Chapter 50

When the cat arrived at the manor, both Xena and Jordan got out, and the Kinsley family immediately greeted them, "Welcome to the banquet, Lady Summers."

Xena nodded in response. "There's no need to be so formal I heard that Mr. Kinsley Senior has fully recovered from his illness. After all, he did a lot of good deeds for Avesburgh back in the day. It's only right that I come to visit him."

As she spoke, she extended her right hand. "This is Jordan Hall, the apprentice of Wesley Cane, who ranks fifth among the top ten master healers."

The crowd was somewhat astonished. Anyone who rode with the goddess of war had to be extraordinary.

"Welcome, Mr. Hall," the crowd greeted.

y goodness! It's the goddess of war, Xena. I can't believe I'm seeing her in real life. She's so gorgeous." Sasha's face flushed with excitement. Xena was her idol, and she believed that living like Xena was the highest form of success for a woman. "She's indeed gorgeous and graceful," Nattie chimed in.

After hearing Nattie's remark, Sasha sighed. "I wonder what kind of man she'll eventually marry."

Bernard, Vincent, and even Wendy were all fully aware. Xena's move had invisibly elevated the Kinsley family's status significantly. That was a real advantage that no one could deny.

The pity was that it involved Felix. Otherwise, it would have been a golden opportunity for the Kinsley family to build a connection with Xena.

The group moved on without stopping and entered the building. After all, they couldn't leave Xena standing outside under everyone's gaze.

As they walked, a door ahead of them opened, and Felix appeared. He had come out to find a restroom because of an urgent need. Unexpectedly, he ran into the very person he least wanted to see. With their gazes already fixed on each other, he could only stride confidently toward her.

Although the corridor was quite wide, it appeared cramped because of the large entourage with Xena and several bodyguards.

One of the bodyguards gave Felix a fierce glare. Seeing that the latter continued to advance, the bodyguard immediately spoke up, "Please make way for Lady Summers."

However, Felix ignored the bodyguard entirely. He continued to walk without pausing, showing no sign of giving
