Jack nced at Felix with a smirk and teased jokingly, "What else can I do? You made my rtionship with the general manager hit rock bottom. I might have to run away now."


    Vanessa was speechless. She knew Felix was extraordinary, and only Jack would dare speak to him this way.


    "Don''t forget Maddy''s engagement party the day after tomorrow. She asked me to remind you,"


    "I promised her, so I''ll definitely be there,"


    Refining the Dragonspine was a top priority, but attending an event in Yartford wouldn''t be a problem, either. If he wentte at 4:00 am, began the training, and returned the next day, nothing would be dyed,


    After going to the restroom, Felix came back to find Jack suddenly pulling Vanessa to her feet.


    "Sorry, Felix. We''ve got to go. Something came up."


    Felix was puzzled. "Do you need my help?"


    They had nned to have drinks, so them leaving abruptly made Felix concerned.


    "There''s nothing you can do. We''re leaving!"


    Vanessa looked helpless and, with her straightforward nature, blurted out, "Don''t worry, Felix. This guy is just impatient. While you were in the restroom, I mentioned I bought a few pairs of ck stockings this afternoon, and now, he can''t wait any longer." What? Felix was stunned.


    Jack looked embarrassed as he hurried out with Vanessa. He wasn''t joking. There was no dying a moment when his girlfriend wanted to wear seductive things.


    Looking at the three opened beer bottles in front of him, Felix stayed for a while longer and was about to leave when suddenly, a dozen or so people stormed in. They were carrying weapons and looked like some underground thugs. Their target, was unmistakably Felix, as they quickly surrounded him.


    "Do you need something?"


    A figure emerged from the crowd. It was Dn, looking smug.


    "Have you figured out what''s happening? You thought you were pretty tough this afternoon, huh? Try kicking me again if you dare."


    Despite being in an unfamiliar city, Dn''s family connections allowed him to call for help

    with just a phone call. If it weren''t for Wendy potentially holding him back, he would havee to Canraville with bodyguards and never taken that hit.


    "I don''t want to argue with you. Get lost."


    Since losing his martial skills, Felix had started to adopt a more rxed attitude in many situations.


    "You dare tell me to get lost? Beat him up!" Dn ordered.


    Just as the group moved in, a bottle shattered on the floor, and three men stepped forward to stand beside Felix''s table.


    "Is someone like you going to mess with Felix, who''s respected by even Mr. Luis?"


    The leader quickly whispered into Dn''s ear, "Dn, they''re under Mr. Luis, a boss of the underground group. What should we do?"


    Hearing this, Dn realized he was outmatched and clenched his teeth in frustration. "Looks like I underestimated you. But you can only win in Canraville. I''ll show you my power soon enough, and you''ll beg on your knees!" Just as Dn was leaving the bar, he got a call from his father, ordering him to return to Yartford immediately.


    "Dad, can Ie back tomorrow night? I''m still..."


    "Shut up!"


    The call ended abruptly. Dn cast a final nce at Felix, who was calmly drinking his beer in the bar. His eyes gleamed with a cold light.


    Damn it! He''d let Felix live a few more days, but he''d make sure toe for thetter personally. Just wait.


    Coincidentally, Felix''s phone rang, too. It was Alistair, and his words took Felix by surprise. "Mr. Zeller, Sonny is willing to talk, but he has one condition-you must be present."
