Of course, Reginald understood what George meant. He had just been too shocked. Who could have imagined Felix's godsister would have such authority over Pearly? "Mr. Zeller, allow me to toast your godsister." He did not dare address Karina directly, so he spoke to Felix instead, who was closer to him. "Sorry, Uncle Reginald. Karina doesn't drink." Her coming here was already pushing limits. There was no way she would get up and drink. "Of course, of course. I'll drink to show my respect then. Please enjoy yourselves." Reginald could not care less about the refusal. He was overjoyed. Dominic thought he was so powerful, yet his "important guest" had been immediately put in her place. It served them right! Standing there, Dominic and Victoria's expressions were dark, but they did not dare to make a sound. After all, what could they do if even Pearly had run away in disgrace? "Karina, you can go now," Felix said.Karina nodded. "Alright." George's matter was essentially res
Madeline smiled without saying anything. Forget her marriage to Luke. She knew well that even the pasta business would not have been this smooth without Felix's help. Starting a business meant dealing with countless officials and stakeholders. Only Luke's sister's connections made it so easy. And those conveniences did not fall from the sky—they came through Felix. "Maddy, you should go. I'll head to the airport myself," Felix said.Felix's sudden words seemed odd to Madeline until she spotted someone approaching aggressively. "Okay. I'm planning to visit Canraville in a few days. We'll meet up with Jack then." Almost as soon as Madeline left, Asher stood before Felix with cold eyes. "Come with me!" Despite the commanding tone, Felix remained calm. "Are we that close?" Asher tried to grab him. It was impressive that he had reached the Ultimate Mortal Realm at such a young age, but he was no match for Felix. When Asher's arm was caught, his whole body became immobilized. "
Xena came home to find a table full of food that night. Puzzled, she turned to Alice Gunner, their housekeeper. "Are we having company tonight?" Alice said with a smile, "I'm not sure. Mr. Summers Senior just asked me to prepare all this food." Her grandfather did? Xena figured Curtis must be expecting friends over since nothing else made sense. "You're home, Xena. Wash up and join me for a drink." As Curtis walked down the stairs, he beamed like a teenager in love. Xena stared at him, dumbfounded. "What's got you in such high spirits, Grandpa?" "Let's discuss it over dinner." While Xena poured them both some wine, her curiosity burned. "Can you tell me now?" As it turned out, this feast was not for guests. He was just in a great mood. "My greatest burden has finally been lifted. Isn't that worth celebrating?" Xena did not even know he had any burdens. "Will you tell me about it?" Curtis nodded. His eyes were filled with nostalgia and memories. "Long ago, I hurt som
"Yes. Let's start dating after you come back from Medic's Haven," Xena said.Felix stood there stunned for a long moment before asking, "Are you serious? What about your grandfather?" "He's given us his blessing and said he won't interfere anymore. I'm not sure exactly what changed his mind, but he's approved." Felix could barely contain his excitement. His feelings for Xena were genuine. And now that he had a chance to cure Madam Spring's poison without dying in the process, everything seemed perfect. Without thinking, he swept Xena up in his arms and spun her around. She did not resist his actions either. After dedicating so many years to her career and reaching the pinnacle as the Phoenix Warlord, perhaps it was also time to find happiness in love. There was nowhere higher to climb professionally, so why not have it all? …Later, Felix met up with Edmund. They then flew to a remote city where a car awaited them at the airport. "Is it your first time visiting Medic's Ha
The man approaching was none other than Ethan. "Hah, looks like Medic's Haven hasn't been standing still these past years." Felix smiled. The poison he had used was not particularly sophisticated, but it was not something just anyone could detect and neutralize either. "Are you admitting that you've poisoned me then?" As Ethan walked closer, his smile vanished. He never would have imagined that someone could poison him without detection. After all, he was considered a rising star at Medic's Haven. If he hadn't happened to deliver something to a Supreme Elder, he would be dead by now. Instead of answering, Felix turned to Edmund, who had not said a word since they arrived. "So bringing me here to 'resolve things' was just a cover for my execution, wasn't it?" Edmund sighed. "Felix, I'm sorry, but my hands are tied. Poisoning a member of Medic's Haven is an act of war against our entire organization. If Lady Summers hadn't become involved, we would have taken you by force inste
Felix kept buying snacks along the way since he really was hungry. Meanwhile, Ethan had to trail behind like a servant as he grudgingly paid for everything. When they reached a grand hall, Felix did not need to guess what it was. Ethan's excited expression said it all. This was where the leader of Medic's Haven was. "Want to bet you'll be the one dying today instead? Just wait and see," Felix challenged.Ethan scoffed at this absurd claim and followed Felix inside with a cold smile. The hall was lined with two rows of wooden armchairs, all occupied by elders. Edmund took the only empty seat. At the head of the room sat a middle-aged man. That was probably Jasper Blackthorn himself. "Mr. Blackthorn! This is Felix Zeller, the scum who attacked me in front of the law enforcement team and poisoned me in secret!" After his outburst, Ethan fell silent. He knew better than to speak out of turn before Jasper and the elders. While Jasper studied Felix silently, an elderly man slapped
Ethan's expression kept shifting. Jasper had always been known for his swift decisions, so why was he dragging out Felix's judgment like this? Pocketing his phone, Felix shook his head slightly. "Let me ask you something. What proof do you have that I poisoned Ethan? And have you even investigated his actions?" While Jasper remained expressionless, Henrik sneered and said, "Medic's Haven's reputation speaks for itself. Ethan is my disciple, and his character is impeccable. He's always stayed true to our mission of healing. What's there to investigate? "As for the poisoning, you must have done it if he says so! After all, he's a trustworthy man." Felix laughed. "Incredible. So this is what Medic's Haven has become? If the founder of Medic's Haven knew, he'd be rolling in his grave!" Instantly, murderous intent filled the hall. Every elder jumped to their feet in rage. They would have torn Felix to pieces right there if Jasper had not held his silence. Even Edmund frowned dee
Finally, they had reached the heart of the matter. Magnus was their most senior Supreme Elder, and no one knew his exact age. He never appeared even at Medic's Haven's grandest ceremonies. How could he possibly show up for some unknown person like Felix? It would be a joke if they entertained everyone who claimed to know Magnus. Would Magnus possibly show up and verify each claim personally every time? Ethan remained unconcerned. He knew Jasper's caution stemmed from that incident five years ago and Felix's connection to Xena. But none of that mattered now since Felix would surely die. Less than ten minutes later, Jasper returned. This time, he stood near Felix instead of taking his seat. "Welcome, Mr. Grimwald!" All the elders hurriedly stood, their faces shocked. Impossible! Magnus had actually come? "Welcome, Mr. Grimwald!" Whatever their thoughts were, they had to show proper respect to Magnus. As someone coughed, Felix heard an elderly voice. "I want to see the youngs
