The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection
Billionaire With Husband 524

Chapter 524

"Bertha used to be slender, beautiful, and refined. But two years ago, they lost their only child in a car accident. She turned into a completely different person. Though she's alright at home, she's become a complete shrew in public.

"I'm not excusing her behavior, but I truly hope you can give Garrett a reason to keep living," Leonard explained.

Felix sighed deeply before turning around. "Alright. You've convinced me."

Seeing Felix return, Garrett broke down in tears. Knowing it was Leonard's doing, he pointed at Bertha. "Kneel and-"

Felix raised his hand. "No need. Let's go to the bedroom for your treatment.

Watching Felix's retreating back, Bertha collapsed, crying into Marcus' arms. "Marcus, I'm sorry. I know my mistake this time."

After leaving the Rothwell residence, Leonard was overwhelmed with emotion. "Felix, thank you. Seeing Garrett recover was my greatest wish."

He was once again astounded by Felix's medical skills. That rare heart condition stumped doctors worldwide, yet Felix solved it effortlessly.

"You don't have to. As you said, good deeds bring good fortune."

After declining Leonard's offer to drive him, Felix received a call from George. "Felix, are you free tonight for drinks? If not, we can meet tomorrow." George was in Canraville?

Felix smiled. "Sure."

During the treatment, he had received a message from Alistair saying Xena was back but had gone home instead of to Wolfie troops headquarters. After such an ordeal, Xena must have been low-spirited. Though Felix wanted to check on her, he thought it would be better to do so tomorrow, considering Curtis' prejudice against him.

George had chosen a bar on the sixth floor of a five-star hotel. It was clearly not a place for ordinary customers. Felix said as he sat down, "What brings you here suddenly?"

"Come on! I'm a proper businessman now. I'm done with playing around. My dad has given me lots of responsibilities, so I'm constantly traveling nationwide." Leaning forward to study him closely, Felix sined. "Okay. Just tell me what you need.

There's no need for formalities between us."

George rubbed his nose awkwardly. "I thought I was doing well hiding it, but you saw right through me. Yeah, there's something. Let's have a drink first."

After a beer, George continued, "It's my dad's birthday next week. We have nothing big y dad's birthday next week. We have nothing big planned, just family and some close friends of mine and my mom's."

Felix frowned. "You want to invite me to your dad's birthday? That seems inappropriate, doesn't it?" 1

Hesitating, George said, "I... I was wondering if you could bring someone important from Moonshadow Alliance to my dad's birthday. Of course, forget it if it's too much trouble. I know you already used up your favor with them last time." So, George wanted to borrow some influence.

Felix agreed without hesitation, "No problem."

George was overjoyed. Sincerity could really go a long way, after all.

As he raised his glass, a loud shout rang out, "Felix! It's time to settle our score!" 1
