Chapter 829
“I don’t care what happened in the past,” Olivia said. “But if he hurts Jewel again due to hisck of care,
I won’t let him off the hook! So, hurry and send him another text to remind him of this.” Eugene
wrapped his arms around her waist and probed, ‘Are you still mad?”
“Of course, I am. You traitor.”
“Will you give me a chance to turn over a new leaf?” “I’ll put you under observation for fifteen days,”
she dered as she shoved him aside. “Hurry, or I will double the observation period.” He sulked as he
muttered, “Why are you giving me either an observation or probation period?
When will we be official?” “How can you even ask me that after what you’ve done?” Olivia chased
him away mercilessly. “Go home and sleep at your own ce!” “I’m not tired, though!” a desperate
Eugene pleaded.
“But I am, and I want to sleep.”
“You can go to bed,” he said. “I’ll leave in a while.” Olivia was utterly speechless and highly amused at
his attitude. This was the most challenging thing on her to-do list every night- chasing Eugene out of
the house. ‘Release me, then. I’m going to sleep.”
Eugene stared piteously at her while she strode to her room. Then, he asked, “Are you really going to
bed? Come on, spend some time with me.”
“Look for your buddy if you want to waste your time with inane chatter.” “Aren’t you going to supervise
me when I text him?” “Both of you are saying different things in front of me and behind my back.
There’s no way I can keep an eye on you.”
After she said that, she didn’t hesitate to close her bedroom door, leaving Eugene alone in
bewilderment. He lowered his gaze at his phone as his gander gradually turned into a piercing re
while he sent an annoyed text to Alex. ‘Damn you! My girlfriend is ignoring me now!’
On the other end, Alex read the text and reckoned that Olivia most probably decided to snub Eugene
because Eugene had tipped him off, but he couldn’t be bothered to reply to the text.
He didn’t expect that his biggest worry had be a reality. For the past few days, he had kept an eye
on Stefanie and realized that she hadn’t brought up anything since that time when she saw Jewel. It
was as though nothing had happened.

Alex even prepared a draft so that he could discuss things with Stefanie calmly, pushing her into an
agreement either via an emotional maniption or with reason.
However, after waiting for a few days, she didn’t make a move and he gradually lowered his guard as
he thought that she didn’t recognize Jewel.
He didn’t expect that his mother was probably waiting for him to lower his guard down so that she could
make an unexpected move. This made him angry and worried at the same time.
Jewel’s throat had only just improved and while he didn’t know why it was suddenly inmed, he knew
it had something to do with his mother. The car drove into No. 8, Imperial Vis Garden, and came to a
stop before he marched into the house angrily. “Why are you back sote, Mr. Alex?” the butler, Frank,
asked in surprise.
“Hi, Mr. Rodriguez, Alex greeted and asked. ‘Is my mom asleep?” “Not yet. She’s watching TV in the
living room,” Frank answered respectfully.
Alex went in withrge strides and immediately zeroed in on Stefanie, who was seated on the couch
andughing hysterically. When she noticed him, she hurriedly beckoned for him to take a seat. “Come
over, Alex. Oh my, look at this girl. She’s hrious!”
Alex remained expressionless as he walked over, picked up the remote control on the couch, and
switched off the TV. Stefanie’sughter came to an abrupt stop and she lifted her head to look at him in
astonishment. “What are you doing?”
He didn’t bother sitting down as he looked down at her imperiously. “Did you look for Jewel?” A frown
appeared on her face at his words. “Did she tell you about it?” Then, she snorted and added, “What
kind of person is she? I even told her not to tell you. This woman is so precious to you, but isn’t she
trying to draw a wedge between us now?”
“She didn’t tell me anything, and I’m not blind. Furthermore, she already resigned,” he said Coldly.
