Chapter 829

"I don't care what happened in the past," Olivia said. "But if he hurts Jewel again due to his lack of care, I won't let

him off the hook! So, hurry and send him another text to remind him of this."

Eugene wrapped his arms around her waist and probed, "Are you still mad?"

"Of course, I am. You traitor."

"Will you give me a chance to turn over a new leaf?"

"I'll put you under observation for fifteen days," she declared as she shoved him aside. "Hurry, or I will double the

observation period."

He sulked as he muttered, "Why are you giving me either an observation or probation period? When will we

become official?"

"How can you even ask me that after what you've done?" Olivia chased him away mercilessly. "Go home and sleep

at your own place!"

"I'm not tired, though!" a desperate Eugene pleaded.

"But I am, and I want to sleep."

"You can go to bed," he said. "I'll leave in a while."

Olivia was utterly speechless and highly amused at his attitude. This was the most challenging thing on her to-do list

every night—chasing Eugene out of the house.

"Release me, then. I'm going to sleep."

Eugene stared piteously at her while she strode to her room. Then, he asked, "Are you really going to bed? Come

on, spend some time with me."

"Look for your buddy if you want to waste your time with inane chatter."

"Aren't you going to supervise me when I text him?"

"Both of you are saying different things in front of me and behind my back. There's no way I can keep an eye on

you."

After she said that, she didn't hesitate to close her bedroom door, leaving Eugene alone in bewilderment. He

lowered his gaze at his phone as his gander gradually turned into a piercing glare while he sent an annoyed text to

Alex. 'Damn you! My girlfriend is ignoring me now!'

On the other end, Alex read the text and reckoned that Olivia most probably decided to snub Eugene because

Eugene had tipped him off, but he couldn't be bothered to reply to the text.

He didn't expect that his biggest worry had become a reality. For the past few days, he had kept an eye on Stefanie

and realized that she hadn't brought up anything since that time when she saw Jewel. It was as though nothing had

happened.

Alex even prepared a draft so that he could discuss things with Stefanie calmly, pushing her into an agreement

either via an emotional manipulation or with reason.

However, after waiting for a few days, she didn't make a move and he gradually lowered his guard as he thought

that she didn't recognize Jewel.

He didn't expect that his mother was probably waiting for him to lower his guard down so that she could make an

unexpected move.

This made him angry and worried at the same time.

Jewel's throat had only just improved and while he didn't know why it was suddenly inflamed, he knew it had

something to do with his mother.

The car drove into No. 8, Imperial Villas Garden, and came to a stop before he marched into the house angrily.

"Why are you back so late, Mr. Alex?" the butler, Frank, asked in surprise.

"Hi, Mr. Rodriguez," Alex greeted and asked. "Is my mom asleep?"

"Not yet. She's watching TV in the living room," Frank answered respectfully.

Alex went in with large strides and immediately zeroed in on Stefanie, who was seated on the couch and laughing

hysterically.

When she noticed him, she hurriedly beckoned for him to take a seat. "Come over, Alex. Oh my, look at this girl.

She's hilarious!"

Alex remained expressionless as he walked over, picked up the remote control on the couch, and switched off the

TV.

Stefanie's laughter came to an abrupt stop and she lifted her head to look at him in astonishment. "What are you

doing?"

He didn't bother sitting down as he looked down at her imperiously. "Did you look for Jewel?"

A frown appeared on her face at his words. "Did she tell you about it?" Then, she snorted and added, "What kind of

person is she? I even told her not to tell you. This woman is so precious to you, but isn't she trying to draw a wedge

between us now?"

"She didn't tell me anything, and I'm not blind. Furthermore, she already resigned," he said coldly.
