The Innocent Wife of Scheming President novel Chapter 462

“After my eyes are completely healed, in two or three months, I would always come here to live for a few days. I was missing you little deceiver who deceived my feelings and left irresponsibly. You didn’t even leave a name and address, making me couldn’t find you. I hated you so, so much. I wanted to catch you back and tie you then throw you into the pond.”

“To the pond?” Olive rolled her eyes and knocked his forehead with her chopsticks, “It’s a good thing you can figure it out, dregs of feudalism.”

Alan peeled a shrimp and put it in her bowl, “After I calmed down, I thought again that you wouldn’t be that kind of person. I can’t imagine a young woman would stay with a disabled person for a year, taking care of him, encouraging him. What was her purpose? In the end, she didn’t take anything with her and had even lost her innocence. If she was a liar, it didn’t make sense. So, I thought she had to be threatened or blocked.”

“It was fortunate that the car accident didn’t mess up your head. It even left you a little wisdom.” Olive also peeled a shrimp and put it in his bowl as a reward. “But, I have to correct something.”

“What is it?”

“Actually, I left you a signal when I left, but I was afraid it’d be seen by a malicious person. So I hid it better. It’s just a pity that you don’t find it after so many years.”

“There is.” Alan looked confused.

When she left that time, she took everything about her, except for the bottle filled with lucky stars that she folded for him every day and left it on top of the bed. He almost turned the whole place upside down, but he couldn’t find her sign.

“I just looked around the room just now and something is missing. Did you take it?” Olive reminded him.

Alan was taken aback for a moment, “Could it be that bottle of lucky stars?”

The only thing he took from this house was that thing. But he never thought that there would be a mystery in it.

“Yeah, the secret is in there. You didn’t throw it away, did you? Then my hard work was really in vain.” Olive felt regret for herself for that little idea. “Even if you still keep it, you still don’t find the secret inside. It seems I was busy doing it for nothing.”

When they returned to the villa on the mountain, Kent and the others had a good hunt all morning. For example, hare, pheasant, snake and so on. They hunted a lot, but they didn’t see any boar.

They did see a few sheep, but unfortunately, they were raised by people down the mountain. They had also bought one back. When they were on the way back, they found a badger hidden in the jungle by the roadside. They successfully captured it after several round of chasing.

As soon as they came back, they packed them up and put them in the fridge. They also discussed going to the lake on the other side of the mountain to fish in the afternoon, planning to have a taste of the mountain lake at night.

Although Finn Meyer was arrested and there were still some mopping-up matters to be dealt with, compared to the previous crucial work and tight nerves, they were much more relaxed now.

It had been a long time since they relaxed like this.

Seeing Alan and Olive had returned, Kent happily greeted, “Hoyle, we’re going fishing. Let’s go together this time, or you don’t get to eat tonight.”

Alan ignored him and ran upstairs.

“What’s wrong with him? You guys didn’t fight, did you?!” Kent asked Olive. This was a rare sight, but it didn’t look like it from their appearances.

Olive laughed without answering.

Kent squinted at the disappearing back figure from the corner of the stairs. “So mysterious. Are you guys coming or not?”

Annie came over and pulled Olive’s hand, “Mommy, ask dad to come with. These old men are rude to the youngsters. They kept bullying me when you guys were away.”

“Kid, you’re pretty good at complaining, huh? Are we that old?” Kent hit her little head with melon seed.

“At least you’re not younger than me.” The little thing really knew how to be an annoying troublemaker, digging a gap in adult’s words.

Alan ran upstairs with a clear goal. It was the bottle of lucky stars with a hidden secret in it which he hadn’t discovered in time.

This bottle once was placed in his study in the Hoyle’s residence. It was ever scattered all over the floor by Ophelia. Whether it was intentional or unintentional, he didn’t like others to touch his precious things. Then, he brought it to this private villa and locked it in a drawer in the bedroom.

He was opening the lid and pouring all the contents to the bed. Three hundred and sixty-five stars. It happened to be the number of they were together for a year. He never lost one of them.

Sometimes when he lied on this bed and was unable to sleep, he would look at them in daze, wondering where she could be and whether she was well. But he never thought that there were secret hidden in it.

His little wife’s hands were very talented. Each star was very delicate. If she didn’t tell him, he really thought that they were nothing unusual. These looked no difference.

He couldn’t help but grumbled. Could the girl be playing pranks on him?

He held the empty transparent bottle and looked at it left and right. He even took a look at the bottom and there was nothing engraved on it. It had always been this bottle and he had never changed it.

He took a look at the lid again. And he did find something. Inside the lid, there was a thin layer of light yellow foam paper attached to the top of the lid. He opened it with his fingers.

When he turned it over, it wasn’t surprising that there were a few handwritings written on it. Because of the time, the color was oxidized, but he could still recognize it.

“Luo City, Olive Steele, girl, waiting for you.”
