Chapter 329

Felix narrowed his eyes as he studied the young man. Between the photos me hud dooms him and the fact that this stranger knew his name, he was sure this was fiden. "Jaden, I never expected we'd meet like this," Elix said.

Suddenly, Zara stepped between them, fixing Jaden with a serious look "What do you think you're doing?" she asked, sensing his murderous intent.

Jaden took a few steps forward, his gaze blazing with cold fury. "Step aside, Zara Felix must die- I was going to handle this after our lunch, but it seems fate wants him dext sooner rather than later."

"You're the one who came knocking," Feliz sneered.

Their hostility angered Zara. "Both of you, shut up! I'm standing right here, and neither of you better dare make a move!"

Jaden fell silent for some reason, and Felix also held his tongue. Felix would not have cared about Zara's intervention in the past, but now she had eamed his respect by saving Jack's life- that had to count for something Seeing the tension ease slightly, Zara spoke again. "Jaden, leave now. I'll contact you later

After throwing a few cold glares at Felix, Jaden finally got in his car and left. It was clear that Zara held significant influence over him.

Zara asked, "Felix, what's going on between you and Jaden? It seems like there's no way to fix it!"

Felix shrugged helplessly. "Honestly, I'm not entirely sure of the reason. All I know is he's tried to kill me several times. What am I supposed to do, just let him?"

Zara could tell Felix was being truthful, but it still puzzled her. After a moment's thought, she said, "I know Jaden-he's not someone who kills without reason.

"Look, Felix, would you do me a favor? Stop pursuing this conflict with Jaden, and I'll talk to him about leaving you alone. I know it's unfair to ask this of you, but I've known Jaden for over a decade, and I can't just stand by and do nothing." Only someone who knew Felix's impressive skills could understand her concerns. Even though Jaden was also skillful, someone was bound to get hurt if they fought-Zara did not want to witness that.

Felix nodded without hesitation and turned to leave, but not before warning, "Fine, I'll do this for you, and we'll call it even for saving Jack. But tell Jaden to stay away from me if he comes after me again, he's dead, and no one will be able to stop me. Chapter 329

He left, and his words hung heavy in the air. Zara watched him go, musing on his words. She thought, "Felix, I'm actually trying to save you here. You don't stand a chance with Jaden's strength and the entire Crimson Sage Sect backing him. Half an hour later, in a luxury home in Avesburgh, Zara confronted Jaden. She asked, "So, you really won't tell me why?"

She studied Jaden's unreadable expression, hoping to get a clue. Soon, Jaden sighed and gave in. "Fine. Remember the woman I told you about?"

"Yes, what about her?" Zara asked.

"She's engaged to Felix," Jaden explained. "I didn't think much of him at first, but now I've discovered he's a prodigy in traditional medicine. How can I just let that slide?"
