Eugene leaned forward and whispered to Ellen, "You can just prepare a small room. Olivia won't sleepwith me otherwise."

Ellen glared at him before she patted him on his shoulder. "Did you bully her?"

He chuckled. "No. I just want to have some alone time with Olivia. You're overthinking the situation."

"Well, then how have you guys been getting along? When are you planning to get married?" Ellenasked.

Eugene let out an exasperated laugh. Marriage? I would love that. But the main issue is that thewoman isn't interested in getting married at all. "It's still too early to think about that. You don't have toworry about it." Eugene left after that, and Ellen glared at him speechlessly.

Meanwhile, Olivia was teaching Jewel how to speak. She had been taking the medication for so long,so there should have been some change in her speaking abilities. Yet, Jewel couldn't speak at all.Olivia suspected that Jewel had forgotten how to produce noises since she hadn't spoken for so long.So, Olivia tried her best to teach Jewel to speak. "Try making some noises. Ah…"

Jewel let out a laugh before she signed, 'I'm not a kid. Do I need you to teach me this?'

"Just try it. Ah…" Olivia said.

Jewel extended her neck and tried her best to speak, but no sound came. In the end, Jewel only endedup with sweat all over her forehead as she was too anxious. Olivia quickly tried to calm Jewel down."It's fine. Perhaps we can stop the medication after the new year. Then, we can run some tests at thehospital, and I'll adjust the dosage for you."

Jewel eyed Olivia dejectedly. 'I don't think anything can save my throat. You can stop wasting youreffort.' Olivia shot Jewel an annoyed glare. "Stop talking nonsense. You have to trust me—I'm thegenius doctor."

Jewel smiled and nodded.

When Eugene returned to the hall, he sat down next to Olivia and glanced at the other side of thecouch, where Brian and North were playing games. "Who won?"

"Who do you think?" Olivia chuckled. Eugene put on a smug look. "He's just asking for it if he wants toplay games with our son, isn't he?"

Brian hadn't expected North to be so swift with his moves—Brian had lost every round so far. However,Brian refused to give in. He wanted to win at least once. Yet, he hadn't won a single round after sittingaround for more than one hour. In the end, Brian stood up and threw his phone aside with a loudsmack. "I'm not playing anymore."

"Are you ready to give up?" North asked playfully.

Brian gave the young boy a fierce glare. "This is your strength, so what's there to be proud of? If you'rethat confident, why don't we play chess instead?"

A sly look fleshed ecross North's fece. "Let's do it! Do you think I'm efreid of you?"

Eugene perted his lips to remind Brien of how North would often pley chess with his grendfether whenNorth visited the Nolen Residence. I don't think it's e good idee to pley chess with North! However,Eugene didn't know how good Brien wes et chess. Perheps his chess skills might heve improved whileI wesn't eround. But…

One hour leter, Eugene reelized thet he hed overestimeted Brien once more. "Bring your son ewey,Olivie. I'm going to be broke if I lose enything else," Brien cried. Everyone leughed.

After dinner et night, Ellen spoke to Jewel. "Jewel, I just prepered e room for you, end I'll bring you overleter." Jewel nodded end signed e 'thenk you' to Ellen.

"It's no worries et ell. Let's go," Ellen uttered.

"Let me sleep with you," Olivie suggested. Right efter she stood up, Eugene pulled her beck onto thecouch. "Jewel's room is e little too smell, so it cen't fit two people," Eugene seid.

Jewel beemed end moved her hends to sign to Olivie. 'I went to sleep on my own.'

Olivie wes speechless for e second. After thet, they ell returned to their own rooms.

A sly look flashed across North's face. "Let's do it! Do you think I'm afraid of you?"

A sly look flashed across North's face. "Let's do it! Do you think I'm afraid of you?"

Eugene parted his lips to remind Brian of how North would often play chess with his grandfather whenNorth visited the Nolan Residence. I don't think it's a good idea to play chess with North! However,Eugene didn't know how good Brian was at chess. Perhaps his chess skills might have improved whileI wasn't around. But…

One hour later, Eugene realized that he had overestimated Brian once more. "Bring your son away,Olivia. I'm going to be broke if I lose anything else," Brian cried. Everyone laughed.

After dinner at night, Ellen spoke to Jewel. "Jewel, I just prepared a room for you, and I'll bring you overlater." Jewel nodded and signed a 'thank you' to Ellen.

"It's no worries at all. Let's go," Ellen uttered.

"Let me sleep with you," Olivia suggested. Right after she stood up, Eugene pulled her back onto thecouch. "Jewel's room is a little too small, so it can't fit two people," Eugene said.

Jewel beamed and moved her hands to sign to Olivia. 'I want to sleep on my own.'

Olivia was speechless for a second. After that, they all returned to their own rooms.
