âDoes your mom havenât had enough to make things difficult for Olive?â In spite of saying that, Chloe took a deep look at the man. Olive didnât love the wrong person. The moment he rushed into the hospital and his mother was in danger, but he didnât ignore Oliveâs feelings. He really regarded Olive as his treasure and didnât want her to be mistreated.
If she had such a person treated her like that, what was there to look more for the rest of her life?
âIâm sorry that my mom had done such excessive things to you,â Alan suddenly apologized.
At first, Chloe through that a few accusations were unavoidable. After all, it was life. If the old witch died like this, wouldnât she have become a murderer? That would make her taken aback.
She always felt like this man was arrogant. Except lowering his head for his beloved woman, he would be scornful towards others. But on the contrary, his apology made her feel ridiculous. âI was being impulsive too. I didnât know that your momâs health isnât good. I have said something harsh.â
âBut Aoba is serious this time,â Alan dropped a meaningful words and left.
Chloe smiled a bit at his back, then turned her head and looked at the blue sky outside the window.
Was that brat really serious? Perhaps! Since he arrived at the hospital until now, he had never asked about her.
It was as if she had become air.
Now, she couldnât enter the ward and she didnât want to. And Olive was with Alan, so she was unnecessary. Now that she thought about it, she was the idlest. She had nothing to do.
As she was about to go, her hand was suddenly grabbed from behind. Her body was trapped between the wall and a strong chest that she couldnât push away.
A warm voice tickled her ears as he said through gritted teeth, âWoman, is what you said true?â
Chloe stopped struggling and curled into a cold smile, âI donât intend to deny when I did it. Sheâs lucky that she doesnât die because of me.â
âWhy is your mouth still so poisonous?â Aoba said against her neck. He really wanted to bite off her delicate throat to see whether she would say something different again.
âA womanâs heart is the most poisonous, isnât it? Itâs a pity it canât kill people.â
Aoba sighed. He really wasnât this womanâs opponent when it came to arguing. He always had to try his best to prevent himself from jumping with angel because of her. Presumably, his mother had no advantage against her too.
âWoman, what you said just now, was it true?â
âWhatâs true and whatâs fake, Iâve said it. Iâve done it and Iâm not afraid to admit it. And Iâm not afraid to deny after I said it.â So what if that person fainted because of her? Who asked that old witch to be disrespectful as an elder? So why should she be acting polite?
âWoman, youâve said it. Youâre not afraid to deny after you said it. Then, you really want me, right?â
Aoba lowly chuckled.
Chloe was stunned between his arms. She thought that she would be criticize badly after she almost cause his mother to die. But at this moment, it was like someone had peeped into the secret of her heart. She didnât dare to directly look into his eyes as she was embarrassed. âYou even believe that I was angry with your mom? Idiot!â
âI donât care. Idiot, a foolâwhatever. Little fish, youâve said it so you need to be responsible of me for the rest of your life.â Aoba was the best in acting shameless.
âYour mom is more willing to be responsible of you for the rest of her life. Good boy.â Chloe patted his face, âListen to big sister. Go back to your mom. Big sis still have things to do and doesnât have time to play with you.â
âIf you insist on saying that Iâm playing, then I will be playing very seriously. I want to play with you for forever, just like my brother is serious with my sister-in-law. Little fish, why donât you believe in me? Is it because in your eyes Iâm the son of rich parents and useless?â He held up her face, his eyes were sincere and burning, and there were a hint of looking wounded.
Chloe couldnât bear such gaze. She wanted to hide but couldnât hide. She could only lower her eyes to prevent herself from being drawn into the abyss by his deep eyes. âSince youâve heard it all, you know well about your momâs attitude. Do you think weâre possible?
âWhy not? My brother can do it, so I can do it too. Sheâs my mother, I wonât leave her behind. But if I have to abandon my happiness, I canât do that. Little fish, my happiness is not in my momâs hand, but itâs in your heart. Since youâve said you want me, then Iâll be yours.â
Dominance was in the Hoyleâs genes. As soon as they were set on something, they would be as strong as Mountain Tai. That was why there was his brotherâs unchanging infatuation, his motherâs stubbornness, and his sisterâs unchanging teachings. As of him, he wouldnât look back when he had run up against a wall.
Love was a tormenting thing. His first taste was like a drug addiction. He couldnât quit and he didnât want to quit.
There was always only things he didnât want, not things he couldnât get. But he really couldnât get this woman. It seemed that his way of chasing the woman didnât work on her. In the end, he could only be cheeky.
Chloeâs heart beat faster. A life wasnât long, but it wasnât short either. Was this person really the place where she would be happy from life to death? Oaths were always too easy to say it aloud, yet they couldnât withstand the toss of reality.
There was a time when she didnât believe the word âloveâ anymore. But watching Olive being the happiest woman in the world under the care of Alan, she felt that she should believe in love.
She also desired to have such shoulders that she could let herself lean with ease. She didnât ask for wealth and nobility, she just wanted a heart that wouldnât separate until their hairs turned white. She didnât doubt that Aoba was serious at the moment, but she was afraid that she couldnât get through the process of being a happily married couple.
She had had enough of living under the humiliation of others.
Therefore, when the old witch used money to buy her family, she didnât hesitate to smash her back with banknotes, and she wouldnât paying back with respect. She wouldnât swallow her anger and be looked down anymore. What was there to be envious of the rich and wealthy? Those were nothing but bunch of rotten cotton wool.
It was when she was in a daze that Aobaâs kiss hit her lips. The warm touch made her want to hide, but found out that her body was already against the wall and couldnât step back.
She wanted to push him away, but she held him tighter until she couldnât breathe.
Aoba kissed her so deeply that she couldnât escape, as if he was kissing into her bones. Until a heavy cough was heard from behind them, reminding them that this was not a private place. Then he let go of her soft lips and turned his head to stare at the person, âWhat are you staring at? You never see people dating?â
Such a righteous roar, which made the person feel as if he had done something wrong. And hurriedly left with an embarrassed expression as the person was too embarrassed to say more.
Seeing the person walk away, Aoba curled his lips slightly. He reached out his hand and raised the womanâs lowering head in front of his chest. âIt turns out you can feel shy too. Your face is so red.â
Chloe immediately rewarded him with a vicious punch. Her red face was because she was suffocated by him just now. Stupid brat actually mocked her. She yelled at him, âLet go of me.â
He was still a rascal, âNo.â
The moment he let go, she would run. He wasnât that stupid. He knew that this was his last chance. He had finally heard what he wanted to hear. Although it contained heaviness, he still liked it. He had to strike while the iron was hot.
