The Rise of a Master It Starts With Rejection novel Chapter 25

Chapter 25 

Wendy’s expression became odd on the other end of the line. This was her first time being asked to do something like this. “How would you guys like me to prove myself?” 

She didn’t know what else to say. In fact, she found the whole thing outrageous. How was she going to prove she was herself? 

In the next second, Sasha burst into laughter. “You really are the most shameless person I’ve ever met, Felix! You were worried we would ask you about this as soon as you got back, so you found an actress to put this show on with you, didn’t you?”

Nattie’s expression became uglier. “You’ve really bought yourself a one–way ticket to hell now. I have to kick you out today!” 

Just then, Warren appeared. 

Felix immediately hung up because he knew he could finally go to sleep. There was no need to continue arguing with Nattie and Sasha. Even though he’d already decided not to expose anything before Sasha, sometimes, he just had no choice but to do so. 

“Why are you guys just standing there?” Warren asked. He seemed to be in quite a good mood, and the faint scent of alcohol on him made it clear he’d had a few drinks before coming home. 

“Nothing. Dad, I’ll run you a bath,” Sasha said. 

However, Nattie had made up her mind. “Warren, Felix has been going around and tricking people out there! He told Sasha’s friend that he knows Wendy Kinsley, the daughter of Avesburgh’s richest man. If he keeps this up, he’s going to get us in trouble!” 

The people in affluent families cared deeply about their reputations, so how could they sit by and allow Felix to go around smearing their reputations like that? It wasn’t too late for them to salvage the situation now. Otherwise, they would be doomed once Felix made an irreversible mistake! 

Warren frowned at that. “And here I thought you were talking about something serious. Felix is capable and outstanding–isn’t it normal for him to know Wendy Kinsley? I don’t know what you’re clamoring about. I’ve had enough of this. It’s time for bed.” 

After that, he threw an arm around Felix’s shoulder and smiled. “I’ve never celebrated my birthday since your parents passed away, but I’m happy now that you’re back. I’m going to celebrate my birthday tomorrow night, and you have to be present. Don’t bring anything, you hear me?” 

Felix felt’a little guilty that he’d forgotten it was Warren’s birthday the next day. He remembered how Warren would always bring his family to the Zeller residence to celebrate his birthday. That was how things had always been until Felix’s parents passed away. 

“Alright. I’ll be there,” Felix said. Since he was attending a birthday celebration, he needed to think of a gift. 

Around 10:00 am the following day, Felix appeared at Avesburgh’s antiques market because he knew Warren liked antiques. If he wanted to give Warren a gift, he had to pick something the latter liked. t 

He knew nothing about antiques but could sense energy because of his practice. Setting aside whether something was animate or inanimate, everything in the world, whether humans, animals, plants, or items, had its own energy. 

Felix could sense the intensity of the energy to determine how long the object had been around. He supposed it
