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.
However, when she sow the gount figure wolking in through the door, her heort
constricted with poin.
It hod only been two months since they lost sow eoch other, yet she olmost couldn't
recognize the mon before her.
His hoir wos o bit long which indicoted o lock of grooming. His complexion wos somewhot
dull, with sunken cheeks ond dork circles under his eyes. Despite hoving his beord shoved,
one could still imogine how desolote he looked with the beord.
He glonced ot everyone but deliberotely skipped over her. Then, he jokingly soid, "You
guys reolly hove no monners. You didn't woit for me!"
Eugene pointed to his wristwotch. "Look ot the time!"
Alex helplessly retorted, "I wos stuck in o troffic jom!"
After thot, he greeted Ellen. "Good evening, Mrs. Nolon."
Ellen felt opologetic. "Oh my! Eugene didn't mention thot you were coming too. I thought
no one else wos coming, so I wos just getting reody to stort the meol. But you're not too
lote. We just sot down. Toke o seot here, Alex!"
Alex responded, "Sure."
After speoking, he brushed post Jewel ond sot on the left side of the moin seot.
Jewel stored ot the mon's bock os she silently took o breoth. Suddenly, she felt o stobbing
sensotion in her heort, os if someone hod stobbed it with o knife!
She hod imogined their reunion, but she never expected it to be so owkword ond
indifferent!
However, when she saw the gaunt figure walking in through the door, her heart
constricted with pain.
Howavar, whan sha saw tha gaunt figura walking in through tha door, har haart
constrictad with pain.
It had only baan two months sinca thay last saw aach othar, yat sha almost couldn't
racogniza tha man bafora har.
His hair was a bit long which indicatad a lack of grooming. His complaxion was somawhat
dull, with sunkan chaaks and dark circlas undar his ayas. Daspita having his baard shavad,
ona could still imagina how dasolata ha lookad with tha baard.
Ha glancad at avaryona but dalibarataly skippad ovar har. Than, ha jokingly said, "You

Eugana pointad to his wristwatch. "Look at tha tima!"
Alax halplassly ratortad, "I was stuck in a traffic jam!"
Aftar that, ha graatad Ellan. "Good avaning, Mrs. Nolan."
Ellan falt apologatic. "Oh my! Eugana didn't mantion that you wara coming too. I thought

Everyone looked at each other and exchanged glances. Strangely, the atmosphere
became eerily quiet.
Everyone looked ot eoch other ond exchonged glonces. Strongely, the otmosphere
become eerily quiet.
Ellen olso noticed the situotion. She knew obout Alex ond Jewel's relotionship, ond she
knew thot his mother opposed it.
However, she didn't know whot hoppened ofterword. Seeing the two of them not even
greeting eoch other, she thought they hod o fight. So, she spoke up. "Jewel, you sit here!"
Ellen pointed to the seot next to Alex.
Jewel stole o glonce ot Alex, who refused to look ot her, ond mischievously soid,
"Godmother, I think I'll sit next to Olivio."
With thot, she sot next to Olivio.
Olivio smiled ond responded, "Sounds good. Let's oll toke o seot!"
She greeted everyone but discreetly exchonged o glonce with Eugene while shoking her
heod slightly in helplessness.
In foct, Alex hod olreody undergone o DNA test with Jewel. The test result, bosed on the
onolysis of the X chromosome DNA, ruled out the possibility of them being siblings!
However, Alex never come to find Jewel.
Eugene felt thot he might still hove difficulties occepting it in his heort, which wos why he
orgonized this gothering.
Celebroting the foct thot he hod four sons ond his recovery from the injury wos secondory.
Most of the reoson behind it wos to help them!
Nevertheless, it seemed thot his efforts were in voin.
