Chapter 797


    Alex questioned, “Do you wanna go back?” “Not until you’re going back too, Jewel answered. Smiling


    at her, he took hold of her hand and stared into her eyes intensely. Next, he kissed the back of her


    hand under her gaze.


    Even his voice sounded sexy. ‘It’s nice to hear that, but you can return if it’s boring here. Don’t feel that


    you owe me something because I’m willing to do anything for you.” Her mind exploded in an instant as


    she gazed at him, questioning what he was doing with her eyes. Instinctively, she withdrew her hand


    like a surprised bunny.


    However, she thought that she was overreacting, so she rified herself, “Do your want me to return?”


    “No, but I respect your decision,” replied Alex. Jewel put down the bowl in her hand and signed, ‘You’re


    hurt because of me. How can I leave you here?’

    “I’m d that I have the chance to be the hero. that saves a damsel in distress. That way, you won’t


    push me away anymore,” he eximed. His words made Jewel feel awkward. ‘I didn’t.” “Then, are you


    willing to stay until we can return together?”


    She nodded her head. “Thank you, Jewel.” He smiled and she blushed as she pursed her lips in


    embarrassment. In the meantime, the atmosphere downstairs rose due to Brian and North’s bet. After


    winning that one bet, Brian lost consecutively. He drank a lot, but he was fine, thanks to his decent


    alcohol tolerance.


    Instead, the drink that North had taken wasing into effect as his face turned crimson and his eyes


    glossed over. Once the game ended, he kept pestering Olivia to sing for him. He even pulled her hands


    onto him to have her pat his back while hugging. She found it funny yet sad, for that little brat was not


    as clingy when he was young. She carried him and stood up. “Baby, shall we sing at home?”


    “Okay,” he answered meekly. Eugene rose to his feet. “I’ll hold him.” Just as she was going to hand


    over the boy to him, North began pushing Eugene away with a fierce expression. “Not you. I want


    Mommy! This is my mommy!”


    His action rendered Eugene speechless and helpless. Isn’t it time for me to be your dad, young man?


    You entrusted your mother to me. There’s no taking back!


    Leaving with no choice, Olivia held the boy herself. However, his growing height made it difficult for her


    to do so. When Eugene was going to offer his help, North stopped him again. “Stop following us.”


    Eugene frowned..


    This brat. Don’t you know who I am? Still, he could not reason with a drunk kid, so he had to show his


    trump card. “Son, your mother is having a hard time holding you. I’ll take you to your room ande


    back. I won’t interrupt your mother singing. How’s that?”


    North blinked his hazy eyes and soon, he nodded as though he just understood what it meant. After


    sessfully holding the kid, Eugene walked them to the room. North began to drive Eugene out when


    he was tucked in bed. “Leave!”


    Olivia smiled as well. “I can take over from here. You can leave.” With brows furrowed, Eugene looked


    at the snorting little guy regretfully. “I shouldn’t have let him drink. Brian is seriously a troublemaker.”


    Who knew that his grumble reached North ears? The drunken kiddo then narrowed his eyes warningly.


    “Don’t speak ill of my uncle.”
