"Dr. Zeller, you can decide on how to deal with him. He brought this upon himself!" Wesley didn't even want to know the details of what happened.
If he didn't make his stance clear right now, he himself would get in trouble once Gerald turned up.
"Confine him for five years and ban him from stepping out into the world!" Felix left after saying that, leaving Jordan with a bitter smile on his face.
The same words Felix had spoken earlier in the morning at the Traditional Medicine Association echoed in Jordan's mind. He hadn't expected Felix's words to come true so quickly, nor did he have a chance to resist.
"Mr. Cane, I'm sorry," Jordan said.
Wesley patiently listened to Jordan's explanation. Then, he sighed and shook his head. "In the end, it's all because of a woman's charms! Luckily, Felix isn't a ruthless man. If he really wanted to kill you, I wouldn't have been able to protect you, either." What else could Jordan do? He felt nothing but a sense of relief.
"Mr. Cane, should I tell Xena about this?"
"Who would have thought that the soon-to-be fiancé whom Xena never took seriously
would turn out to be the miracle doctor's apprentice, the man whom she had been desperately searching for?
With his identity alone, it was no longer a question of whether Felix was unworthy of Xena. The tables were completely turned in this situation.
"Don't do that. How she interacts with others is her business. If you meddle, it could lead to worse consequences. Do you really want to rekindle this feud?" Wesley's words woke Jordan up. Indeed, Felix must have had his reasons for not revealing his identity. Meddling would only make things worse for himself. When Felix returned home, his phone rang. The call was from Belle. Although he hadn't saved the number, he recognized it at first sight. "What's the matter?" "Felix, Lady Summers is inviting you to lunch tomorrow. The location is at... Don't be late!"
Felix frowned, feeling annoyed. "If you're inviting someone to a meal, you should at least. be cordial. Are you ordering me around?"
Clearly, Belle was also displeased. "Know your place! You just happened to get lucky and help Lady Summers by accident. You should be grateful she's inviting you to a meal. How +25 BONUS

dare you spout such disrespectful words?"
Felix let out a cold laugh. "I don't need it.
With that, he hung up.
It was utterly ridiculous. Did they think they were entitled to supreme honor because they were ordained by the heavens? Who were they trying to impress by acting so high and mighty? Meanwhile, Kane had just returned to the courtyard from running errands. Upon entering the main hall, he saw a middle-aged man sitting in his wooden armchair.
"Kane, long time no see," the man said.
Kane's expression shifted as he took a closer look at that man. "At your service, Mr. Rush. I'm Kane Guerra, deputy chief of Oasis Clinic."
The man before him was none other than Daniel Rush. He was the chief of Lawson Clinic, which was a member of Dragon Alliance.
Lawson Clinic was considered one of the top five most powerful entities within Dragon Alliance, far superior to Oasis Clinic. Even the chief of Oasis Clinic would have to greet Daniel with respect. "Take a seat. There's no need to be so formal."
Kane's eyes were filled with curiosity as he took a seat. "What brings you here, Mr. Rush? It has been over three years since we last met!"
Daniel nodded and smiled slightly. His appearance was quite fearsome. Even if he was smiling, his menacing look would likely scare a child into wetting their pants.
"It's been three years, indeed. I'm here this time for something important. If I am successful, it will have a profound impact on the future of Dragon Alliance," Daniel said.
Oh? Kane raised an eyebrow. He now realized the gravity of the matter,
"Yes," Daniel said. "It's about the goddess of war, Xena Summers."
