    Chapter 1242 How Did Phantom Die?


    Ellen nced over, her eyes filled with concern. Olivia hesitated to share the details in front of Ellen,


    fearing it would frighten her. However, considering the gravity of the situation, she knew her mother-in-


    law would insist on knowing the truth. So, without hiding anything, Olivia exined how Jewel had


    knocked her out and went to Phantom’s house to confront her, then forced Phantom to give her the


    antidote.


    “I didn’t develop the antidote I used on you. Even if I could save you, it wouldn’t have been so quick.


    But Jewel didn’t want me to tell you, fearing it would worry you. I never expected Phantom to die,”


    Olivia added.


    Alex’s heart ached with pain, realizing that everything was kept secret to spare him from worry. In


    hindsight, he felt a chill down his spine. That woman was formidable, even though he had fought her


    while injured that day. Even without his injuries, he doubted he would have been on par with her. To


    make matters worse, she was skilled at throwing darts, so he might have died that day.


    That foolish woman never considered that she could die as well, did she?


    She just went ahead and knocked out Phantom secretly. If this incident hadn’t urred, perhaps he


    wouldn’t have realized when he would need to hide behind her and rely on her for protection.


    “So, Jewel said she didn’t kill her?” Alex inquired.


    Olivia nodded. “That’s right. Later, I had North investigate, and Phantom was admitted to a private


    hospital in the west.”


    Alex narrowed his eyes. “Someone must have framed her. How did the police find out that Jewel was


    there? I’m going to the hospital to investigate.”N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.


    Olivia tried to stop him. “You shouldn’t go. You haven’t fully recovered. I’ll go instead.”


    Alex insisted, “No, you need to stay at home and take care of the kids. They can’t do without you. I’m


    fine now, and I know my own body.”


    Olivia was still worried. “Then why don’t you wait for Eugene toe back and go with you? He should


    be here this afternoon.”


    But Alex couldn’t wait any longer. He said, “He just returned and must be exhausted. Let him rest


    today. I’ll take Peter with me.”


    After speaking, he went back to change his clothes. In no time, he emerged, looking much stronger


    than before.


    Once Alex left, Ellen anxiously asked, “Is it possible that Jewel injured her, and due to dyed


    treatment, she died?”


    Olivia reassured her, “No, Jewel’s attacks were precise. The body parts she targeted wouldn’t be fatal.”


    Ellen fretted, “What kind of fate does this child have? She’s a good girl. Why is her life so tumultuous?”


    Olivia helped Ellen sit down and said, “Mrs. Nn, don’t worry. Jewel will be fine.”


    Outside the medical clinic, Albert stared at the parked police car with suspicion filling his mind. What


    had happened? Did something go wrong during treatment? Or did someone die from taking


    medication? Otherwise, the police wouldn’t be here.


    As he continued staring, he noticed two police officers bringing out a woman from the clinic. Her head


    was covered with a ck cloth, making it impossible to see who it was.


    Albert’s heart raced with panic. Could it be Olivia? He got out of his car and rushed over, but before he


    could reach them, the police threatened him with their guns, forcing him to stop.


    Albert watched the police car drive away before turning around and heading toward the clinic. George


    stood at the entrance with a stern expression, his gaze fixed on the departing Jewel.


    He believed Jewel had gone to settle the score with Phantom, but since she imed she hadn’t killed


    anyone, it must be true. But how did Phantom die?


    He was consumed with anxiety, desperate to uncover the truth. However, he couldn’t leave as Hector


    had returned to the research base. He had no choice but to stay and keep watch.


    Seeing Albert approaching the clinic from a distance, George ignored him and walked inside. He


    couldn’t be bothered dealing with him at the moment.


    In the past, Albert might have taken the hint and left, but today, he was genuinely anxious as he was


    concerned that the person taken away might be Olivia. Where else could he go to find the ne?


    Ignoring the fact that he might annoy George, he entered the clinic and headed straight to find George.
