Chapter 950 Distant
Jewel took a deep breath before confessing, "She wanted to give me money and have me leave tonight."
Olivia seethed with anger when she heard that. "She is sick in the head! Does she think that everyone covets that
small amount of their family's money?!"
Jewel quietly chuckled as she murmured, "Olivia, you sure worked off my anger when you chewed her out."
At that, Olivia muttered, "You can do it too after your throat recovers."
"To be honest, I feel much better now. I may have to do it slower, but I can say a lot of things in one breath."
"Attagirl."
Jewel then hugged Olivia. "Thank you, Olivia."
"We are way past thanking each other," Olivia lightly scolded before instructing the driver, "Please stop at the
pharmacy ahead."
"Why are we going to the pharmacy?" Jewel asked.
"I'm going to get you some antidote, or you will only recover tomorrow at the earliest."
After saying that, Olivia stepped out of the car and briskly entered the pharmacy. In no time, she came out with the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtpurchased medicine in hand.
As she got back into the car, she couldn't help but notice a motorcycle trailing not far from their cab. She smiled
knowingly in that direction. She didn't need to take a close look to know that it was Christoff.
No matter his intentions for approaching her, she felt grateful toward him tonight.
Once she got in the car, Jewel asked, "Did you see Christoff? He is following us."
"I saw him." Olivia nodded.
When the car slowly drove off, Jewel stole another glance behind. Sure enough, Christoff started his motorcycle and
followed them.
"Is he worried? Could it be that he has genuinely developed feelings for you?"
Olivia responded, "Actually, I think he is trying to drive a wedge between me and Eugene. I have a feeling that the
things that have happened to us recently are somehow related to him."
"You mean you two argued?"
"Mhm. Even though Eugene was deceitful, he and I wouldn't have gotten in a deadlock if Christoff hadn't
intervened."
As they spoke, the cab came to a halt. They had arrived at the hotel.
When they got out of the car and headed toward the hotel, Jewel deliberately glanced in the direction they came
from. As expected, she caught sight of Christoff's motorcycle.
However, he had already turned back.
It seemed like he was only escorting them. Now that he had made sure that they were safe, he finally left feeling
relieved.
It's just like a romantic drama! Jewel thought to herself.
The lofty and imposing ruler of the Samuel Court is silently escorting someone home. I wouldn't have believed it if
I'm not seeing this with my own eyes.
Jewel only commented after following Olivia into the hotel. "I think that he genuinely likes you."
Olivia only gave her the side-eye. "Are you betraying your Godmother? Don't you feel bad for her?"
Jewel giggled at that. "You're right. I have to keep an eye on you for her, lest some rascal seduces you and takes
you away."
…
The next day, Stefanie grew angrier the more she thought about it. It seemed that Jewel's mild temperament was
something she could handle.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, Olivia, with her sharp tongue, nearly gave her a heart attack last night. Stefanie couldn't put her anger to
rest no matter what.
What kind of witch has Eugene fallen for? she fumed.
In a fit of anger, she went straight to find Ellen.
Ellen had just finished tidying up the room when Stefanie arrived at her apartment.
They had actually gotten somewhat distant after so many years of not seeing each other.
Although Ellen had met Stefanie once when she returned, they merely exchanged pleasantries back then.
This was the first time Stefanie came to her place.
Ellen warmly welcomed her in. "Stefanie! What brings you here?"
Stefanie smiled and replied, "I came to see you since I am free today." She then looked around. "Are you the only
one at home?"
Ellen had a helpless but indulgent look in her eyes as she chuckled. "Brian is also at home, but he hasn't woken up
yet."
"Does he still pass out often?" Stefanie was surprised. "I remember he had this condition since he was young. He
would always faint for no reason, right? How is he now?"
Awkwardly, Ellen uttered, "He is okay now."
"I'm glad. That would be so scary otherwise. You will have to worry all the time," Stefanie commented.
