The Innocent Wife of Scheming President

But Olive didn’t mind. Hadn’t she seen enough of the old lady’s expression? She had gotten used to it. This habit had become natural. This kind of nature made her heart harden into an iron wall. She could withstand it no matter how many blows.

“Mrs. Hoyle, everyone says if the family lives in harmony, all affairs will prosper. If you insist on making this family in turmoil, then I can’t do anything about that.”

Mrs. Hoyle slammed the table that it shook. “I’m making this family in turmoil? If you don’t exist, my family will be so harmonious now.”

Olive shrugged and chuckled, “If I don’t exist, Alan wouldn’t fall in love with Ophelia Meyer too. As a mother, if you really love your children, you should give them freedom to choose, instead of thinking to control their lives, including their marriage.”

“If a woman truly loves her man and knows she isn’t his match, she should have left him,” Mrs. Hoyle retorted.

Olive smiled, “Mrs. Hoyle, how are we not match?”

“You two aren’t in everything.”

“Please be specific.”

“Do I still need to say it?”

“Since Mrs. Hoyle can’t tell it specifically, I can only treat you as a childish elder being unreasonable.”

“I’m unreasonable? Hmph. I forgot to tell you that after you left the study, Alan agreed to let Ophelia go and not hold her accountable.”

How could Olive fail to see that Mrs. Hoyle were intending to provoke her? She faintly smiled and wasn’t surprised.

“I’ve said it, I won’t intervene in this matter and won’t say too much. I have no opinion on how Alan will handle it. Alan is willing to let her go because he’s open-minded. If he isn’t, that’s also because Ms. Meyer reaps what she sows. Everyone must be responsible of their actions’ consequences. Mrs. Hoyle, you’re not wrong for protecting her ‘cause it’s natural. I can understand that, but it’ll cause bad gossips about you. As for myself, I don’t care. Jiangcheng doesn’t have the places I miss and I don’t plan to stay here longer, so that I won’t upset you more. I wouldn’t be able to hear any rumors. However, you are welcome when you came to Luo City and visit my family. If you come, my home will treat you as a guest.”

“Forget that. I don’t care,” Mrs. Hoyle snorted coldly and refused to accept.

“Of course you don’t. My home is small and can’t be compared to yours.” Olive didn’t feel disappointed. In front of the stubborn Mrs. Hoyle, she wanted to reach the softest place in her heart. It was a tortuous and secluded path and it wasn’t opened for her.

“Good that you know.” Mrs. Hoyle’s words meant that for Olive climbing up to the Hoyle Family, it was like a sparrow that turned into a phoenix. She should be grateful and tone down her tone.
