The Innocent Wife of Scheming President

Chapter 538: Just a pawn

Olive sneered in her heart, as Susan already had some doubts about her, so how could Susan trust her? But Olive hasn't changed her face at all. "Susan, I'm only doing this to protect Angel Holiday Hotel from being used by malicious people."

This time, the implication of her words made Susan look a little pale. "Sister Olive, do you think I'm up to something against Angel Holiday Hotel? If you don't want to give up power, you can tell me directly, while you don't have to play jokes on me so deliberately."

They talked so loudly that Norton, who has just arrived at the door, heard Susan's last words very clearly.

"Susan, why do you say that?"

"Dad, Olive just insulted me, as she said I wanted to do something bad to Angel Holiday Hotel." When Susan met Mr. Gove, she pretended to be wronged.

Olive was speechless, looking at the ceiling. Was Susan starting to make mischief?

"How can that be? There must have been a misunderstanding in your communication." Norton was busy being a peacemaker, while he could not understand how the two of them could quarrel in the blink of an ey tell me why she didn't approve of my investment." Susan said to him in a tone of discontent.

"I don't want to say it again. Uncle Geve, if you trust me, you'll leave the decision of this matter to me." What Olive said sounded forced.

Norton frowned, as he heard something unusual. "Olive, I believe in you so much, otherwise I wouldn't dare give you full control of Angel Holiday Hotel without a consultant, so what do you think?"

Susan looked hurt. "So you don't believe me, Dad?"

"How can you say that?" Norton said to Susan, slightly reproachfully, and then he reassured her. "I know you want to make a difference as soon as you take the job, and you mean it, but Olive is also thinking about the future of Angel Holiday Hotel. In fact, the hotel went from loss to profit only after Olive took over, so she knows more about how to run Angel Holiday Hotel than you or even me."

Susan took in every word he said, and it was obvious what he meant, as Olive's decision was his decision.

Back at the Geve Family, Susan threw her bag on the couch and sat down to the side slowly.

Lory noticed Susan's problem, so she asked Susan with concern. "What's the matter? Something's wrong with your work?"

"No, I'm just tired." Susan forced a smile.

Norton walked in behind her, chuckling as he perched on his carefully polished dragon head walking stick. "Oh, she's angry with me."

"Dad, I wasn't." Susan quickly replied. If she's showing too much emotion, that's not a good thing. Mr. Geve's trust in Olive was harder to break than she thought.

"You weren't? You got out of the car and then you came in first without waiting for me, and you said you weren't angry with me? You just look angry." Norton grinned as he sat down beside her, took one of her hands, and put it on his lap. "Susan, do you think I'm not on your side on this?"

Susan shook her head. "Dad, I don't blame you, as I know you have your thoughts, and you are right."

"Then why are you sulking?"

"When I first started working at Angel Holiday Hotel, I felt a bit tied up, and my subordinates don't follow me very well either. I wonder if I made a mistake coming back, as Angel Holiday Hotel is very profitable

under Olive's management, while my presence seems redundant."

"Silly girl, how can you think so? Angel Holiday Hotel is yours sooner or later, so the power will gradually be transferred to you. Olive has a lot of talent and Alan is her husband, so it's only a matter of time before she's going to go after something higher. If you feel too lonely all by yourself, you might ask William to come and help you. I think he is quite proficient in the management of the catering department. Therefore, if Angel Holiday Hotel's catering department has him, I believe that Angel Holiday Hotel will develop better."

Norton's idea was simple since Angel Holiday Hotel would be handed over to his daughter sooner or later, so it would be nice to have his daughter assisted by his future son-in-law.

"But I don't think Sister Olive wants to give up any power, so why would she let William work in the catering department?"

Susan said something under her breath, but Norton heard her so clearly that he laughed. "Olive is very responsible for Angel Holiday Hotel, as she definitely has a lot of affection for Angel Holiday Hotel, so she's doing this because she wants Angel Holiday Hotel to develop very smoothly, so you have to understand her decision. As for William, I'll talk to her and she'll agree, so you don't have to worry. I was afraid your William was too used to being boss to condescend to work at Angel Holiday Hotel."

"No, he's also looking for a job right now, so he'd be a fool not to take such a good job." She had the idea to let William into Angel Holiday Hotel, but she didn't find the opportunity. Now it's good that Mr. Gove brought it up on his own initiative, and it seemed like a godsend for her.

"Then let's make it that way. You'll be in charge of convincing William, while I'll be in charge of convincing Olive." Norton had other plans, as he was very concerned about his daughter's life, so he would have to take a closer look at the man named William. If William was suitable enough to marry his daughter, he would urge them to marry early.

"Dad, why do you trust Sister Olive so much? Is there a special story?" Susan looked curious because she felt that the trust between people must be established through something or some kind of connection.

When it came to his trust in Olive, Norton sometimes felt a little confused. "I don't know why, but I just had a hunch. Ever since I first met Olive years ago, I've had a special feeling for her. At that time, she was very young, and she was a novice in the workplace, so she didn't even know how to negotiate with clients, but I think she will be a rare talent after time and practice. Well, Olive has never let me down."

"Didn't you once suspect her during the whole process?" Susan thought that trusting was easier said than done, so she could not believe that there had not been a flicker of hesitation in Norton's heart, especially when Norton offered up all his wealth.

But Norton answered her in just a few words. "if you doubt a person, do not use him, and if you use a person, do not doubt him."

These words finally made Susan understand that their first plan would be a failure. Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

In the evening, after she closed the doors and windows, she turned on the QQ video. In the video, the man's cruel face flashed in front of her a few times before it became clear.

His sharp eyes kept her from looking at him, while she was afraid of him, but she could not help wanting to see him.

"What do you want with me?" Even his voice was very cold.

She told him all about it and then asked. "What are we going to do next?"

"Since mild methods like this don't work, let's give them some strong medicine to stimulate them. From now on, until you get my orders, all you have to do is pretend to be Norton's daughter."
