Chapter 384 What Should I Do with You?
Love After Marriage: Mr. Lancaster's Hidden Wife
The waittingbar at night had always been so charming that the place was never empty. The place
would always be filled with familiar faces.
Aoba Hoyle was also a half time customer here. He could easily find where Ivy Aldington was.
He was, of course, in a secluded private place.
The curtain covered the outside view. Aoba Hoyle pushed a check in front of him.
"What does this mean?â Ivy Aldington was puzzled.
"A few days ago, a woman borrowed a million from you and today, I will pay it back for her.â he said
without beating around the bush.
âDoes she know about this? Since you are with her, you should know that she doesn't like it when
others intervene in her private affairs especially behind her back.â
âYou donât have to worry about this. I will tell her myself.â
Ivy Aldington pushed the check back, âI think you should tell her first. As far as I know her, she won't
like it this way. One million is nothing for you, but it is a burden for her.â
âYou're a weirdo. Why don't you just accept the money?â
He didn't know how much of a burden one million was for her, but he knew that paying off her debt
would make her unhappy. She couldn't even accept an iPhone, how could she accept a million?
However, he didn't like it when her woman owed another man a lot of money even if they were
good friends.
Ivy Aldington sipped his wine and smiled, âI think Chloe would like to pay the money herself.â
âYou know that with her income, she will not be able to pay it off for years.â
Now that she found a day job, she was very busy.
"You better tell your mother to do less wicked things in the future.â Ivy Aldington said while lowkey
warning him.
Aoba Hoyle was not happy about this. It hit too close to home.
Ivy Aldington added, âAs for the money, it doesn't matter. I don't urgently need it and even if she
doesn't pay it back, it doesn't matter.â
Aoba Hoyle felt funny when he heard this. It felt flamboyant like he was showing off their friendship
for years while he and Chloe Malan herself was not as solid.
âIt must feel good to be friends for years.â he said sourly.
Ivy Aldington smiled, âI don't have many friends. She is one of them. Since you're with her, you
should her temperament by now. She doesn't like it when others decide things for her.â
Aoba Hoyle approached her with flickered eyes, âI'm his boyfriend, Ivy. I'm not âothersâ.â
Ivy Aldington turned a blind eye and smiled, âExactly, you two are nothing but boyfriend and
girlfriend. I can see other couples everywhere. Today, you get together and next day, you break up.
It's normal. Besides, you have a mother who is more like a bully. I doubt that your relationship with
Chloe will last long.â
"You're insulting me.â Aoba Hoyle wanted to strangle the man in front of him. How could he talk like
that?
âI'm just telling you the truth.â he smiled.
Aoba Hoyle stayed for a while in the car and went back to the car. He slammed his steering wheel
and horn that passerby thought he was inside.
He came in a good mood. He didn't expect that Ivy Aldington would pick on his soft spot.
Chloe Malan came out from work and saw him leaning to the steering wheel. He looked absent.
There was a loud music coming from inside the car. The closed doors and windows made it
defeating.
She frowned and reached out to the stereo to turn it off. She looked at him strangely.
On weekdays, this boy wouldn't leave her no matter how hard she tried to get rid of him but today,
she came out of work, alone.
Seeing him back early, she thought that he was gone. Unexpectedly, she saw his car outside.
"What did Ivy tell you?â she watched him coming in happily and coming out sulking. He must have
been verbally defeated.
"Didn't he tell you?"
"He asked me to ask you.â Chloe Malan buckled up her seatbelt.
âThen, I will tell you. Don't be angry.â Aoba Hoyle hesitated a little.
He would be overwhelmed if Chloe Malan got angry this time.
âI said I wouldn't.â Chloe Malan smiled.
Aoba Hoyle took the check and showed it to her.
Her pupil shrank, âYou want to pay my debt.â
"Yes, but he confiscated it.â Aoba Hoyle answered honestly and looked at her face carefully, âDonât
be angry.â
Sometimes, he wanted to ask his elder brother how he loved. He was never this timid, but this time,
he had to be extra careful with this woman.
Chloe Malan shook her head, âI'm not angry. I know you have a good intention, but this matter, I
will solve it myself. You don't have to blend in.â
Seeing that her rage was absent, he secretly heaved a sigh and tried to persuade her, âThis incident
was caused by my mother. If it wasn't for her, you wouldn't have to borrow a million. There is
nothing wrong with me returning the money.â
âIt's true. Sometimes, I hate having such parents. I just want to be with the man who loves me. I can
be an equal footing for him and his family, but they always make me feel inferior.â she said sadly.
She put on a wry smile, âI borrowed a million from Ivy for your mother to buy out my relationship
with Hai Wanyuan and Tao Liu. I thought you saw it in the newspaper. They are no longer my
parents. Do you think I'm heartless, disloyal and unfilial?"
"Please, don't say that about yourself.â Aoba Hoyle covered her mouth, âI have never looked down
on you, not once.â
Chloe Malan put his hand away gently, âI know you have seen me in the street. If you didn't care
about me, you wouldn't have stayed with me.â
âYou're my woman. It's only natural for me to help you financially. A million is not a small amount. I
don't like seeing you work multiple jobs and wear yourself out.â he held her hand tightly.
âThank you. I know you care about me. When we have a relationship like Olive and Alan, I will
submit myself to you, but for now, let me do this by myself. I have agreed with Ivy to pay my debt.
He is not in shortage of money, so I can pay him back whenever I want to. Olive also lends her
saving for me. You don't have to worry that I will die paying off my debt.â
"What should I do with you? You would rather suffer alone than to let others help you. You won't
even accept me.â
He told his mother that he wouldn't love anyone else but Chloe Malan. Chloe Malan told him that
she wouldn't marry him until his mother accepted her sincerely. It made him feel like she could
leave anytime she wanted to.
Ivy Aldingtonâs snarky remarks were poisonous. Now, he was insecure.
No wonder his brother wanted to get a marriage certificate as soon as possible.
