The Rise of a Master It Starts With Rejection novel Chapter 103

Chapter 103 

Not long after Felix returned home, the doorbell rang. To his surprise, it was Yvonne, the woman he had met at the cemetery. Felix couldn’t help but feel a bit suspicious. 

Was she following him? 

Still, he opened the door and stepped outside. 

Yvonne stood there holding a gift box, her face showing clear surprise when she saw Felix. 

“Felix? You live here?” 

Felix nodded. “Yeah. Why do you look so shocked?” 

Pointing to the villa next door, Yvonne smiled. 

“What a coincidence! I just moved to Avesburgh and needed a place to stay. A friend recommended Tabiner Bay, and I thought I should introduce myself to the neighbors. I never expected it to be you!” 

Felix laughed at the unlikely twist. “Well, now that you know it’s me, there’s no need to bring any gifts.” 

Yvonne’s genuine personality was becoming more evident to Felix, and he realized that Phillip’s support of her years ago hadn’t been shortsighted. 

“Honestly, I’m a bit envious,” Yvonne admitted with a playful smile. “You’ve got such a luxurious villa.” 

Felix was about to respond when Yvonne added, “Oh, and by the way, don’t get the wrong idea. I didn’t buy the villa next door–how could I afford something like that? 

“My company bought it, and they let me stay there temporarily. It wouldn’t look good for someone in my position to live in a regular house.” 

Felix nodded in understanding. Even though villas like theirs could easily cost over 201 million dollars, it wasn’t unheard of for companies to purchase them for high–ranking employees. 

“Felix, since we’re neighbors now, would you like to join me for lunch? I don’t have many friends here in Avesburgh, and it’s my first time cooking in the new place. It’d be nice to have some company.” 

“Sure,” Felix agreed. Given her connection with Phillip coupled with her warm demeanor, he didn’t see any reason to refuse. 

Around noon, Felix arrived at Yvonne’s villa, which had a similar layout to his own. The

only difference was the interior design, which was uniquely hers. 

“Make yourself comfortable,” Yvonne called from the kitchen. She was busy cooking, wearing an apron over a pink nightgown. 

It wasn’t hard to imagine that any man would feel lucky to be in Felix’s position right now. Yvonne’s beauty was undeniable–she was even more striking than Wendy. The soft light and homey setting only added to her allure. 

“Alright! Lunch is ready!” Yvonne announced as she brought out the last dish. She 

removed her apron, revealing a stunning lace–trimmed nightgown. From behind, it looked modest, but the front was daringly low–cut, with a lace pattern that gave a hint of what was underneath. 

Noticing Felix’s brief glance, Yvonne chuckled, seemingly unfazed. “I’m not one to care about what others think. I believe our bodies are gifts from our parents, and there’s no need to cover up too much. As long as I’m not completely naked, I’m comfortable wearing whatever I want.” 

Felix smiled and gave her a thumbs–up. “You’re definitely a free spirit.”
