To Tell or Not to Tell
After a while, the police came to the scene of the crime. When they noticed that Alex was also injured,
they didn’t immediately assume that Alex had given Damian a one-sided beatdown. Instead, they
immediately classified the case as a brawl between the two.
Later, Alex relayed to the police how that mysterious woman killed Damian and how he chased after
her.
The police eventually concluded that Alex and Damian were indeed harmed by the same assassination
weapon when they checked the wounds on their necks. After that, they retrieved the surveillance
camera’s footage and confirmed that Alex did fight the said woman. Hence, they finished recording
Alex’s statement in no time, eliminated him as a suspect, and simply requested him not to leave Mastar
for the time being and cooperate with the authorities to catch the real murderer.
Sure enough, Alex also directed the lead to the upper-level management of the casino. Now that they
had a woman behaving like an assassin and the darts as weapons, which is the most convincing
evidence, the police will definitely apply for a warrant to search the casino.
After Peter saw the police off, he looked at Alex and asked, “So, can we go to the hospital now?”
Alex smiled. Indeed, I have to get my wound treated. Otherwise, Jewel will definitely be worried if she
sees my injury. However, an overwhelming sense of self-blame, remorse, and hysteria engulfed him as
soon as Alex thought of Jewel. As a result, he remained silent and down throughout the journey to the
hospital.
When Peter sensed Alex was in a bad mood, he asked, “What’s wrong?”
Since Alex didn’t know how to explain this convoluted mess to Peter, he simply replied vaguely, “I have
just found out something from Damian. I feel that I am greatly indebted to my girlfriend.”
Even though Peter did not fully understand what Alex meant, he still comforted him, “Well, not
everything Damian said might be true. So, take it with a pinch of salt. Make it up to your girlfriend if you
feel you wronged her.”
Alex simply hummed in response.
The two arrived at the hospital, and the doctor wrapped Alex’s wounds in a bandage. According to the
doctor, the injury on Alex’s neck is merely a flesh wound and nothing serious. As for the stab wound on
his waist, the doctor advised Alex to be hospitalized for two days to monitor the condition.
Unfortunately, as Alex’s mind was utterly preoccupied with Jewel, he couldn’t possibly agree to the
doctor’s suggestion. Thus, he dismissed the doctor’s advice without a single shred of hesitation. To his
surprise, as soon as he got into the car with Peter, he received a call from Jewel.
As expected… Alex couldn’t help but curl the corner of his mouth into a slight smile when he saw the
call. He swiped the answer button on the screen, and Jewel’s voice immediately sounded, “Why aren’t
you back yet?”
Frankly, because Jewel’s voice had just recovered, it sounded slightly hoarse and wasn’t so pleasing to
the ears when she talked. However, Alex didn’t dislike it at all. He thought her voice sounded
melodious. Alex didn’t even notice that he had softened his tone as he replied, “You’re probably
anxious from waiting for me, right? I’m fine. I’m heading home now.”
“Okay. I shall wait for you, then. You haven’t eaten yet, right? What do you want to eat? I’ll make it for
you,” said Jewel.
“It’s okay. I’ll just have a bite of the leftovers at home,” Alex declined.
Alas, Jewel grumbled with displeasure upon hearing that, “No, no. I can’t allow that. Drive home safely
while I cook some food for you.” After that, she hung up the phone.
Peter noticed his change of mood as he smiled and asked, “Your girlfriend?”
Alex’s eyes beamed with genuine happiness as he nodded at Peter with a smile. “Yeah.”
“It looks like you love her a lot.”
Alex didn’t deny it either. “She has suffered a lot for my sake.” Alex, once again, felt down in the dumps
at the mention of this matter. How should I tell Jewel that my mom was the mastermind behind every
single incident that happened to her? Should I just lie to her? Then again, I would be unworthy of
Jewel’s kindness and wholehearted trust if I did so. But if I tell Jewel the truth—she will undoubtedly
break up with me. Although Damian was responsible for her mother’s death, her mother wouldn’t have
died if Mom hadn’t insisted on driving Jewel out of the country. Jewel loves her mother dearly, so she
will never forgive Mom, let alone be together with me. Alex closed his eyes in anguish. Even though it
hurt, he concluded that he would keep his lips sealed regarding this matter and never tell Jewel.
Once they arrived at the clinic, he got out of the car and said to Peter slightly apologetically, “It seems
that I have to treat you to a nice meal some other time.”
Peter smiled and said jovially, “Bring your girlfriend. I want to meet this woman who has made you fall
head over heels for her.”
“Sure,” Alex responded with a smile.
Alex only entered the clinic’s backyard after he watched Peter’s car drive away.
The light in the living room was still on, and only Jewel sat alone on the sofa, looking out anxiously. She
is anticipating my return! Even though such a realization made Alex feel happy and warm, his eyes
welled up with tears as he tasted an inexplicably bitter tang on his tongue. Just how many lifetimes of
love do I have to shower Jewel to be worthy of such a wonderful girl like her?
