Chapter 384 What Should I Do with You?
The waittingbar at night had always been so charming that the place was never empty. The place would always be filled with familiar faces.
Aoba Hoyle was also a half time customer here. He could easily find where Ivy Aldington was.
He was, of course, in a secluded private place.
The curtain covered the outside view. Aoba Hoyle pushed a check in front of him.
“What does this mean?” Ivy Aldington was puzzled.
“A few days ago, a woman borrowed a million from you and today, I will pay it back for her.” he said without beating around the bush.
“Does she know about this? Since you are with her, you should know that she doesn’t like it when others intervene in her private affairs especially behind her back.”
“You don’t have to worry about this. I will tell her myself.”
Ivy Aldington pushed the check back, “I think you should tell her first. As far as I know her, she won’t like it this way. One million is nothing for you, but it is a burden for her.”
“You’re a weirdo. Why don’t you just accept the money?”
He didn’t know how much of a burden one million was for her, but he knew that paying off her debt would make her unhappy. She couldn’t even accept an iPhone, how could she accept a million? However, he didn’t like it when her woman owed another man a lot of money even if they were good friends.
Ivy Aldington sipped his wine and smiled, “I think Chloe would like to pay the money herself.”
“You know that with her income, she will not be able to pay it off for years.”
Now that she found a day job, she was very busy.
“You better tell your mother to do less wicked things in the future.” Ivy Aldington said while lowkey warning him.
Aoba Hoyle was not happy about this. It hit too close to home.
Ivy Aldington added, “As for the money, it doesn’t matter. I don’t urgently need it and even if she doesn’t pay it back, it doesn’t matter.”
Aoba Hoyle felt funny when he heard this. It felt flamboyant like he was showing off their friendship for years while he and Chloe Malan herself was not as solid.
“It must feel good to be friends for years.” he said sourly.
Ivy Aldington smiled, “I don’t have many friends. She is one of them. Since you’re with her, you should her temperament by now. She doesn’t like it when others decide things for her.”
Aoba Hoyle approached her with flickered eyes, “I’m his boyfriend, Ivy. I’m not ‘others’.”
Ivy Aldington turned a blind eye and smiled, “Exactly, you two are nothing but boyfriend and girlfriend. I can see other couples everywhere. Today, you get together and next day, you break up. It’s normal. Besides, you have a mother who is more like a bully. I doubt that your relationship with Chloe will last long.”
“You’re insulting me.” Aoba Hoyle wanted to strangle the man in front of him. How could he talk like that?
“I’m just telling you the truth.” he smiled.
Aoba Hoyle stayed for a while in the car and went back to the car. He slammed his steering wheel and horn that passerby thought he was inside.
He came in a good mood. He didn’t expect that Ivy Aldington would pick on his soft spot.
Chloe Malan came out from work and saw him leaning to the steering wheel. He looked absent. There was a loud music coming from inside the car. The closed doors and windows made it defeating.
She frowned and reached out to the stereo to turn it off. She looked at him strangely.
On weekdays, this boy wouldn’t leave her no matter how hard she tried to get rid of him but today, she came out of work, alone.
Seeing him back early, she thought that he was gone. Unexpectedly, she saw his car outside.
“What did Ivy tell you?” she watched him coming in happily and coming out sulking. He must have been verbally defeated.
“Didn’t he tell you?”
“He asked me to ask you.” Chloe Malan buckled up her seatbelt.
“Then, I will tell you. Don’t be angry.” Aoba Hoyle hesitated a little.
He would be overwhelmed if Chloe Malan got angry this time.
“I said I wouldn’t.” Chloe Malan smiled.
Aoba Hoyle took the check and showed it to her.
Her pupil shrank, “You want to pay my debt.”
“Yes, but he confiscated it.” Aoba Hoyle answered honestly and looked at her face carefully, “Don’t be angry.”
Sometimes, he wanted to ask his elder brother how he loved. He was never this timid, but this time, he had to be extra careful with this woman.
Chloe Malan shook her head, “I’m not angry. I know you have a good intention, but this matter, I will solve it myself. You don’t have to blend in.”
Seeing that her rage was absent, he secretly heaved a sigh and tried to persuade her, “This incident was caused by my mother. If it wasn’t for her, you wouldn’t have to borrow a million. There is nothing wrong with me returning the money.”
“It’s true. Sometimes, I hate having such parents. I just want to be with the man who loves me. I can be an equal footing for him and his family, but they always make me feel inferior.” she said sadly. She put on a wry smile, “I borrowed a million from Ivy for your mother to buy out my relationship with Hai Wanyuan and Tao Liu. I thought you saw it in the newspaper. They are no longer my parents. Do you think I’m heartless, disloyal and unfilial?” NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
“Please, don’t say that about yourself.” Aoba Hoyle covered her mouth, “I have never looked down on you, not once.”
Chloe Malan put his hand away gently, “I know you have seen me in the street. If you didn’t care about me, you wouldn’t have stayed with me.”
“You’re my woman. It’s only natural for me to help you financially. A million is not a small amount. I don’t like seeing you work multiple jobs and wear yourself out.” he held her hand tightly.
“Thank you. I know you care about me. When we have a relationship like Olive and Alan, I will submit myself to you, but for now, let me do this by myself. I have agreed with Ivy to pay my debt. He is not in
shortage of money, so I can pay him back whenever I want to. Olive also lends her saving for me. You don’t have to worry that I will die paying off my debt.”
“What should I do with you? You would rather suffer alone than to let others help you. You won’t even accept me.”
He told his mother that he wouldn’t love anyone else but Chloe Malan. Chloe Malan told him that she wouldn’t marry him until his mother accepted her sincerely. It made him feel like she could leave anytime she wanted to.
Ivy Aldington’s snarky remarks were poisonous. Now, he was insecure.
No wonder his brother wanted to get a marriage certificate as soon as possible.
