The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection

Looking at how proud James was, Felix couldn't help but interrupt him. "I'm listening."

James snorted and acted prouder than ever. "You're unknowledgeable and think that the Kinsley family controls Avesburgh. In actuality, there are a few hidden affluent families that truly control the ins and outs of Avesburgh. And I'm the relative of one of the affluent families. Are you afraid now?"

Felix's expression became strange. That explanation would make sense for James was so arrogant. "What a coincidence! I happen to know someone from one of the affluent families you mentioned. Since everyone's here, I should let you meet each other." Then, Felix pointed at a Porsche 911 that was nearby and made a gesture with his finger. He didn't say anything.

"Felix! Just admit that you're afraid. If you're a man, just admit it. Who are you trying to deceive?"

When Harvey had just finished shouting, the door of Porsche 911 opened. After that, a woman got out of the car and slowly walked over to them.

The woman was Dora. When Felix drove out of Tabiner Bay, he noticed that she was following him from behind. Initially, he wanted to ignore her, but who knew that James would show up?

"Another wealthy woman? Felix, I envy you. But even knowing the daughter of the Kinsley family can't help you. Wendy's appearance and demeanor are better than hers. Do you think she can save you?"

All of a sudden, James slapped Harvey on the face. Then, he pointed at the latter in fear and shouted, "How dare you talk about her like this? Beat him up!"

Although the thugs were confused, they had no choice but to punch and kick Harvey. On the other hand, James hurriedly greeted Dora. He became very humble.

"Dora, are you here to buy stuff too?"

Even though Dora looked indifferent, she raised her hand and slapped James.

"If I weren't here, how would I find out that you were using the Clarkson family's reputation to act arrogantly outside?"

Without waiting for James to respond, Dora slapped him again.

"If I hadn't come, would I have known that the man you're dealing with is the man I like?"

What? The man Dora liked? Felix? How could this be?

"Felix, are you happy with how I dealt with this? By the way, he's only a distant relative on

my mother's side. I don't know him well."

Felix couldn't believe that the family James knew was actually the Clarkson family. Before getting into the Range Rover, he said, "I won't meddle much in your family affairs." Although Felix said that, given Dora's personality, James knew he was still going to be doomed. "Dora! I'm sorry. I'm really sorry. I didn't know you and Felix knew each other."

James was already on the ground begging Dora. It was obvious that he was terrified of her.

"It's fine. You can think about it while sitting in the wheelchair for the rest of your life."

Dora tapped on James' face lightly before pointing at Harvey who was getting beaten up. "He's very rough with his words. Having a tongue in his mouth is an embarrassment to mankind."

"Yes, miss!" a voice suddenly said.

No one could see who spoke up, but Harvey and James had disappeared. It was as if they were never there. At once, the thugs ran away in a panic. None of them dared to stay behind. Meanwhile, in the grocery, Felix was pushing a cart when Dora suddenly appeared.

"You have quite the personality. I don't believe that you aren't curious about the fondue incident."
