Chapter 248 Robbing the cradle
Love After Marriage: Mr. Lancaster's Hidden Wife
"You can try." Chloe sneered and left without hesitation. After passing two steets and finding he
leave, Chole finally stopped and took a taxi.
In fact, she was startled by herself when she slapped him, for fear of annoying that bloody guy.
She never regarded him as a kind man.
When she got home, she entered in quietly as usual, trying not to disturb the Steeles who were in
sleep. This home was the only place for Chloe to make her peaceful.
Olive slept late tonight. She held her cup and came out for water, happening to meet Chloe who
came home.
"You're back."
"Haven't you slept yet?"
"I come back with some work. I'm ready to sleep now." The voices of the two were both low. Olive
noticed that Chloe didn't look well. She touched Chole's forehead, "What? Do you feel sick?"
"I'm fine, just need a little relax.â
Olive put her hand on Chloe's lip which is broken, "Are you bulled by someone?â
Chloe turned her head away quickly, "Nothing. I was just bit by a mad dog."
"Yang Yu?" Olive asked.
"Don't mention this name. I feel sick.â Chloe's voice raised.
Olive pushed her into the bedroom, shutting up the door, "Be honest, what happened between
you?"
"Come on, don't gossip. I had some wine and feel headache now. Go to rest early. You have to work
tomrrow." Chloe pushed her out while speaking.
This room was Annie's bedroom before, which was not very big. It could only contain a bed and a
cabinet. After Chloe came here, this bedroom belonged to Chloe. Annie became a âroomlessâ gilr
since then. She could sleep wherever she wanted. Anyway, she was the princess in this house. Chloe,
sometimes, spoiled her.
Olive, of course, didn't want to go out. She dodged and jumped into the bed and sat down, "There
must be something in it."
"I have said, I have no interest in that bloody guy! I won't rob the cradle.â Chloe said, grinding her
teeth. She still had a grudge against the thing he kissed her.
"Then that means he is interested in you, an old woman?" Olive chuckled, but felt shocked. She
hoped Chloe could find her happiness. But the Hoyle family was too complex. She was afraid that
Chloe would repeat her old ways. As for Aoba, she knew nothing. Alan only mentioned about him
once, that was his younger brother was not loyal.
A man, who was not loyal to love, was not suitable for Chloe.
"That bloody guy may have been spoiled by women. My disregard to him disgraced him so he
makes troubles for me every day. He thinks every woman in this world should admire him, stupid
man!" Chloe sneered.
Olive felt funny, so she looked at Chloe's angry face and felt relieved, "Okay, forget it. If you can't
get over him, find Ivy or Dave Chou to give him a lesson."
"Good idea. If he dared to annoy me next time, he will become a poo-poo face.â Chloe grinded her
teeth.
Olive shivered. Being beat by Ivy and Dave Chou together must be miserable.
The next day, in the office. Olive shut up the door and had a overseas video telephone with Alan.
The man, who came back from a business meeting just now and hadn't taken off his suit, appeared
in the phone, showing his white teeth. "Miss me?"
Olive rolled her eyes, "Mr. Hoyle, could you please change your opening remarks?"
"No. And I won't," he refused firmly.
"Well. I have something to tell you."
"Hum?" He pulled off the tie and threw it away, not knowing what was its fate.
"Could you please warn your younger brother to stay away from my friend?"
"They are singles. It's not bad for them to make friends.â Alan smiled. He hoped someone could
take care of that guy.
"Chloe has divorced. You know your mother can't even accept me, let alone her.â
She got to the point, which made Alan pause, "My girl. No one can seperate us, including my
mother."
Olive became silent. This problem was a timebomb between them and she didn't know when it
would explode.
"Girl, are you there?"
People always avoided unpleasant things when they were happy. She didn't want to linger on this
problem, which they couldn't avoid and would have to face.
"Anyway, warn your brother. If he only wants to play around, don't find Chloe. If he dares to hurt
Chloe, I will not show mercy to him though you are his brother.â
This day, when Olive backed from work, she heard something slamming upstairs. She asked her
mother, "Mom, what's happening upstairs? Decorate the house?"
"Maybe. The old tenement moved away, that is the new one.â Mrs. Steele answered.
"Well." Olive didn't think too much about it. In the city, neighbors were always strangers.
The Steeles were kind people, so they recognized some friends in this plot when they took Annie
out to play. But Olive could only call out their names when she met them. Except this, they had no
connections. As for who moved away or who moved in upstairs had no relationship with her.
However, when Aunt Qi. who lived dowstairs, took her returnee son here, Olive felt headache.
Was this a blind date?
