Felix chuckled. "You don't need to tell me. Whatever story Lady Nala and I share, I don't want to know."

As if anticipating his response, Yvonne placed her hand on his thigh. "This is my mission, so please don't make it difficult. What you do after hearing it is your choice."

When Felix remained silent, Yvonne continued, "The parents who passed away weren't your biological parents. Your true bloodline comes from the Greene family of Yartford- one of the most powerful families in Dragonia.

"I know, but in my heart, I only acknowledge those two as my parents," Felix replied firmly.

Yvonne frowned, not expecting this response. The Greene family made a marriage contract with Lady Nala's family years ago. Though no specific names were mentioned, according to the agreement, you and Lady Nala are the intended couple." Felix laughed bitterly. This explained Nala's interest-like Xena, she was bound by a

"Well, I'm honored! But given Lady Nala's status and position, she probably just wanted to check on her potential spouse. She couldn't have any other intentions," Felix said.

Yvonne nodded slightly. "That was true before, but things are different now. I've never seen someone reject her twice, yet she seems more interested than ever."

"No need. And don't bring it up again," Felix stated firmly.

When they reached Yvonne's place in Canraville, just as she was about to open the car door, she suddenly grabbed Felix's arm.

"Felix, would you do it for me? If you gain Lady Nala's approval... I'll be yours too!"
