Chapter 394: Patience Has Limit

When Ophelia saw that the child who bumped into her was Annie, she was startled.

Sometimes, Ophelia would thought whether that bitch Olive tied Alan because of their child. So, she
hated the little face in front of her and glared at her.

“What? Do you know this kid?” Mrs. Hoyle asked her with a stranger expression.

Mrs. Hoyle didn’t know that the child in front of her was her granddaughter who she had refused to
admit because she had never thought of admitting Olive’s child to her family, so she had never cared.

It wasn’t surprising that she didn’t know what the child looked like.

Ophelia didn’t know if it was Alan who bought this child here. She didn’t dare to act rashly and she
didn’t want the old woman meet the child. She shook her head and said, “I don’t know her. Mother, let’s
go.”

From behind her, Annie said, “Auntie Ophelia, you are a hypocrite.”

Mrs. Hoyle frowned. When she looked back, the child had already hopped away. Following her
direction, she saw her two sons sitting at a table with the women she didn’t agree with; they were
chatting and laughing. Especially when the child returned to them, they seemed happier. Alan looked at
the child with a soft gaze, and even carried her to sit at his thighs, talking to her ears.

Even she had never seen how the child looked like, in this situation, Mrs. Hoyle could already
understand who that child was.

Ophelia’s face changed and wanted to explain something, yet Mrs. Hoyle already walked over to that
table. She didn’t know whether she should follow or not.



The arrival of Mrs. Hoyle obviously disturbed the warm atmosphere at the table. The two sons greeted
her, Olive smiled at her, and Chloe snorted coldly without even looking at her.

Alan touched his daughter’s head, “Baby, call grandma.”

Olive had no objection. Mrs. Hoyle was Annie’s grandmother, so she should be called grandma. Even if
she didn’t admit the child as her granddaughter, she was still Alan’s mother.

But Chloe didn’t think so, “Annie, no. She doesn’t even admit you as her granddaughter, it’s not
necessary.”

But Annie still jumped off her dad’s lap and walked to Mrs. Hoyle. She said, “I know you don’t like me
and mommy, but you are daddy’s mother. I like dad, so at our first meeting, I still have to greet you. Hi
grandma!”

Mrs. Hoyle originally thought that the child who raised in such family would have the usual kid’s temper,
but the little girl before her was generous. She was young but not timid. She even dared to look directly
into her eyes and talk. Her face was likable too.

She didn’t know whether she should answer or continue with her cold face.

At this moment, Ophelia had armed herself and walked over, “What a coincidence. You guys are eating
here too.”

Chloe sneered, “Do we disappoint you? Buddha doesn’t bless you to kill us as we’re still alive before
your eyes.”

Ophelia’s face didn’t change, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“You don’t know? Then continue to pretend. Let’s see how long you’re going to pretend.” Chloe put
down her chopsticks loudly. “I’m full. Waiter, takeaway.”



They were enjoying their dinner before. She didn’t expect to feel pissed nearing the end. She felt upset
seeing this woman.

Seeing her acting this way, Olive gently shook her head. It was not worth it to get angry,

The waiter came over and packed a few untouched dishes into boxes, then Alan paid the bill.

Aoba glared at Ophelia, “Ophelia, I’ve treated you as a sister for more than 20 years. I hope this matter
has nothing to do with you.”

Ophelia stared at Olive and Chloe angrily, and sneered, “You two are good at driving. It was you guys
who don’t drive carefully, but you blame others. You turn things upside down. How shameless.”

Chloe wasn’t angry but laughed, “Who ask you to have too many previous convictions. You are the
most suspicious and had the best motives. You earn nothing from my death, but if Olive dies, you’ll
think you have a chance. But Miss Meyer, I think you haven’t accepted the reality. Alan Hoyle doesn’t
love you, not even a little bit. He’s now Olive’s husband—a rightful one. You’re just a shameless third
person, a shameful third person who ruined their marriage.”

“Olive is the one who is a shameless third person. She steal my fiancé.” Ophelia flushed with anger.
She wanted to jump at her to destroy this woman’s mouth.

Chloe sneered disdainfully, “Then let me ask Miss Meyer. When Alan and Olive was dating, where
were you? You guys didn’t even have a relation. Oh, yes, I forgot. Childhood friends. You guys grew up
together. But did Alan have a good time with you? Was he your boyfriend? I think you’re delusional. If
you are, you should go to hospital and have a check. Not only you had destroyed their relationship, you
even shamelessly claimed to be his first wife. I’ve seen shameless people, but not as shameless as
you. I think you’re annoying and should stay far away. Don’t embarrass yourself here. What a waste of
breath talking to you.”



Chloe’s sharp-mouth was notoriously top-notch. As soon as she used the sword in her mouth, it would
definitely the most painful place.

It could be said that Aoba was seriously had submitted to her. No wonder his mother was very pissed
at her until she fainted; no wonder she always stamped at his foot with anger every time they
quarreled. Her mouth was born a winner.

Ophelia was speechless by her words. She couldn’t even butt in. In the end, she had to cry for help
from Mrs. Hoyle, “Mother, even Aoba has such woman to bully me.”

Alan simply said, “She’s only telling the truth.”

Mrs. Hoyle’s face had turned upset too. “Alan, Aoba, follow me.”

“If you have anything to say, just say it here,” the two brothers said in unison.

Olive was tactful and held on Annie. “Chloe and I will go outside and wait for you guys.”

“No need.” Alan’s palm wrapped her other hand, transferring warmth.

“Can’t even a mother say a few words to you guys?” Mrs. Hoyle was furious and her hand covered her
chest unconsciously in panicked.

Upon seeing this, Ophelia graciously stroked her back. “Mother, don’t get worked up. Don’t get angry.”

Annie silently poured a glass of water and handed it over. Big round eyes stared at her like a clear
spring water.

Mrs. Hoyle was taken aback. While she was thinking should she received it or not, Ophelia pushed the
child away. “Go away. Who ask you to act?”



The water spilled on Annie. Alan’s eyes immediately darkened and he swung a slap so loud. In an
instant, five fingers print was printed on her delicate face.

Chloe really felt satisfied by the slap. She truly deserved that and she should have gotten it since a
long time ago. Who didn’t know that Annie was Alan’s dearly loved person.

Ophelia obviously didn’t believe that she had been hit. After a long time, she finally spoke, “Alan, did
you hit me?”

“Ophelia Meyer, there’s a limit to my patience for you.” Alan’s whole person was cold that even Mrs.
Hoyle couldn’t help by tremble. She watched him pick up his daughter and hold on Olive in one hand,
he walked out of their sight without a word.

Aoba also took Chloe’s hand. When he passed his mother, he stopped for a moment. “Mother, even if
you don’t like adults, children are innocent. And you could see that sis-in-law has never taught her child
to hate you. Unlike some people who are great at being an instigator.”

Walking out of the restaurant, Alan’s family doctor and driver were waiting by the door.

“Madam, are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?”

“I’m fine.” Mrs. Hoyle waved her hand weakly and got into the car. She leaned back on the seat quietly.

Ophelia couldn’t help being furious, “Mother, Aoba and Alan ignore you more and more because of
those two women.”

She wanted the old woman to feel deeply that her sons’ rebellion against their mother was because of
Olive and Chloe. With this, the old woman’s hatred towards those two would increase.



But she didn’t know that the innocent pair of eyes kept flashing behind Mrs. Hoyle’s eyes. The cup of
warm water had moved her heart and she didn’t know why. But she felt that if Ophelia hadn’t pushed
her away, maybe she would have received it.

This time, she also felt that Ophelia was being too much.

She didn’t understand. Shouldn’t she hate that child too? Didn’t she had been rejecting the child? How
could she turn soft with a word ‘grandma’ and a cup of warm water?

Had she been alone for too long?

She sighed deeply. “Ophelia, let mother rest for a while.”

Even though Ophelia’s resentment in her heart was overwhelming, as soon as she heard the words,
she fell silent and pursed her lips.

The doctor glanced back, “Madam, if you feel sick, I can examine you first.”

“No. I know my own body.” She was tired, physically and mentally.

Her sons had grown up. Their wings were strong now. She couldn’t control them anymore.

Sometimes she wondered had she really done wrong. Both of her sons already said that it was her who
had forced them to leave.

Wasn’t her force was for their goodness?

Olive Steele had ever said a sentence that explained the bottom of her heart. She said that everything
she did was because she loved her sons deeply and considered the best future for her children as a
mother.



In the other side, Alan went to a children’s clothing store and bought a set of clothes for Annie to
change.

“Baby, were you scared just now?” He was afraid of leaving a shadow on the child.

Annie shook her head. “No. But I hate that auntie.”

Chloe cooed next to her, “Next time use your Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms to slap her.”

“Enough. Don’t teach the kid bad things.” Olive shot her a blank look, then turned to Alan. “Honey, your
mother’s complexion doesn’t look so good. How about the two of you go back and see her? Talk to her
a bit. Don’t clash as soon as you guys meet.”

“Don’t worry. She has doctor and will take care of her.”

Aoba also said, “My mother can’t turn back. It’s useless to talk nice with her. Like what my sister has
said, just let her be.”

Em… Olive was a little surprised. What kind of daughter was she?
