Felix's expression turned rather peculiar when he heard those words. He did not reproach Dora for playing both sides. Instead, he was surprised that Xena would come all the way here because of him. Had she discovered something? "I don't plan on causing trouble for anyone. After all, I'm a law-abiding citizen." Xena furrowed her brows. She stared at Felix for a long while before speaking again. "That's for the best. You know very well how unworthy you are. You think I came here because I was worried about your safety? You're wrong! If it weren't for your contribution in finding the Grimflower last time, I wouldn't care about you at all." She turned and took a few steps, then looked back. "People like you need to know their place. Living an unsatisfactory life should be the least of your worries. If you lose your life, you won't even have the chance to regret it." Felix smiled as he watched the car drive away. "It's better if you think that way." He went to the neighboring v

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Holt Senior." "Well, well. Yvonne, you're quite a beauty with great poise. And to have Felix cook such a feast for you! Seems like you two have quite a special relationship." For some reason, Yvonne seemed flustered. "You must be joking, Mr. Holt Senior. Felix and I are just friends. His grandfather helped support me in the past." After Yvonne finished explaining, Ernest sighed. "No wonder Felix has such strong values. It runs in the family." The meal went smoothly. Ernest left early, as if knowing he should give the two young people some time alone. As soon as he stepped out, he called Sherlyn. "Grandpa." "My dear granddaughter, you have competition. Though I'm not sure of her exact background, in looks and other aspects, she's only slightly behind you." Sherlyn pouted. "Humph! Don't you have confidence in your precious granddaughter, Grandpa? As long as Felix isn't married, I still have a chance. But hearing you say that, I think I need to speed u

Chapter 143
As night fell, the ballroom on the third floor of a five-star hotel in Avesburgh became the venue for the Stellar Group's business gala. Normally, a company of this caliber would host events at extremely grand locations like resorts. But no one thought that way here, as true luxury came from the company's own solid reputation. Countless people were desperate to attend but lacked the qualifications to receive an invitation. "Dad! Do... Do you think we can really get one of the partnership slots?" asked Sasha nervously. The Quinton family of three had arrived. As the future inheritor of the family business, Sasha naturally wanted their company to be as strong as possible. "I don't know." Beside them, Nattie smiled. "Of course we can. The fact that Felix got Lord Kane to arrange an invitation for us means a lot. Why else would he invite us? No matter what, Felix wouldn't dare mess with your father like that." Hearing this, Sasha's eyes lit up. "You're right, Mom. If Lord Kan

As Belle left, Felix furrowed his brows. He sensed something was off but was unable to pinpoint it. There would certainly be problems if Xena had interfered. But from what he knew of her, Xena was not petty enough to do that. That woman was just too proud and dismissive of others. She was not one to play underhanded tricks. In a room within the ballroom, Belle entered to find Joshua already seated. "Did you see Ms. Summers?" she asked. A flash of displeasure crossed Joshua's eyes. "I did, but she ignored me. It seems she's still upset about the dinner incident."Belle nodded and smiled. She said, "Don't mind it. I've told you. Many pursue Ms. Summers. You need to be patient! By the way, has your uncle arrived?" "Yes. He should be landing soon and coming straight here. Remember to pass on my message. This is our make-or-break moment." More than that, Belle looked forward to seeing Felix's shocked expression later. Afterward, Joshua would do something that would deliver a crus

Felix's face remained expressionless. But truthfully, he was caught off guard. This was something he had instructed Kane to handle. Kane must have been very confident for him to take full responsibility without involving the chief of Oasis Clinic. Yet it had somehow gone wrong. Combined with Belle's earlier words, it seemed someone had interfered. They clearly did not care about Kane's involvement. Felix took out his phone and called Kane. "Mr. Zeller." "Velocis Ventures wasn't chosen by Stellar Group as their business partner." What? On the other end, Kane felt like he had been hit by a bomb and instantly broke into a cold sweat. The consequences of this were extremely serious. If Felix thought he was being toyed with, Kane's life would definitely be in danger. "Mr. Zeller, I... I really don't know. I..." "Who did you talk to?" Felix was a reasonable person. From his interactions with Kane recently, he knew Kane was loyal to Dragon Alliance. So naturally, he would not

Felix felt truly guilty. He had meant to make amends for past wrongs but seemed to be worsening the situation instead. "Uncle Warren, I—" "Shut up. I don't want to hear your voice now or ever again. Is that clear?" With that, the Quinton family left. Felix's anger began to rise. Ignoring the stares of others, he walked toward Joshua. "Felix, what a show! If Mr. Rush hadn't been so kind, security would have thrown you out already. You're a disgrace!" Smack! Suddenly, Felix's hand struck Belle's face. Then, he turned to Joshua. "Come with me." The only sound in the hall was Felix's footsteps. Everyone else stood frozen in shock. After all, Belle was Xena's assistant. She had just been slapped in front of everyone—that was outrageous! "Felix!" Belle's enraged shout terrified the crowd, but Joshua held her back. "Calm down. Look at Xena's expression—something's off. I'll deal with Felix." Belle turned quickly, startled to see Xena's unusually cold gaze. She hurried over

Felix was quite surprised by the person who entered. Joshua turned with a scowl and was about to bark out. But he suddenly froze and quickly changed his tone. "Ms... Ms. Cooper? Why are you here?" Indeed, it was Yvonne who had arrived. From Joshua's address, Felix guessed that Yvonne had to be the president of Stellar Group. What a coincidence! "As president, am I not allowed at Stellar Group's city-within-a-city partnership gala?" Yvonne entered with a stern expression, followed by two others who appeared to be high-level executives. "Of course, I... I was just surprised. Please forgive me." After sitting down, Yvonne spoke, "Notify Warren Quinton of Velocis Ventures that Stellar Group has added another partnership slot for the city-within-a-city project. It's for his company." "Yes, ma'am!" One of the executives left immediately. Joshua had a bad feeling. "Ms. Cooper, won't the other five partner companies object to this?" Yvonne gave him a cold and disdainful look. "

"Felix! Don't celebrate too soon. Did you really think being a vice president at Stellar Group was my only backing? Hah, what a joke! "I admit that your connection to Yvonne as president was unexpected, but so what? You have no idea who my uncle is!" Felix asked with a curious face, "Oh? Then, tell me. Who's your uncle?" "Have you heard of Dragon Alliance?" Hearing those three words, Felix was able to connect all the pieces. No wonder Kane had asked Joshua for help. His uncle was also part of the Dragon Alliance. Based on that trust, Kane's mistake was understandable. "Never heard of it." This response left Joshua feeling dissatisfied. He sneered and said, "Of course not! Why would I discuss Dragon Alliance with trash like you? "It's a terrifying existence you could never imagine in your lifetime. And my uncle is a member. Forget about you—even that bitch Yvonne will have to apologize to me soon!"The door opened, and a middle-aged man entered. Joshua immediately went

What? Daniel looked at Kane in disbelief, then back at Felix. Could this man before him actually be the mysterious Dragon Lord of Dragon Alliance? Kane was furious. After receiving Felix's call, he rushed to the gala right away. He would not dare discuss such matters over the phone. He could only come and apologize to Felix in person. After finishing his sentence, Kane immediately knelt before Felix. "My lord! I have failed in my duties. Please punish me as you see fit." Suddenly, loud laughter rang out. "Lord Kane, your acting is truly impressive." Even Daniel was startled. Why was Joshua causing trouble at such a critical moment? "Uncle Daniel, you really believed that? I've checked. Felix is Lord Kane's relative and is even younger than Lord Kane. Now that you're here, Lord Kane is putting on this act to protect Felix. I must say that it's very convincing." Daniel frowned, barely containing his anger. "Kane, is he your relative? Did you think I'm an idiot and could be

"This matter ends here." Felix left after saying that. Only then did Daniel let out a long breath and slump to the ground. The reason why he killed Joshua without hesitation was simply to save himself. Otherwise, his own chances of death were also high as he faced the Dragon Lord. After all, Joshua was not his son. "Kane, you nearly got me killed this time." Daniel shot a resentful glance at Kane. He could not help but feel angry. Kane gave a bitter smile in response. "Daniel, what could I do? How could I dare reveal the Dragon Lord's identity without his permission? The key issue is that you spoiled Joshua too much. He didn't even respect me as the deputy chief of Oasis Clinic! "The Dragon Lord was truly generous. When I informed him about Joshua, he said Joshua was free to pursue her, despite his prenuptial agreement with Xena. But Joshua shouldn't have interfered with the Velocis Ventures matter." Daniel was left speechless. Indeed, if he had known Felix's true identity,
