Kane's eyes narrowed, and he looked quietly at Perry, who stood his ground in defiance. "Really? Then, you can tell Lady Summers to come looking for me." He pointed at Perry and said harshly, "Get out!"At that point, Perry had no choice but to leave with Ted. As soon as they got into their car, Ted began furiously pummeling the back of the seat in front of him. "I can't accept this! Dad, why is Felix so lucky? How can he be a distant relative of Lord Kane? Are we really just going to give up?" He looked at his crippled arm, feeling his rage burn.There was an icy light in Perry's eyes, and he gritted his teeth as he said, "Calm down. I'll find a chance to test the waters with Xena! If we act recklessly and Xena doesn't help us out, everything our family has worked hard for will be ruined!" The Goldwind Chamber of Commerce that Perry had established had only developed to its current scale because many prominent figures had helped him on account of Xena. They hadn't done it fo
The Lovefruit? That was one of the herbs required for treating Curtis. Felix would never refuse that. "Alright. Send me the address and the time."Finding something was purely based on luck. Expanding connections and money would only increase the chance of finding it.Kane was a good example. He was part of Dragon Alliance, and the Kinsleys could never compare with him in terms of their resources. Despite that, there had still been no news from Kane, even though a night had passed.Conversely, Felix had already indirectly gotten Bluesand from the Kinsleys, and now, they had given him news of the Lovefruit. It really was just luck.…At the Tabiner Bay sales center, Ruth was smoking outside with a woman."Ruth, thank you for introducing two clients to me." The woman's name was Sandra Todd, and she had met Ruth at a bar. The two of them had clicked immediately, and Ruth hadn't cared about the fact that Sandra was just a salesperson at a real estate company."Why are you being so f
After what happened last night, Ruth disliked Felix even more. He ruined her perfect birthday party, and she was left more terrified than ever.To make matters worse, she received a WhatsApp message from Sasha later that night, saying Felix was fine. It turned out the whole thing was a misunderstanding caused by mistaken identity, which only upset her even more.Thus, when Ruth saw that Sandra's so-called important client was none other than Felix, she couldn't help but speak harshly."Ruth, do you know him?" Sandra asked in surprise but couldn't feel happy about it. Ruth's earlier remarks didn't sound like those of a friend but rather like those of an enemy."Well, we're more than just acquaintances. Since you weren't at the party last night, I'll fill you in on the details. The real culprit is this fellow named Felix!" Ruth replied.Felix frowned. "If you don't want me to slap you in public, you'd better keep your mouth clean." He was wary of Sasha because of Warren, but it was
"Are... Are you saying that the buyer was the client I passed on to you?" Sandra asked."Yes. It's Mr. Zeller. You must join us for dinner tonight!" Alice replied.Sandra was stunned. She was overwhelmed by the thought of Felix paying 25 million dollars in full. Her eyes reddened, and she almost burst into tears.After snapping back to reality, she rushed out of the sales office and called Ruth."Sandra, what's up?" Ruth answered the call.Sandra was on the verge of a tirade. Losing over a million dollars in commission because Ruth interfered was infuriating. Alice might have appeared to be thanking her, but in reality, she had become the joke of the whole department.However, Ruth's wealthy background and her past assistance to Sandra made it impossible for Sandra to lose her temper. "Ruth, that Felix guy really bought a fully furnished villa from my colleague. He paid 25 million dollars all at once.""No way!" Ruth exclaimed.Sandra could tell from the crack in Ruth's voice j
Having bought a bunch of daily necessities from the supermarket, Felix began setting up his new villa. It wasn't too much trouble since he was living alone. He had also bought basic condiments and fresh ingredients, planning to cook something at noon.Just then, Kane showed up."Please take a seat. I'll prepare the meal," Felix said.Tears of excitement brimmed in Kane's eyes, and he felt that even if he were to die right then, he would have no regrets. He never thought he'd get to eat Felix's homemade dishes. Even the deputy leader of Dragon Alliance probably didn't get that kind of treatment.In fact, Felix had him come over because he needed to report something.When the food was served, Felix smiled and said, "Have a taste."His cooking skills were no joke. They were honed by the constant pressure from his fellow apprentices during his time at Eden Village."It's delicious! My lord, the food is superb," Kane remarked.Felix started eating, then said, "You can just call me
Felix blinked in surprise. He didn't expect that Sasha thought his purchase of the villa was linked to selling the porcelain teapot. "Well, it's up to you if you want to think that way." He was unwilling to explain or clarify, as it would likely lead to endless questioning.After the house tour, Warren was quite pleased. Suddenly, he felt a bit unwell.When Warren went to the washroom, Nattie took the opportunity to say, "The gold you gave us back then was worth at most ten million dollars. Now this villa is valued at 25 million dollars. "If I say the extra amount is interest, you probably wouldn't believe it yourself! But in any case, we are fully settled. Do you have any issues with that?"Felix was nearly convinced by Nattie's logic. She talked as if the porcelain teapot belonged to her."Fine. Whatever you say," Felix replied.Nattie then took out a printed document. "I understand you likely don't have the original IOU with you, so just sign this. Otherwise, it's just an e
As Felix turned around, he saw several security guards dragging someone toward him. The noise earlier was the person being dragged shouting."It doesn't matter who you know! Shut him up. How dare he cause a scene here? He must be out of his mind!" one of the security guards said.Felix furrowed his brows as he recognized the person being dragged. It was Sasha's cousin, Milo. That guy had been quite sarcastic toward him at Warren's birthday party. He didn't understand why Milo was calling out his name now.As Felix was about to ignore the situation and leave, Milo saw him and shouted as if he were a savior, "Felix! He's Felix! He really knows your boss!"The security guards turned their attention to Felix, and one of them promptly inquired, "Sir, do you know our boss?"Felix shook his head. "I have nothing to do with this."Although he didn't know the reason Milo was being treated that way by security, he felt the latter deserved it. After all, he was just as much a troublemaker a
Felix was well aware that Warren would never lie in his life, so it must have been Sasha who suggested it. However, it didn't matter to him. He could tolerate it as long as it wasn't too much.Besides, he had already promised Wendy he would attend the banquet. The process didn't matter as long as the outcome was right.The scale of the Kinsley family's banquet was impressive, with the venue set at Snowfall Manor near the suburbs. The luxury vehicles along the way indicated that Avesburgh's elites were all attending.As they reached the manor's entrance and got out of the car, Sasha suddenly remembered something. She glanced at Felix. "I left my bag in the car. Could you get it for me?""Why can't you get it yourself?" Felix retorted.Sasha was stunned. She never expected Felix to talk like that. He was just too obnoxious."Do you want us to stand here and argue so others can laugh at us? Or do you want me to tell my dad that you have no sense of chivalry?" she asked.Not wanting
