Garrett was momentarily stunned. He hadn''t expected Felix to revisit the topic. Just moments ago, he hadpletely given up hope
"Mr. Zeller, I''m an old man now. I hope you''ll believe my words," Garrett said earnestly.
Felix nodded, signaling for him to continue. He had his reasons for asking.
"How should I put it? Well, the reason I had so much money and business connections when I came to Dragonia was all thanks to my elder brother. He''s the chairman of Titan Holdings in Azuria, which is a true powerhouse among conglomerates. "I''m not exaggerating when I say that if he imed snow was ck, others wouldn''t dare say otherwise."
Oh? Felix''s lips curled into a faint smile. It seemed he had gambled correctly. Garrett''s elder brother held an unimaginably high status in Azuria.
"In that case, I''ll help your brother. At the same time, I''ll need his assistance with something. The details can wait until we meet," Felix said decisively.
Garrett''s face lit up with gratitude. "Thank you, Mr. Zeller! Thank you so much!"
With Felix''s miraculous medical skills, his elder brother''s lingering issues would surely be resolved as long as Felix was willing to help.
As someone who had personally benefited from it, Garrett knew just how extraordinary Felix''s abilities were. Medical challenges that stumped experts worldwide were child''s y
for him.
"Let''s start with the specifics of your brother''s situation," Felix prompted.
Felix arrived in Azuria a day early, despite the appointment for the Miracle Card being scheduled for the following day. He wanted to make preparations just in case the Elders'' Council hadid a trap. Careful nningbined with Gerald''s Speed Talisman would maximize his chances of survival.
Some might haveined, cursing their mentor for being so unreasonable. After all, who would send their apprentice into harm''s way? It simply didn''t make sense. However, Felix understood. Ged had often told him, "True strengthes from facing adversity head-on. A flower sheltered in a greenhouse will never survive sunlight." If Felix truly feared death or danger, he wouldn''t have left the mountain in the first ce.
"My elder brother, Caleb Rothwell, has three children-one son and two daughters. To be honest, he''s not rigidly traditional about passing on the family name. However, with the group growingrger and more influential, someone has to inherit it, right?
"After all, you can''t really pass it down to a son-inw''s children."

Hearing this, Felix started to piece things together. "So, your elder brother doesn''t have any grandchildren?"
Garrett let out a bitter chuckle.
"That''s right. He''s even said it feels like divine punishment. While everything in business goes smoothly, his family is gued with this issue. His daughter-inw has tried countless methods but still hasn''t been able to conceive, let alone bear a son."
If Garrett was being truthful, Caleb Rothwell would have immense resources and influence as a financial magnate in Azuria. Hence, he would have ess to the best medical care avable. For nothing to work, the problem must be highly unusual. "Forgive me for being blunt," Felix said. "I''m not very familiar with Azuria''s
conglomerates, and my only impression of them is what I''ve seen in series and movies.
"From what I''ve seen, they''re extremely ruthless and cutthroat. If your brother''s daughter-inw can''t conceive, wouldn''t she have been reced long ago?"
Garrett''s face flushed with embarrassment, evidently ashamed of the reputation his country had cultivated.
After a moment, he replied, "You''re not wrong. The reality in Azuria is far more outrageous than what''s shown in films or TV. Wealth truly has the power to shield anyone from consequences, and the rich often do whatever they please. But my elder brother is a bit different, and his son even more so. "His son isn''t the least bit indulgent or reckless. On the contrary, he''s extremely capable, loyal, and deeply in love with his current wife. No matter what, he refuses to divorce her, and my brother doesn''t dare push him too hard."
