Chapter 970 Trying to Figure Out the Reason

Olivia leaned over and chuckled. “Let me check your wounds.”

Stefanie hid further into the bed. “Why should I?”

“Then I supposed it’s okay if I ask Alex to come inside and see the doctor tending your wounds?”

After that, Olivia pretended to go for the door.

“S-Stop it right there!”

She stopped in her tracks and turned to watch the woman who called out to her. “Finally coming clean?”

Stefanie didn’t answer, but it was a tacit admission anyway.

Regret was written all over her face. I should’ve kept my composure. I wouldn’t have given myself away if I could control my temper when I saw them.

Olivia returned to the bed and studied Stefanie’s face. “I know you’re trying to break Alex and Jewel apart by scaring him. But can’t you tell Jewel has lost her memories? She might have feelings for him, but it can’t be deeper than Alex’s for her. The way you handle things only hurt him in the end. She’s the woman who has been on his mind for over eight years, and you’re his mother who raised him. How can he choose between the two of you? Do you think your son coming to the hospital to take care of you every day is a victory? Do you have any idea how much it hurt him?”

Tears rolled down Stefanie’s cheeks. “I forbid them to be together! It’s wrong!”

Olivia frowned. “That’s all I want to say. I won’t tell the others, but it’s better to tell him yourself. You can’t hide the fact that there’s no wound on your wrist after you go home, and you can’t depend on an artificial wound to cover your lies forever. Once he finds out you’ve been lying to him, he will stop believing every word you say in the future. Do you remember the story of the boy who cried wolf? It’s not easy to regain someone’s trust.”

Olivia laanad ovar and chucklad. “Lat ma chack your wounds.”
