"Are you saying he shouldn't have acked by. Figgle to see my grandfather?" Xena questioned
Frightened, Belle quickly waved her hands. "Nano! Milady, you know that's not what t meant "
"Sometimes it's better to say lees. Regardless of everything else, Felix did a good thing this time," Xena childed.
The more Xena spoke, the more uncomfortable Belle felt. "Milady, Felbe must have ulterior motives. He's going to such lengths to save Mr Summers Senior because of that prenuptial agreement. When he wakes up, you'll surely do whatever he says." Even Xeba was at a loss for words, especially since Belle's reasoning seemed sound. "It doesn't matter now. I just hope Grandpa will be alright. We'll deal with the rest later."
Xena's response had actually shown her changing attitude toward Felix. She was no longer as aggressive and unyielding as before, though she had not realized it herself.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, in Xena's home, Seth slowly stood up. "Since you've already consulted Xander and Wesley, my answer is the same as theirs. I'm afraid I can't help your grandfather's condition."
Despite preparing herself for this, Xena could not help but feel disappointed.
"Dr. Fingle, is the miracle doctor really the only one who can cure him?" Belle asked.
Seth glanced at Belle, then looked at Xena. "Don't worry too much. Sometimes, it's all up to fate, and what you're desperately searching for might be right in front of you!"
Seth was puzzled that Xena did not know about Felix's medical skills. But as an outsider, he felt it was not his place to reveal it. He could only offer them this subtle hint. After Seth left, Belle pondered his words. "Right in front of you? What's that old guy talking about? Milady, did you understand?"
Xena shook her head. "No, it's probably just his way of comforting me.
Just then, a car pulled up, and someone unexpected stepped out.
"Mr. Davidson? What brings you here?" The visitor was Olly Davidson from the Great Imperial Sect. As the sect leader's disciple, Xena naturally knew who he was. "Xena, let's talk inside," Olly said.
Belle sensed the situation and did not follow them in. As Xena's assistant, she knew Xena

came from the Great Imperial Sect, so this could have been sect-related business. It would not be appropriate for Belle to be there.
In the living room, Xena poured Olly some water and asked curiously, "Mr. Davidson, has something serious happened?"
Olly nodded. "Jayden is dead."
Xena was shocked. Jayden Harrod was one of Olly's disciples, so Xena knew who he was. How could he be dead?
"You're coming to me, so I assume Jayden didn't die of natural causes. Do you want me to investigate?"
"Yes. Jayden's body was found on an abandoned hill outside Avesburgh. He left saying he had information about a rare herb called snakefruit. You know he was obsessed with traditional medicine. I never stopped him as long as it didn't interfere with his martial arts training. I never thought..." Snakefruit? Xena had never heard of it, as she was completely ignorant about traditional medicine.
"Your investigation will be much easier than if our sect did it. I'll give you a lead. Snakefruit has a unique scent. Anyone who's been near it will carry that smell for three days. So you have just over a day left. I hope this helps," Olly said.
