Chapter 1118 I’d Hate You if You Didn’t Tell Me
She said, "What else do you want from Jewel? Didn''t you ask to break up with her already? Now that
you two have broken up, just behave the way an ex is supposed to and stay out of her business!"
Needless to say, Alex could feel the emotion in Olivia''s words. "No, I didn''t ask for a breakup. She was
the one who asked for it."
Olivia was very surprised to hear this. "You didn''t? Why would Jewel say it was your idea, then? Just
what on earth is going on between you two?"
Alex didn''t have time to exin it either. "I''m at her door right now. Is she with you? Where are you?"
Olivia pondered for a moment before saying, "We''re at my studio." In any case, it''s better to talk face to
face.
"Okay, I''ll be there in a second," replied Alex before hanging up immediately.
Olivia looked at Jewel suspiciously. "Alex said he didn''t want to break up with you. Why would you say
it was his idea? Whose idea was it, actually?"
Jewel looked still absent; she neither cried nor talked.
Olivia sat down across from her. "Jewel, what''s wrong with you?" she said before letting out a sigh. "It''s
my fault for having a big mouth. I shouldn''t have told you this."
Jewel replied in a faint voice without looking at her, "I''d hate you if you didn''t tell me."
All of a sudden, Olivia felt a twinge in her nose. She reached out and took Jewel into her arms. "Sorry,
Jewel. Had I not told you this, you wouldn''t have been so upset."
She soid, "Whot else do you wont from Jewel? Didn''t you osk to breok up with her olreody? Now thot
you two hove broken up, just behove the woy on ex is supposed to ond stoy out of her business!"
Needless to soy, Alex could feel the emotion in Olivio''s words. "No, I didn''t osk for o breokup. She wos
the one who osked for it."
Olivio wos very surprised to heor this. "You didn''t? Why would Jewel soy it wos your ideo, then? Just
whot on eorth is going on between you two?"
Alex didn''t hove time to exploin it either. "I''m ot her door right now. Is she with you? Where ore you?"
Olivio pondered for o moment before soying, "We''re ot my studio." In ony cose, it''s better to tolk foce to
foce.
"Okoy, I''ll be there in o second," replied Alex before honging up immediotely.
Olivio looked ot Jewel suspiciously. "Alex soid he didn''t wont to breok up with you. Why would you soy
it wos his ideo? Whose ideo wos it, octuolly?"
Jewel looked still obsent; she neither cried nor tolked.
Olivio sot down ocross from her. "Jewel, whot''s wrong with you?" she soid before letting out o sigh. "It''s
my foult for hoving o big mouth. I shouldn''t hove told you this."
Jewel replied in o foint voice without looking ot her, "I''d hote you if you didn''t tell me."
All of o sudden, Olivio felt o twinge in her nose. She reoched out ond took Jewel into her orms. "Sorry,
Jewel. Hod I not told you this, you wouldn''t hove been so upset."
Jewel said, "Do you want to watch me spend my whole life pleading for his charity?"
Olivia didn''t understand what she meant. "What charity?"
Jewel exined, "If you didn''t tell me, I''d keep waiting for him stupidly until one day when he came
around and epted me. In the days toe, I couldn''t make any mistake, nor could I get angry or
start an argument, or it would all be my fault; even you guys would think so, too. After all, he had
graciously epted me regardless of the past. Eventually, our life would turn sour, and our feelings for
each other would be worn off bit by bit."
Olivia replied, "No, that wouldn''t happen. I''ll be on your side until the end of time!"
Jewel said rather mournfully, "Just because you wouldn''t doesn''t mean that others wouldn''t, too. Don''t
ever test human nature, for it''s human nature to be selfish. He may sound righteous, but
subconsciously, he''d think he was the benefactor, while I was the one who lived off his charity and thus
deserved to bear a little more. I think that''s what he''s afraid of."
Olivia didn''t make a sound. As it turned out, Jewel could rte to Alex''s dilemma and hesitation.
Jewel turned to look at her. "Actually, I have to thank you for telling me the truth, or I would''ve still been
kept in the dark like an idiot. I''ve been on pins and needles these days, thinking that Alex, that yboy,
might''ve already had a new lover. Otherwise, why would he treat me like a stranger? Now, I can at
least feelforted. Isn''t this better than us turning from lovers to enemies in the future?"
Seeing how the woman continued to smile impably despite her bleeding heart, Olivia really had no
idea how tofort her. Revealing such a truth would only heal one wound and open another. She
held Jewel in her arms, hoping to give her some strength in this manner.
Just then, the door was pushed open with a loud bang, followed by Alex''s anxious voice. "Jewel!"
Olivia nced at Alex, who seemed to have not gotten a wink of sleepst night. She apologetically
said, "Jewel said you asked for a breakup. She asked me for the reason just now, so I told her the
truth. She knows everything now, so whatever you have to say, you can talk about it openly and
honestly. I''m gonna leave you two on your own." With that, she went out of the room and even
thoughtfully closed the door for them.
After leaving the room, she sat in a chair and sighed repeatedly. For some reason, she felt unsettled.
Seems like I''ve done something I shouldn''t. pping herself in the mouth, she cursed herself inwardly,
Screw your big mouth! Then, she texted Eugene on the phone, ''I seem to have done something wrong.''
