The Innocent Wife of Scheming President novel Chapter 77

"Since that's not the reason, I'll think you agree. Please report to the hotel next Monday. Take advantage of these two days to have a good rest because you'll be busy in the future."Mr. Geve made the decision for her.

Olive thought, looking for a job was nothing more than looking for a good boss, a good career and the high salary. Since Mr. Geve could satisfy her needs and they were familiar to each other, there’s no need for her to give up the chance and to find another. So she nodded, "OK!"

Mr. Geve smiled happily, "In fact, in the world, in addition to picking up the moon and the stars, there’s nothing we couldn’t do except that you dare not to do it."

Olive nodded like a student. "As long as you are brave enough you can get anything you want.”

"You are right." Mr. Geve smiled and agreed.

"Mr Geve, Hengdu has developed very well. Why did you suddenly sell it?" She finally got the chance to ask the question that she has thought a few days.

The smile on Mr. Geve's face gradually disappeared, and the feeling of loneliness occurred little by little. He long sighed. "Well, all in all, it's all because of my son. He had become such a bad guy. During the period when I went to the United States, he went to Macau to gamble and squandered all the money of the company."

Olive took a breath. That man was really a fool that couldn’t compare with his father.

"That’s why Hoyle Group got it?"

In fact, when Alan tried to test her step by step, she was worried that Hengdu's acquisition must because of her. Although this kind of idea was a little self-praise, at that time she really couldn’t find the reason that Hengdu to be sold.

"It was strange. There was no sign when Hoyle Group wanted to acquire Hengdu.

Olive was shocked. "Are you suspicious of Hoyle's hostile takeover? Before that, they set up a trap for your son.”

Mr. Geve shook his head. "That's what I can't understand. If it's a hostile takeover, how can Hoyle buy Hengdu with twice of the market price? It's the market price before the accident.Otherwise, I couldn't have bought Angel Holiday Hotel instead. Moreover, Alan promised not to change the name of Hengdu and not to lay off Hengdu employees without any reason."

Olive was also confused. She didn’t understand whether Alan was mean to do it.

Oh, why did she always think of him?

But looking at the expression of Mr. Geve, that was reluctant to sell. Hengdu was like a child raised by him. How could he easily give up it.

Mr. Geve saw that she was looking at him. He smiled "Don't look at me like that. The old went then the new could come. Hengdu was intended for that bastard boy. Since he didn't know how to treasure it, it’s OK to sell it. I leave him abroad now, and cut off his source of income, and let him rely on himself. I can protect him once but I can’t do it all the time."

How could a father be so cruel as to leave his son alone if he wasn’t utterly disappointed?

Olive did not know how to comfort the man who had a son when he was in his middle-aged. She could only say, "Maybe, after he has suffered a little abroad, he will think of your good, and then he will be better.”

"I don't know if I have that good fortune until he's reformed." Mr. Geve waved his hand, seemingly without much hope.

However, there was no father who didn’t want his son to be good. Hope his son could understand him one day.

"I wish I had such a cute daughter as you. Maybe, these are all rewards." Mr. Geve sighed abruptly, as if he remembered something about the past.

"Why do you say that?"

Mr. Geve was silent for a moment and slowly said, "In fact, Ellison is not my biological son."

"Ah?" Olive was surprised and looked at the man in front of her.

"Twenty years ago, my wife gave birth to a daughter, and today she is as old as you. But in those days, our parents was preferred for boys. My wife was not my mother's favorite type. My mom was making trouble to her all the time. The atmosphere in my family was very terrible. It was until my wife was pregnant that got better. My eldest sister-in-law had three daughters before, which made my parents very unsatisfied. Later, my eldest sister-in-law divorced my eldest brother because she couldn't stand my mother's acrimony and weakness, and didn't want several children to be suffered. In those days, a divorced woman with three daughters it must be very hard. Horror was that since my wife became pregnant, my mother prayed God to give us a boy every day which made my wife and me had a harder life. I love my wife very much. She is very kind and will never alienate me from my mom. But another one is my mom...”

He did not say that Olive could imagine the story. In order to stop his parents and made his wife's life better, instead of going back to his eldest brother's tragedy, they replaced the baby girl with the bought baby boy.
