Recognizing Xena's honesty, Alistair had already begun to accept his new superior. "Thank you for your concern, Lady Summers. Mr. Zeller has already found a way to treat Yara—now I just need to wait." After Alistair left, Xena turned to Felix. "You've done me a huge favor."Felix was annoyed. Xena had directly claimed him as her boyfriend without giving him a chance to explain, and she had gotten away with quite an advantage.He stepped closer to her with a mischievous look. "Oh really? How do you plan to thank me?"For some reason, Xena felt flustered. He was standing so close that his scent overwhelmed her senses, leaving her feeling strangely unsettled. She stuttered, "W-What are you doing?"Wanting to teach her a lesson, Felix suddenly grabbed the back of her head and kissed those coveted lips that many men had only dreamed of touching. The sudden contact left Xena's mind in chaos—she had never been touched by a man before, so her stunned reaction was natural. When Felix's

"Jude, what's going on?" Michelle asked. Before Jude could answer, the heavy-set woman grabbed Michelle's hair. "What's going on? He's my sugar baby. How dare you seduce him? I'll teach you a lesson, you little homewrecker!" Just as she raised her hand to strike, a voice cut through the tension. "Stop right there!" The woman turned, eyes narrowing. She mocked, "Who the hell are you? Are you trying to play hero? Ha! So this little homewrecker has some tricks up her sleeves, huh? She's not just after one man!"Felix stepped into the room, striding confidently to Michelle's side, who was still trying to process what was happening. He warned, "Watch your mouth! I suggest you leave now. I would've taught you a lesson if it weren't for Michelle's birthday!" After all, this was Karina's niece, and Felix did not treat this matter lightly. The woman scoffed. "Interesting. Do you know who I am? How dare you talk to me like that!"Tired of the drama, Felix pulled out his gift. "Mich

When a woman said something like that, it showed just how strongly she felt.Even Felix was taken aback as he reached out to touch Yvonne's face. "If I can marry you one day, I won't need anyone's approval. I hope you can understand that."As the car door opened, Yvonne said, "I belong to Lady Nala in both life and death. Even if I'm deeply in love, we cannot be together without her permission. I hope you understand that as well."At sunset, the entrance of Yardley Dining was lined with a red carpet and flanked with rows of elegant torches. The waitresses, clad in dresses, wore bright smiles and were fully prepared for the grand event. A banner that hung above the entrance read, "Welcome to Yardley Dining, Lady Summers."The restaurant was closed to the public that day, all for the sake of one guest—Xena Summers. The smile on Larry's face as he surveyed the restaurant showed how happy he was. Larry Laird, the owner of Yardley Dining, hadn't expected Felix to pull it off. On top o

Felix smiled. "I promise I'll take care of everything. Also, Xena should be arriving soon." At that moment, Larry was much more respectful than before. If anyone caused trouble for Felix, he would do everything in his power to protect him. After about ten minutes, Xena arrived. As she exited the car, fireworks were launched all around her. Furrowing her brow, she was surprised by the grand welcome. However, her expression relaxed when she spotted Felix. They both had the same principle in dealing with matters—once they made a promise, they had to follow through. Once they entered the restaurant's private room, exquisite dishes were served one after another, and Felix began to eat. "Are you not hungry?" he asked, noticing that Xena hadn't picked up her utensils. She shook her head slightly. "Since you're here, you should at least eat a little. It's polite," Felix insisted.Hesitating for a moment, Xena finally took a small bite, and the delicious food sparked her appetite

Leslie's face turned red again after hearing Felix's words. Recalling the wild moment they shared, she felt a longing to experience it once more but forced herself to suppress those urges. "Stop joking around. Didn't you say you would introduce me to an apprentice? Bring her over," Leslie instructed."Alright." After his call with Alistair, Felix was about to say something when Leslie placed a finger on his lips. "You don't need to make me any promises. I understand your situation." Felix felt moved that his fellow apprentices truly understood him. In comparison, Xena seemed to lack in that aspect. Just half an hour later, Alistair rushed in with his sister. "Yara, thank Dr. Zeller for saving your life." Having been unconscious previously, Alistair sincerely appreciated Felix's help."No need to thank me. Have my fellow apprentice take a look at her first." Nodding, Leslie approached and examined Yara. Her expression soon lit up with joy. "Yes, the constitution of her
