The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection -
Billionaire With Husband 839
Chapter 839
Chapter 839
At Damien's door stood dozens of people. They were all expressionless, and they all stared at Felix blankly. It was super creepy.
"You... What do you want?" Felix greeted them awkwardly. His nervousness showed in his
eyes.
However, no one answered him. They all stood still, staring at him intently.
Fortunately, there were sounds of footsteps, and the crowd immediately made way. An old man with a cane and a goatee slowly approached, Felix knew that this old man was well known in Seapoint. He was labeled the Great Teacher.
With the headquarters' investigations, it was easy to find the background of Damien's life. In fact, many people worked outside of Seapoint.
However, they chose Damien because he had no relatives left. After his grandmother, who depended on him, passed away, he left Seapoint to work.
Tragically, Damien himself passed away in a car accident. What was left of him had no one to remember him by-except for some neighbors and some friends.
"Mr. Docker," Felix took the initiative to greet him. The Great Teacher didn't speak but stood still in front of Felix, his nose twitching as if he was smelling something constantly.
"What are you doing?" Felix asked nervously. Although he couldn't guess what the Great Teacher was doing, he knew this moment could also determine the mission's success or failure. After more than a minute, the Great Teacher suddenly laughed. "Hahaha! Everyone, let's welcome Damien back to Seapoint!"
Immediately, the crowd seemed to shift their expressions. They all smiled and clapped excitedly.
After the Great Teacher left, a woman enthusiastically took Felix's hand.
"Damien, why are you back?"
Felix recognized this woman from the mission files.
"Don't ask, Aunt Lena. I can't make it in the outside world! You have no idea how high the living costs are in the big cities! I can't even afford a bathroom with my savings. So I thought of coming back." Lena's smile grew wider. "That's right of you to come back! Our town has changed so much! Let's go! I'll help you buy some necessities and clean up the house. Don't worry about the money. You can pay me back later!" 1/2.

Felix quickly thanked her despite his curiosity about paying her back. Sure enough, he could only know what happened in Seapoint by disguising himself.
There was no other way to go about it.
"By the way, Aunt Lena, I came back and decided to livestream. People nowadays can make a living by livestreaming. But it seems like my phone can't get a signal. What's going on?"
Felix thought this would be a difficult question to answer.
However, Lena answered without hesitation, "You came back at the wrong time! There's an issue with the signal tower. The telecommunications department said repairing it would take several days-only then can you livestream!" How could there be an issue with the signal tower? That was strange.
However, Lena said that it would take several days to repair. It just so happened that Xena. mentioned that the habits of the people who returned would change in three to five days.
"When I returned, Aunt Lena, I didn't see anyone around. Where did everyone go?" This was a question he had to ask as it was a normal human response. If he didn't ask that, there would be an issue.
"Well, everyone was out at sea! Here, look, we're at the supermarket. Let's head in and buy something. I'll wait for you outside."
What was meant to happen would definitely happen. There was no rush for these types of things.
After all, Felix felt it after entering town. There wasn't a single martial artist in the whole town,
this made it even stranger.
He bought a few large bags worth of items, and as he went to pay, the cashier refused. The cashier smiled and said, "No need to pay. You can pay me back later."
