The Innocent Wife of Scheming President -
Chapter 37: Going on a Business Trip with Me
Olive called home at first and asked her mother to pack up some springand summer clothes for her. Then she came to his designated room.She always felt that the bedroom was a private place, not a place whereoutsiders could go in and out freely. But he was so confident to let shetouch his things. Has he always been used to it and let the assistanttake care of his life?
She opening the wardrobe, there were not many clothes inside. Butevery clothes was made by hand. The cuffs of shirts were set withdelicate gold buttons, engraved with two letters OA, which could beseen faintly.
She has a upset look. It must be the acronym of Ophelia and Alan. Olivecouldn't help laughing bitterly. Only she was a fool. She rememberedhim in her heart for five years. He had already been with a beautifulwoman and forgotten her existence.
She stuffed his clothes into the suitcase and, as she was about to closethe closet door, her eyelids jumped fiercely. On the right-most hanger,there was a familiar shirt.
The shirt, ironed stiffly and without any wrinkles. Comparing to those ofthe finely crafted clothes in the superior material, it was so cheap that itcould not reach the stage. It hang quietly in the corner, like Cinderellawho huddled in the corner at a court ball.
Olive's fingers, touched it trembly.
When it sold at a discount in the mall, she bought this checked shirt forless than 100 dollar and gave it to him as a birthday gift. It wasunexpected that he still kept it.
"You seem to be particularly interested in that shirt.” Alan, like a ghost,quietly appeared behind her. He looked at her in an inquiry.
Olive's body was slightly stiff, but she soon regained her composure,pulled her lips and turned around with a faint smile. "Seeing anordinary shirt among a pile of valuable clothes, I am just a littlesurprised. Mr. Hoyle always seem to cherish it."
"It was given to me by a very important person in my life.” Alan lookedat her quietly. Her face always covered a mist that could not bedistinguished between true and false. When facing him, her tone was sorelaxed and natural that it seemed that she was really not the personconcerned.
But just now, he clearly saw that she had been preoccupied with theshirt for a long time. Now, she apologized lightly, "I'm sorry. I touchedyour thing that it shouldn't be touched.”
"It's none of your business.” He put the dress in his suitcase andseemed to carry it everywhere.
Olive's heart thumped.
Back home, her mother asked, "How come you suddenly have to go onbusiness?"
"It is the company's arrangement. I just received the news, mom. I maybe going for several days. During this period, Annie will have to let youand dad take care of her."
"What do you say, you child? We are Annie's grandparents. We shouldtake care of her. When you get there, remember to call back to let usknow you are safe. Don't be too tired."
"I see.” Olive held her mother in her arms and refused to let her godownstairs because of the cold weather. She went out with herluggage.
Alan opened his briefcase and laptop as soon as he got on the plane. Itseemed that he had endless work to do.
There were not many people in the first class cabin. They sat in twosand threes, some sleeping and some talking in a low voice.
She was left aside by him as if she had only come to accompany him.The beautiful stewardess came round enthusiastically for several times.He only needed a cup of coffee. His voice was cool, and he said hedidn't like being disturbed. The stewardess's beauty plan failed and leftdisappointedly. She dared not suffer setbacks again.
Olive sat in a huge chair and looked at the scene with a littleamusement. Then she looked at his busy appearance and heoccasionally frowned when he looked at the information.
He always had luck in love everywhere with his evil and charming face.The cup of coffee was put on the table in front of him until it was coldand he did drink it.
Olive was bored. She took a magazine and read it in her hand, but shecouldn't read a word.
Did every woman has a little vanity? Knowing that the shirt which shebought was carefully preserved by him, the joy quietly spread in theheart, like so years of concern having a landing point, like sugar meltingin the heart.
The plane seemed to encounter a small airflow, slightly bouncingseveral times. Several pages of information fell on the ground. Olivehelped him pick up and pass it to him.
Alan took over and said thanks faintly.
Olive whispered, "What can I do for you?"
"No." He did not raise his head
Olive laughed embarrassingly, "Looking at the big boss busy around,but I'm idle as an employee. It's really a bit out of habit.”
"If you're really bored, go to sleep. When you get to Sanya, you'll bebusy.” Alan took a sip of his coffee and frowned because of the coldtemperature.
"I'll ask the stewardess to give you another one.”
"Thank you!" Well, he didn't refuse it. He just had an indescribablecourtesy.
They arriving at Sanya Airport, Dave arrived by the previous plane andwas waiting for him at the exit.
Alan nodded to him and sat in the business car. Olive followed him andsat beside Alan.
The car was heading in an unknown direction
Alan closed his eyes as soon as he got on the car, and his tiredness washard to hide. Everyone knew that Alan has been very successful inrecent years. He could get everything that he wanted. Even if she wasnot around him, she knew that he has paid more time and hardnessthan ordinary people. Even he was almost dead.
