Chapter 789 Stay Away from My Son
Deborah‘s legs were inexplicably weak from fear. Jewel had such a terrifying gaze! She did not dare to look at Jewel again and said in a panic, “S–sorry.”
Only then did Jewel withdraw her gaze and look at Melody.
“I‘m sorry.” Melody also apologized in a hurry. “Don‘t badmouth other people, it‘s shameful!” Jewel said unhurriedly. “OK” Melody answered vaguely. Then she held Deborah‘s hand and walked out. As she walked, she said, “Oh my god, she’s too scary.” Deborah said, “Yes, she always shows up out of nowhere like a ghost. Sometimes, I even suspect that she is a ghost. Otherwise, why is there no sound when she walks? It‘s really scary.” “Shh! Be quiet. She can hear you.” The two women held hands and hurried back to the secretariat. Jewel washed her hands and just as she came out of the bathroom, the phone in her pocket rang. She took a look and saw that it was a strange number with a tail number 6666. She could not speak because of her throat. Under normal circumstances, she would only send messages and would not pick up calls.
However, she thought for a moment and still picked up this phone. It could not be a wrong number, right?
And she was not mute!
After the call was connected, she tried to pretend to speak normally. “Hello?”
“Hello!” a middle–aged woman‘s voice came from the other side of the line. “Are you Jewel?”
“Yes, you are?” Jewel answered. The woman said, “I am Alex‘s mother. I know that it is inconvenient for you to speak. Just listen. I have a few words to tell you. I‘m at the Seven Degree restaurant below your company. You can come down when you are free. I will wait for you here!” Jewel understood and replied, “Okay.” This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
“There is no need to tell Alex. Just come down yourself.” After saying that, Thalia hung up the phone.
Jewel was suspicious. What was his mother looking for her for? And she had to hide it from Alex. However, she did not have the time to investigate. After leaving the bathroom, she did not return to the president‘s office. Instead, he went straight to the SevenDegree restaurant she mentioned. When she arrived, she was led into a private room by a waiter.
When Jewel saw Thalia, she was a little reserved. She politely greeted her, “Hi, auntie.”
Thalia sat in her original position and did not move. She raised her eyelids and looked at her without saying anything, only giving her a look to let her sit down.
Jewel was a little surprised by Thalia‘s sudden unfriendly attitude. However, she immediately felt relieved. After all, she was an elder, not to mention Alex‘s mother. She should not be picky about it for the sake of Alex. It was not easy for his mother to raise him up alone. She smiled at her kindly and sat down.
“Auntie, what do you need from me?” She tried to sound normal. However, to others, her words were unpleasant. At the very least, to Thalia, it was more repulsive than anything else

She looked at her and said coldly, “I don‘t know how you became like this. I don‘t want to know either. But since it has happened, you should be sensible. Do you think my family will let a person like you, who can‘t even talk properly, join us? I have to repeat the same words a few times. Alex arranged for you to work at the company because he thinks you are pitiful. Don‘t you think that you are useless here? I asked you to come here today for one thing. I want you to stay away from my son, the farther the better!” She spoke bluntly, her eyes filled with disgust.
