The Innocent Wife of Scheming President novel Chapter 399

“I have never overestimated myself, but you seem to underestimate my husband’s ability. Do you think he would willingly be Meyer’s puppet? Ms. Ophelia, based on what you say, why do I feel like…” Olive paused deliberately and she let out a swift and fierce gaze afterward, “If anything happens to the Hoyle Group, seems like the Meyer family would be responsible for it.”

Ophelia’s expression slightly changed but she quickly covered it. She felt guilty but kept her imposing manner, “What nonsense are you talking about?”

“Whether it’s nonsense or not, I think Ms. Ophelia, you know it better, right?” Olive toned down a bit. She began to think deeply about a problem. Did she think too highly of this woman back then? Now that she thought about it, aside from the support of her splendid family background there’s nothing awesome about her.

A smart woman wouldn’t deliberately come here to talk about this so-called intimidating speech which wasn’t persuasive at all. She was no longer the naïve girl. The time when she believed whatever someone would say had long gone.

Seeing that she wasn’t provoked, Ophelia was slightly flustered and exasperated, “Olive, when will willing to let Alan go? Are you waiting for him to be ruined before willingly leaving him?”

“He is my husband, the father of my daughter. If I ruin him, won’t I ruin myself? Do you think I’m that stupid? On the contrary, I’m afraid that the one that really wants to ruin him is hiding behind his back, with a few small movements. There’s a popular saying, a wolf in a sheep clothing, I think it’s talking about that kind of people.” Olive said coldly.

“You…” Ophelia’s finger almost poked her nose.

Olive calmly put it down and interrupted her with a smile, “Ms. Ophelia, I didn’t explicitly say that it was you. Why are you being anxious? Is it possible that you feel guilty about it?”

Ophelia covered her guilty conscience by using her anger, “What if I’m hiding something? Olive Steele, I’m telling you. I love Alan no less than you.”

“I believe you do” Olive didn’t want to deny her feelings. This woman came from a family that only a few people could attain. If not because she was supported by love, she wouldn’t be so persistent and clingy.

However, she still felt that no matter how much a person loved, she shouldn’t justify any outrageous things. Moreover, love wasn’t something that could be forced on someone.

Back then, this woman had snatched her beloved man from her side. Today, she would protect him. In a few words, don’t think that she could waver their determination of being together. No matter how hard it was, she would go through it with him. Unless, one day he personally says that he doesn’t want her anymore, then she will leave.

Ophelia said, “Love is a fierce war between you and me. Even if you win today, it doesn’t mean that you’ll still win tomorrow.”

“For you, you don’t mind that love is a place for a bloody war. But for me, love is a place for both men and women with a mutual love for each other and walk a long life together. Ms. Ophelia, if you kept insisting on creating problems, then I can only keep you company. But I can tell you that, the one that loses definitely won’t be me.” Olive had to admit that her growing self-confidence was because Alan doted on her.

“Then you just wait and see. Watch who will laugh until the end and the one who cries definitely won’t be me.” Ophelia seemingly was certain that she would win.

Olive sighed softly, “That’s also true. The trick of weeping beauty seems a bit outdated. Good luck.”

Ophelia glared at her in hatred. Her gaze was full of sarcasm and she walked away coldly. She slammed the door loudly, as if, the whole floor could hear it.

Olive frowned, as if she was lost in thought, and stretched out afterward.

For a long time, Ophelia had been wearing a beautiful mask in front of people. Beautiful visualization such as lovely, elegant, intellectual, sweet, and feminine was shown all over the mask. Even when she’s in front of her, she would look domineering over the situation. It is rare for her to look flustered and exasperated like just now.

Is it because everything has gotten out of her control? In the end, she couldn’t control herself and pretended to be a lady anymore.

After Ophelia left, almost simultaneously Norton opened the door and came in, “Olive, did that shameless woman come to you and look for trouble again?”

Olive looked at him, an old man that blew his beard and glared, which was really funny, “Did you see it?”

“Not only seeing but also I saw her face, looking like everyone owed her hundreds of millions and billions. Did you mistreat her?”

Olive shrugged, “After all, I didn’t let it go her way.”

Norton sat down. His palms slammed on her thigh encouragingly, “You have to teach that woman a lesson. You don’t have to be courteous with her. You are an empress now, why do you have to be afraid of her?”

Olive burst into laughter. Recently the palace drama is popular. The old man casually came here to have fun. He would title the nurses according to each of their temper. He could occasionally imitate several ancient wordings that were popular on the internet. He was an old funny fellow in the inpatient department, which brought a lot of joy in a lifeless hospital building.

“It’s not that I’m afraid of her. But I have to put up a defense against the hidden tricks that she has behind her back.” This is what she’s worried about.

Norton waved his hand, “You don’t have to worry about this. That person in your family will definitely make a proper arrangement for you.”

It wasn’t wrong for him to say it. But some things needed to be prepared just in case. How could Ophelia be someone who would’ve just left the matter that way? There’s also the Meyer family. how could they easily let the gone be bygone?
