The Innocent Wife of Scheming President

Chapter 541: You're all lying to me

Before he could finish, Dave interrupted him. "I don't believe it. You liars, you must have conspired in advance to deceive me, didn't you?"

How could his father, whom he respected most, be a murderer?

All of sudden, he let out a cry, knocked them apart, and ran wildly out of the room.

Xenia hurried after him. "Dave."

"Dave." Ivy tried to catch up with Dave, but Alan held him back.

"Let him calm down."

Ivy said, looking out at the disappearing figure. "Aren't you being cruel to him by telling him that secret?"

"It's better than knowing the truth after he's been used to hurt his friends and brother. You have given up the old generation's feuds, so it may not be a bad thing to tell him the secret at this moment."

"I hope he'll figure it out." Ivy asked after a pause. "Someone is trying to target you? Who is it?"

"I don't know, but I believe this person will appear soon." Alan had a cold gleam in his eyes.

Ivy laughed. "So you've made a lot of enemies."

Alan was anything but modest. "There's really nothing I can do because a person of high position is liable to be attacked."

"Do you need any help?"

"I don't need your help just yet, and I'm not shy about asking you for help when I need you. All you have to do now is bring Dave back, the stubborn bull." Alan patted him on the shoulder, strode over to his wife, reached out, and touched his wife's head. "What are you thinking about?"

Olive has spoken out about her doubts. "I wonder if the person who is deliberately driving a wedge between Dave and you is the same person who is hiding behind Susan."

Alan said to her with a smile. "Do you know what having mutual affinity is? We just have mutual affinity because we're thinking the same thing."

At that moment, Xenia suddenly ran towards them in a panic. "It's bad, Mr. Hoyle, Sister Olive, Dave, he, he..."

Xenia ran so fast that she was a little out of breath. Olive patted her on the back to soothe her. "Don't worry, you talk slowly."

"Dave, Dave, he took Annie away in a very rude way. He's driving, so I can't catch him, and I'm afraid he might hurt Annie, so do something to stop him." Xenia looked worried, as she was genuinely afraid that Dave might do something wrong out of impulse.
