    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?”


    Jewelughed 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 ce 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 andforted her in signnguage, ‘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 articte 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.

    Usually, she wouldn’t allow him to drop her home, let alone let him into her house. She was so uptight.


    Nevertheless, he had to admit that if it were another woman, she would have tried her best to get into


    his good books and earned herself a promotion by now.


    After he ensured that the kitchen door was tightly shut, he sought advice from Eugene.


    The strategy he was currently using-taking a step back and befriending Olivia as a method to bring


    their rtionship to the next level-not only repaired their rtionship, she even willingly stayed by his


    side. Because of this, he was beginning to doubt himself; a longtime bachelor actually had better ideas


    than a Casanova like himself, who literally lived and breathed seduction.


    Eugene gave him the side-eye as he mocked, “It’s only been a few days with her, and you already want


    to go to the next base with her?”


    Tm not nning to move on to the next base with her. I just don’t know how to get along with her,” Alex


    exined.


    Eugene scrutinized him and said with a straight face, “She doesn’t like to be indebted to others, so just


    let her owe you all the time. Do you know what is the hardest debt to repay?”


    “What?” he asked.


    With his eyes fixed on him, Eugene gave him a thoughtful smirk. “A true heart.”


    As though he understood what he meant, Alex nodded. “But my heart is true.”


    “Can she feel it, then?” Eugene asked.


    “Like hell, she can. She’s as polite to me as a stranger,” heined.


    Eugene patted Alex’s shoulder consolingly and said, “Okay, prepare the vegetables. This will keep your


    mind upied 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 shed 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 red 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. ording to Hayden, she’s


    doing terribly. She lost a chunk of her hair, and her neck waspletely swollen. Yet, she’s so


    considerate of you and stayed at her vi, not daring to return to her parents’ ce because she said


    that her parents might make things difficult for you. That totally shattered Hayden’s heart.”
