The Innocent Wife of Scheming President novel Chapter 21

After drinking too much wine, Chloe’s eyes became blurred and she leaned back on Olive’s shoulder. By this time, they have moved from the bar to the sofa booth, which was full of bottles and cans.

“Olive, I’m homeless. You must take me in, or I’ll have to sleep on a park bench."

Olive was surprised to hear this from her, but it’s not out of her expectation. Olive just hugged her lovingly, “you’re so stupid.”

Although their love was gone, but through a few years of youth, it was ok to ask for the break-up fee.

“He left me a house, a car, and million dollars, but I didn’t take any of them. What do I need that money for without him? His parents and relatives always think I am going for his family’s money. I will show them that the poor also have the aspirations of the poor.”

“Aspiration can’t change for food.” Olive mumbled, but she couldn’t speak out loud. She said another words, “you fool.”

Chloe chuckled, “aren’t you stupider than me? You born a child for a man, but you didn’t let him know. You also kept your mouth shut to us. I haven’t seen you accept another man in these years. Are you still missing him in your heart?”

When Ivy heard this, his lazy body suddenly leaned forward slightly and his eyes fell on Olive’s face.

A mixture of emotions spreading over Olive’s face, it was hard to see through.

Olive was silent for a moment. She picked up her glass and said, “let us drink.”

When you were drunk, you didn’t have to think about anything.

But she was not so easy to get drunk. With the good capacity for alcohol was not a good thing sometimes. The more drink, the more sober, how could she tell them? Annie’s father showed up, but he didn’t know her, and didn’t know that he had a daughter. She even didn’t know whether he remembered her or not.

She once asked him, “if one day I am missing, will you look for me?”

He said, “yes.”

“What if you never find me?”

“You belong to me all the way, and you can’t escape from me anyway.”

But he didn’t find me for these five years. When we met again, we were strangers. Olive thought these in her mind.

Chloe got drunk, and Ivy drove them home. Chloe was much quieter when she got drunk, and she curled up in Olive’s arms, like a wounded cat.

Ivy took a look at her in the rearview mirror, “it is hard for her.”

“It’s only a matter of time before she gets through.” Olive looked at the woman in her arms with pity. Chloe, whom she knew, was too strong to collapse.
