Dinner
Time seemed to pass incredibly slowly, and the distance felt unusually long. Jewel couldn’t see anyone;
she could only hear the increasingly intense beating of her own heart.
Thump, thump, thump…
Each beat was louder than the previous one as if the whole world could hear it.
She longed for that person to be him, yet she also feared it was him. She feared what would happen
after they met and what they would say to each other.
She had always believed that he invested more in this relationship, while she was the one devoid of
emotions and cold-blooded. She had also believed that she was strong, capable of both holding on and
letting go. However, she realized that she had already fallen deep into it today. She was weak and
unable to hold on or let go.
Every night, her longing overwhelmed her. How many times had she wanted to throw caution to the
wind and go find him, only to retreat at the last moment!
Initially, it was her rationality that suppressed these impulsive thoughts.
Later, when he didn’t come to find her either, she thought that perhaps he had already moved on with
someone else.
After all, a playboy like Alex was never lacking in women. So, fear took root in her heart, and she dared
not look for him anymore!
She even began to believe that maybe he didn’t like her that much after all!
Otherwise, how could he endure not coming to see her?
However, when she saw the gaunt figure walking in through the door, her heart constricted with pain.
It had only been two months since they last saw each other, yet she almost couldn’t recognize the man
before her.
His hair was a bit long which indicated a lack of grooming. His complexion was somewhat dull, with
sunken cheeks and dark circles under his eyes. Despite having his beard shaved, one could still
imagine how desolate he looked with the beard.
He glanced at everyone but deliberately skipped over her. Then, he jokingly said, “You guys really have
no manners. You didn’t wait for me!”
Eugene pointed to his wristwatch. “Look at the time!”
Alex helplessly retorted, “I was stuck in a traffic jam!”
After that, he greeted Ellen. “Good evening, Mrs. Nolan.”
Ellen felt apologetic. “Oh my! Eugene didn’t mention that you were coming too. I thought no one else
was coming, so I was just getting ready to start the meal. But you’re not too late. We just sat down.
Take a seat here, Alex!”
Alex responded, “Sure.”
After speaking, he brushed past Jewel and sat on the left side of the main seat.
Jewel stared at the man’s back as she silently took a breath. Suddenly, she felt a stabbing sensation in
her heart, as if someone had stabbed it with a knife!
She had imagined their reunion, but she never expected it to be so awkward and indifferent!
Everyone looked at each other and exchanged glances. Strangely, the atmosphere became eerily
quiet.
Ellen also noticed the situation. She knew about Alex and Jewel’s relationship, and she knew that his
mother opposed it.
However, she didn’t know what happened afterward. Seeing the two of them not even greeting each
other, she thought they had a fight. So, she spoke up. “Jewel, you sit here!”
Ellen pointed to the seat next to Alex.
Jewel stole a glance at Alex, who refused to look at her, and mischievously said, “Godmother, I think I’ll
sit next to Olivia.”
With that, she sat next to Olivia.
Olivia smiled and responded, “Sounds good. Let’s all take a seat!”
She greeted everyone but discreetly exchanged a glance with Eugene while shaking her head slightly
in helplessness.
In fact, Alex had already undergone a DNA test with Jewel. The test result, based on the analysis of the
X chromosome DNA, ruled out the possibility of them being siblings!
However, Alex never came to find Jewel.
Eugene felt that he might still have difficulties accepting it in his heart, which was why he organized this
gathering.
Celebrating the fact that he had four sons and his recovery from the injury was secondary. Most of the
reason behind it was to help them!
Nevertheless, it seemed that his efforts were in vain.
