Chapter 1213


    Chapter 1213 It Was Your Mom


    The dagger in Alex''s hand didn''t descend, but he didn''t sheath it either. Instead, Alex shot Damian with


    a death re as cold as winter as he said, "How did Jewel end up in a ce like Double Dragon


    Court?"


    Damian finally stopped trying to wriggle his way out of this, for he only wanted the fastest route to


    death!


    He closed his eyes and admitted defeat, his voice gradually getting louder with each word he spat, "I


    sold her off to Double Dragon Court for 3 hundred thousand. I was the one who changed Jewel''s name.


    They only offered the high price after I told them she was my sister. When Helena heard about the deal


    between Double Dragon Court and me, she wanted to kill me in a fit of rage. I was the one who pushed


    her to her death!"


    Those words were even less bearable for Alex than the truth earlier. His mind waspletely nk


    after hearing Damian''s confession.


    He only guessed that Damian was involved in this.


    However, he never thought that reality would be this cruel. Damian was the one who personally sold


    Jewel to Double Dragon Court, and he even killed Jewel''s mother after doing the deed!


    Alex was so enraged that his veins throbbed. He grabbed Damian by the hair and rammed thetter


    onto the ground.


    "I''m gonna kill you, Damian!"


    With that, he seemed to be in a frenzy as he rammed Damian''s head onto the ground again and again.


    Soon, the ground was covered in fresh blood…


    Alex muttered mechanically, "No, I can''t let you die just like that. It''d be too easy for you."


    Damian heard it, but he couldn''t respond. His mind was spinning as if he had been rotated on the spot


    hundreds of times. His ears were buzzing so loudly that he felt as if hundreds of bees had entered his


    head.


    After a while, heughed. Heughed andughed before he started choking on his own blood,


    causing him to cough uncontrobly. His reaction made it seem as though he was trying to mock Alex


    for a loss as great as his. Both of them were in shambles.


    Fresh blood spurted out of his mouth as he painstakingly forced his next deration out of his throat,


    gurgling, "Alex, it was your mom! Jewel and her mother ended up like this all because of your mom! I


    can admit that I yed a part in this, but if your mother hadn''t given me this chance, how could I have


    done anything to Jewel?"


    When Alex heard that, he was visibly shaken as he crumpled to the floor.


    Damian was right.


    It was Alex''s mother. It was his mother who plotted against Jewel and chased her away, hence giving


    Damian a chance to do all this.


    Alex thrust his hands into his hair as he curled up on the couch. His heart felt as though it was being


    wrenched out of his chest and he didn''t know what to do about it.


    What should he do?


    If Jewel knew of this, what would happen to them?


    Everything else was fine, but his mother''s life was standing between them!


    For some reason, he felt a chill rising within his body. He started shivering uncontrobly.


    Damian slowly recovered from his dizziness. He looked at the dagger just inches away from him, then


    at Alex, who was curled up on the couch, suffering. As boldness crept into his system, he thought that


    no one would hear even if he told the truth.


    If he was telling the truth to a dead man, then the man would''ve died with no regrets.


    Hence, he gripped the dagger and inched stealthily toward Alex. Then, he held the dagger firmly and


    plunged it toward Alex''s waist—


    Alex sensed Damian''s movements, but he thought that Damian was trying to escape. He had no


    intention of stopping Damian, anyway. Thetter would never get away!


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    But now, he couldn''t ept the fact that this incident had something to do with his mother.


    It was by his mother''s design. It was his mother who insisted that Jewel be sent away from Summer


    City. That was how the series of events started.


    While he was immersed in pain and suffering, he suddenly felt a sharp wind blowing in his direction. He


    instinctively opened his eyes to see Damian thrusting the dagger at him.


    He instinctively dodged Damian''s desperation-fueled attack. Even though his actions seeded in


    allowing him to avoid being hurt lethally, the dagger still made its mark on his body. It was slightly to the


    back, and even though it wasn''t deep, it instantly angered him…
