The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection

Chapter

89

The goddess of war, Xena Summers?

Kane was even more confused. What did Xena have to do with this?

"My nephew will be coming to Avesburgh in a few days. His goal is to marry Xena," Daniel explained.

Kane furrowed his brows. This seemed like a personal matter. How did it involve Dragon Alliance? "Mr. Rush, forgive me for speaking frankly, but I still don't understand."

Daniel stood up, as if he already expected Kane's reaction. "I came here just to notify you, as you have the most widespread influence in Avesburgh! My nephew also wants to join Dragon Alliance, but he lacks the necessary qualifications. "However, everything will fall into place once he marries Xena. At that point, Dragon Alliance will rise to a new level with the goddess of war on our side. I'm sure you understand the implications."

Daniel turned to Kane. "If my nephew needs help, you wouldn't refuse to lend a hand, would you?"

Kane smiled and said, "Of course not. This is a small matter."

However, he kept his true thoughts to himself. If it were in the past, Xena might have indeed been useful. Outwardly, Dragon Alliance might seem united, but they were secretly fragmented on the inside. However, it was just a matter of time before Dragon Alliance would be reunited now that the Dragon Lord had returned. There was no use for Xena at this point.

Early the next morning, Sasha appeared with Ruth at the mall almost as soon as it opened.

"It's unbelievable! He's so despicable! I already humbled myself so much, yet Felix still treated me like that!" Sasha fumed.

Standing beside Sasha, Ruth also had a look of disbelief on her face. Who would have thought that an utterly worthless man like Felix actually had a powerful relative like Kane?

It seemed that Felix's talk of villas and his being an acquaintance of Wendy wasn't just bragging, after all.

"Don't be discouraged, Sasha. I can't speak for other things, but if you end up with Felix, you'll never have to worry about food or clothing at the very least. You'll be able to do as you please in Avesburgh.". Chapter 89

Of course, Sasha knew this all too well. Otherwise, why would she have humbled herself so much before Felix? "Well, I have a feeling that things won't go so smoothly."

At that moment, Ruth received a call. She said goodbye and left in a hurry, leaving Sasha alone. She entered a Guci store. There was no better way to vent her negative emotions than shopping until she dropped. "How much is this bag?"

"Miss, this bag is a new arrival to the store. It is priced at 550 grand."

550 grand? Sasha's face fell. Although her family was well-off, she wasn't at the level where she could afford such an expensive bag.

Suddenly, a voice spoke up, "Wrap up all these bags. I'm giving them to this young lady."

The store clerk saw who it was and immediately spoke respectfully, "Yes, Mr. Glover. Please wait a moment!"

Sasha turned around and saw Ted. "Mr. Glover, I... I need to leave," she stammered.

It was all because of Ted that she was nearly sexually assaulted. Although she hated him with all her heart, she didn't dare to offend him. "Don't go, Sasha. Consider these bags as an apology for what happened last time. I had no

⚫ idea that things would almost go that way.

For her? Sash was stunned. The total value of those bags was at least five million dollars. How could a woman not be tempted? 1

Ted said, "I know you're trying to pursue Felix, but is he even paying attention to you? I can pay you three million dollars upfront. Once the job is done, I'll give you another ten million dollars!

"All

you

need to do is help me lure Felix out again. Besides the money, I'll also arrange for your father's company to join the Goldwind Chamber of Commerce.

"Once that happens, you don't need to rely on Felix anymore. Your family will still become one of the most influential families in Avesburgh!" Chapter 90
