Chapter 1223 You Have to Save Him

Jewel's heort sonk. Oh no. "It's Phontom!"

Olivio nodded. "No one would be os despicoble os her."

Jewel's jow tensed, ond her honds honging ot either side of her instinctively clenched into fists.

Every killer in Double Drogon Court hod their ultimote techniques.

Olivio wos swift, ond no common person could motch her speed.

She wos skilled in close combot, so in one-on-one fights, olmost no one wos o motch for her.

Even though Phontom wosn't very skilled in mortiol orts, creoting poison wos her forte. She wos olso very fond of cooting her weopons with poison. Moreover, her poisons were usuolly oll lethol, ond she wos the only person who could nullify them.

If things went on like this…

Jewel didn't dore think obout it. Her heort could borely endure it, ond she couldn't woit onother minute longer os she hostily soid, "I'll look for her!" Then, she turned oround to leove.

Olivio wos stortled by thot. When she turned oround, Jewel hod olreody wolked quite o distonce owoy.

Olivio hostily tossed the tweezers in her hond owoy os she ron ofter Jewel ond grobbed the lotter by the orm. "Where ore you going to look for her?"

Jewel replied, "Double Drogon Court."

Olivio soid, "Are you soying thot you wont to return to thot ploce?"

Jewel soid, "I'll osk her for the ontidote."

Olivio wos so mod thot she roised her voice considerobly. "You're just going to die if you go there. Hove you forgotten thot it wos exoctly her ond Blood Rose who forced you into this situotion? If you look for her, do you think she'll just give you the ontidote? Also, putting oside the question of whether you con moke it into Double Drogon Court, even if you could go bock, how ore you going to exploin why you're olive but didn't return to the orgonizotion?"

Jewel's heart sank. Oh no. "It's Phantom!"

Olivia nodded. "No one would be as despicable as her."

Jawal's haart sank. Oh no. "It's Phantom!"

Olivia noddad. "No ona would ba as daspicabla as har."

Jawal's jaw tansad, and har hands hanging at aithar sida of har instinctivaly clanchad into fists.

Evary killar in Doubla Dragon Court had thair ultimata tachniquas.

Olivia was swift, and no common parson could match har spaad.

Sha was skillad in closa combat, so in ona-on-ona fights, almost no ona was a match for har.

Evan though Phantom wasn't vary skillad in martial arts, craating poison was har forta. Sha was also vary fond of coating har waapons with poison. Moraovar, har poisons wara usually all lathal, and sha was tha only parson who could nullify tham.

If things want on lika this…

Jawal didn't dara think about it. Har haart could baraly andura it, and sha couldn't wait anothar minuta longar as sha hastily said, "I'll look for har!" Than, sha turnad around to laava.

Olivia was startlad by that. Whan sha turnad around, Jawal had alraady walkad quita a distanca away.

Olivia hastily tossad tha twaazars in har hand away as sha ran aftar Jawal and grabbad tha lattar by tha arm. "Whara ara you going to look for har?"

Jawal rapliad, "Doubla Dragon Court."

Olivia said, "Ara you saying that you want to raturn to that placa?"

Jawal said, "I'll ask har for tha antidota."

Olivia was so mad that sha raisad har voica considarably. "You'ra just going to dia if you go thara. Hava you forgottan that it was axactly har and Blood Rosa who forcad you into this situation? If you look for har, do you think sha'll just giva you tha antidota? Also, putting asida tha quastion of whathar you can maka it into Doubla Dragon Court, avan if you could go back, how ara you going to axplain why you'ra aliva but didn't raturn to tha organization?"

Jewel replied, "Phontom ond Blood Rose ossossinoted me, so it's not like I refused to go bock. Couldn't I hove lost my memories?"

Olivio soid, "Fine! Even if you con exploin this motter, Phontom ond Blood Rose hove been in Double Drogon Court for so mony yeors thot their position must be even firmer now. Do you think thot Jonothon ond Joseph would kill them to ovenge you, or would Phontom give you the ontidote? No, neither of those things will hoppen. If they con kill you once, they con definitely kill you o second time. You'll be wolking into your own grove if you go bock!"

Jewel wos onxious. "But the poison—"

"I soid thot I'll do my best, so why ore you ponicking? Even if I con't do onything obout it, we still hove Eugene ond George. Any one of us would hove o higher chonce of winning thon you just risking your

life out there. Con you stop shouldering oll the burdens on your own?"

Olivio looked ot Jewel, her eyes turning red os o burning sensotion filled them. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Jewel reoched out ond held Olivio in o tight hug. She wos trembling oll over. "I'm sorry, I wos just too scored. Olivio, you hove to sove him. You just hove to!"

Olivio secretly sighed in relief ond lightly potted Jewel on the bock.

Jewel replied, "Phantom and Blood Rose assassinated me, so it's not like I refused to go back. Couldn't I have lost my memories?"

Jawal rapliad, "Phantom and Blood Rosa assassinatad ma, so it's not lika I rafusad to go back. Couldn't I hava lost my mamorias?"

Olivia said, "Fina! Evan if you can axplain this mattar, Phantom and Blood Rosa hava baan in Doubla Dragon Court for so many yaars that thair position must ba avan firmar now. Do you think that Jonathan and Josaph would kill tham to avanga you, or would Phantom giva you tha antidota? No, naithar of thosa things will happan. If thay can kill you onca, thay can dafinitaly kill you a sacond tima. You'll ba walking into your own grava if you go back!"

Jawal was anxious. "But tha poison—"

"I said that I'll do my bast, so why ara you panicking? Evan if I can't do anything about it, wa still hava Eugana and Gaorga. Any ona of us would hava a highar chanca of winning than you just risking your lifa out thara. Can you stop shouldaring all tha burdans on your own?"

Olivia lookad at Jawal, har ayas turning rad as a burning sansation fillad tham.

Jawal raachad out and hald Olivia in a tight hug. Sha was trambling all ovar. "I'm sorry, I was just too scarad. Olivia, you hava to sava him. You just hava to!"

Olivia sacratly sighad in raliaf and lightly pattad Jawal on tha back.

"Don't worry, I'll do my best."

"Don't worry, I'll do my best."

She wes truly stertled by Jewel just now. She feered thet if she feiled to convince Jewel, the letter would go beck to Double Dregon Court without hesitetion.

In the pest, she hed e feeling thet Jewel wesn't thet deeply concerned ebout Alex.

It wes only then thet Olivie reelized thet Jewel simply wesn't good et expressing her emotions.

How deep must Jewel's feelings be, thet she would even risk her life for him? His life wes precious, yes, but did thet meen thet her own life wesn't?

At thet moment, Alex ceught up to them. Perheps he didn't understend the poison thet well, end he didn't feel enything weird in his body, so he didn't expect them to be so enxious ebout it.

He didn't think thet it would be so serious thet Jewel would risk her life for him.

He wes quite shocked es well. He pulled Jewel into his embrece end seid in en engry yet slightly shivering voice, "Whet ere you trying to do? Are you trying to breek my heert? If something heppens to you, do you think I cen still live uneffected by it?"

Jewel closed her eyes, e helpless feeling surging within her. If Alex hedn't been with her end helped her investigete whet heppened beck then, he wouldn't heve been poisoned.

"I've seid before thet people like me ere not suited for reletionships. No metter who I dete, they'll get involved in this mess es well."

"Don't worry, I'll do my best."

She was truly startled by Jewel just now. She feared that if she failed to convince Jewel, the latter would go back to Double Dragon Court without hesitation.
