Belle shot an intense glare at the newcomer, her fury palpable. "Are you done? How dare you obstruct the Phoenix Legion's operations? Capture her!"Seeing another woman appear, who was even more stunning than Yvonne—almost on par with Xena—Belle didn't recognize her and decided to make an example of her. Without saying a word, a middle-aged man stepped forward. This caught Belle's attention, and her expression changed. Immediately, she halted her order. "Stop!" She recognized the middle-aged man as a bodyguard closely associated with Ernest, named Jairo. The woman who had spoken on behalf of Felix earlier was clearly an important person. "The Phoenix Legion is quite impressive. Is your word alone enough to take someone away? I'm standing right here, and I would like to see you try!" Jairo was there to protect none other than Sherlyn, Ernest's precious granddaughter. Felix recognized her at once. "Ms. Holt, thank you so much. However, it's no problem for me to go with them,"

Sherlyn sat across from Ernest, fuming and pouting adorably. "Humph! Grandpa, you don't care about me anymore. You're not standing by my side." Ernest, relaxed in demeanor, handed her a cup of coffee. "Do I not care about you? Otherwise, would I have sent Jairo to accompany you? "You're getting more and more mischievous. After all, they're conducting an official operation. Do you think that just because I or your father is involved, they'll let you off unconditionally? What do we need laws for, then?" While she understood his point, Sherlyn was still upset. "I finally managed to come back, and I can only hang around for two days. I was looking forward to having dinner with Felix to bond with him, but the Phoenix Legion intervened. How can I be in a good mood?" Taking a sip of coffee, Ernest said, "You know Felix's situation. Everyone has a breaking point, and I suspect he's about to explode this time. The reason I had you go is to give someone a chance, but it's a shame." Ern

"Dad! Did he confess?" Outside, Sasha sat in a wheelchair with Nattie beside her, both of them looking expectantly toward the door. Of course, Belle was present, too. It was her idea to send Warren in, hoping to leverage their relationship to break Felix's psychological defenses and force him to confess, which would make everything easier."No, Sasha. Let's go home. Can we start over?" Sasha was stunned upon hearing Warren's words. Then, she immediately erupted in anger. "Excuse me? Are you even my father? Your daughter is now a disabled person, needing a wheelchair to go out, and you still have the audacity to lecture me about starting over?"Seeing Sasha's tears flowing, Nattie became furious. "Are you even a man? You can't even protect your daughter! I was blind to marry you!"Unexpectedly, Warren suddenly raised his right hand and pointed sternly at Sasha. "Do you dare say you're innocent? Sasha, look me in the eyes and tell me you did nothing wrong! We've come this far, and

Belle burst out laughing."You're already a prisoner under arrest, and you still think you can kill me? Given my status, don't you know that just saying that is already a crime?"Unfazed, Felix asked, "Since you say I'm going to be sentenced to death, can you tell me why you hate me so much?"Belle's eyes nearly turned red with rage. Crossing her arms, she said, "Why? It's simple. You're not worthy of Ms. Summers. You should have broken off the engagement and gotten lost!"However, you act so high and mighty, as if nothing can truly catch your attention. You rely only on your status as a member of Dragon Alliance and your martial prowess. "Ms. Summers is kind-hearted and doesn't want to go against her grandfather's wishes, so of course I must eliminate obstacles for her. Ms. Summers's future husband should be an outstanding man. You, on the other hand, are nothing!"With that, Belle stormed out. Felix said nothing, only concluding that she was delusional, having completely ima

"What!"Belle stared in disbelief. She thought she had misheard."You... You said the Warlord of the East is here?"Oh, my God! Why would the Warlord of the East appear out of the blue? Usually, visits like these were always announced in advance. There was no way anyone would be caught off guard like this.Moreover, Xena was attending a meeting in Yartford. Belle had never welcomed such a high-ranking figure alone, and she was nervous."Hurry up! Lead the way!" she urged.As they rushed outside, the subordinate, feeling slightly calmer, quickly said, "Ma'am, I'm sorry! I got too excited and misspoke. It's not Mr. Downy himself. It's his deputy, Lady Leia."Was it Leia Woods? It didn't calm Belle. This was no trivial matter, either. Why would someone like Leia visit without warning?Just like how she represented Xena in Yartford, Leia represented the Warlord of the East. Even if it wasn't as overwhelming as Hunter's own visit, her presence was similarly intimidating.She strode

"Then, Dr. Zeller, if you have no other agenda, shall I begin?"Felix nodded calmly."Go ahead."At that moment, Belle regained her composure. Though her voice trembled, the fact that she could form complete sentences proved her mental resilience."Lady Leia, I… I didn't know you knew Felix. I believe this whole thing was a deliberate frame-up by Sasha. It was all due to my misplaced sympathy. When Lady Summers returns, I will ask for her forgiveness."Leia's gaze sharpened, and her voice turned icy. "You are the deputy of the Phoenix Legion. You should make decisions based on evidence. How can my mere presence acquit Dr. Zeller of wrongdoings?"Belle was in a panic. She couldn't comprehend how Felix could have ties not only with Leia but seemingly even with Hunter. Even Felix's former status as a member of Dragon Alliance was far from enough for him to make such a connection.Before she could say another word, the person who had left earlier returned. He brought with him the tw

The student of the miracle doctor!Belle's eyes filled with rage when she heard Felix's words. She staggered a few steps back, suddenly understanding everything.All the previous incidents in which she thought Felix was involved now made complete sense. It also made sense now that Hunter had sent his deputy to deal with this matter."Miracle doctor! Felix is the miracle doctor's student. The person Lady Summers has tirelessly searched for... turns out to be a rural doctor we all looked down on! What a joke!" Belle laughed.She began to act weirdly, crying and laughing at the same time. She muttered to herself nonstop, causing Leia to frown.It was clear that the shock had gotten to her mind.Outside, Felix walked calmly, just in time to see Xena approaching from the side. Their eyes met for a brief moment, but neither said a word as they continued in their respective directions."Felix has been released?"A terrible foreboding swelled in Xena's chest. She quickened her steps.

"Yes. Is there a problem?"Jack's expression turned a bit strange when he heard that."Two hours ago, Warren asked to withdraw from Stellar Group's city-within-a-city project. According to the contract, he has to pay a hefty penalty fee. The amount is so large that even selling his entire company wouldn't cover it. But all Warren told me was to talk to you about it."Withdrawal? Felix sighed quietly and drank the full cup of water. He knew full well why Warren was backing out. The entire family was most likely preparing to leave Yartford for good.Although Felix said nothing, Jack continued, "This matter was too important for me to decide on my own since I'm still new to the role. So I consulted with the president. Surprisingly, she approved it. "Not only did she waive the penalty, but she also reserved the project slot for you."Having met Yvonne, Jack wasn't too surprised by the situation. At most, he was just curious."Well, it's her decision. I won't interfere."Jack nod
