The Innocent Wife of Scheming President Chapter 468: Courageously Capture a Thief

“That’s fine. Grandma can afford to waste it. This is the first time Grandma buys you something
because of my sincerity, you can’t refuse it, understand?”

“Oh.” Annie seemed to understand.

“Hudson, prepare the car and take me and this little lady to go shopping. Ada, you’re coming too.”

Mrs. Hoyle did things was simply swift. Soon, the driver had taken them out.

Ada sat on the passenger seat and looked at the grandma with her granddaughter at the back seat.
She secretly smiled and sneakily sent a text message to Olive, “The queen has fallen into the invincible
charm of the little witch Aniet Steele, and she has been upgraded to be the little lady of the Hoyle
Family. It seems like the queen won’t let her granddaughter go home tonight. You guys can enjoy your
own world.”

Reading the text message, Olive smiled.

Alan looked at her stupidly smiled, “What are you smiling at?”

Olive handed her phone over, “Look, your daughter succeeded in bewitching your mother. I’m a not as
good as my daughter, so jealous.”

Mrs. Hoyle led Annie to children’s clothing area. Her big hand pointed down, left and right. She chose a
bunch and asked the salesperson to pack them.

Annie refused, “Grandma, I only need to buy one.”

“Isn’t it good to buy more?” Mrs. Hoyle asked.



Annie deadpanned, “Dad has bought me a lot of clothes and I even haven’t wore them. And you buy
more clothes for me. Before I get to wear them, I’ll grow taller already and I can’t wear them anymore.
It’s a pity, isn’t it? So, it’s better to leave them to children who like them. Grandma, if you like to buy
clothes for me, you can wait Annie to get older next, next year later after I grow taller.”

Ada stood by admiring the little witch. At a young age, she could plan far ahead already. Could this be
said as she was doing things in the long-term plan?

“You really don’t want them?” Mrs. Hoyle was afraid that she was being a stranger with her, so that was
why she didn’t want them.

Annie determinedly shook her head, “I like that little red dress. Grandma, let’s buy this one?”

This child wasn’t a greedy child, Mrs. Hoyle thought sincerely.

When paying, Annie saw a suspicious man trailing behind an unfamiliar grandmother. His hands were
in his pants’ pockets on this hot day, but Annie still noticed the clip he was hiding in the bag with her
sharp eyes.

Big Beard once told her that it was thief’s tool for committing crimes. There might be a blade inside that
was used to cut leather bags and pockets.

She took out the mini slingshot that Kent Bai gave her from her small shoulder bag. She watched at the
man closely. As long as he dared to reach out, she dared to shot at his hand.

After Mrs. Hoyle paid it and carried the bag, she turned around and saw Annie’s strange behavior. Just
as she was about to step forward, Ada pulled her and whispered, “Look at how our little princess wisely
fights thief.”



It turned out that she had already noticed Annie’s weird behavior. When she followed the little girl’s
sight, she saw the sneaky thief.

As soon as thief’s hand with blade cut open the old lady’s purse, Annie’s slingshot hit his hand
accurately.

The thief’s hand shook and alarmed the old lady. When she looked bag, she saw the long slice on her
bag, then looked at the blade fell from the man’s hand. The man wanted to escape after being
exposed, so she immediately understood and shouted, “Thief, thief! Don’t let him get away.”

The thief ran fast and the old lady couldn’t even catch the hem of his clothes. But he ran to the wrong
direction as he ran towards Annie. Didn’t this mean he was throwing himself into the net?

No one would have thought that a six-year-old child would be dangerous. The thief didn’t even look at
her as he basically ignored her existence. But Annie was very clever. She wasn’t as big as the thief, but
she had keen eyes.

The thief thought that as long as he rushed to the front exit and ran out of the mall, he should be safe.
He wanted to rush out quickly before alarming the security.

But Annie gave him the most fatal trip when he was about to pass her.

The thief knocked over and slammed onto the hard floor that his eyes saw stars.

But it was important to escape. Even if he was dizzy, he needed to get up and run. It wasn’t fun to get
caught.

Seeing that he wanted to get up, Annie immediately jumped on the thief’s back and jumped twice. Her
small slingshot knocked on his head and she said, “Who asked you to steal from an old woman?”



Her shout had already alarmed the nearby clerks and customers. Two male customers instantly rushed
to hold him down.

The thief found himself being caught by a little kid and he said viciously, “You brat, don’t let me see you
again in the future.”

This kind of threat was really an insignificant thing for Annie, “Hmph, you’re a man who has hands and
legs, yet you want to steal from a grandma. It’s best not to let me see you again too. Mr. Thief, I’ll beat
you once if I see you once. I’ll beat your hands until they’re crippled.”

The onlookers were shocked by the little girl’s behavior and applauded.

“Whose child is this? So smart.”

“She’s so cute.”

“Young but courageous.”

When Mrs. Hoyle initially looked at the little girl sitting on the thief indifferently, she thought the girl was
a bit rough. But she was pretty happy when she heard these compliments. Even the little discomfort
she felt just now turned to very cute.

Then she thought of her agile posture when she jumped from the stairs guardrail that night without
injury, and began to believe what Aoba told her about the incredible things.

When this child grew up, she must not be easy. How could the Hoyle lose such an excellent
granddaughter? She could only be blamed for being blindfolded and confused.

The thief was taken away by the security guards who came after hearing the news and the old lady
came over to thank Annie.



Annie said, “Grandmother, you have to be careful with your bag from now on. Put it in front like me and
the thief won’t find a chance to act!”

The old lady stroked the little girl’s face, “Oh, my. Whose little princess is this? So cute and mature.
Who taught you this?”

Annie answered, “My mommy taught me!”

The old lady praised, “Your mommy is amazing. She taught you to be such a brave and smart little girl.”

This remark slightly moved Mrs. Hoyle’s heart. Everyone said like mother, like daughter. A child wasn’t
born with knowing everything. Obviously, Olive’s education was successful.

Maybe she should try to accept that woman?

Mrs. Hoyle felt complicated. She said so confident before, leaving no leeway. Did she need to bow her
head to admit her mistake? Wouldn’t this extinguish her authority?

No!

But if she didn’t accept that woman, her son wouldn’t come back. If her son wouldn’t come back, she
was afraid that her granddaughter couldn’t come back either.

This child still held the name Steele. Alan had been with that woman for so long, yet he didn’t change
the child’s surname. She really didn’t know what her son was thinking.

On the way back to the Hoyle’s residence, Annie said to Mrs. Hoyle, “Grandma, I want to call Olive.”

Mrs. Hoyle frowned slightly, “Do you always call your mommy by her name?”

“Yeah. Sometimes I call her mommy, sometimes I call her Olive. I’ll even call her Olie, Ivie, and mommy
will let me. She won’t be angry. She said mother and daughter aren’t just mother and daughter, they



can also be friends or best friends. They can whisper and share little secrets. So, I’ll mostly tell mommy
what little secrets I have.”

This kind of teaching by Olive was quite special, Mrs. Hoyle thought secretly.

“You’re still so young, what little secret do you have?”

Annie asked back, “Can’t children have secrets?”

“You can.” Mrs. Hoyle stared at her big watery eyes. She was very lovable.

“Grandma, can you lend me your phone for me to make a call?” Annie turned back to the topic.

“Why? Are you afraid that she won’t let you spend the night at grandma’s house?” Mrs. Hoyle was a
little unhappy.

“No. It’s my dad who didn’t let me come and said he would take me to Disneyland. But Olive said, let
me make my own choice. I either can go to Disney to play or go to grandma’s house,” Annie told the
truth.

“You chose to come to grandma’s house yourself?” Mrs. Hoyle was a little surprised by this.

She originally thought that Olive must had scheming something to allow the child to come over and she
wanted to trap her with the child first.

Annie said, “Yes. Grandma, have you forgotten? I said I would discuss with you the issue of how Olive
take care a child, so I came.”

“Yeah. I know this. She does take good care of you,” Mrs. Hoyle also had to admit this. How could a
child who wasn’t taken good care being this good?



“Grandma, Olive is a good woman. Really, I’m not lying to you. Children can’t lie. Once they lie, their
nose will become so long and it’s ugly,” Annie said with a frown, squeezing her cheeks.

Mrs. Hoyle couldn’t help but laughed, “When we get home later, grandma will call your mom
personally.”

The little girl’s eyes lit up, “Really?”

“Really. Grandma’s nose will grow long too if I lie,” Mrs. Hoyle smiled.

With a child by her side, time passed so fast. One day had passed in a blink of an eye. Now, she didn’t
need to worry about the company’s affairs. She was completely free now. She didn’t know how long her
two sons could stay in Jiangcheng. Her daughter was about to fly alone too. In a huge old mansion,
she was left alone and grew lonelier.

When Olive received Mrs. Hoyle’s call, Kent was pulling Alan and her to sing in the KTV with his group
of men.

She laughed at him because he had excess energy and nowhere to vent.

Kent looked at them both with a smirk, “Of course, I’m not like your man. A gentle companion every
night, intoxicated and never awakened from dreams. I finally found a woman, yet you have to keep her
work at that hotel. I haven’t settled that with you. Don’t try to run away from drinks tonight. I won’t be
Bai if I don’t get you two drunk.”

Olive smiled, “Sure. You can have any surname you want. I’ll go outside to pick up a phone call first.”

The number was unfamiliar. It was Jiangcheng’s landline number.

Mrs. Hoyle’s cold voice came from the other end, “Is this Olive Steele?”



Olive smiled a little, “Yes. Hello, Mrs. Hoyle!”

“Annie will stay the night at my place, so she won’t go back to your home.”

This wasn’t a discussion at all, but Olive wasn’t angry. It took a while for someone who hated you to
suddenly talk to you in a gentle and mild way.

“As long as Annie is willing, I have no objection.”
