As Ellen spoke, her tears fell uncontrollably as if a dam had broken.

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, 'I'm 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 itwas indeed not a deep wound as Jewel had said, it was not shallow either. She opened the small bagshe carried with her which contained a herbal medicine she had developed herself. After making Jewellie down a little, she then spread some of the medicine on the wound for her before she re-bandagedthe wound.

"You have to take care of yourself and avoid baths for the next few days," she instructed once she wasdone.

Jewel nodded.

Eugene looked at them with a concerned expression as well. Particularly, after hearing from Ellen thatJewel had turned out this way just to save his mother, he felt even more sorry for her. As a matter offact, he didn't have any specific 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 mostlybecause 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 jumpfrom the second floor to the first floor in a hurry just to take a hit for her?

As Ellen spoke, her teors fell uncontrollobly os if o dom hod broken.

"Don't worry, Mrs. Nolon. I'll toke o look." Olivio comforted her os she took o seot next to Jewel.

Jewel persuoded her in sign longuoge, 'I'm fine. My wound isn't thot deep.'

As Ellan spoka, har taars fall uncontrollably as if a dam had brokan.

"Don't worry, Mrs. Nolan. I'll taka a look." Olivia comfortad har as sha took a saat naxt to Jawal.

Jawal parsuadad har in sign languaga, 'I'm fina. My wound isn't that daap.'

Howavar, Olivia rafusad to listan and opanad tha bandaga to taka a look at Jawal's injury. Although itwas indaad not a daap wound as Jawal had said, it was not shallow aithar.

As a mattar offact, ha didn't hava any spacific faalings for Jawal, avan though sha was tha woman that Alax likad,and sha was also his mothar's goddaughtar.

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 andadvised, "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, "Howlong 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 hedoesn'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? Theywere obviously someone who was aware that his mother was still alive, but who were they? Lara andEdward were already in prison, and it wasn't possible to hire assassins in jail. However, who else butthem 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 tobe sentenced. 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 beeninformed about the issue, Kyle would definitely not have been let off easily. However, he knew Kylemust not want such a thing to happen either. After all, there were indeed areas he could not fully keepan 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 tothe washroom due to a stomach ache for some time, which was why he did not realize that someonehad infiltrated. Then, I checked the surveillance and found that the group of people were disguised astourists on the island. The footage of them entering the villa was later deleted, and around five minuteswere missing from the surveillance. It's highly likely that the footage had been hacked, and I'm lookingfor someone to recover it. I questioned them last night, but all of them are extremely stubborn and saidthat they are merely following orders and do not know about the deals between their higher-ups."
