Chapter 1022

"Madam Goddard, these are your favorite foods," Nellie said softly.

Deborah's lips moved slightly. "I don't have an appetite. Take it away."

Setting the food down, Nellie walked over to her. Using telepathy, she told her, "You'll definitely eat today because I just got a call. It was from Felix. He used someone else's phone to call me."

What? Deborah sat bolt upright, her gaze sharp and piercing. "What did you just say?"

Nellie was startled by her reaction.

"I wouldn't dare lie to you, especially not about Felix. I'm not sure how he escaped from Echo Cavern, but he's alive. That much is certain, and I've already confirmed it. It was definitely him."

At that, Deborah grabbed both of Nellie's arms tightly. "When... When is he coming back?"

"Felix said he needs to handle something very important while pretending to be dead. Once it's done, he'll come back to see you. He asked me to tell you but also to keep it a secret. Don't let anyone else know."
