The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection -
Billionaire With Husband 775
Chapter 775
Felix almost turned around out of pure instinct. Who wouldn't react when someone called the name they had their whole life? Fortunately, Felix recognized that this was Aiden's voice, so he held back. His strong willpower allowed him to control his impulses and resume his movements, at least on the surface, without any signs of hesitation.
"Did
you see Felix somewhere, Aiden?" Asher asked in confusion.
Aiden shook his head with a smile. "I must've been mistaken."
This time, the meeting place was actually the same auction hall they had been to before. Felix was still feeling a little uneasy after sitting down.
After his strength improved, his wariness toward Aiden began to decrease. However, this time, it instantly shot back up to an even more exaggerated level.
Calling Felix's name to test his reaction meant Aiden believed this "middle-aged man" was Felix somehow. Although he wasn't fully certain, the situation was terrifying enough. Soon, everyone gathered. Felix saw Craig from the headquarters, Magnus from Medic's Haven, and Lemuel, whom he had met once.
"Mr. Grimwald, long time no see," Lemuel greeted him with a smile.
Lemuel and Magnus clearly knew each other as they immediately greeted each other.
"Ha, you're always so elusive!" Magnus chuckled. "Who knew we'd meet again like this?"
Only Craig looked a little out of place, and there was a glint of awkwardness in his eyes.
In terms of status, he was the highest ranked. Despite being the chief medical officer of the headquarters, Magnus and Lemuel still disregarded a respected figure like him.
In their eyes, the true measure of a doctor was their skills, not their rank.
Craig turned to glance at Felix. He felt a little better to see him. At least he wasn't the lowest ranked, and he regained some confidence.
"Welcome, master healers. The guild master is occupied with important matters and can't leave. So he had asked me to apologize on his behalf," Wayne greeted them as he entered with Ross.
Wayne's words were sincere. Despite Skyward Guild's status, they still respected all the doctors present.
The three renowned doctors merely nodded slightly, which could be considered somewhat an acknowledgment.
"Now, let's not waste time! Please come up on stage!"

Chapter 775
When all the doctors were on stage, a bed was pushed out. An elderly man was lying on the bed. On the surface, he appeared to be unharmed
Everyone present was a powerful martial artist. As the bed drew closer, they could hear the familiar thumping sound of a heartbeat.
Felix immediately recognized that this was the patient's heartbeat. It was so strong and powerful that it echoed in the hall. The man's strength was evident and clearly formidable.
"Doctors, please begin," Ross said, bowing slightly with a gaze full of expectations. The patient was lucky to have someone like him as a friend.
The next moment, Craig grew visibly uncomfortable. He wanted to go forward to feel the pulse, but he noticed that not only Lemuel and Magnus stood there unmoving, but also Felix. If he went forward to feel the pulse, wouldn't he be instantly at a disadvantage? Although the situation seemed strange, Ross was actually thrilled.
These were indeed renowned doctors who could diagnose someone by just observing them. Ross knew his friend's condition well. Even someone as skilled as Silas had missed it, with the problem revealing itself only after he felt the patient's pulse. Just this one action showed the true caliber of these doctors.
"Dane Livingston?" Craig's voice cut through the silence as his expression changed.
When he saw Magnus and Lemuel frown, he quickly explained, "You may not be aware, gentlemen, but If I'm not mistaken, this is a wanted criminal-the number four of the Thirteen Aces! Dane Livingston!"
However, Felix had already recognized the elderly man. The documents Luna had given him contained information about these people.
This was Dane Livingston, who ranked fourth among the Thirteen Aces. The picture he was given matched the elderly man on the bed.
