"Oh?" Felix chuckled.


    After dealing with Inferno n, yet another person was targeting him through an assassin organization-probably someone without much sense. The irony was that ir had been created by Averill, making this whole setup a perfect case of amb to the ughter. "Who made the order?" he asked.


    "A man named Pierce Langden. He''s from Canraville."


    Felix raised his hand. "I know who he is. I''ll handle this myself."


    Seven nodded, waiting patiently for Felix''s main instructions.


    "It''s about the Thirteen Aces, which are Dragonia''s S-rank wanted criminals. Find me the twelfth one, Sonny Ba, code-named ''Circle of Hearts.'' Track him down for me."


    With its intelligencework, ir''s assassin organization was well-equipped to find targets better than most other organizations.


    "Yes, sir."


    The thought of falling for their trap still bothered Felix immensely. He continued, "You''re connected with Shado overseas, aren''t you?"


    Seven nodded. "Yes, Mr. Zeller. Do you need something from them?"


    "Inform Shado that I''m offering a bounty for Sonny''s trail. The reward will be ten


    billion dors."


    Seven drew in a sharp breath.


    Even when converted to Shado''s local currency, ten billion dors would still rank among the top bounties in their history and would send the entire organization into a frenzy. Felix''s determination to hunt down Sonny was clear. "Alright, sir. I''ll make the arrangements."


    Money didn''t matter to Felix, but Sonny''s trap was something he needed to undo. Otherwise, he''d carry a reputation of being cowardly forever.


    When he returned to the private room, he found Wendy sitting thoughtfully, brows


    furrowed.


    "What''s bothering you?" Felix asked.


    Wendy gave him a slight, bitter smile. "Nothing major. An important client''s son ising to Canraville. My father called, asking me to host him personally."


    Felix sat down and teased, "So he''s that eager to get to know you?"


    After a moment, Wendy nodded. "Yeah. He takes every opportunity to drop hints. But because of Moonshadow Alliance, he hasn''t dared to do


    anything outright. It''s annoying,


    but his family is crucial to our business, so I can''t just brush him off."


    Taking a few more bites, Felix encouraged her, "That''s business for you. You''ll get used to handling all sorts of people over time."


    After they finished eating, Wendy left, driving off from the underground parking lot.


    Felix had nned to walk back since he hadn''t driven to the restaurant, but as soon as he stepped outside, he received a message. It was another matter that needed his attention. Just as he left the restaurant, he heard someone call out, "Hey,e here, young man!" Felix assumed it wasn''t directed at him and continued walking.


    However, the voice called out again, more directly this time, "Felix, are you deaf?"


    He stopped and turned around, spotting a young, heavy-set woman sitting on the trunk of a Rolls-Royce Cullinan, swinging her legs as she watched him. She seemed younger than him but was indeed quiterge. "Do I know you?" Felix asked.


    The woman scoffed. "You obviously don''t have the right to know me. I''m Aimee Reynolds, a cousin of Xena. My dad is her second uncle. Got that?"


    Xena''s second uncle? First, Xena''s family. Now this. Were they all nning to confront him one by one?


    "Listen up, Felix! You''re not good enough for my cousin, so stop pestering her, or you''ll have problems."


    Felix, unwilling to waste his time, dismissed her with a simple response as he resumed walking. "Xena and I have nothing to do with each other anymore, so don''te looking for me." With a satisfied grin, Aimee gave a thumbs-up.


    Perfect! She had onlye to confirm that he had moved on. Since that was the case, she could rest easy.


    Felix had barely walked a short distance before getting into arge Lexus SUV, followed closely by a convoy of five more cars.
