Chapter 748
Unable to control herself, Olivia giggled. “No matter how experienced she is, she has to fall, somehow!” she said and pulled Jewel into a seat. “By the way, didn’t you prepare a gift for your godmother?”
A sad look appeared on Jewel’s face. ‘It’s not back yet!’
“What did you prepare?”
“Secret!” she said.
“You’re starting to annoy me now that you can talk? Aren’t you being a little ungrateful?”
Jewel laughed as she gestured, ‘I think ‘mom’ is the word closest to the heart in this world.’
Olivia gazed at her fondly as she recalled the things Eugene said about Jewel encountering some major incident that caused her memory loss, which resulted in her ending up in a place like Double Dragon Court.
Maybe she isn’t an orphan, to begin with, Olivia reckoned. Otherwise, why will she have such a thought out of the blue?
“You’re right. I miss my mom, too.”
Jewel hurriedly pulled her into a hug and comforted her in sign language, ‘Your mother is always watching you!’
She nodded. “Have you been taking medication recently?”
“Of course, otherwise I can’t speak,” Jewel said, trying her best to articulate her words.
Olivia chuckled in amusement while she lifted Jewel’s wrist and read her pulse carefully on her thigh before releasing it after a few minutes. “I think you don’t have to adjust your medication for the time being, but you’ll have to continue it for at least another couple of months.”
“Not a problem!” she agreed obediently.
They spoke about what happened the past few days in the room, including about Nathan and Kate, and they started to worry about how they were going to get by in the future.
Meanwhile, Alex was also worried because his bodyguard, Jewel, was too responsible.
“Can she feel it, then?” Eugene asked.
“Like hell, she can. She’s as polite to me as a stranger,” he complained.
Eugene patted Alex’s shoulder consolingly and said, “Okay, prepare the vegetables. This will keep your mind occupied for days.”
A helpless sigh escaped Alex’s mouth, and he asked while rinsing the vegetables, “That’s right, what’s up with Nicole? Hayden told me that you beat her.”
A ruthless look flashed over his face. “She’s asking for it. Not only did she have the nerves to kill Olivia, she even tried to frame Penny for it.”
“Really? Do you have any hard evidence that proves that she did it?” Alex asked.
Eugene glared at him icily. “If I have any solid evidence, do you think she would still be alive?”
His words tickled Alex. “That’s true. By the way, you should stop now. According to Hayden, she’s doing terribly. She lost a chunk of her hair, and her neck was completely swollen. Yet, she’s so considerate of you and stayed at her villa, not daring to return to her parents’ place because she said that her parents might make things difficult for you. That totally shattered Hayden’s heart.”
