Chapter 1236 How Ungrateful!

Jewel chuckled. "Okay."

Olivia asked, "How are Phantom's skills? Did she improve?"

Jewel scoffed in disdain. "Improve? I think she has gotten worse than when we were

around. Maybe she stopped trying so hard after gaining her status. I finished her soon

enough."

Olivia asked, "Didn't she use her darts on you?"

Jewel pouted. "Of course, she did. However, I was on constant guard against her darts. I

dodged all the darts she threw at me. It was scary, but I'm fine."

Olivia smiled as she gave Jewel a thumbs-up. However, she still scanned Jewel from head

to toe, making sure that the latter was truly fine before saying, "Let me have a look at the

antidote."

Jewel took out a red bottle. "This is the antidote. I don't know what the others are for."

Olivia scooted closer to take a whiff, but Jewel stopped her. "Don't smell it. What if you get

poisoned?"

Olivia patted Jewel comfortingly. "It's okay. Let me analyze its ingredients so that we can

replicate it. It's only fair that we do unto her what she did unto us."

"Can you do it too?"

"How hard can it be? I'm not as immoral as she is, that's all."

Jewel was excited. "Then you can expand your research. Maybe make something that we

can apply to our bodies to protect ourselves. The sort that won't take lives, but will impair

someone's ability to fight."

Olivia thought about it and said, "All right, I'll look into that. But for now, I should save

your boyfriend's life."

Jewel said, "Don't tell him that I went to Phantom's place."

Olivia teased her. "Is that how much you like him? So much so that you even want to hide

this from him?"

Jewel's face reddened in embarrassment as she glared at Olivia. "It's over now, so why

make him worry?"

Olivia chuckled. "All right, I'll stop teasing you. Hurry and get your boyfriend here!"

Jewel said, "Okay. I'll check if he has woken up."

With that, she went straight to Alex's room. He was still sleeping.

Jewel walked over to him as if it were the most natural thing in the world. She touched his

head and mumbled, "Good, there's no fever."

It was only then that Alex slowly roused. When he saw Jewel, a smile instantly appeared

on his face. "Jewel."

"How are you feeling?"

"I think I slept too much. I'm feeling dizzy and weak."

"You had a fever last night, but Olivia has already developed an antidote. She'll let you try

it later."

Alex was surprised. "Really? Is Olivia that amazing?"

Jewel replied, "Yes. You should get ready now. I'll ask Olivia to come in and dress your

wounds."

Alex felt a little sorry as he slowly got up. "I think I should go out instead."

Jewel said, "Don't move. You're feeling dizzy, aren't you?"

Alex didn't insist further, for it was true that he felt weak and powerless. No wonder Olivia

and Jewel were so terrified; the poison was truly potent.

Seeing that Alex was more or less ready, Jewel got up and asked Olivia to come in.

When Olivia entered, she smiled and teased, "Feels good to be served, doesn't it?"

Alex glanced at Jewel. "It does. If possible, I'm fine with lying like this forever."

Olivia rolled her eyes in exasperation. "You're even thinking of lying down forever? Do you

want Jewel and me to serve you all your life?"

"I was just trying to prove a point."

"That won't do. You should recover as soon as you can. Even if you don't mind it, I do."

"How can I not mind it? Are you the type who can't see couples getting all lovey-dovey just

because your boyfriend isn't here?"

Olivia looked coldly at him. "How ungrateful! Without my help, how can you two even be

together?"

Alex reached up and slapped his mouth. "Sorry, I shouldn't have said that. I will always

remember your kindness."

Olivia snorted haughtily. "Fine, I'll let you off for Jewel's sake. If not…"

She chuckled twice, and Alex felt his hairs stand on end when he heard it.

"What? Are you trying to sow discord?" As Alex spoke, he took Jewel's hand as if he were

seriously afraid that Jewel would leave him.
