CHAPTER 512: NEEDING PRACTICE FIRST
When Mrs. Hoyle met a good daughter-in-law, she didn't know how to cherish her. Sooner or later, Mrs. Hoyle would regret it.
"Who's your Mom?" Mrs. Hoyle felt awkward when Olive suddenly called her mother.
Olive didn't seem to care about Mrs. Hoyle's cold and even slightly snarky tone, so she's still smiling brightly. "It doesn't matter, as we will be a family sooner or later. You are my husband's mother, my child's grandmother, and my mother-in-law, so I should call you Mom. Even if you don't answer me, I can practice first."
The corners of Alan's mouth twitched as Olive said that she could practice first, and he wanted to thank Olive for coming up with these words, while his wife was just getting cuter every day.
He went over and untied her apron. "You can practice later because we have to fly back after breakfast."
"Alan, I wanted to ask you that did you got Olive for your wife or did you marry into and live with Olive's family? Why are you always following Olive? So what is the matter?" Mrs. Hoyle exclaimed disapprovingly.
Alan smiled dryly. "Didn't you make this happen? ..."
Olive jabbed Alan with her finger. "Mom, Alan didn't marry into and live with the Steele family, but he is now working in Luo City, so you can come with us to live in Luo City for some time. I don't mind you staying longer with us if it's all right with you."
Mrs. Hoyle was surprised by Olive's invitation, but her words were still ungrateful. "I'm afraid I'll have a heart attack if I live with you."
Olive smiled and raised her finger above her head as a pledge. "I can promise you that you won't hate living in Luo City after a while, so we will be waiting for you in Luo City, while the baby in my belly, your grandchild, will be waiting for you in Luo City."
"Do you mean to tell me that I shall come and live with you?" Mrs. Hoyle replied crossly. The problem that had been bothering her all night was just solved by Olive's simple words.
"We will respect your wishes, as we shall be glad if you will come and live with us, but if you do not like this idea, we shall come home and see you often. Anyway, it's easy for us to get back and forth because the transportation is very convenient."
"I don't want you to pretend to be nice."
Olive wasn't upset or angry. "You may doubt my words, and I believe one day you will really know what kind of person I am, but I wish you could reconsider my offer."
Although Mrs. Hoyle said no, she had been hesitating in her heart. She's afraid that if she kept rejecting Olive, she really wouldn't be able to go with them in the end, so she snorted. "If I go with you, there will be only a few rooms in your house, so it will be quite a squeeze for all of us. Shall I go and squeeze into those rooms with your family?"
When Aoba heard that, he jumped to answer her. "This isn't easy to solve? Didn't I buy a house above them? So Mom, you can live in my house if you like. Besides, my brother also has a villa in Luo City, so if you want to live in a villa, you can go to the villa, and you don't have to be shy, while if you don't like them, you can choose a house you like, and ask my brother to buy it for you, for that is what he should do to you as your son."
"I don't know you? You bad boy. You want me to go with them, so you don't have anyone nagging you. You hate your Mom, don't you?" Mrs. Hoyle glared at her youngest son.
This was called getting caught in the crossfire. Aoba wailed in his heart, "Mrs. Hoyle, are you a little self-aware?" But he didn't dare to stimulate "Grand empress dowager" by saying such words directly, so he said with a shy smile. "Mom, I want you to meet your other daughter-in-law, too."
"Don't mention that woman to me because even if I had accepted your brother's woman, I couldn't possibly have accepted Chloe." Mrs. Hoyle yelled at Aoba, but when she finished, she realized that she had accidentally said what she was thinking, so she was angry and resentful, and she wanted to slap herself.
Ada sniggered, patting her brothers on the shoulder, as she was full of comfort as well as sympathy. "There is hope for you, elder brother, while younger brother, you continue to work hard."
Olive also chuckled, compressed her lips, and thought that sometimes Mrs. Hoyle was also lovely, but Chloe may have to walk longer than her, so Chloe had to endure.
But never mind, together, they would break down the wall of the indifference of Mrs. Hoyle.
As they boarded the plane, Olive glanced back.
Alan patted her on the head. "What are you looking at?"
Olive smiled. "Nothing."
She just wondered how long it would take before Mrs. Hoyle could resist moving to Luo City to live with them.
Alan seemed to know what was on her mind. "Don't worry. Mrs. Hoyle will follow us, and it's only a matter of time, but I'm afraid I'll have to make you feel wronged again."
Olive put her hands in his palms, and the palms of his hands were warm and seemed to give her strength. "As long as I can be with you, I won't be wronged. Besides, Mrs. Hoyle is in a very special
situation right now, so we have to be patient with her. Don't worry about me because I can handle it. You have to believe that your wife is not as ignorant as she used to be and that I have Little Baby Hoyle in my belly, so Mrs. Hoyle will be thinking of the baby."
Alan didn't want to gamble with the baby because it made him feel so bad, but obviously, there was no better way to do this, so they used the baby as a starting point because the baby would soothe Mrs. Hoyle's irritated state of mind. Their unexpected baby made his mother show a kind of tenderness and affection that he had not seen for so long. At the same time, they could also use the baby to let his mother know Olive better.
From takeoff to landing, Olive just took a nap.
She thought it over and it seemed that she was very sleepy at this time. Pregnant women were prone to drowsiness, but she didn't realize she'd become drowsy this early.
When Alan woke her up, she was drowsily rubbing her eyes. She was acting so cute without realizing this so that Alan wanted to carry her off the plane and hide her where no one else could see her and only he could appreciate her cute.
Was it true that pregnant women had a natural charm and glow that fascinated and endeared people? Anyway, that's how he felt.
But his darling had risen by herself from her seat. She shook involuntarily, blinking her eyes, and when she opened her eyes again, she was bright and shining.
"We're going home." Walking out of the airport, she threw out her arms, let out a shout of joy, and looked radiant.
Alan always felt that this was the only city that gave him the sense of paradise on earth.
As soon as they entered the house and when Annie saw the figure of Olive, Annie dropped The Littles and jumped straight at them.
Alan usually looked at the interaction between Olive and Annie with a warm smile, but today, he bent down, picking Annie up before she even touched Olive.
All of a sudden, Annie was just kicking in the air. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
Alan had to warn Annie. "Darling, you mustn't do that again."
Annie was confused for a moment, so she tilted her head to look at him. "I've always welcomed you and Mom home like this, so what's wrong with that?"
Alan replied. "There's nothing wrong with what you're doing, but your Mom has a baby in her belly, so you can't rush at her like that again, and you should be more careful in the future."
A very bright light suddenly came into Annie's eyes. "You mean my Mom has my baby brother or baby sister in her belly?"
