    Chapter 1153 Drive Him Away


    "Enough!" Edmont shouted regretfully. "Stop arguing. It''s all my fault. What''s the point of using


    who''s right and who''s wrong now? No matter what happens, don''t let our grudges affect Alex and Jean.


    If the two children truly love each other, let''s support them!"


    "Support them?" Stefanie snorted, "Don''t even think about it!"


    Irked by her reply, Alex frowned again. "The situation is already clear. Not only does ming any of you


    have nothing to do with Jewel and me, but none of you have the right to stop us, either!"


    "As long as you are my son, I will never agree!" Stefanie dered, and Alex wouldn''t back down either.


    "In that case, you''re making me sever our mother-son rtionship!"


    The mother and son came to a standstill once more.


    It seemed that bringing up the past did nothing. Stefanie still harbored resentment toward Winnie and


    Edmont. She still refused to ept Alex and Jewel being together.


    The air suddenly fell into a silent loop.


    At that, Olivia took a deep breath and nced around to read the room before speaking up softly, "Mrs.


    Road, I understand that this is a family matter, and I shouldn''t interfere. But Jewel is my best friend,


    whom I''ve gone through thick and thin with, and my boyfriend''s foster sister. My boyfriend also happens


    to be sworn brothers with Alex. I still want to advise you, Mrs. Road. People often say that there''s


    always something to gain after losing. Although your marriage with Mr. Road isn''t fortunate, you have


    an outstanding son. He''s handsome, decent, and the renowned CEO of Road Enterprises, Alex Road.


    Who doesn''t know him? Women from all over the city want to be his, yet for more than twenty years,


    you two have relied on each other. No matter what happens, he always takes care of your feelings and


    almost obeys your words. It was your care and nurture that has led to his achievements today."


    Although Stefanie didn''t particrly like Olivia, thinking that she would only speak in favor of Jewel, she


    listened with a sense of resentment, but upon hearing what she said, she felt somewhat relieved and


    even proud.


    Yes, her son had always been excellent!


    She snuck a peek at her son, who was holding Jewel''s hand tightly as if afraid of losing her, and her


    heart twinged.

    At that, she murmured, "If so many women want to be his, why can''t he love someone else?"


    "Yeah, why can''t he love someone else?" Olivia echoed. "Isn''t it simply because he only loves that one


    person? You were also once young, Mrs. Road, so you should understand this feeling of unwavering


    love—and even adoration. I heard you asking Miss Parker why she didn''t pursue other rtionships


    after you married Mr. Road. Now, I''d like to ask you: why haven''t you remarried all these years?"


    Stefanie red daggers at her as if her thoughts had been suddenly exposed. "What are you trying to


    say?" she retorted, being defensive.


    Olivia smiled. "I''m trying to say that emotions defy reason. Even if someone hurts you or lets you down,


    even if everyone advises you to let go, you still can''t bear to do so. Alex is your son, and his


    temperament and character naturallye from you. What wrong does he have? He is merely in love


    with a woman, that''s all. You are his mother, and you should understand Alex''s state better than us.


    Look at the two of them; they have be pale and emaciated."


    She continued, "You may not know how much pain Alex endured when he thought he and Jewel were


    siblings. He almost drowned his sorrows in alcohol every day. Later, we helped them confirm through a


    DNA test that they are indeed not siblings. He was happy but then started worrying about your feelings.


    They have been torturing each other like this. They haven''t seen each other for over two months. If


    there was another way, it certainly wouldn''te to this."


    Then, she added, "Alex has made efforts, and he has considered your feelings. From eight years ago


    until now, he has only ever liked one person, Jewel. It''s truly cruel to make him choose between you


    and Jewel. Can you bear to drive away such an outstanding son, Mrs. Road? If you do, there will be no


    shortage of people willing to take him."
