Chapter 1146 Jewel’s Aunt
Strangely, a surge of despair arose in his heart. Despite countless events, he did not
blame the man for abandoning him and his mother. All he wanted to blame him for was
the torments his treachery caused for him and the woman he loved.
"Alex?" Edmont peered at his son, his heart thumping in excitement as he reached out to
grab him.
However, Alex dodged his hand and scornfully mocked, "Who do you think you are?"
Thinking that Alex might have forgotten him, Edmont warily asked, "Alex, it's me, your
father. Do you not remember me?"
Alex let out a snicker as his eyes reddened. "My father? He's been dead ever since I was
five."
At once, Edmont stood on the ground frozen, staring at the young man with his eyes full of
devastation. So, he's still blaming me for the past…

Having no desire to look at him, Alex dragged Jewel, who was in Winnie's arms, over with a
hostile gaze and scorned, "Aren't you two of a kind? You abandoned us, so you should've
expected that we want nothing to do with you, and now, you're here pretending to be
close to us?"
Edmont glanced at Jewel before turning back to Alex. What is he saying? Was Jean
abandoned as well? Does he seriously think Winnie is Jewel's mother?
Hastily, Eugene pulled Alex over and whispered, "Helena and Winnie Parker are two
different people! This one's Winnie Parker, Jewel's aunt!"
Surprised by the revelation, Alex gazed at Eugene before turning to Winnie. "So, you're not
Jewel's mother?"
She chuckled. "I'm her aunt, her mother's twin."
No wonder they looked the same… Alex stood still in awkwardness, realizing how his
mother mistakenly blamed Jewel and her mother. For some reason, he felt rather happy,
as nothing could stop him from being with Jewel anymore! As his agitation slowly waned,
he asked, "But what about Jewel's mother?"
Winnie furrowed her brows. "That confuses me as well. I contacted her once eight years
ago. She said she went to Mastar with Jewel, and we lost contact since then. I've been
looking for her all these years too."
Hearing that, Alex grew suspicious. So, where did she go? She wouldn't vanish into
nowhere, would she? He looked at Jewel and felt a complicated emotion in his heart as
she, the only person who might know anything, had lost her memories.
Frankly, he had always felt sorry for Jewel for this. Back then, had his mother not driven
her away, she would not have had to experience so much pain, and her mother would not
have gone missing.
Winnie then looked at Jewel in dismay. What has she experienced? Why would she have
lost her memories out of nowhere? Even if she did, her mother should've stayed by her
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmside to care for her. What could've led them to split up?
"Jean, how did you lose your memories?"
Jewel shook her head. "I don't know." Back then, when she had woken up, she found
herself in Double Dragon Court, beaten to consciousness.
At that moment, everyone grew silent, for most felt sympathetic for her. All of a sudden, a
shout came from the resting room. "Winnie Parker!"
At once, the crowd turned to the source of the sound, only to see Stefanie vexedly walking
toward Winnie as if she was a beast charging straight into a fight. "How brazen of you to
come back here!" When she was done speaking, she was already in front of Winnie,
raising her hand to swing her hand at her.
Dissatisfied by that, Edmont grasped Stefanie's wrist and sternly yelled, "That's enough!
It's been so many years, yet you're still this rash! Can you never move on from the past?"
"Yes, that's right!" She struggled in uncontrollable rage as if she was a psycho, screaming,
"I'll never move on! Since you've decided to leave us behind, why have you returned
now?!"
