Alex took a deep breath and hesitated momentarily before mustering the courage to raise his hand and ring the doorbell.

The door opened quickly, and Jewel stood there, saying, “You’re back—” As soon as she saw the bandage on his neck, the smile that had been on her face moments earlier instantly transformed into a panic. “What happened to your neck?”

However, he said nothing and simply pulled her into his arms. Seemingly, this was the only way for him to feel even a modicum of relief from the nagging anxiety in his chest.

In the meantime, she was bewildered by his sudden embrace and asked, “What’s wrong with you?”

Then, Alex took a deep breath and mumbled, “It’s nothing. Just accidentally got cut by a knife. I nearly couldn’t see you anymore.”

He spoke casually, but Jewel didn’t believe a word of it, and her face became tense, prompting her to inquire, “Did you get into a fight with someone?”

He sighed helplessly upon hearing this. “Yeah. Some punk was asking for trouble, so I had to use my fists. Don’t worry, I’m fine.”

“Are there any other injuries?”

“No, there aren’t.”

Despite this, she did not believe him, so she squirmed out of his arms and conducted a thorough radar scan of his body. Her gaze was drawn to his waist, and she reached out to lift his shirt.

Instantaneously, Alex panicked and grabbed Jewel’s hand, teasing, “What are you doing? Trying to get to know me better? Still, we can’t do that here. How about we get a room?” He purposefully made suggestive remarks, knowing she would surely blush and playfully glare at him as usual, saying, ‘Who wants to get a room with you?’

However, she seemed different today. Not only was she not shy, but she also looked directly into his eyes, her gaze filled with a hint of sharpness. “Let’s go to a room and check it out?”

He agreed good-naturedly and replied, “Okay, I’ll listen to you, my girlfriend!”

She raised her hand and hit him upon hearing those words. “Now you’re listening to your girlfriend? Who was lying to his girlfriend earlier?”

Alex felt bad but couldn’t argue with Jewel because he knew what she said was correct. Then, he apologized, “I’m sorry. I was afraid you would worry.”

Nonetheless, she maintained a cold expression and said ferociously, “Well, do you think I’m not worried now? I’m even more worried. Who hurt you in the first place?”

He hastily grabbed her hand and pressed it against his forehead, feeling heartbroken. What should I do? I don’t want to lose her.

Ultimately, he simply recounted what had happened today. He mentioned capturing Damian, but before he could interrogate him, Damian launched a surprise attack when he was off guard. He also talked about the injury on his neck, which occurred when someone attempted to silence Damian by killing him, but Alex chased them down and got into a fight, injuring himself in the process.

Jewel furrowed her brows and asked in confusion, “Could Damian harm you like this, given your superior skills?”
