The Innocent Wife of Scheming President novel Chapter 487

Alan had driven his car long and still couldn’t see both mother and daughter. It was uncertain whether they had walked very fast or he was searching at the wrong direction. Alan called Olive several times again and still no one picked up. He didn’t know if she didn’t hear it or didn’t answer it on purpose.

But logically, he was still comforting her just now, she was asking him not to be angry at his mother. It was impossible for her to get angry in a blink of an eye. His girl wasn’t a kind of person who was moody.

Just when he was planning to drive further, and if he still couldn’t see them, he would turn around and search for them at another direction, two figures—one big, one small—appeared from his sight. The suspend in his heart finally loosened and he softly breathed out.

Annie was like bird just released from a cage. Without the restraint of the Hoyle’s residence, she was skipping and jumping. Her fluffy princess dress was like a blooming flower. They were holding hands while talking.

Alan actually knew that the rules and regulations in the Hoyle’s residence weren’t fit for Annie’s growth. Annie needed a more free and open space and the Steele family fitted.

When the car abruptly stopped in front of them, Annie called out, “It’s daddy’s car.”

Olive watched her man got out of the car, “Why did you come out? Are you guys finished?

Alan stared at his wife and daughter and smiled, “I’m afraid you’ll abduct my wife and daughter, leaving me alone uncared and pitifully.”

“Hey, you’re thinking too far,” Olive scolded him. She was about to walk to the crossroads and turn around. She had already told the servants that they were going out for a walk. The mansion was too boring and she needed to breathe. Plus, Annie wanted to go for a stroll, so they went out.

“Who ask you keep not answering my phone call?” Alan complained.

Olive touched her pocked and it was empty. She suddenly remembered, “I left my phone. I’m sorry.”

Alan reached his hand to flick her forehead. “Okay. I forgive you this time.”

Annie sighed like an adult, “You too are so clingy and stick together like a gum. How could mommy leave you?”

Her words made Alan beam with joy. The depressing aura when he left the house faded away. He bent down and picked up his daughter, then aggressively twirled for a few times. “My baby has a smart mouth.”

But Annie wasn’t excited by this compliment. She hugged Alan’s neck and asked, “When can we return to Luo City? I miss grandpa and grandma.”

Since she was born, this was the first time for the little thing to leave the Steele for such a long time. The excitement and novelty when she first came out had long faded away. Now, she just wanted to go home soon. That place was her real free world. She had big friends and small friends in that familiar city.

Alan became sensitively aware of something and asked her, “Does baby not like Jiangcheng’s grandma?”

After thinking for a while, Annie guiltily said, “It’s not that I don’t like her. It’s her who doesn’t like me.”

“How so?”

“That morning, Jiangcheng’s grandma thought I wasn’t awake. She sighed and said it would be better if I was a boy. Dad, Jangcheng’s grandma keep refusing to recognize me and accept mom. Is it because I’m a girl? Is boy that important?”

Her grandparents in Luo City wouldn’t reject her because she was a girl. They loved her and regarded her as a jewel, saying that she was their little princess and happy vitamin. So, she preferred grandparents in Luo City and be together with them. She was free and happy. She really missed them until she dreamed of them.

Alan couldn’t change his mother’s traditional thinking, but he also understood that because of his mother’s words, his daughter’s little heart was hurt.

“Baby, remember dad’s words. No matter what Jiangcheng’s grandma think of you, boys and girls are the same in dad and mom’s hearts. Girls even are loved more by parents than boys. In this world, it doesn’t matter if others discriminate your gender. Just remember that mom and dad love you. In mom and dad’s life, you’re better and your existence is warmer than boys.”

“Really?”

“When does dad ever lie to you?”

Annie tilted her head and thought, “So far, never. I believe you.”

As if determining something, the little thing pursed her lips and smooched hard on his face, wetting his face, then she giggled. She stopped after she giggled enough, pretending to be mysterious, then she said, “Tell you a secret.”

“What is it?” Alan asked curiously. Sometimes, he really couldn’t guess what was in his baby’s little head.

Annie whispered, “You’re also the most special existence in my life.”

Olive pretended to be jealous at the side, “What are you guys talking that I don’t get to hear?”
