Chapter Billionaire With Husband 184
Chapter 184
"How about this-I'll sleep with you for a night, and you let my brother go?" Dora offered.
Sam's jaw dropped open. He felt once more just how terrifying Felix must be for Dora to offer up her body to him like this. Most importantly, he could see the anxiety and desperation in her eyes. He didn't know what to think anymore.
"Jack Graham is a manager from this company. He's a good friend of mine. The Clarksons have a lot of resources to go around, right? It shouldn't be a problem for you to collaborate with them on something, right?" Felix asked while handing Dora a business card. Was that all? Dora took the business card from Felix's hand and blinked at him in
confusion.
"Are you sure you really don't want to punish me hard in bed for what my brother did to you?"
Felix was rendered speechless. He was too lazy to reply to her, so he just waved her off.
It wasn't until Sam had left the premises and gotten into Dora's car that he finally dared to speak up. "Dora, how did you and Mr. Zeller get to know each other? Why are you treating him like this?"
A hard smack landed at the back of Sam's head as Dora yelled at him. "Didn't I tell you to stop being so cocky and learn to read the room? Why must you always land yourself into sticky situations like these?
"I don't know what else Mr. Zeller is hiding from me. Did you really think I'd offer myself up if he only had his martial arts skills?
"I'm bringing you back home now and putting you under the protection of all the other martial arts masters within the family. Killing you would be as easy as crushing an ant for him!"
Sam didn't dare to speak anymore. He was extremely grateful then that he had let Warren and Sasha go earlier. Otherwise, he wouldn't even have had a second chance.
After Felix was done eating his barbecued meat skewers, he returned to Tabiner Bay. As for Kane's manor-if Kane really were to ascend the ranks and be the next chief, he would be a lot busier running around Dragonia.
If that time came, Kane would have to give up his manor. Luckily, Felix decided to take over the place. It would be a convenient place for him to settle things whenever he was th
Plus, back at Tabiner Bay, both Yvonne and Ernest were his neighbors on either side of his villa. They would want to lay as low as possible.

Felix didn't drive straight into the garage. Instead, he stopped the car at the entrance to the yard because Xena was there. He didn't know how long she had been waiting for him there. "What's the matter?" he asked.
"I hope you'll tell me the truth. Tell me, what is this action you're doing in the video?"
Xena didn't bother beating around the bush and took out her iPad. Then, she tapped on the screen to play the security camera footage from the hotel.
In the video, Xena had dragged Felix out of the elevator. However, just before the doors closed behind him, Felix's wrist suddenly trembled.
The movement was so quick that the video speed had to be slowed down many times before it could be seen.
"Well, you suddenly acted that way with me and called me 'honey'. I was so taken aback that I trembled for a bit. Is that a crime now?"
Felix knew that Xena would be able to find the needle on Santhor. Of course, he had to deny it. He didn't want to be invited to the Phoenix Legion base again.
Xena held Felix's gaze for a long time. She was sure Felix had something to do with the needle she found. There simply weren't any other suspects.
"It doesn't matter whether you or someone else did it. You'll be cooperating with Phoenix Legion to provide us with useful information. It's not a crime. You'll even get commended for it. I don't know why you're so apprehensive about this. "I won't move if you won't tell me," Xena informed him.
Xena knew that Felix was a martial artist. She had also checked all the angles of every security camera footage from the hotel. The only person who could have lodged the silver needle in Santhor was Felix. It couldn't possibly be anyone else. Even Xena didn't know why she was so stubborn about proving herself right this time. Was it because she had learned that Felix was part of Dragon Alliance and was starting to fantasize about him?
Felix was amused. A teasing look appeared on his face as he looked elsewhere. "Sure. Do you dare to spend a night with me? I'll tell you the truth if you do."
Just as he was feeling smug about it, Xena answered without hesitation, "I do!"
