Chapter 1119 Don't You Want to Be With Me

• "No, I just got out of it. What's the matter?"
• Olivia heard the door being closed on the other end, which led her to assume that he had just returned to his office. So, without hiding anything, she told him what had just happened in full detail, including what she had said when Jewel came to her studio this morning and how Alex said he never asked for a breakup when he called afterward. Finally, she added, "I can't help feeling that I shouldn't have told Jewel the truth. She's devastated."
• Eugene comforted her, saying, "It's okay. She has to know about this, anyway, and it's better for her to know this sooner than later. They have to stay together of their own volition, not because one of them gets to choose while the other can only be chosen. That would be unfair to Jewel. Now that she's learned the truth, whether or not she still wants to be with Alex is her own choice. They're both adults, so don't worry. Whatever decision they make, they're going to make it after careful consideration."
