The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection
Billionaire With Husband 823

Chapter 823

When Felix arrived at the clinic, he saw a teenage girl sitting nervously while Melissa tried talking with her.

The girl was simply dressed and seemed incredibly shy.

"I'm Felix Zeller. Are you looking for ine?" he asked curiously. He had never seen this girl before and was even more confused about who her sister might be.

When she heard his name, the girl shot to her feet, flustered. "Hello, Felix."

Felix tried to appear as kind and approachable as possible. "Don't be nervous. What's your sister's name? How does she know me?"

The girl seemed to struggle with her words and finally pulled out her phone to play a video. 'Hello, future brother-in-law. Tammy is an acquaintance. If she's ever in trouble, please lend her a hand. I'm not around anymore."

Cynthia? Felix was speechless. He had never expected that the sister Tammy referred to would be Cynthia.

"I do know Cynthia. Tell the what's wrong, and I'll help you." It didn't matter to Felix where Cynthia was from. Sh

had helped him and was very kind. Calling him her "brother-in-law" only made him more determined to help.

Nearby, Nala sighed. Cynthia's sister was her biggest rival. Due to her investigation into Felix's mother, Nala didn't have the resources to figure out who Cynthia's sister was.

Tammy started crying. "Felix, my home is about to be taken away. Those bad people want to kick us out! My grandma and I rely on each other, and if we're evicted, we'll have to live on the streets. Grandma is weak! She won't make it!" Upon seeing Tammy so heartbroken, Melissa was furious. "How dare they! What kind of heartless scum would evict an old woman and a young girl?"

Felix signaled Melissa to stay calm and gently patted Tammy on the shoulder. "Let's go. I'll go to your house and take care of the rest."

From Tammy's description, it sounded like a classic case of eviction. Before leaving, Felix called Gray City's richest man, Jeremiah, asking him to send someone over. They were better at handling these things.

Tammy's home was in a rundown neighborhood with crumbling streets and shabby surroundings. Her apartment was small, and the furniture was rusty. It was clear their living conditions were far from ideal.

Felix couldn't understand it. If Cynthia had left behind a video, why hadn't she also left money to improve this family's life? Or did her people not have access to modern currency?

As soon as they entered, they heard coughing inside the house. Tammy rushed in, saying, Grandma, let me get your medicine."

Felix followed her into the room and saw an elderly woman struggling to sit on the bed. "And you are?"

"Oh, Grandma, this is..." Tammy hesitated.

Felix quickly stepped inside. "Hello, my name is Felix Zeller. I'm Tammy's teacher. The school learned about your family's situation and sent me to visit."

Since Tammy was still in high school, Felix figured posing as her teacher would put the elderly woman at ease.

Sure enough, the old woman immediately welcomed him in. "Mr. Zeller! Please make yourself at home. I'll be out in a moment. Tammy, pour your teacher some tea.

While helping the old woman stand, Felix applied acupuncture to treat her. When she reached the living room, her coughing had stopped, and she looked much better. +25 BO
