The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection
Billionaire With Husband 444

Chapter 444

Around 11:00 pm in a park near the Serenity Manor, Felix was strolling by the lakeside with Sherlyn.

"Felix, thank you for dancing with me today. I was really happy."

Now dressed in jeans and a white T-shirt, Sherlyn had a completely different style.

"There's no need to thank me."

At that moment, Sherlyn stopped walking and looked at Felix. "I know you don't have romantic feelings for me, but I can wait. After all, I never planned on getting married soon anyway."

Felix sighed. Being fancied by women was sometimes a burden. Each refusal felt like adding another heartbroken person to the city, and that was the last thing he wanted.

Just as he was about to speak, Sherlyn tiptoed and kissed him lightly on the lips, like a dragonfly skimming the water.

"Remember. I'll be waiting for you.

Felix shook his head as he watched her run off, at a loss for words.

In another part of the villa, Isaac was sitting across from Ernest. "Dad, according to you, it possible that Felix won't accept Sherlyn?"

Ernest's eyes widened. "Did you mishear me? I said he definitely won't accept her, not that it's possible."

Isaac slammed his hand on the table and stood up. "He wouldn't dare!"

"Sit down! Trying to show off your power in front of me?"

Startled, Isaac quickly sat back down, grumbling with frustration. "Sherlyn is exceptional. Why would Felix refuse her?"

Ernest's expression changed several times. Isaac was indeed a general, but emotionally, he lacked depth.

"We live in a different era now. Things are about mutual consent! Felix is no ordinary man, so we shouldn't meddle too much. Understand?"

With that, Isaac didn't dare say more, or he would surely be scolded.

"Any news on Lemuel yet?"

Isaac shook his head.

"No! We've sent many people to look for him, but there's still no news. We don't know how long he can hold on.

Lemuel Morris, the top-ranked master healer in Dragonia, was even regarded by Silas as superior, with a huge gap between them. There were even rumors that Lemuel might become the next miracle doctor.

"Honestly, Dad, I can't understand what kind of grudge could be so deep that, even with his life at stake, he wouldn't use the Miracle Card to save himself."

Ernest shook his head. "I don't know, either. He won't say, but if he'd rather die than see the miracle doctor, it must be complicated. It's a pity that this illness started now. If Felix still had his skills, there would be a chance." Meanwhile, Felix was leaving the park, planning to nap for a couple of hours before heading to Yardley Dining to refine the Dragonspine technique.

Suddenly, a sound caught his attention.

Looking carefully, he saw a figure slowly approaching, holding a cane.

"Felix."

"She knows my name?" Felix frowned.

""Who are you?"

The figure stepped into the light. She was an ordinary-looking elderly woman. "It's been years since someone dared to kill two of my servants. Are you ready to die?" It was Madam Spring!

Felix's scalp tingled, and he shouted, "Averill! Come out now."

It was no joke. From what Averill had said, Madam Spring's strength was terrifying. Felix wasn't sure if he could defeat her even at his peak, let alone now.

A chilling smile appeared on Madam Spring's face as she slowly lifted her cane. "There's no one else around here, so why put on an act? It's time for you to die!"
