The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection
Billionaire With Husband 449

Chapter 449

Aside from George, Jack, and Vanessa, everyone else was stunned, gasping at Felix's audacity. Did he realize who he was talking to?

Especially Dylan, who was elated internally. If Felix had only provoked him, he might get a broken arm or leg. But angering Fabian meant a completely different level of consequence. Terrance reacted quickly, rushing over. "Felix! What are you saying? Quickly apologize to Mr. Fabian."

He tried to calm the situation by scolding Felix while smiling apologetically at Fabian. "Fabian, young people can be rude. Please don't mind them." Internally, he was anxious. Although he knew Felix and George were close, this was too reckless. Didn't Felix see that even George was staying silent?

Terrance had thought Luke marrying Madeline would solidify their connection with George. Now, it seemed like a massive problem was brewing instead.

Although this old classmate of his was no longer useful in providing benefits, they couldn't afford to turn him into an enemy.

While everyone had mixed expressions, Fabian signaled for Dylan to come over. To everyone's surprise, he slapped Dylan across the face.

The sharp sound echoed through the banquet hall, leaving everyone dumbstruck.

Dylan, especially, held his cheek in disbelief. He didn't understand why Fabian had suddenly hit him.

"You ungrateful fool! Apologize to Mr. Zeller immediately! What right do you have to provoke him?"

The sudden turn of events happened because Fabian was none other than Fabian Fraser, the president of Lionsfield Chamber of Commerce. He had witnessed-firsthand-Felix's connection with Dragon Alliance at Andrei's residence. How could he dare to provoke him? Although it wasn't back to its former glory since Zoey had appeared, Dragon Alliance was still far beyond what most so-called big figures could challenge. Fabian was certainly not one of them.

27. 27.

So when he saw Dylan provoke Felix, there was no way he wouldn't show his stance immediately. Otherwise, if the matter escalated further, keeping Dylan might not even be an option.

That slap might as well have landed on Terrance, who stood nearby with his mouth wide open, completely unable to comprehend what was happening.

"Dad! Why should I..." Dylan protested, but before he could finish, another slap came.

Fabian even said some harsher words, "Do you want me to disown you? Apologize!"

At this point, Dylan realized that Fabian must know Felix or was aware of his real identity. Otherwise, why would he be so terrified, going so far as to disregard his own pride in front of everyone? "I'm sorry, Felix. It was all my fault before. Please forgive me."

Felix sat there quietly. Fabian's reaction surprised him. He couldn't recall having seen this man before. Still, it didn't matter now. Madeline's engagement party was the main priority.

"Get lost, and don't let me see you again. Also, as I said, don't ever use your mouth from now on. I wasn't joking."

Fabian, relieved, quickly responded with a smile. "Thank you, Mr. Zeller. My son will be a mute from now on. Please rest assured."

After they left, Sean stood frozen. Cold sweat covered his forehead. Fortunately, he hadn't joined Dylan in causing a scene. Otherwise, he wouldn't know how he might die. It seemed Felix had an even more extraordinary background beyond just his medical skills. 1

The most astonished of all was Terrance. He never expected that even Fabian, the president of Lionsfield Chamber of Commerce, would fear Felix to such an extent. He stood close to Fabian just now, so his observation of Fabian's expression and reaction couldn't have been wrong.
