Chapter 1212

Her attitude had always been cold before, but never this cold.

Felix’s expression darkened.

“You’re not planning to go back to Eirden, are you?”

So…

Even after everything between Stella and Evan had fallen apart, the moment she heard he had been carried out of the Hogarth estate, she still panicked?

Stella paused.

Only for a second.

Then she kept walking.

She didn’t answer Felix’s question.

She simply left.

Felix didn’t follow her.

But the air around hirn grew colder by the second.

Jack came in.

“Sir.”

“Have someone keep an eye on her.”

Her.

Stella.

The moment Felix mentioned Evan being carried out of the Hogarth estate, her emotions had clearly shifted.

Before, Stella had been so determined to get away from Evan that she had even faked her own death.

Felix had thought whatever feelings she once had for him were completely gone.

But after seeing her reaction just now, he wasn’t so sure anymore.

Jack nodded.

“Yes, sir.”

Then he left.

Once Felix was alone, he lit a cigarette and took a hard drag.

When Remi walked in, she found him smoking with obvious irritation written all over his face.

“Something you had to steal was never really yours to begin with.”

Her voice was full of mockery,

Felix’s expression immediately darkened.

He looked at her, cold light flashing in his eyes.

Remi raised a brow.

“Am I wrong?”

“If you don’t want to die, get out.”

Felix had never liked Remi.

She was one of Amos’s people and had also worked under Evan.

And now she had suddenly appeared here.

Nothing about it felt like good news.

Remi didn’t leave.

Instead, she walked over and sat directly across from him.

Felix’s aura turned even colder.

Remi leaned back casually.

“Want to guess whether she’ll leave you this time?”

Felix said nothing.

His expression had already been grim.

At those words, every last trace of warmth disappeared from him.

He stared at Remi coldly.

She had claimed before that she had come here for him.

But Felix had never believed she was infatuated with him.

If anything, her sudden appearance here reeked of some larger scheme.

When he remained silent, Remi smiled.

“Did you tell Jack to find a chance to get rid of me?”

Felix’s eyes sharpened.

Remi gave a soft laugh.

“You’d better not try it. If I die, the news that Stella is still alive will reach Evan immediately.”

Felix had already wanted Remi dead.

Now, after hearing that, the danger radiating from him became almost suffocating.

Their eyes locked

Felix slowly lifted his game

“What exactly are you here for?”

“I came for you. I already told you that.

Felix let out a cold laugh.

“You really think I’d believe something that ridiculous?”

For him?

Nothing about Remi suggested that was the truth.

Remi smiled but didn’t answer.

And it was precisely that unreadable ambiguity surrounding her motives that made Felix even more reluctant to act rashly.

Remi had operated in Seaborne for years.

A woman surviving that long in a place that dangerous had to be exceptionally capable.

She had dared come all the way to the town near Sima Mountain and shatter the peace Felix thought he had secured.

Which meant she had definitely come prepared.

Stella’s health still wasn’t fully recovered.

But as the weather gradually warmed, she had started feeling somewhat better.

At least she wasn’t doing as badly as she had during the winter

Her old injuries were still the biggest problem.

Whenever the weather changed, the injured areas would start aching again.
