The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection
Billionaire With Husband 589

Chapter 589

Of course, Reginald understood what George meant. He had just been too shocked. Who could have imagined Felix's godsister would have such authority over Pearly?

"Mr. Zeller, allow me to toast your godsister." He did not dare address Karina directly, so he spoke to Felix instead, who was closer to him. "Sorry, Uncle Reginald. Karina doesn't drink." Her coming here was already pushing limits. There was no way she would get up and drink.

"Of course, of course. I'll drink to show my respect then. Please enjoy yourselves."

Reginald could not care less about the refusal. He was overjoyed. Dominic thought he was so powerful, yet his "important guest" had been immediately put in her place. It served them right!

Standing there, Dominic and Victoria's expressions were dark, but they did not dare to make a sound. After all, what could they do if even Pearly had run away in disgrace?

"Karina, you can go now," Felix said.

Karina nodded. "Alright."

George's matter was essentially resolved. Knowing Karina disliked such occasions, Felix naturally took the initiative to let her leave early.

"Take care, Ms. Karina!" As Karina stood, George and Ryan hurriedly bowed again. They had witnessed true understated power today. Clearly, everyone connected to Felix was extraordinary. Who would believe that Pearly would be terrified by just his godsister? "Mr. Zeller, cheers!" After Karina left, George filled a wine glass to the brim and downed it in one go.

Felix smiled. "Is everything settled now?"

George was ecstatic. "Absolutely! If this doesn't count, then my dad truly wouldn't deserve to lead the Zimmerman family. At least Grandpa saw everything."

He could barely contain his laughter, thinking about how Dominic and Victoria would have to avoid them from now on.

Ryan sidled up to Felix. "Mr. Zeller, um... is your godsister single? Would I have a chance?"

As Felix patted Ryan's shoulder, his initial hope turned to twitching lips when Felix said, "Sure! Love is free. You've got a chance if you can survive one strike from her. But fair warning-three of the last five suitors are paralyzed, and two became vegetative." Ryan scrambled back to his seat and waved frantically. "I was just kidding! Haha! I was totally joking!"

Felix left half an hour later, with Reginald seeing him off with warmth and enthusiasm.

"Luke, stay and have some drinks with me. Your cousin Sean is coming soon." As Luke was about to leave with Felix, George held him back

"Since he insists, you should stay for drinks. I will chat with Felix a bit before heading home." Madeline blinked at Luke, who smiled bitterly. He knew his low alcohol tolerance would be his doom today.

As Felix and Madeline strolled around a park in Yartford, Madeline had never felt better. We've started a company for the pasta shop, thanks to Luke's sister's help. The direct- owned and franchise stores will open soon. Your first dividend will arrive then!" Felix did not really care about the dividends, but he could not refuse Madeline's goodwill.

"I know you've always wanted to prove yourself. Now you have! I hope you know that your success has nothing to do with me-it's all your own effort."
