Chapter 971 A Fight Between Alex and Jewel

Olivia had her doubts. "But you told me she wasn't fond of Jewel since long ago. If she liked Jewel from the beginning, why did the pair break up after that?"

Eugene nodded. "You're right. It's a little far-fetched. It seems like the best solution is for Alex and Mrs. Road to talk to each other."

"I told her that too. I suggested she talk to him."

He arched his brows in amusement. "Aren't you going to tell Alex?"

Olivia coquettishly rolled her eyes at him. "I'm not driving a wedge between them, thank you very much. As a mother, I know she wants the best for her son. However, her personality is too much to handle. I almost lost my temper when she insulted Jewel earlier."

He smiled at that. "Stop worrying. Jewel can stand up for herself, which explains why Alex can't move on after all these years."

Oliva glanced at the stairwell. "Should we call her? Or we could leave first?"

Eugene indulged her. "It's up to you."

Olivia playfully rolled her eyes at him before linking arms with him. "Let's go."

In the stairwell, Jewel put on a cold expression and hardened gaze. "What do you want?"

Alex deeply exhaled. "I'm sorry, Jewel. I don't know where my mother's words came from. I'd like to apologize on her behalf."

"Don't worry," Jewel commented. "She's not wrong at all. It's our fault to stay together. I used to think love is between two people and outsiders have no right to meddle in it. However, I was proven wrong when I saw your mother lying on the sick bed earlier. I can't pretend it doesn't bother me when someone's life depends on us."
