Wendy was already nervous. Although she had feelings for Felix, she was afraid to offend him too much. Now that Hugo had suddenly appeared, she quickly stood up.. 

“Hugo, what brings you here?” 

She was rather unhappy with Hugo’s sudden intrusion. Nevertheless, he had contributed to treating Bernard. Hence, Wendy still had to show some gratitude. 

Hugo regained his composure and forced a smile. “I heard you’re dining here, so I came to have a look. Did I interrupt anything?” 

Felix understood that there was more to his words, but he remained unbothered. After all, nothing was going on between him and Wendy. Even if there was something between them, Felix wasn’t one to care about others‘ opinions.

He had sharp eyes–he could certainly detect that Hugo was after Wendy. 

“No! That’s not what I meant. I know the Lamberts aren’t as powerful as us, but I heard his grandfather has strong connections. I’ll clarify things with him and make sure he doesn’t bother you.”

giving him a way out. Otherwise… 

After finishing his meal, Felix was about to get into his car when Kane called. “Mr. Zeller, that woman called Sasha came to my clinic, mumbling about seeing you.” 

Felix had blocked Sasha’s WhatsApp and added her number to his blacklist. There was no need for putting on an act since Warren had cut ties with him. 

Who knew that Sasha was such a stubborn woman? She had even appeared at Kane’s clinic 

-she truly had some nerves.
