Chapter 691
If she had just seen the information on the ID card, she wouldn't have been puzzled. However, she was shocked
when she saw her picture on the card! 'What does this mean?' She signed.
'This is your new ID. From now on, you'll be Jean Louis. This is a brand-new identity. You should forget all about your
horrible past and start fresh.'
The ID that Jewel carried around then didn't have her name on it either. She had her ways of making her seem like
she was 'dead', and she knew that she could step forward to prove that she was alive after that. However, Double
Dragon Court would be alerted if she did such a thing. She didn't want to go back to them, of course. So, she
figured that she would make a fake ID just to survive. However, she still couldn't travel to places that required an ID,
so she was afraid to go anywhere at all.

'Yes.' Alex replied in sign language.
'Where is this place?' She asked again.
"Do you want to go there? I can bring you there when we're back," he offered. She didn't want to have anything
else to do with him. Yet, at the same time, she felt bad for rejecting him since she felt like she owed him a favor. So,
she responded with a simple nod.
Alex felt like he had regained his confidence at that moment. "From now on, you can always let me know if you
need anything. Although Eugene can help you out, he's a busy person, and he has to care for Olivia and North, so it
might be hard for him to handle your matters as well."
'Thank you.' Jewel responded with a nod.
Alex beamed. "It's no worries at all. I wanted to give you this ID as a gift for the new year. When I heard Eugene say
that you were here, I came over to find you. You don't need to feel pressured by anything. You're Olivia and
Eugene's friend, so you're my friend." Alex let out a sigh after finishing his words. Ugh. This is tough. I can't believe I
have to call her my friend when she's the girl of my dreams.
Jewel felt a little better after hearing the man's words. Phew. I thought he was interested in me, she thought.
"Do you have any intentions of finding a job in this new year? Or, are you planning to stay with Olivia's production
team?" he asked.
'I don't know if Olivia has any shootings after this. I'm worried about her being in the production team on her own.'
Jewel replied.
"Would you like to get a job in my company?" Alex was persistent.
Jewel smiled at this. 'What sort of job can a person like me do? Forget it. I don't want to cause you any trouble.'
"You can be my assistant," he suggested.

'How am I supposed to be your assistant when I can't even talk? Thank you for your kind intentions. Don't worry. I’ll
be able to take care of myself. Let's go.' She signed. Alex smiled at her comment. I've never doubted your ability to
care for yourself. You're a killer from Double Dragon Court, so of course you would know how to keep yourself alive.
I just wanted a reason to get closer to you, he thought. "I know you can survive even without being able to talk.
However, one of my trusty bodyguards just quit his job, and I can't find a suitable candidate in such a short time. I
heard that you have great combat skills, so I thought I'd ask you to work with me. You can decide on your own
salary."
Jewel found herself wavering. Til ask Olivia if she has any plans. If she doesn't, then I'll work for you.'
Alex hadn't started the conversation with high hopes, so his eyes lit up the moment he saw what she signed.
"Really? That's great."
She didn't know what to say after that. The group of them traveled around Promise Island for a whole week before
they decided that it was time to head home.
Before they left, Ellen hugged North tightly while kissing him. She clearly couldn't bear to see her grandson leave.
Eugene promised that he would bring Ellen back to stay with them once Lara's case had been concluded.
