The Innocent Wife of Scheming President novel Chapter 497

“What is there to think? I don’t know how much longer I can still live. I just want to see you take over Angel Hotel when I can still open my eyes, so that I can die contentedly,” Norton said heavily.

Lory had a gloomy expression on sitting beside him. What could we do with wealth in this life? Money could buy a lot of things, but it couldn’t buy health.

“Father, what are you talking about? Look at you making mother sad again. You have to believe that you and mother will live a long life. I’ve just found you, but you’re not allowed to say such damned words. I still want to be filial to you for a few years. Mother, don’t listen to father. Doctor has said that father’s body is recovering well. I still want you to look at your daughter finds a boyfriend and gets married, giving you a grandchild too.”

Susan was a very soothing person and she was able to coax the old couple with a few words.

If those hidden purposes were eliminated, Olive really felt that it was a good thing to let Susan be the daughter of the Geve.

Their daughter was their heart disease now.

Alan studied all the subtle changes in Olive’s expression. He silently put a food in her bowl and laughed with the most natural tone, “Ms. Susan, I heard that you’re a top student of the prestigious Stanford University. With your ability, it would be a waste not to come back and take over your family business.”

“That’s right. It’s much better to be a boss yourself. You don’t have to look at those foreigners while eating,” Norton echoed, but he also understood Alan’s meaning. He wanted to kidnap Olive earlier to his own company.

Susan smiled helplessly and sighed, “You know how to talk, Alan. It seems that this dinner is specially arranged by my father to persuade me. Give me a week to think about it. Seven days later, I’ll give my answer.”

Refused when she was welcomed, advanced after she retreated, Olive thought. This one named Susan was a good player.

Norton bargained, “Seven days are too long. Just three days. Three days later is our wedding anniversary. I’ve arranged a banquet and there will be reporters from several media companies. With this opportunity, I want to formally introduce you to everyone and declare you’re the legal heiress of Angel Holiday Hotel.”

Susan wanted to say something, but Lory, who had been silent, took one of her hands and said, “Just listen to your father. Actually, whether you take over the hotel now or not, it’ll be yours sooner or later. Your dad’s will has been made long ago. The Angel Hotel is his legacy to you.”

On the way back, Olive sat silently without a word, looking out the car window thoughtfully.

Alan pulled her distracted head to his shoulders, “What are you thinking?”

“I’m thinking if I worried too much?”

“It’s easy. You just find a way to get her piece of hair for me. I’ll find someone to test the DNA again and the truth will become clear.”

Olive suddenly slapped her forehead and said, “Why didn’t I think of that? So stupid.”

It was a vain for her to usually watch so many soap operas with her mother. This was a bad cliché in a plot.

“Your head sometimes don’t feel good too,” Alan laughed at her.

Olive pinched him. It wasn’t that she didn’t feel good, but she was thinking about something else. This matter had been in her mind for several months.

She had been hesitating. Perhaps it was time to make a decision.

“Honey, if one day, you find out that I’ve hidden a very important thing from you, will you be angry at me?”

Alan turned his head and stared at her deeply. Was his baby finally ready to confess?

He smiled and said, “There’s a lot of thing you’ve been hiding from me. Like that time when I first arrived in Luo City, and the past few days in Jiangcheng when you and my mother had an agreement in private. You don’t even tell me an inkling of it. If I want to be angry at you, I’ll be doing that earlier.”

“Then, if one day I do something a little too much, you won’t be angry, right?” However, it seemed that her matter wasn’t a small matter. She was really afraid that he would scold her.

For example, the agreement she reached with Mrs. Hoyle had something to do with him. She didn’t know whether he would run away when he found out one day. Actually, looking at his crazy self, it had to be interesting. And she was sure that he would like her little plan. But she was worried that he would like it better than her.

“Say it. Honestly. What did you do behind my back?” He might have guessed some things, but he wasn’t too sure. He didn’t want to investigate behind her bag. There had to be a reason for her to refuse to say it.

Olive pursed her lips, “What kind of tone is that? It’s like I have done something shameful. I don’t steal, kill, and set fire. There’s nothing for me to tell you.”
