The Innocent Wife of Scheming President novel Chapter 516

If Mrs. Hoyle wanted the child, sure. Olive had always been soft-hearted and Chloe couldn’t do anything to change her mind, but she could prevent the old witch from taking it on granted. A person like her in the world who could easily take others’ treasure didn’t know how to cherish it.

Maybe she thought Olive wanted to flatter her.

Mrs. Hoyle knew she was bad with words, but she didn’t want to lose her manner. “Can’t I change my mind?”

Chloe never dropped her sneer, “Sure. But Mrs. Hoyle, aren’t you eating your own words after saying it with much confidence? You don’t want when you don’t want. You want when you want. Do you think Olive is your ragdoll?”

“If she is that easily, would I be standing here and talking to you?” Instead, Mrs. Hoyle felt that she was the marionette that was invisibly manipulated. That woman worked together with her son to design a no way out for her.

From the moment she knocked on the Steele’s door, she suddenly felt that she was planted and had fallen into the game they had set in advance.

Chloe joked, “Oh? Mrs. Hoyle, it’s really rare to hear you praise one of our Steele’s members.”

I…” Mrs. Hoyle took a breath as she couldn’t explode no matter what.

Thinking back what she said just now, there was indeed an exaggeration on her side. Was she confused or too mad? Darn it.

“Mrs. Hoyle,” Mrs. Steele started. “Since we’ve started to talk about the child, let’s not go too far.”

Mrs. Hoyle glared at Chloe intensely, then returned her gaze back to Mrs. Steele. “I don’t like to drag on either. I’ll get to the point. I want the child this time.”

Her strong demeanor didn’t weaken Mrs. Steele. “Mrs. Hoyle, you can have the child. We’re not unreasonable people, but my family also has one condition.”

“What is it?”

“Your family must give my Olive a formal public ceremony.”

Although Olive didn’t mind these things and dealt this grudges generously, as a mother, she had to win the necessary respect for her daughter.

“A ceremony? My son is already holding a wedding in your Luo City with a great fanfare. Is this ceremony not grand enough?” Mrs. Hoyle was obviously dissatisfied with Mrs. Steele’s request.

Mrs. Steele shook her head, “Mrs. Hoyle, as you said, the wedding is prepared by Alan and it has nothing to do with the Hoyle Family. The wedding is Alan’s compensation for Olive, and it’s not Mrs. Hoyle’s sincerity.”

Chloe almost applauded. Indeed her mother was the calmest and caught the point. With the current depth of affection between Olive and Alan, although certain things had become irrelevant, the old witch still had to watch her attitude.
