Wendy finally understood what Xander was referring to at that time. The big shot he had said needed help for her grandfather was none other than the war goddess, Xena Summers.

"Lady Summers, please don't misunderstand. I have no intention of keeping any help from you. However, I genuinely dare not proceed without permission from the master healer. I'm sure you know from Dr. Fielding what his temper is like." No interaction under this sky wasn't driven by interests. Xena didn't expect Wendy to explain herself so readily without excessive prodding.

"Just say the word, and I'll be at the Kinsley family's disposal from here on out."

Wendy was shocked to the core. Such a promise was priceless beyond words.

Standing before her was the first goddess of war in Dragonia who possessed supreme power. With her on their side, her family would definitely soar to great heights.

Yet, as soon as she thought of Felix, a pang of guilt surged within her again.

"I'm so sorry, Lady Summers. This is not a matter of personal gains. Had it been anything else, I wouldn't hesitate to exhaust my resources for you. How about this? I'll ask the master healer himself. If he agrees, I'll pass you his contact information." Her intuition warned her not to offend Felix. Though it was by virtue of the Miracle Card, he had saved her grandfather, after all. Disseminating means of access would be akin to ingratitude.

With that said, Xena couldn't really force it any further.

"Alright. Thank you."

In all honesty, she, as the goddess of war, had countless means to get in touch with the young master healer. It wouldn't be difficult for her to access Wendy's call records or hire people to tail her. Unfortunately, doing so would likely turn out counterproductive and cause her to lose Wendy's support. In addition, she would be risking the respect of the temperamental master healer. She had no choice but to be patient.

Meanwhile, Felix was once again in Sasha's car. After all, Warren had repeatedly reminded them yesterday to attend the barbeque party together.

"Felix Zeller, listen up! If you start acting all self-centered and bragging at my friends' place, don't blame me for turning against you!"

Sasha's expression was beyond grim. The incident at Concord Bank had thoroughly sickened her. If Felix acted that way in front of her friends, where was she supposed to hide her face?

"I'm not bragging. You just haven't put in the effort to find out the truth."

Felix didn't think it necessary to go out of his way to uphold a front or offer an explanation to anyone. His actions would depend on how others acted first.

He scoffed.
