The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection

Chapter

15

At sunset, Felix stood near a café in Avesburgh. He waited by the roadside for someone to pick him

1. up.

He was in quite a good mood now. He was clad in white from head to toe, including a pair of snow-white shoes.

"The old man definitely did this on purpose," he muttered.

This attire was Gerald's requirement, as a distinctive mark for recognition. He strongly suspected it to be a prank Gerald was pulling on him, but he ultimately had no choice in the matter.

Since the Miracle Card was still in Avesburgh, it had to be the one he handed to the little boy. Its reputation and immeasurable value had to have made it an easy sell. It didn't take long at all for it to change hands.

As he pondered this, a Mercedes S500 pulled up to him. The driver's door swung open, and Ivan stepped out of the

car.

He scanned his surroundings and reluctantly locked eyes with Felix.

"Felix Zeller! What are you doing here!"

As per Winston's instructions, Ivan was here to pick up someone dressed entirely in white. He looked all around, but Felix seemed to be the only person fitting the description.

Felix sized Ivan up, sighing internally about how interesting things were becoming. It was clear that he was here to pick someone up. He had to admit that he hadn't expected that the Miracle Card would end up in the hands of the Cameron family. What a twist of fate! "Motherfucker! I'm speaking to you!"

Having been ignored, Ivan wasn't pleased. He wouldn't get intimidated by Felix just because he beat him up.

Once he found the time for revenge, he was confident that there were at least a thousand ways he could get back at Felix. After all, such was the difference in their status. Felix couldn't possibly fight back.
