The Innocent Wife of Scheming President novel Chapter 386

“This is not my house nor yours. So, don’t talk bossy to Olive. Ophelia, I don’t know how beautiful you are in Jiangcheng, but here in Luo City,” Chloe Malan sneered, “People know your character. I suggest you to keep a low profile and put aside that big lady act.”

Ophelia Meyer didn’t back down. Instead, she kept talking, “That day, Mom was so angry that she was hospitalized because of you. You don’t bother showing any remorse, do you?”

“Alan doesn’t want you, but you keep on calling his mother mom.” Chloe Malan sarcastically poked a sore spot.

“Don’t act cocky because Alan likes you now. Just because he likes you, it doesn’t mean that it can turn a sparrow into a phoenix. He has played many women and the longest he can commit is three to five months.”

Ophelia Meyer thought that she had a sassy clap back, but she was not aware that she was embarrassing Mrs. Hoyle. By saying that Alan Hoyle was a player, it was equal with insulting Mrs. Hoyle for her lack of teaching.

Chloe Malan answered disdainfully, “What’s so good about phoenix? At least, sparrows are free. You are nothing but a peacock either.”

Since she abandoned the Lynn family, Chloe Malan had long forgotten what it meant to be virtuous with her words. She kept snapping to people she didn’t like. Her words were brutally honest. Olive Steele saw a war was starting, she quickly pulled Chloe Malan aside.

“Mrs. Hoyle, Chloe is a witty and honest person. But, that day, if it wasn’t because of you, she wouldn’t fight back and defend herself. It was unintentional. She did her best to save you anyway. You may not like us, but we’re in temple and Buddha is watching. We better not make a scene here. So, goodbye!”

Ophelia Meyer was about to stop them, but Mrs. Hoyle stopped her first, “Ophelia, let them go.”

Chloe Malan was reluctant to go, but Olive Steele pulled her away. She was fighting fiercely, but Olive Steele suddenly stepped in. the rage was still there. She had not yet finished her attack. It was really uncomfortable for her.

“Olive, what are you doing? If we leave like this, they will think that we are afraid of them.”

“It’s not that we’re afraid of them, but it’s no use to show off right now. Chloe, learn to manage your temper. You cannot always rush into an argument like that, it won’t solve your problem. You have to try to hold back.”

“Well, I cannot act unbothered and flat like you. You know, as soon as I saw them, I really wanted to rip their bodies and drink their bloods.”

“Come on, stop it. We’re in temple now. We better not offend Buddha.” Olive Steele sighed and walked to her mother.

“I thought you didn’t believe in Buddha?” Chloe Malan muttered.

Mrs. Steele was talking with the abbot when she saw them coming, “Where were you just now? I turned around and you disappeared.”

Chloe Malan was about to open her mouth when Olive Steele suddenly poked her, “We went to see the Buddha statue in the main hall. We stayed there for a while.”

She didn’t want to worry her mother too much.

Chloe Malan understood and shut her mouth obediently.

Every time Mrs. Steele came to the temple to pray, she’d always make time to eat a little of the monk’s food. It was said that the monk’s food could expel bad energies.

Today, there were so many people in the temple. It was hard for her to find a table. There were Mrs. Hoyle and Ophelia Meyer across her. Mrs. Steele sat down. She couldn’t see them. She didn’t feel any hostile atmosphere in the air either.

In the dining hall, they couldn’t make a loud noise. Ophelia Meyer said under her breath, “How unfortunate. I meet these two foxes again.”

Chloe Malan grinned when Mrs. Steele wasn’t looking. She smiled and said under her breath, “I’m going to kill you.”

Olive Steele gently pulled her down and whispered, “Eat.”

Chloe Malan was unstoppable.

After the meal, out of the dining hall, Mrs. Steele suddenly looked around and said, “Isn’t that Mrs. Hoyle?”

“Really? Then, the woman beside her must be the post-it, daughter-in-law wannabe who calls Mrs. Hoyle mom.” Chloe Malan said. Her voice wasn’t low, but she didn’t care whether she could hear it or not.

Olive Steele patted her back, “Aren’t you tired? I’m tired listening to you get angry.”

Mrs. Steele too was tired but Chloe Malan had a point. She asked, “Does Mrs. Hoyle believe in Buddhism?”

Chloe Malan laughed, “The more rich people believe in Buddhism, the more crime they commit. If they are afraid of going to hell, they can just come here to seek a peace of mind.”

“Mom, let’s go home.” Olive Steele said.

“Don’t you have to say hello to your mother-in-law?” Mrs. Steele asked.

“No. we have many other opportunities in the future.” at that time, when she looked at Ophelia Meyer, she was also looking at her, smiling.

Olive Steele frowned thinking that she might have saw it wrong. She walked out of the temple with Chloe Malan and her mother.

At this moment, the sun was shining brighter. Olive Steele went to a small shop nearby and bought a few bottles of water and got inside the car. Mrs. Steele wiped the sweat on her forehead, opened the window, and looked at the sky, “Summer is coming.”

“It seems that spring is getting shorter and shorter.” Olive Steele felt that winter wear had not been long taken off shelves and now, summer clothes were everywhere.
