The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection
With Husband 651

Chapter 651

Right then, Felix could barely contain his anger anymore. Just as he was about to act, a police car zoomed past them. As he got snapped back to reality, he was reminded of the crowds milling around them.

He suddenly remembered his own and Saralı's tremendous power. If they were to fight here, they could level the entire block in seconds. That kind of destruction would definitely draw unwanted attention from Dragonia's authorities. Sarah scoffed. "I thought you were actually going to do something."

Taunted by Sarah, Felix's voice turned cold as he said, "You think it's fun playing with people's lives? What I felt for Xena was real, and you ruined everything. Do you have any idea how heartbroken she is?"

Sarah smirked. "Of course I know she's heartbroken. All my schemes would have gone to waste if she hadn't been sad. The more pain she's in, the more that heartless Curtis will blame himself. That's exactly what I've been hoping for." Sarah would clearly stop at nothing for her revenge.

"Let's settle this somewhere private if you're so tough. I'll make you regret being such a despicable old fart."

As Sarah's eyes narrowed dangerously, she seemed to have gotten angry, too. "Are you getting cocky just because you've gained some power? Even your mentor wouldn't dare speak to me that way. But fine. I'll give you your chance. "Meet me on the Eastern Mountain's peak at 10:00 pm tonight. We'll see who walks away."

With that, Sarah vanished, and Felix unclenched his fists. His exponentially, so she was sure she could kill Sarah. Tonight would be the end of her.

When Felix arrived at Xena's house, he knew better than to expect her to answer the door. Thankfully, Curtis had given him the code, so he let himself in.

"Xena!" he called out cautiously from downstairs. He did not dare to head upstairs himself. She appeared after what felt like forever. Her eyes were swollen from crying, and she looked completely drained. The sight broke his heart. "Are you deaf? I told you never to show your face here again!"

Just as Felix tried to explain, Xena placed her hand over her heart. "Listen carefully, Felix. Unless we meet by accident, I'll kill myself right in front of you if you ever come looking for me again. Do you understand?"

He knew she meant every word and that she was capable of doing so.

"Fine. I'll go." As he turned to leave, a bitter taste rose in his throat.

Back in his car, he could only call Curtis again. I'm sorry, Mr. Summers Senior. I've let you down."

Curtis seemed shocked that Xena had gone so far as to threaten suicide. He sighed and said, "Perhaps she needs time to cool off.

"Felix, Xena has had a pen pal for years. I can give you their name. You should be able to track them down with your resources."

A pen pal? Letter writing was rare in today's world, but pen pals still existed. By sharing all of their deepest thoughts through letters without ever meeting, it would create a connection that texts and emails could never replicate.

"She's been writing to this person for ten years. They've never met or looked into each other's background, but their bond runs deep. Once she's had time to process everything, it might help your chances if you could get this pen pal to put in a good word for you."

Felix was not about to pass up this opportunity. He truly loved Xena, and letting things end this way was not something a real man would do.
