Upon witnessing such a scene, the people in the bar fled in fright."What is the meaning of this?"Jack frowned. He didn't understand why their table was the only one that wasn't allowed to leave. Trina moved closer to him, clearly terrified."They're probably here for me. You guys should leave first."Felix stood up and walked toward the man in black as he spoke. "They have nothing to do with this. I'll stay."The man in black sneered, but he didn't try to give them a hard time. His men immediately cleared a path for them."What the hell are you saying? How can I leave at a time like this? Trina, you should go."Jack, following behind Felix, cursed before shoving Trina toward the exit.They had been close friends for years. He could not leave Felix alone in such an obviously terrible situation."Jack, I can handle this. Trust me, okay? Besides, Trina's here; her safety should be your top priority."Ignoring the look Felix was giving him, Jack forcefully pushed Trina away wit

Jack was dumbfounded. He had been in fights before, and from the aura and speed of the middle-aged man, it was clear to Jack that the man was formidable. Yet, he was easily dealt with by Felix."I underestimated you." Frowning, Dora waved her right hand, sending the other two martial artists charging forward.Alas, the outcome didn't change as both of them collapsed after being hit by Felix.At this point, Dora was utterly shocked."Interesting. I didn't think that I would meet a martial artist like you over fondue."Even though her three pillars of strength were unconscious, Dora remained completely unflustered, which piqued Felix's curiosity."Can this matter be over now?"After all, this was a mess Sasha had created, and Felix didn't want to waste more time on it.Dora didn't answer his question. She merely gave him a long look before turning to leave.Now that the bar was finally empty, Jack piped up, "Dang! Felix, you're that strong?" Tilting his head, Felix answered,

"I didn't know about the restaurant before that night," Felix answered truthfully. He was curious if there was really more to this than met the eye."Heh! Now this is getting interesting. Everyone who knows me is aware that I go to that fondue restaurant at the same time every week. If someone wanted us to clash, that would have been the perfect time."Dora was above doing things this way, but Felix's unexpected strength, along with her calmness now, made her rethink things carefully.Felix also began to consider the situation. After hearing what Dora said and recalling Sasha's reaction at the time, he did think it was a bit suspicious.At that moment, the door opened, and an old man entered after entering the residence's passcode."If you can beat him or even end the match with a draw, then we'll call it even."After speaking, Dora backed away a bit. This action showed just how extraordinary the old man's strength must be, as she was clearly afraid of getting caught up in the fi

"I'm just a little surprised," Warren said.Nattie walked over in confusion, only to see Warren hand her the invitation in his hand.She took one look and gasped sharply. "This… Isn't this an invitation to Stellar Group's partnership banquet tomorrow night?"Sasha, who had just come downstairs, rushed over excitedly."No way! It's real. Dad, how did you manage to receive this? There are so many big companies in Avesburgh that don't even qualify for an invitation, yet you got one?"Nattie became even more overjoyed."That's not all. It's said that those who get an invitation will likely become one of Stellar Group's partners for the city within a city project. Doesn't this mean our family has a chance too?"While the mother and daughter were thrilled, Warren was unable to smile."I know how I got this invitation. I just didn't expect him to pull it off."Him? Nattie was somewhat confused. "Warren, do you know someone like that?""It's Felix."Warren had mixed feelings about t

"Please elaborate," Felix said. He believed that although he had only exuded his demeanor a bit last night, given the elder's strength, the elder must have been frightened. The grudge with Dora would naturally dissipate as well."Sure, but you need to treat me to a meal."A while of silence later, Dora still didn't want to elaborate further. So, before ending the call, Felix said, "It doesn't matter to me."Felix left and arrived at Xena's house around 10:00 am. He had contacted her previously."Let's go up."After opening the door, Xena remained expressionless. At least, she was someone who kept to her word. She didn't stop Felix from visiting Curtis. For some reason, she followed him upstairs.Felix began to check on Curtis. Then, he let out a sigh of relief. The Phantom Poison didn't continue to spread. If so, once he got the last few herbs, he could start saving Curtis. Besides that, he could make sure that the latter could live for a while longer.When Felix was about to le

James wasn't someone who stood out. In school, he kept a low profile. It was unexpected for him to become wealthy. As expected, no one could predict one's fate.Since they used to be classmates, the pretense of a class reunion was the most appropriate setting. If Jack had invited James alone, there would have been a high probability that he would have been rejected as they weren't close friends in school. There would be nothing he could do about it.As time passed, their high school classmates entered one by one. Of course, all they engaged in was small talk. The people who had successful lives would take the initiative to speak up and ask about other people's work as well as questions about status and wealth.At last, James arrived. He came together with a classmate, Harvey Johnson, who was known as Gray. His hair color was gray, which was why he acquired such a nickname. When Felix saw Harvey pulling the chair for James, he guessed that Harvey was like a minion to him."Felix, wh

Upon hearing James say that, everyone understood the situation. No wonder Harvey made things difficult for Felix the moment he entered the room. It turned out they were doing it on purpose. They didn't hide the fact that they were targeting Felix at all.Jack narrowed his eyes and stared at James. "Before making Felix leave, I want to know how he has offended you."Felix was silent because he knew what Jack's temperament was."Do you remember the most beautiful woman in our class back then? She was my crush, but Felix was her boyfriend for two years. I've been holding onto this grudge for a long time."When Felix heard that answer, his expression became strange, let alone the others. Was this considered a grudge? What a joke. Just because James couldn't get the woman he wanted as his girlfriend, he didn't allow anyone to date her either? As expected, Jack chuckled because he was furious."Just because of that? It has already been so many years."However, James remained serious. "

Felix didn't have a choice, so he sent Wendy a message and had her act as his girlfriend. What did that mean? She had always wanted to be his girlfriend, and now, her dream had come true. Even though it was just an act, she was satisfied with it."Wendy, come and take a seat."It was only then that everyone else returned to their senses. Wendy was very beautiful and had a great demeanor. Who would have thought that Felix's girlfriend was such an excellent woman?"Nice to meet everyone."Wendy greeted everyone before sitting beside Felix obediently. James had gone to the restroom, and Harvey was feeling unhappy about the situation's development. He couldn't believe that Felix was still showing off. He felt that Felix was going too far to support his lie.Besides, why would such a woman like Felix? It didn't matter, though. Something great would happen soon."Felix, your girlfriend is so beautiful. Is she an actress you hired temporarily?"Without sparing Harvey a glance, Felix sa
