The Innocent Wife of Scheming President

Olive Steele smiled, “your mother is not a monster. She won’t eat people. Don’t worry.”

Alan Hoyle was not worried about anything else. He was afraid that his mother would behave ugly, unreasonable, and unforgiving. Although Olive Steele was smiling, but deep inside her heart, she felt uncomfortable. She was not a kind of person who liked to talk about her grievances.

But, obviously Olive Steele had something to say. She put down her chopstick and smiled at Mrs. Hoyle, “will you allow me the honor?”

Mrs. Hoyle said flatly, “Is there something you cannot say at this table?”

“Are you afraid to be alone with me for a while?” Olive Steele deliberately provoked her.

Sure enough, the old lady’s face sank. A threat was an invitation for her. She stood up, “Do you think I’m afraid of you? Come with me. As for the rest of you, just sit down here. Don’t think you can impress me just because you manage to hook my son around your little fingers.”

Olive Steele never thought that a few words would move the stubborn old lady. She followed her upstairs.

People in the dining room looked at each other. Alan Hoyle watched his wife leaving and lost in his own thought.

Aoba Hoyle kicked his brother’s foot under the table, “Brother, what do you think sister-in-law will say to mom?”

“If you listen, you will know.” Ada Hoyle replied.

Finally, three of them followed upstairs stealthily.

Soon, three ears were attached to the door of the study. Annie pushed their legs apart and did the same, but she couldn’t hear a word.

She poked Alan Hoyle and asked, “Dad, do you think grandma will do something bad to mom?”

Alan Hoyle stroked her head while Ada Hoyle quickly put her fingers over the little girl’s mouth. She hissed and told her to shut up.

The conversation inside lasted for almost half an hour. No one knew what they were talking about. The door was suddenly opened and people standing at the door fell back.

Alan Hoyle was quick-witted. He held the door frame and grabbed Annie, but the other two weren’t so lucky. They stumbled and fell back. Olive Steele gasped.
