Chapter 684

When everyone saw Eugene's expression soften, they all smiled along with him, and the atmosphere was lightened once more. Nicole took a mouthful of the food before complimenting it. "Did you prepare all of this, Mrs. Nolan? It tastes so good."

"Jewel was the one who made this!" Ellen said.

Ellen was excited to introduce Jewel. "This is my goddaughter, Jewel." Jewel beamed at Ellen. Alex was surprised to hear this, and he signed a few words to Jewel. 'What does that mean? How did you end up as Mrs. Nolan's goddaughter?'

'We just happened to get along well, so Mrs. Nolan took me as her granddaughter.' Jewel signed. Alex was glad to hear that. Since Jewel's biological mother wasn't around, at least Jewel had someone who cared about her. Jewel could really use some love in her life. "Congratulations!" he uttered.

You're truly a genius doctor."

"No worries. It's all part of my job," Olivia replied.

"Sean told me that you donated the fees to the orphanage. So, that's how you do charity! I'm really impressed," Nicole said.
