Chapter 772
As Ellen spoke, her tears fell uncontrollably as if a dam had broken.
"Don't worry, Mrs. Nolan. I'll take a look." Olivia comforted her as she took a seat next to Jewel.
Jewel persuaded her in sign language, Tm fine. My wound isn't that deep.'
However, Olivia refused to listen and opened the bandage to take a look at Jewel's injury. Although it was indeed not
a deep wound as Jewel had said, it was not shallow either. She opened the small bag she carried with her which
contained a herbal medicine she had developed herself. After making Jewel lie down a little, she then spread some
of the medicine on the wound for her before she re bandaged the wound.
"You have to take care of yourself and avoid baths for the next few days," she instructed once she was done.
Jewel nodded.
Eugene looked at them with a concerned expression as well. Particularly, after hearing from Ellen that Jewel had
turned out this way just to save his mother, he felt even more sorry for her. As a matter of fact, he didn't have any
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtspecific feelings for Jewel, even though she was the woman that Alex liked, and she was also his mother's
goddaughter.
Nevertheless, his friendly attitude toward her was mostly because she was Olivia's friend who had gone through fire
and water with her.
Today, he was thoroughly shaken to his core. How important was Ellen to Jewel that made her jump from the
second floor to the first floor in a hurry just to take a hit for her?
He asked, "Olivia, Jewel is fine, right?"
Olivia replied, "Her wound isn't shallow. She probably needs some time to recover."
Hearing that, Ellen asked anxiously, "Olivia, how long will it take?"
"At least half a month for her to fully recover." As Olivia spoke, she walked over and asked, "Mrs. Nolan, I can see a
wound on your neck. Are you hurt?"
Ellen felt her neck and denied, "I'm fine. I just cut myself a little."
"Let me have a look." Olivia gave her another check to make sure it was nothing to worry about and advised, "Don't
get it wet either."
Ellen said, "I got it. Can you take another look at Alex? The doctor said he has a concussion."
Olivia checked Alex's pulse. Though it was weak, his condition was fine in general. She asked, "How long has he
been in a coma?"
Ellen replied, "He hasn't woken up since yesterday."
Olivia placed his hand down and pried his eyes open to examine them. "Wait a little longer. If he doesn't wake up,
we'll have to take an X-ray to see if he has any hemorrhages."
Ellen agreed, "All right."
Eugene felt burdened. Who exactly was the person who actually came here to assassinate them? They were
obviously someone who was aware that his mother was still alive, but who were they? Lara and Edward were
already in prison, and it wasn't possible to hire assassins in jail. However, who else but them would attempt to take
his mother's life?
At that thought, he gave the others a heads up and went straight downstairs, where Kyle was waiting to be
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsentenced. He had stayed up all night just to investigate this matter.
After seeing Eugene, he hurriedly stepped forward and greeted with a bow, "Mr. Nolan!"
At that moment, Eugene had already calmed down a lot. If this was during the time he had just been informed
about the issue, Kyle would definitely not have been let off easily. However, he knew Kyle must not want such a
thing to happen either. After all, there were indeed areas he could not fully keep an eye on while managing a large
island like this.
"What exactly is going on?"
Kyle explained, "I questioned the person on duty in the surveillance room. During that time, he went to the
washroom due to a stomach ache for some time, which was why he did not realize that someone had infiltrated.
Then, I checked the surveillance and found that the group of people were disguised as tourists on the island. The
footage of them entering the villa was later deleted, and around five minutes were missing from the surveillance.
It's highly likely that the footage had been hacked, and I'm looking for someone to recover it. I questioned them last
night, but all of them are extremely stubborn and said that they are merely following orders and do not know about
the deals between their higher-ups."
