Chapter 723
Chapter 723 A Pretentious and Scheming Bitch “I’m already used to living there. I’m not used to coming here. Dad, why don’t
you come with me to the island to retire? Gianna said that the temperature of the island is suitable for retirement!” Ellen laughed.
“Nah, I won’t go,” Old Man Nolan said. As he spoke, his voice suddenly became hoarse. His hand touched the back of the sofa
and his eyes looked around. His eyes were affectionate. “I have lived in this house for decades. I can’t bear to leave. There are
memories of your mother here.” Ellen looked at the surroundings. It was still the same familiar layout. Even the furniture was the
same as before. It seemed that he really could not bear to leave. “Dad. do they still come to the old house often?” “Yes. Silas.
Gianna, and my great-grandson will come to accompany me from time to time. Brian can come often in the future.’ Old Man
Nolan looked at Brian as he spoke. “Yes, grandpa!” Brian nodded. The few of them stayed in the old house until the afternoon
before leaving. Ellen followed Silas to Flore Brae, and Brian went there too. Then. Silas called Alex and asked him to bring Jewel
along. Ever since Alex had gotten Jewel an ID card in Promise Island... Jewel always felt that she owed him, so she agreed to
Alex’s request to be his personal bodyguard. But she didn’t know that Alex’s bodyguard was not resigning at all, but was on
leave to give her the position. She always thought that Alex really lacked a bodyguard and went to work on time every day,
almost inseparable from him. This made Alex so happy and excited. When she received the call today, she happily agreed. Less
than half an hour, the two of them arrived. When they entered the door, Jewel simply smiled at everyone. Then, she ran towards
Ellen and hugged Ellen in her arms. She shouted at her with all her might, “Mom!”
Ellen was overjoyed. She grabbed Jewel and said in surprise, “Jewel, you can talk now?” Jewel said while using sign language,
“Yes, a little!” “Very good. very good. This is very good. Take your time and don’t worry. As long as you can talk, you can practice
for a period of time.” Ellen smiled and hugged her again. “Gianna, you are really good.” She looked at Gianna. “Yes, very good.”
Alex looked at Gianna with gratitude in his eyes. “It is also the result of Jewel’s own hard work. You don’t know how hard she
works. She practices every day with a book.” Gianna smiled. Ellen said, “Don’t worry, we have to do it step by step. If you
overuse your throat, it will not make up for the loss.” Jewel said slowly, “I know!” The few of them sat down. Silas went to the
kitchen to prepare food. Alex was polite and didn’t want to just sit there. Although he could not cook, his attitude was worthy of
praise. He followed Silas into the kitchen. Gianna originally wanted to help, but Silas refused. He knew that she had not
recovered yet. So he asked Jewel and her to accompany Ellen. However, Ellen was focused on playing chess with South. The
atmosphere between the two of them was warm, and they were afraid of disturbing her even if they wanted to talk to her.
Therefore, Jewel and Gianna went to the bedroom. After entering the room. Jewel anxiously used sign language to Gianna,
“How are you? Why did I hear that you were injured?” Gianna did not tell Jewel about this incident. One reason was that Gianna
could not see her, and the other reason was that Gianna didn’t want her to be worried. “I’m fine. Look at me, I’m all good.” Jewel
used sign language, ‘I heard Alex say that it was Nicole who did it? Gianna responded and briefly explained to her, “It’s fine now.
At that time, I really thought that I was going to die.”
Jewel’s face was gloomy, “That woman is courting death!” Gianna said. “Silas has already taught her a lesson. Let’s forget about
this matter.” Jewel curled her lips. “I didn’t really like her that day in Promise Island. It was obvious that she was a pretentious
and scheming bitch!” Gianna laughed, “Well we know what kind of person she is now!” As she spoke, she pulled her to sit down.
“Oh right, didn’t you prepare a gift for your godmother?”
