The Innocent Wife of Scheming President novel Chapter 401

"Of course, I am. I was wondering when you will arrive here with lunch.”

Actually, she could go by herself to the hospital cafeteria to have lunch. It’s not that she couldn’t walk there but Alan felt that the dishes there were not nutritious.

“I happened to meet your mother. She has made a good soup and the lunch will arrive in ten minutes.”

When Alan returned to the ward, he saw her leaning on the window. One foot slightly bent on her toes, consciously and unconsciously, turning around slowly, and gracefully.

The oversized hospital gown on her slender body made her look more frail and thin. He hugged her from behind, “What are you thinking about? I’ve called you twice but you didn’t respond.”

Olive slowly turned around and saw that no one’s behind him, “Where’s Mom?”

“She said that didn’t want to disturb us and she went strolling the street with Chloe. But, you still haven’t answered my question, huh?”

Something that caused her to be low in spirit, must be not simple. Moreover, her gaze obviously looked like she’s evading it. Her small mouth slightly opened repeatedly, as if she wanted to talk.

He didn’t like to have a secret between them, which made him felt insecure. Alan thought of what kind of hardship he had suffered before and what time he felt nervous when meeting his competitors or foes. Only this girl that could make him felt uneasy.

If this was known by Kent, he would definitely tease him. However, he had to admit that it’s true.

Olive does have a secret. This secret had nothing to do with their relationship, also had nothing to do with Mrs. Hoyle or Ophelia. She already had this secret for several days and was hesitant about it. She didn’t know if she should confess now since she was in a dilemma.

“Do you have anything that you can’t tell me?” Alan was obviously unhappy with her silence.

Olive bit her lips slightly and decided that she would hold onto it for the time being. She tilted her head, smiled, and asked him, “Do you think there’s something I can’t tell you?”

“I really want to split your head open so I can see what’s inside.” Alan sighed helplessly. He was always helpless about her. It’s not that he wanted to control her thoughts, but he couldn’t help but curious about the dynamic of her thoughts.

“You’re so cruel. I’m still alive, yet you want to split my head open.”

She responded with an exaggeration to avoid his question. As he thought of it carefully, such a situation wasn’t actually the first time.

What is that she’s being so secretive about it?

When they were eating, she suddenly spoke up, “You think, will Ellison be able to change into someone better?”

Alan was dumbfounded for a moment, “Ellison? Why are you suddenly talking about Master Geve?”

It was said that to see if a person was sincere or not, it depends on whether he avoided his gaze or not. But, when she was upstairs just now, she couldn’t see Ellison’s eyes. He lowered his head, his brows were drooping, looking regretful and guilty. He occasionally raised his head, his gaze looked steady. But she still felt that aside from looking steady, he still hid something that she couldn’t explain clearly.

She didn’t know if it’s because she ever had hard feelings for him, so she became paranoid.

She hopes so.

She told Alan about everything that happened upstairs just now, as she took out the doubts in her heart.

It’s not that she didn’t trust Ellison, but he had done a lot of bad things previously. She couldn’t overlook it. It’s just that time, as she saw Aunt Geve’s hopeful gaze, she was uncomfortable to ask about her doubts.

Alan muttered slightly to himself, as he spoke, “Whether he will repent sincerely or that he has no other purpose, eventually, time will reveal a person’s heart. But kid, you have to stay away from that person in the future.”

Olive laughed and said, “Don’t tell me you’re jealous of me, do you?”

“I’m afraid that his mental disorder will harm you someday. After all, he has HIV now.”

“Although he’s not a bad person, you can’t discriminate against him just because he has AIDS. Besides, it’s not contagious when coming into contact.”

Olive is optimistic that HIV is not a plague. The people who fear AIDS was simply because they lack the correct understanding of AIDS.

“What you say is not wrong, but being careful is also not wrong anyway. Besides, don’t you still have doubts about him?” He wasn’t discriminating against people with HIV but it’s better to be safe than sorry. He didn’t want any harm to his little wife.

“Don’t worry. He won’t be working in Angel after all. I think I won’t have many chances to contact him in the future.” Actually, Olive was having doubts about this. Based on Ellison’s personality, it’s impossible for him to give up the fight for Angel so quickly. This wasn’t like him at all.

Could it be that after experiencing some things, now he is willing to let go of the life of Master Geve?

Let’s hope so.

When Olive was discharged from the hospital, she went through the procedure quietly, then packed her things and returned home without a sound, which made everyone in the house surprised.

“Aren’t you being discharged tomorrow?”

“I’m afraid that you will involve a lot of people again, so I sneak off and return obediently.” Olive grinned.

“This kid” Mrs. Steele was annoyed.

Aoba said, “Don’t tell me that you sneaked back without telling my brother. I guess you are merciless, sister-in-law.”

Olive chuckled, “I’m sorry I didn’t meet your expectation. It’s your brother who sent me to the front door.”

“Then, where’s he?” Mrs. Steele glanced at the door but still, nobody came in, and the corridor was also empty.
