    Chapter 1493 Joseph Visits Jewel in Her Cell


    The woman in the corner remained motionless.


    After an unknown amount of time, she heard the door being opened again, apanied by a male


    voice. "Mr. Joseph, this woman almost strangled Bald Eagle to death just now. He would have met his


    end if we hadn''t happened to pass by."


    A cold light shed in Joseph''s eyes as he gazed toward the person beside him. "Who told you to


    touch her?"


    The man was frightened and stammered, "We didn''t touch her. Bald Eagle asked her to eat, but she


    didn''t move. He went over to check on her, and then she took the opportunity to wrap her iron chain


    around Bald Eagle''s neck..."


    However, his voice became weaker, and he gave up trying to exin in the end. "I don''t know exactly


    what happened."


    Joseph narrowed his eyes. "Let Bald Eagle end himself."


    The man was startled, and his mouth was agape, unable to believe what he had heard.


    He wanted to confirm what he had heard, but seeing Joseph''s indifferent expression, he could only


    muster a "yes" in response.


    At that point, he was curious about the woman in the cell. Who is she? End himself? Isn''t that a bit


    over?


    However, Joseph didn''t care about the storm of emotions inside the man''s heart and entered the cell on


    his own.


    A faint smile appeared on his lips when he saw the woman curled up in the corner. "What? Worried that


    there''s poison in the food?"


    The woman slowly turned her head, and her appearance could be clearly seen despite the dim light.


    She had short hair, an oval face, fair skin, and a slightly thin figure, but her eyes looked exceptionally


    sharp. Who else could it be but Jewel?


    "What do you want? Where are the children?" Her voice was hoarse from not eating for a long time.


    Joseph smiled. "Oh, Jewel. I didn''t expect we would still meet again after so many years."


    Jewel rebuked, "I didn''t leave Double Dragon Court willingly. I was almost burned to death in the fire


    plotted by Blood Rose and Phantom back then. When I escaped from that room, my whole body was


    burned, and my throat was damaged. Someone saved me, and it took me two months to recover. By


    then, Double Dragon Court had already dered me dead, so I didn''t return—"


    Before she could finish, Joseph interrupted, "And then, you killed Phantom and Blood Rose for


    revenge?"


    Jewel exined, "I didn''t kill them. Yes, I did something to Phantom, but Blood Rose killed her, trying to


    frame me. You can investigate it. Later, she killed the bone marrow donor for Eugene''s son. That''s why


    Eugene sent her to the police station. If you just want to settle the score with me, it''s up to you whether


    to torture or kill me, but let the innocent leave."


    Joseph chuckled. "Innocent? Who is innocent? Settling the score with you is one thing. I have other


    businesses with them."


    "You—" Jewel was so angry that she choked. "What can a few children do to irritate you? Aren''t you


    afraid that Eugene wille after you?"


    With a sneer, Joseph asked, "So what? His wife and children are in my hands. What can he do to me?"


    Upon hearing this, Jewel froze. She suddenly stood up and pounced on him. "What did you say? Is


    Olivia here too? Where is she?"


    Joseph grabbed Jewel''s wrist, and his voice turned cold. "How are you still concerned about others at


    this moment? Why don''t you take a look at your current situation? Who can you save in this situation?


    After saying that, he pushed her away.


    Then, he sat on the chair that his subordinates had brought over, looking quite rxed.

    Jewel took several steps back as her feet were bound with iron chains and fell to the ground.


    Shey on the ground, full of regret and remorse. It was her negligence that brought harm to the


    children and implicated Olivia.


    "Why did you take us? Is it to provoke Eugene?"


    Joseph asked, "Why? Can''t I?"


    Jewel said, "You can, but you wouldn''t cause such a losing deal just to provoke him. It''s not worth it."


    Josephughed. "You know me quite well!"


    As he spoke, he leaned down and looked at her with his deep eyes. "If only you had been a little more


    sensible back then, or else you wouldn''t have ended up like this."
