    Chapter 1189 Into a Corner


    ke said, "I see. But we just want to know who you''re actually here for. I mean, there must be a main


    dish and a side for a meal, right?"


    Alex shot the brat a look. "You''re likening them to food?"


    ke said, "It''s alright, Uncle Alex. Just say you''re here for Aunt Jewel."


    Without raising his head, Terry said, "Hey, don''t say his line for him."


    Everyoneughed. It was surprising to see four kids backing Alex into a corner. They wanted to see


    more.


    Jewel looked a little awkward. "He''s here to see you, ke. I''m just conveniently here."


    Alex looked at the kids. They didn''t even miss a bit. Bit annoying and amusing at the same time. Guess


    they are Eugene and Olivia''s kids. He cleared his throat. "If we''re going with the priority list in my head,


    then it''s ke. That''s what I was nning. But if we''re going with the order of appearance, then I came


    to see your aunt. You were all asleep, but she was the only one waiting for me."


    The kids gave him thumbs up. Alex pretended to wipe his sweat, then he looked at Jewel. "Gotta be


    smart just to be their uncle."


    Jewel shot him a look, telling him to shut up and eat.


    Ellen smiled. "Guess Jewel found herself a good partner."


    Alex said, "Of course. Don''t want to get on the kids'' bad side."


    It was a lovely meal, but Hector had a perpetual frown on his forehead. He had a bad feeling about this.


    The more he talked to them, the more he felt that they had known who the kids were. There''s no way


    Olivia''s family and friends have known about her godson unless the kids have stayed with her for a


    long time. Even if Eugene and Olivia see them as their own, their friends and family won''t take them as


    part of their family. What should I do?


    He couldn''t believe they could cross all distances ande together. Fate must have a long story


    waiting for them indeed.


    After lunch, Olivia took ke to Hector''s room so he could check his pulse. She could do it herself, but


    she needed an excuse to talk to him. Just like what she expected, the condition didn''t get better, but it


    didn''t get worse either. That was good enough, though. At least they would have more time.


    After the checkup, she stood at the doorway. "Eugene!"


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    Eugene came over a whileter, looking nervous. "What is it?"


    "Nothing. Take him away. I need to talk to Mr. Gedding."


    "Sure." Eugene took the boy away.


    Surprised, Hector asked, "What do you need?"


    Olivia smiled. "Just wanted to talk."


    Hector''s heart skipped a beat. He was worried she might say they knew that the kids were theirs, and


    now they were taking them back. But she seems to be in too much of a jovial mood for that. He calmed


    down. "What is it?"


    "Oh, calm down." Olivia sat down beside him. "You''re fifty-five now, aren''t you?"


    "Yeah. I am surprised you remembered."


    "Of course. You''re the one who taught me everything I know, after all."


    "Oh, someone''s sweet." Hector smiled. "So, what is it? Spill it out."


    "Hey, don''t make me sound like a demanding brat. Just wanted to have a little talk." She huddled closer


    to him. "So, what do you think of Eugene''s mother?"


    Well, this is a surprise. Hector said, "She''s nice, but why do you ask?"


    "So, do you like her?"
