks early in the morning. For some reason, she suddenly felt a little guilty after she said so heavy words to the child in Luo City.

In the past, she didn’t even bother to know anything about the child. But today, she was very interested in listening to Aoba telling her the little naughty girl’s fantastic and amusing stories. Each story stunned her.

“Is she as smart as you said? You’re not lying to make me happy, are you?”

Aoba chuckled, “Facts speak louder than words. You’ll find that this child is simply a child prodigy.”

Mrs. Hoyle never expected that when the child entered the door, she called her ‘grandmother’ sweetly and took out a small bouquet of gillyflower from her back, giving it to her.

“Did you teach her?”

“I don’t need to, it’s her own idea.” Ada laughed and told her the scene on the road again.

It really surprised Mrs. Hoyle to find a six-year-old child could have this thought. She asked a servant to find a vase and put the gillyflowers in. Then she smiled and asked Annie.

“How do you know I like these flowers?”

“Olive said that gillyflower is a mother’s flower. Every Mother’s Day and Luo City’s grandma’s birthday, as well as the first day of the New Year, Olive will personally select a bouquet of gillyflower for grandma. I’ll also use my New Year’s money to buy it for grandma in Luo City. And Jiangcheng’s grandmother, you’re dad’s mother. I give you flowers to thank you for giving a great daddy. But I don’t have much pocket money today, so I can only buy a few.” When the little girl said the last sentence, she blushed with embarrassment.

On her Mother’s Day or birthday, her children would also order their secretaries or call the flower shop to send a bouquet of this kind of flower to her. But in the end, it was give through other people and it was unlike this little girl’s two flowers. Although they were few and the packaging wasn’t gorgeous enough, it made her feel a different feeling in her heart.

Perhaps, she had really missed something?

When Alan was having a meeting in the conference room, Olive was sitting in his office. Taking advantage of this early time gap, she turned on the laptop that she carried with her and handled some emails and hotel affairs.

The moment Ivy pushed the door in, she was startled, “Why are you here?”

Ivy smiled, “Well, I’m also a minority shareholder of the Hoyle Group, so why can’t I come? Or, am I not welcomed?”

Olive pretended to be angry, “Look at what you said. Are you looking for Alan? He’s in a meeting now.”

“I know, I come to see you. How about we go out to find a place to sit?” Ivy suggested.

“Sure. Give me a minute.” Olive replied the last email and turned off the laptop. Pulling a blank paper from the printer, she left words for Alan and put it under the mouse.

The two of them sat in a café near Hoyle’s group and found seats by the window.

Ivy stirred the coffee in his hand, but his eyes looked out the window. The sunlight from June hit the wall of Hoyle Group’s building, reflecting a dazzling light.

“When I was young, my favorite thing to do was to take the three-stop bus when school was over and come here to wait for my father to get off work. At that time, he hadn’t bought a car yet. He obviously was a senior manager already, but he still rode a bicycle to work every day, saying that he could exercise. My mother died early, so my father was both a father and a mother. Because he was afraid that I would be treated bad, even though there were many women who pursued him, he had refused to remarry for me. No matter how hard he worked, he would always drive me to the market and buy my favorites. At that time, I thought, when I grew up, I could earn money to support myself and I must find a partner for my father. But unfortunately, he didn’t wait until that day.”

A deep sadness spread all over this man’s face. He had never told her a lot about his family and past. Olive suddenly didn’t know how to comfort him, “Ivy…”

“Do you see it? That window, the second one from the left on the 17th floor. He fell from there and died on the spot. That was my 18th birthday. He even promised me that morning that he would get off work and come home early to celebrate my birthday. He was such a cheerful person. He told me that an eighteen-year-old boy can date already and he wouldn’t object if I bring home a girlfriend. He was very honest. In the business field, someone wanted to give him a commission. He always acted according to the rules, so I never believe that he committed suicide to avoid punishment.”

Perhaps that the man at this time suddenly had a strong desire to talk and Olive didn’t say anything but just listened quietly, listening to him talk about the dusty past.

You would get sick if you held back your thoughts for a long time. Maybe, you would feel better after you said it.

Ivy said, “I really hated the Hoyle at that time. I thought they made my father be a scapegoat in order to escape from the crime. I even suspected that it was Albert Hoyle who murdered my father. I wanted to personally kill him, but Albert Hoyle unexpectedly died half a year later. Then the Hoyle experienced turmoil and they were fighting with themselves. At that time, I was thinking, this was the best way to defeat Hoyle Group. But a year later, Alan who disappeared, returned to Hoyle Group and turned the tide. Swiftly and resolutely, he kicked out a few uneasy elements and brought back Hoyle Group to the right track, developing it even better than when it was in his father’s hands. Olive, you’re truly right about this person.”

Olive was taken aback, “Why do you involve me again?”

“Because I’ve always been angry with him for my father’s death. Over the years, I’ve actually stabbed Hoyle Group in the back. But Alan Hoyle told me, the hatred was old scores of the previous generation and there was no need to leave it to the next generation. I suddenly felt that his heart was much wider than mine. To be honest, if I were Alan Hoyle and knew that Finn Meyer had done so many unforgivable things to the Hoyle Family, I would immediately personally end him, instead of letting any law try to judge him, so that he could still live a few more days.”

“But are the results different?”

With Finn Meyer’s crimes which were murdering and selling goods, smuggling and trafficking, they were enough to give him a death sentence.

Ivy chuckled, “Maybe. Everyone thinks differently.”

“Have you investigated about your father’s matter?” Olive asked carefully. Alan never told her about the truth. He just told her that everything would pass.

“Yes. I’ve wronged Alan and his father.” It was just that he could no longer kill his enemies personally. He paused and smiled, “So, I fulfill my promise and be friends with him. It’s just that he didn’t expect me to give him 15% of the capital that I have in my hand. Go back and tell him that I’ll use Sean Davis’s real name to represent my father and return to Hoyle Group. He doesn’t need to give me another position, just return my father’s seat to me.”

“Sure. As long as you don’t become enemies, he’ll do anything what I said.” Olive was very happy that the two men could shake hands and make peace. “Or, let’s have lunch together. Right, where’s Dave? He should have come to Jiangcheng too. Invite him too.”

“Next time. There’ll be opportunities in the future. He’s now asking about some investigations results as the police station. He just called to ask me picking him up and taking him to the airport. This man is going to be a father soon. You guys just wait for red envelopes.”

This shocking news stunned Olive. “Seriously? Then when will he marry Xenia? He can’t let her give birth to a child out of wedlock.”

Ivy laughed, “This man is crazily happy now. Isn’t he hurrying back to propose Xenia now?”

It turned out that two hours ago, Dave Chou, who had just arrived at the police station, suddenly received a call from Xenia. This woman didn’t say anything, she just cried and cried. After she cried, she directly hung up the call.

Dave was confused and worried. So he quickly called her back.

At first, Xenia didn’t pick up. It was only after his fourth call that she picked up and her crying had become a sob.

If this was in the past, Dave would be very annoyed when a woman cried. He would think that she was the most terrifying creature in the world for bursting into tears.

But since he met Xenia Boswell, he had been completely out of touch. Her cries made him feel distraught. A rough man became as soft as water.

“Xenia, don’t cry. Did someone bully you? Tell me, I’ll go home immediately to kick their butt for you.”

Xenia roared on the phone, “Kick yourself on the butt. Dave Chou, I hate you so much.”

“Hey, didn’t you say that you like me last night? Why do you suddenly hate me? Baby, you can’t change your heart so quickly, I’ll be sad.”

“I hate you, I hate you, I hate you, I hate you, I hate you, I hate you, I hate you so much.”

A string of hates was said through her gritted teeth. Dave could even hear the sound of stomping feet over there, as if she was going to step on him to break his bones.

“Okay, okay. Fine that you hate me. But baby, you have to give me a reason why you hate me. Didn’t we already say that we won’t mention the past anymore and start again? It’s only been a few days, so why are you saying you hate me again? Or is it because I do something not good enough that it makes you angry? Tell me and I’ll change. Okay?”

There was indeed a big gap in their age difference, but he still needed to coax his girl.

“Dave Chou, I’m only 22 and you’ve made me pregnant with your child. You’re an old man already but lack of virtue. My beautiful youth is destroyed by you. I haven’t even enjoyed my life enough, but you make me pregnant. Why are you so heartless? You just think about your heir, right? Have you ever

thought about me? I’m so young and will soon become a faded old woman…” The more Xenia talked, the guiltier she felt. The more she talked, the angrier she got. She cried again, “Dave Chou, I don’t want this child. I want to get rid of him.”

Dave would be really anxious for the next week, “No. Let’s talk about this. Let’s talk slowly. Slowly, okay? Don’t be impulsive, okay?”NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
