Chapter 633
Felix's expression darkened as he looked at the three young men, their faces filled with contempt."Is this how the Ruby family treats their guests?"Reid, the so-called fourth brother, spoke again, his tone still arrogant, "How we treat guests in the Ruby family is none of your business. If you've got the skills, prove it and make us step aside willingly instead of running your mouth."Felix sneered and turned to Rosalyn. "Your fourth brother, is it? Either he apologizes to me, or I leave right now. Did he think just any Tom, Dick, or Harry has the right to question me?"Rosalyn panicked. She hadn't expected things to escalate like this. "Mr. Zeller, please wait!"But Felix's remark completely enraged Reid."Hah! Talking big on the Ruby family's turf? You want an apology? Fine! I'll give you a chance. Apologize to me now, or you won't make it out of this house."No elder had stepped in so far, which clearly indicated that these three had been given permission to act as they ple

Rosalyn hesitated briefly before continuing to argue her case. "Of course he's the real deal! Dr. Cane's diagnosis perfectly matched Mr. Zeller's. What more proof do you need? Even Dr. Cane admitted he couldn't treat me. Why don't you believe me?"It was clear that Richard was aware of Reid's actions. This realization left Rosalyn deeply disappointed."Enough! Can't you see your Augustus' car has arrived? Step aside!"Rosalyn nearly burst into tears. She had always felt unappreciated by Richard, but it was blatantly obvious that day.Just because she was a woman and unqualified to inherit the patriarch's position, does that make being doted on by Rowan a crime?Not far away, Reid sneered. "What a fool! Complaining to Dad? Whether Felix is real or fake, no one can treat your illness now that he has left. If you die, Grandfather's affection for you will fade over time."At that moment, a Rolls-Royce pulled up, and Augustus stepped out with Axel. Richard immediately went to greet

"Greetings, Mr. Ruby Senior!"It wasn't until those words were spoken that the Ruby family members came back to their senses and greeted Rowan. No one had expected him to appear in such a dramatic way.They understood the reasoning behind his actions, though. After all, if even Augustus could openly apologize to Felix, it was clear that Felix held an extraordinary status. Whether or not the Ruby family feared him was secondary, but they certainly didn't want to create a mysterious and powerful enemy unnecessarily."I've seen enough of the Ruby family's hospitality. It's not necessary to keep this up," Felix said coldly.He sneered inwardly. Rowan clearly knew exactly what was happening. While he might not have orchestrated the events in the hall, there was no way he was unaware of them. If not for the Crayden family's appearance, this situation wouldn't have unfolded like this.A dull thud echoed as Reid was about to apologize. He then rolled his eyes and collapsed to the floor.

Though Rowan and Richard were conversing telepathically, the elder still shook his head."Yes. There's no information on it. The so-called enhancement effects were discovered through generations of personal trials by our ancestors. Who would have thought it would result in this situation with Rosalyn? "But perhaps it's for the best. If this continued, wouldn't it have led to endless problems down the line?The bone was a family heirloom. So, they naturally treated it with great care. That was why they had invited Wesley to confirm its properties and set up multiple safeguards to prevent Felix from potentially claiming it under the guise of treatment.The key lay in Felix's intentions. If he wasn't trying to deceive them and the bone truly was responsible for Rosalyn's condition, then it had to be dealt with. Otherwise, who knew how many future descendants would suffer because of it?An heirloom it might be, but its true worth depended on whether it brought benefit or harm.…Tw

"Grandfather! You must go. It's Mason Jacobs!"Rosalyn was frantic. The current most famous figure among the Eight Great Martial Families was undoubtedly Mason of the Jacobs family.The Ruby family had been pushed to the second spot because of him. And just yesterday, news spread that Mason had broken through to Innate Realm and entered Aetherial Realm.Considering his age and rapid advancement, his achievements were truly unprecedented and unmatched."What nonsense! He's just a junior. Do you think I need to get involved? It's merely a traffic accident. Go back inside."Despite his dismissive words, Rosalyn acted decisively. "I have to go. Felix was riding in our family's car. Mason isn't blind. There's no way I'm letting Felix get dragged into this mess because of him."…Meanwhile, at an intersection not far from Ruby Manor, Felix had already stepped out of the car. It was, in fact, a simple traffic accident, with clear fault on the other party.Felix's car had been turning

Half an hour later, Felix arrived at a nearby upscale mall.Malls like this were abundant in Aleshire, but he had specifically chosen this one because he had learned in advance about a shop selling high-quality, locally made scarves. Since he was picking out a gift, he wanted something with a regional flair. A luxury handbag, while expensive, lacked creativity—it could be bought anywhere as long as one had the money.While waiting for the elevator, a sudden scream startled everyone."Ah! Where did this little beggar come from? My dress!"Everyone turned to see a distressed woman glaring at her dress. Nearby stood a six-year-old girl. Her clothes were tattered and dirty, and her face was smudged with grime."Miss, don't you recognize me?"The little girl reached out toward the woman again. Furious, the woman recoiled, clearly unwilling to let her pristine white dress accumulate more smudges. She raised her hand and slapped the child. "Get lost! Where's security?"Felix interv

Felix extended his perception for a while but found no suspicious movements or individuals. He had no choice but to give up. Perhaps, as the two bystanders had mentioned, this notorious thief had already moved on to another location.Given that this mall had already been hit, it was likely the thief had left.Still, Felix couldn't shake one big question. Why did they target phones? For someone capable of stealing from someone as skilled as himself, they could undoubtedly pull off far bigger heists. Why did they go through the trouble for something so minor?Unable to make sense of it, Felix decided not to dwell further. He headed to the top floor and immediately spotted the scarf shop he had come for. However, the sign at the entrance stood out more than anything else."Members only. Non-members, please do not enter".That one sentence alone showcased the shop's trust and exclusivity. Inside, the store was much larger than it appeared from the outside, with over a dozen sales coun

"Hah! What a disgrace to men. I can't imagine what Nancy was thinking, getting involved with trash like you," Ronald sneered.Bertha felt vindicated, knowing she would soon have her revenge. Ronald Sullivan wasn't just anyone—he was a second-generation elite in Aleshire who was wealthy and well-connected. On top of that, she had shared a bed with him a few times, giving her some leverage in their relationship."Mr. Sullivan is one of our highest-tier Platinum members. He could slap dozens of people like you to death with a single hand."Ronald's sudden appearance was unexpected, but Felix had no interest in wasting his time on this group of clowns. There were plenty of scarf shops in Aleshire—this one wasn't unique."If I want to leave, who can stop me?"Ronald stepped aside, but his two bodyguards moved in to block Felix. Just as they reached for him, their bodies trembled simultaneously, and they stepped back, backing away."Useless!" Ronald snapped, his face darkening. These
