The Innocent Wife of Scheming President Chapter 479: Should Annie share Alan's last name or Olive's last name

"Don't worry, because you'll have plenty of opportunities to see my old room in the future." Alan said
slowly.

Olive glared at him. "That's your Mom, so how long are you going to keep her like this? Don't overdo it."

It's like Alan didn't care about his own business, but Olive was worried about him very much because
Olive didn't want Alan to have a reputation for being unfilial. Besides, Mrs. Hoyle was too lonely to be
alone.

Of course, Mrs. Hoyle didn't need her sympathy, but she felt like she couldn't do something so
heartless, such as asking Alan to break off the relationship with Mrs. Hoyle.

"Don't worry, because I have my own plan." It's not that he's hard-hearted as he just wanted to be done
once and for all.

The contradiction between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was an eternal topic, and the knowledge
here was too deep. Everyone knew that a happy family meant wealth, but while he knew Olive wouldn't
pick a quarrel, he couldn't be sure that Mrs. Hoyle wouldn't pick a quarrel.

Now it was because he had a step to walk down, but Mrs. Hoyle only loved her granddaughter, Annie,
who was once disliked by Mrs. Hoyle. Therefore, for Annie's sake, Mrs. Hoyle suddenly showed a little
mercy to Olive, but Mrs. Hoyle didn't necessarily accept Olive with all her heart. What he wanted was
for his Mom to be able to let go of all her prejudices, opening her heart to Olive and Annie.

"If my guesses were right, my Mom wouldn't have let Annie come back with us today."

As Mrs. Hoyle took Annie to Disney World early in the morning, Mrs. Hoyle just wanted to get away
from them, because they're here to pick up Annie. He could guess exactly what Mrs. Hoyle was
thinking.



Sure enough, when he called Mrs. Hoyle, telling her that he wanted to pick up Annie, Mrs. Hoyle didn't
hesitate to say. "When are you going to change Annie's last name?"

“Change Annie's last name?” Alan frowned deeply since it was a real headache.

He knew that this would be the first problem once Mrs. Hoyle accepted her little granddaughter, Annie,
but since he had promised the Steele family so readily, he couldn't go back on his promise. However,
he may not be able to convince Mrs. Hoyle so easily, and maybe Mrs. Hoyle would take it out on Olive.

"You're dating Olive, so do you still want your daughter to share her grandfather's last name?"
Sometimes Mrs. Hoyle thought she had no idea what her son was thinking.

Since he wanted to be with Olive, she acquiesced from the moment she learned the truth, but that
didn't mean she's allowed to not change Annie's last name.

"Mom, didn't you say you wouldn't let Annie be included in the family tree of the Hoyle family? Since
you don't want Annie to be included in the family tree of the Hoyle family, why do you need to change
Annie's last name?"

How sad it would be for Olive's parents if Annie changed her last name. Annie, their granddaughter,
had been brought up by them, and Annie had been a part of every aspect of their lives. Without their
tolerance to accept and care for the child, he was afraid that Olive would be more difficult because
Olive didn't get married but was pregnant, while Annie couldn't be so healthy and happy when she was
a child.

When Mrs. Hoyle heard her son's words, she almost lost her breath. She was wrong, and wasn't that
enough?

But as a proud woman and an elder, she could not bow her head and say that she was wrong since it
would be very difficult for her.



"Alan, do you have to go against your Mom like this?"

Everyone said that they should bring up sons to support parents in their old age, but why did her sons
forget their mother once they married?

It's not that Alan didn't want his mother, but it's just that he couldn't be ungrateful because Olive's
parents have been his great benefactors.

"Mom, I'll be honest with you. Annie's last name is Steele, and that's not going to change because it's
my compensation to Olive and the Steele family."

"So you're going to give the child, who belongs to the Hoyle family, the same last name as the other
family?"

"The Steele family is not the other family. Let's not forget that Annie was brought up by the Steele
family." He knew that even though Mrs. Hoyle accepted Annie, she still didn't think of Olive as part of
her family, and if she thought of Olive as part of her family, she wouldn't talk like that.

At first, she said that the Hoyle family didn't want Annie, but now she finally found the advantages of
Annie, so she wanted Annie back. What he hated most about his Mom was selfishness.

"I heard that Olive is not the biological daughter of the Steele family, so the Hoyle family can
compensate the Steele family with a huge amount of money......"

Alan interrupted Mrs. Hoyle before Mrs. Hoyle could finish speaking. "You have investigated Olive
thoroughly, so you should know that Olive's parents don't care about the money, because they live a
simple life and they are honest."

Mrs. Hoyle was about to explode, as she had lowered her position to accept Annie, but she had not
expected to be so unappreciated by Alan. "Well, since the Steele family is so perseverant and



determined, Annie, the child of the Steele family, will not be able to inherit any of the money of the
Hoyle family."

If Mrs. Hoyle wanted to threaten Alan with this, she underestimated her son too much. What's more,
the Hoyle's Group was now in charge of him, so if he wanted to leave the Hoyle's Group to Annie, no
one could stop him.

"You can rest assured about this because my child will inherit everything I have. As for the Hoyle's
Group, I will leave it to the children of Aoba and Ada."

Mrs. Hoyle felt very heavy in her heart. "Have you planned this all along?"

Alan replied causally. "Not that I planned it, but that you have gradually brought it to this point, starting
with your own planning years ago. I can't change and I don't want to change."

"What do you mean? Do you blame your mother? So now you punish your mother in this way, right?"
Mrs. Hoyle had no outlet for her anger because she knew she had gone too far, but didn't she just do it
for his own good?

As his mother, her good intentions were taken as evil by him, so how could she not be angry? And
even if he didn't approve of her, could he not understand that she had done for him with the best
intentions?

She could not tell friend from enemy, because she mistook the enemy's ambition for the friend's
kindness, but he had never mentioned a word to her before that, hadn't he? He said he was afraid of
being discovered by the enemy, but she saw that he was preparing the ground for his present plan.
There's nothing she could do about it, as what has been done couldn't be undone, so now she's forced
to accept it.



She didn't know if that's what Olive meant. In her opinion, Olive has grown into a very sophisticated
woman compared to the simple woman five or six years ago. Now that Olive was so calm, even though
she had met a lot of people, she couldn't see through Olive, so she thought that Olive wasn't a simple
woman anymore.

Since Olive could keep Alan from forgetting her, how could Olive be worse than any other woman?

Alan didn't want to argue with his mother, but by Mrs. Hoyle's nature, if he gave her a little hope for
something, she would stick with him, while he didn't like the fact that Mrs. Hoyle still treated Olive like
an outsider.

In fact, whatever Annie's last name was, Annie was her granddaughter. If she thought of Annie as
someone else's child just because Annie shared Olive's last lame, he felt that her love for Annie was
too narrow.

"Mom, since you know that Olive is the adopted child of the Steele family, you should know that Annie
is important to the Steele family, and they are closer to each other than blood relatives. Annie is the
child you never wanted, but she is a treasure to the Steele family. They had only one child, Olive, so
they had only one hope, Annie, while the Hoyle Family still has Aoba and Ada, as their children will also
belong to the Hoyle family."

"Since the Steele family loves kids so much, you and Olive could just have another baby for them."

"When Olive gave birth to Annie, she had a difficult labor and was bleeding heavily, so she almost died
on the operating table. I'm not going to put her through that again, so Annie will be my only child."

"Do you mean to make me die of angry? You......" In a rage, Mrs. Hoyle slapped the phone against the
wall, disintegrating it and dropping it to the ground like a mutilated corpse. If she listened to him any
longer, she feared she would die of anger.



What did she do wrong? Would she have done it years ago if she had known this was going to
happen?

Perhaps this was karma.

She felt as if she could not breathe, placed her hand over the place where her heart was beating, and
sat down slowly without moving for a long time.

When she calmed down a little, she felt small hands pulling at her clothes behind her. She turned her
head, seeing Annie's face in front of her.

When Mrs. Hoyle saw Annie and thought of what Alan had said, she was so angry that her face was as
cold as ice.

Annie uncontrollably let go of her hands, and then Annie's hands slipped off Mrs. Hoyle's clothes.

Mrs. Hoyle realized that the way she lost her temper scared Annie, which was even worse for winning
Annie's favor. It would make Annie feel distant and afraid of her, so she reluctantly tried to smile, trying
to relax, and then showed a friendly smile.

"It turned out to be Annie."

"Grandma, don't be angry with Daddy, will you? He didn't mean to make you angry."

Mrs. Hoyle snorted coldly in her heart, and even if he didn't mean to, he's certainly not innocent. Was it
because she used to bully his wife? So he wanted revenge on her, his mother? In ancient times, he
would have been unfilial.

"Annie, all children should share their father's last name. For example, you should be called Annie
Hoyle, not Annie Steele, and do you know that?



"Not really. Several kids in my class share their mother's last name. For example, Dandan, who is my
best friend, shares Aunt Xiaoyun's last name, as their last names are both Li, while Baobao Qu also
shares her mother's last name, so is there anything wrong with the child sharing the mother's last
name?"

In fact, Annie heard the dispute on the phone very clearly. She knew that her grandmother didn't want
her before, but she also knew that now her grandmother wanted to bring her back to the Hoyle family,
but she didn't want to be separated from her mommy, Olive, and her grandparents, who lived in Luo
City.

As a child, Annie was actually very simple and innocent, because if she grew up with someone, and if
someone treated her well, she wanted to live with that person.

The house in Luo City was small and she didn't even have a separate bed once her mommy, Chloe,
moved in, but if she wanted to sleep with anyone, she could climb into their bed. She could also jump
and roll on any bed, whispering around their necks. She was happy, while they doted on her. Although
the house in Jiangcheng was large, she felt strange, and many rules constrained her, making her
uncomfortable.

Annie was so clever that Mrs. Hoyle found that she could not deceive her little granddaughter, Annie,
whom she had hated, but now Mrs. Hoyle wanted to keep Annie staying with her, so Mrs. Hoyle was
very upset for a moment.

If the man was not adopted into the bride's family, even in ordinary families, it would cause an uproar if
anyone proposed that the child should share the mother's last name, let alone in the Hoyle family.

Besides, she wanted to change Annie's last name because she wanted to tell them that she would
accept Olive and Annie, but Alan didn't appreciate her at all? And she didn't know whether Olive was
trying to set them apart or not. Was Olive deliberately trying to embarrass her?
