After getting off the car, Xenia walked a few steps and turned back. She asked him carefully through the window, "will you marry Ophelia tomorrow?"
"Why not." Alan ground, stepping on the accelerator at his fee. The car disappeared like an arrow leaving Xenia shouting in the empty road, "Hey, you can't get Olive when you get married."
What did the man think?
Alan did not return to Hoyle family, but to his private villa outside. When Delyn opened the door, he was shocked to see that Alan was angry and hurried.
"Mr. Hoyle, what’s the matter"
Didn't he getting married tomorrow? How can he get here instead of Hoyle’s?
Alan said as he went upstairs, "call Dave to Hoyle family to get my dress for tomorrow and see me in the study."
"OK." Delyn watched him disappear at the corner of the stairs with some worry. He called Dave quickly and explained the matter in short words. He couldn't help saying, "Mr. Hoyle seems not to be very happy."
"Never mind, wait for me." Dave laughed and drove to Hoyle family. Naturally, he can't help but explain.
Mother Hoyle said, "tomorrow he will be married. How can he still live outside?"
Dave said with a smile, "madam, don't worry. Mr. Hoyle has some important business to deal with now. He's afraid that he won't be able to come back to change clothes in time, so he asked me to take it. Tomorrow he will go to church directly."
"Well, I have to call him and let him back. The business is not more important than marriage. It's only once to get married. No matter how important the work is, he has to put it aside first." Mother Hoyle was mainly afraid of his changing his mind. If that, she can't afford the risk of how to explain to the guests tomorrow.
"Mom, my brother is not a kid anymore. He know what he should do. You should worry less. If he doesn't want to get married, he won't ask you to choose a day or let Dave to get the dress. You are over-act. If he really wanted to escape from marriage, he would have run already, and he will not wait until this time. " Ada took the clothes down from upstairs and stopped her mother's action.
"Bah, bah, bah." Mother Hoyle didn't care about her image. She slapped Ada on her body. "A dog’s mouth emits no ivory."
Ada pouted, "a dog is a dog, which is not an elephant. They are different things. How can a dog's mouth spit out ivory?"
Dave tried to control himself not laughing. He took the clothes and left immediately. He was afraid that the Hoyle family's mistress would ask him for trouble again. It was difficult to deal with her.
All the way to the villa, he give the clothes to Delyn custody, and went straight to the upstairs study.
