The Innocent Wife of Scheming President novel Chapter 455

Alan pulled Olive intimately into his arms, “I really can’t stand your earnest thoughts. The two of us will surely love each other until our hairs turn white. But you, you better worry about yourself. You can’t even deal with the woman you like, but you want to be an expert here. Aren’t you embarrassed?”

What was the best way to lose a friend? This was.

But Olive was already used to the two of them. They were kind of itching if they didn’t argue or harm each other.

The banquet had been going for more than half an hour and there was still no news of Finn’s arrival.

Kent lost a little of his patience, “This old fox is calm.”

Alan chuckled, “Arriving too fast, it seems like he can’t wait. Don’t look at his current situation is so big, looking like it’s impressive. Professionals may not know that he has only an empty shell now. He still has to maintain the necessary behavior. Arriving late, he can say that he was caught up in helping the Hoyle’s affairs.”

Finn was indeed late on purpose. If he came too early, he was afraid that his little idea would be seen through by other parties, as if he was begging other and became very passive. He had a good sense how to enter the arena, knowing that he would inevitably be questioned about the Hoyle Family once he entered. He didn’t plan to stay too long either, meeting Steward was his main purpose.

When the moment Simon saw Finn Meyer’s appearance at the entrance of the banquet hall, he quietly sent a message to Alan with his phone while he was being surrounded for questioning. ‘Meyer is here.’

Dave stood in a discreet corner and talked loudly at Ivy beside him, “The show is about to begin.”

In the room, Alan received the message and his mouth curved coldly, “Let Liam put those people out properly.”

Kent finished calling his subordinate and sighed, “It seems that tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.”

He picked up Annie, who was sitting on the floor playing her building blocks, and said as he walked out, “Little thing, fight a monster with uncle.”

Annie patted her little hands, “Okay. Let’s fight a monster, bringing down the bad guys and monsters!”

Olive pulled on Alan’s clothes with reservation, “Annie is too young to let her see the ugliest side of human nature. Won’t it be bad?”

Alan shot her a comforting smile. Kent turned around and spoke out first before he could, “Don’t worry. Your daughter is much stronger than you think. Besides, she’ll have to inherit such huge family business from the Hoyle later. It’s also good that some things are better known since young.”

At the banquet, Simon wasn’t in a hurry to greet Finn Meyer. He deliberately stayed a little longer among a group of people at a distance, chatting happily as if he hadn’t noticed his existence.

On the contrary, Finn was eager to get rid of the questionings, but had to maintain a gentle and decent smile to deal with the evil minded people. He secretly cursed them. These people obviously came to expose his scars on purpose and had bad intentions.

It wasn’t until Simon slightly looked up and saw three people’s figures on the connected circular ladder upstairs, then he walked over to him and smiled a little, “Mr. Meyer, let me recommend you to my boss, Mr. Steward.”

With Simon’s attention and the direction of his hand, the voice of the conversation in the banquet hall gradually fell. The rhythmic sound of high heels knocked on the surface of the marble stairs became clearer on everyone’s eardrums, attracting their eyes to curiously look.

The spiral staircase was built in a discreet corner, but it was impossible to ignore its existence. People who were standing in different direction had different vision.

The owner of the high heels walked very slowly. Everyone was eagerly waiting. The first thing they saw was the flaming red heels that sometimes appeared from under the hem of the skirt. The light reflected the crystals, very dazzling.

There was no one next to her and behind her, which made everyone slightly surprised and inevitably whispered.

“Why is it a woman?”

“Yeah. Is the rumor wrong?”

There were also some playboys who quietly bet each other, “Do you guys think this woman has a devil face or an angel face on that devilish body?”

“Let’s forget it. No matter she’s an angel or devil, powerful woman often isn’t something you and I can stand. It’s better that kind of woman who is kind, gentle, and obedient.”

“Maybe she’s an auntie with a body odor.”

Wanton laughter was heard from these good-for-nothing men, but when the oriental woman’s petite figure with young, pretty, and natural face without makeup appeared in front of them, these people were dumbfounded.

“A goddess!” someone sighed.

In their world, women wouldn’t go out without makeup. But the woman in front of them dared to show such face in an important occasion. With a soft smile, just like a woman walking out of a painting, she left her fragrance wherever she walked passed.

Jiangcheng’s celebrities and noblemen was unfamiliar with Olive Steele’s face, but for the Meyer, it was an Incantation of the Golden Hoop.

Ophelia’s eyes instantly turned red and rushed to her, “Why are you not dead yet?”

This nasty tone made everyone even more surprised. And Ophelia knew what was wrong as soon as she spoke, but what she said was already like a spilled water. She couldn’t take it back even if she wanted to.

But she didn’t know that this was exactly what Olive had in mind. She told the two men about the effect she wanted achieve by showing herself first.

She was ignorant when she was young. She was intimidated by this woman’s abusive power. Until she grew her experience, she realized that the Meyer’s lady was nothing but a mere appearance. She abused her power and bullied others, yet wasn’t necessarily smart.

Just like now.

She didn’t know and was careless with her words. The information in it was enough to wake up many people in the mist.
