Hector looked at Olivia. "But it'd be unfair to her if I dragged her into this."
Olivia smiled. "And you said you didn't like her, but you're actually worried about her."
Sheepishly, Hector said, "I have to take responsibility."
"You should," replied Olivia. "Her last marriage failed, so she's going to be very insecure. If
she decides to date you, then hold her tight. No one can see the future. Maybe what
you're worried about won't happen. You're not getting any younger, so seize every
moment you can. If you like her, go for it. Don't factor us into the equation. Eugene and I
are very supportive of you two."
For some reason, Hector got nervous. "Eugene knows too?"
Olivia said, "You made it too obvious."
God damn.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlex was in Eugene's room and told Eugene about the meeting with Damian.
Surprised, Eugene asked, "Did he see Jewel?"
Alex sighed. "I don't know, but I think he did. Wouldn't have been that shocked if he'd only
seen me."
Eugene narrowed his eyes. "Then you'll have to find him ASAP. If he knows that Jewel had
joined the Double Dragon Court, or worse, if he was involved in it, then the Court might
know that she's still alive."
Alex said, "And that's what I'm worried about. The Court hasn't made its move, and we
can't use our trump card yet. If Jonathan and Joseph do nothing, I'll ignore them."
Eugen said, "You two should fly back soon. It's safer on our turf."
"Jewel won't leave. She's worried about Olivia and the kids. I'll stay with her. I think you
should go back. Once you get back to us, I think I can take her home with me."
"Fine. Then you seek Damian out. I'll go back tomorrow and come back in about three
days."
"Sure."
"Are you sure that's the place he's in?" asked Eugene.
"More or less. If I miss him, I can always check the casino." And he left.
Eugene made a call to get some bodyguards over. There were women, children, and the
elderly here. With Damian roaming around, he thought things were getting dangerous.
Alex was about to leave when Jewel came up to him. "Where are you going?" She was in a
hat and mask, and she had makeup on. Alex almost couldn't recognize her.
"Jewel?"
Jewel laughed. "Seeking Damian out? I'm going with you."
Alex laughed and hugged her. "Don't. I don't want him seeing you. If he contacts the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCourt, it'd be bad for you."
"It's alright. He must've seen me yesterday anyway. Besides, if the Court does know I'm
still alive, you think hiding's going to do me any good?" She held his hand and softly said,
"I don't want you to do this alone."
She wasn't trying to be cute or anything, but Alex still thought this was too much for him
anyway. She was seldom so sweet and gentle, and his mind was buzzing from the
overload. As if he was mesmerized, he said, "Fine."
A smug smile curled Jewel's lip. "Let's go then." She dragged him away.
Alex was about to go, but then he snapped out of it. "No. I'm still worried. You should stay
back. You might think nothing of your safety, but Olivia and the kids need you."
Jewel wanted to say something, but Alex huddled closer and kissed her forehead. Like a
father cajoling his young child, he said, "Just wait for me. I'll be back in a moment."
