The Deadly Assassin Robin by Tristan Storm

Chapter 903 The Aldridges' Most Distinguished Friend

Dmitri Powell, captain of the Cattells' guards, joined by Trix and Zayden, made their way swiftly toward the rear garden of the estate.

Meanwhile, Mateo, with four guards at his side, moved toward the front entrance to greet Felix and his entourage.

This was a first for him, as he had never witnessed such a high-profile visit since his arrival at Qacalisle Island.

Even back in Ugonland, Felix had never made an appearance. No warning or rumors had preceded his arrival, leaving Mateo baffled by the unexpected visit.

To make matters even more extraordinary, Luella, the only heir to the Aldridge family, had arrived with the Aldridges' elite staff and top-tier guards, giving the impression that the Aldridges' headquarters had moved to Qacalisle Island.

This display of power was on par with the most influential nations, showcasing a level of prestige that few could rival.

Among the guests were renowned experts, former heads of state, and retired generals-individuals who had once held great power in their respective countries. Their presence, along with that of Felix and Luella, suggested they were preparing for an important event, perhaps even the Qacalisle Summit Meeting.

Yet, that seemed highly improbable. Felix had never shown interest in global politics or the affairs of nations.

The Aldridges' core survival principle was to avoid direct involvement with the social rules of the mundane world. This principle was also the key to their ability to remain detached from society and grow into a uniquely formidable force over the years.

They stood proudly above the rest of the world, a solitary and unrivaled power. So powerful, in fact, that no superpower or organization dared to provoke them lightly.

Mateo was at a loss. He couldn't grasp why Felix was here.

As Holden had mentioned earlier, Felix had arrived at the Cattell estate but refused to enter the main hall, opting to wait outside the gates for someone-someone he referred to as his "most distinguished friend." This was a concept Mateo had never encountered.

In this world, no individual could truly qualify as a "distinguished friend" in Felix's eyes.
