Belle was instantly displeased by what Felix said.

"Felix Zeller! Don't push your luck. To err is human. Besides, Lady Summers came personally because of the mistakes of her subordinates. What more do you want?"

Seeing how Belle, who had someone else take the fall, was still so arrogant, Felix couldn't help but laugh out of sheer anger.

"Shut it!" Xena reprimanded before turning to Felix.

"I do owe you an apology for this. I take full responsibility for not providing proper leadership. Those involved will be handled per the law as well. Now, tell me what is your condition?"

-

Ernest was still at the base. Was Felix going to ask for him to come and remove the handcuffs himself?

If that happened, Xena's future would be completely tarnished. This matter could either worsen into a big deal or become something trivial, but releasing Felix was the best thing

to do for now.

"It's easy. In the future, when I go to visit Mr. Summers Senior, you must not stop me.

Was that it? Xena had even prepared herself to kick Belle out and endure some personal grievance. Who would have thought that Felix's condition was just a small request? This was not something hard at all. "Alright, I agree."

Once the handcuffs were removed, Felix turned to Belle.

"Could I have your deputy take me back, Lady Summers? That shouldn't be an issue, right?

Xena nodded. "Belle, take him home."

Throughout the journey, neither of them said a word. When they reached Tabiner Bay, Felix spoke just before getting out of the car.

"The moment Mr. Summers Senior wakes up will be the moment you pay the price for your foolish actions."

At the moment, Felix couldn't do anything about Belle because he knew that she was not the real mastermind behind this incident.

And because of Xena's involvement, he couldn't use force against Belle either. As such, he told her he was going to wait until Curtis was awake.

By then, regardless of whether the engagement was fulfilled, he could act freely.

Belle had a look of disdain. How could a mere martial artist speak to her that way? She found this situation laughable.

After leaving the residential area, Belle called Joshua. "Is everything settled on your side?"

"Don't worry. I've already arranged for someone to take the fall. Ms. Summers definitely won't look into it. But, is Felix really acquainted with Ernest?"

This was what Joshua was concerned about.

Ernest was a powerful figure, and if Felix was really connected to someone like him, Joshua wouldn't dare do anything to Felix anymore, even if he was the bravest man alive.

"It's just a coincidence. I forgot to tell you-Mr. Holt Senior has returned to Avesburgh to live out his days in peace, and he bought a villa right next to Felix's. Also, since Felix enjoys fishing, they've become good neighbors. "Today's events just happened to be witnessed by Mr. Holt Senior. With how much he hates bad behavior in the military, it was only natural for him to step in."

So that was how it was. Joshua breathed a sigh of relief.

"Got it. This incident caused quite a stir, so I won't need your help from here on out. I'll handle Felix myself."

After hanging up, Joshua turned to his subordinate standing nearby.

"Did you get the information?"

"Yes. However, we couldn't find anything about what happened during the three years Felix went missing. Everything else is in this file."

As Joshua looked through the information, he abruptly narrowed his eyes.

"Warren Quinton? Velocis Ventures? He sees Felix as his godson?"

He muttered to himself as his mind raced. When he saw another piece of information, he

looked shocked.

"Felix is a distant relative of Lord Kane? How credible is this?".

His subordinate quickly answered, "This is absolutely credible!"

Joshua laughed, remarking, "This is getting more interesting by the minute. So, the reason Lord Kane wanted Velocis Ventures to become one of the partners for the new city within a city project was because of Felix!"
