Chapter 1263 What Kind of Boyfriend Was He?
With such a bloody grudge between them, Jewel could not resist the urge to murder Blood
Rose. At this thought, Olivia turned to her and said, "Do not speak as though I'm an
outsider. I do as I please. How was any of that your fault? I know you are eager to get your
revenge, but we are in no rush to kill her. Allow her a few days of independence while we
carefully plan our next move. We'll surely help you get your revenge."
After hearing this, Jewel sniffled and nodded fervently. "Okay." The only feelings that had
been going through her head up until this point were guilt, remorse, and regret. Why do I
always act without thinking things through? I didn't mind dying to exact my vengeance,
but that didn't mean I had to drag Olivia into this mess. I should have known she'd be so
foolish as to follow me.
Suddenly, Alex came to his senses and realized he had dwelled solely on his emotions,
concerns, and anxieties. Shoot! Jewel's perspective had never crossed my mind from the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtmoment I walked into the room. She must be experiencing overwhelming feelings of guilt
and responsibility that these people were hurt because of her. Instead of soothing her,
reassuring her, or backing her up, my voice has been very accusatory, even if it was out of
fear. What kind of boyfriend am I?
At this realization, he drew her closer into his embrace and said soothingly, "I'm so sorry,
Jewel. I wasn't blaming you for anything. I am only worried. You rushed into the fray
without a single moment of hesitation. What if something had happened to you? What
should I do then?"
However, Jewel reflexively licked her lips as she looked up at him, speechless. I must
admit that I did not spare him a single thought or a second of my time during that
dangerous conflict. Nevertheless, my only regret is that I got Olivia involved because if
anything were to happen to her, Eugene and their children would be drowning in agony.
Never in a million years did I give any thought to Alex's future if something happened to
me. Perhaps, because I still don't feel like I belong to him. Though I know my love for him
would not be as blessed as the love between Eugene and Olivia. Our relationship is not
anchored to anything; it could end anytime. Despite my undying affection for him, I cannot
bring myself to give myself entirely to this love. Therefore, I do not have the nerve to
openly claim that I am his. Since I have nothing to live for anymore, I can say without
hesitation that I am not afraid of dying.
As Alex's burning gaze bore into her, she felt surprisingly guilty and could see the concern
and misery in his eyes. It took a while before she found her voice again. "I won't do it
again."
Meanwhile, they had just finished settling into the room when the police finally arrived.
Olivia and the others were honest with the police and told them everything.
After finishing their statements, Jewel added, "Her name is Rose Blunt. She used to work
with me. Due to a personal grudge against me, she snuck into the hospital to murder Brett
Jams since I knew Brett. She planned to frame me for the murder but was unaware that
River had spotted her leaving the hospital. Due to his willingness to testify on my behalf,

would be dining here."
The police then examined the scene, recorded their statements, and documented their
injuries before arresting the waiter. By the time everything was done, it was late in the
middle of the night.
Olivia glanced at Albert and sighed, "I owe you another favor now."
"You can't call this a favor. Otherwise, you may refer to this as a shared challenging
experience," Albert responded.
She chuckled upon hearing this and added, "Bound in life and death."
He laughed at her response, saying, "I recall something you once said to me. You stated
that my friends must be people I can completely trust, even if they are unwilling to die by
my side. In that case, could I be considered one of your friends?"
She smiled and replied, "Of course."
After hearing their conversation, Eugene was at a loss for words. What is going on? Is
Albert seducing my girlfriend right under my nose? Even if he did save her, this is a little
too much.
