Chapter 991 Jewel Is Back
As Olivia spoke, George walked out of North's room and said, "Why did it take so long to go get someone?"
"George?" Jewel called out with a smile.
Smiling, he walked over to her and replied, "Hi, Jewel."
He reached out and pulled her into his embrace. "It's great to see you again. I didn't expect to see you."
Her tears also fell at his words. Perhaps no one could understand their feelings. They were comrades who had
experienced life and death together, watched each other's backs, and fought side by side in dangerous situations.
"I feel the same way. It's great to see you all."
George let go of Jewel and stated, "Let me have a good look at you. You've lost weight and look even more
beautiful now."

"Sit down," he said while gesturing for her to sit. "Is your throat better?"
"Yes, it's much better," Jewel reassured. "Olivia helped me to regulate it. She gives me a prescription every month,
and now I can speak a lot at once, albeit slowly. She said I will get better with practice."
"Don't worry. Actually, it's already much better now. Are you still taking the medication?"
"No, I'm not. I went to the hospital with Olivia the other day to run some tests. She said my throat has recovered
and the rest can be improved with practice."
Sighing, he murmured, "I'm sorry you suffered so much."
"It's okay. I'm actually quite lucky. If I were still in the Double Dragon Court, even if I managed to escape this time,
there would surely be another time. They will eventually kill me sooner or later."
"Phantom and Blood Rose have long been unable to tolerate the three of us. As soon as we left, they blamed it all
on you."
At this point, George sighed again. "It's all my fault. I could have redeemed you back if only I had more money.
Then, you wouldn't have had to suffer. I considered taking Olivia first because of her child. I never thought that we
would get the news of your death when we returned a month later. I blamed myself and Olivia almost cried her
heart out."
Jewel smiled. "It's okay. It's all in the past. I'm back with you guys, aren't I?"
He hugged her again affectionately. "Thank goodness you're okay."
Olivia also leaned over. "Okay, okay. Now that Jewel is still alive and well, it's a sign that the gods are watching over
us. They say those who survive a great disaster will have good fortune in the future. Her good fortune is yet to
come!"
Jewel also smiled at that. She turned to George and asked, "How did you get here? Didn't Olivia say you were

"Yeah. I came to see you guys and to ask North to find something."
…
In North's room, the boy stared closely at the computer screen, which displayed clear pictures of the Rogers
siblings—Carter, Blake, and Terry.
What does it mean? Why is Uncle George looking for them? Could he be the bad guy that the three little ones talked
about? What should I do? Should I reveal their address? No, I cannot do that yet.
Aside from the fact that he had promised to keep their whereabouts hidden, North had come to think of the three
little ones as his own family. How could he betray his family? If anything were to happen to them, he would be
responsible.
Besides, they are Daddy's children. Also, Uncle George didn't say what he wanted with them. Yes! I can't say
anything until I know more.
With that in mind, North deleted everything he searched for, shut down his computer, and left the room.
