Chapter 596

Athena didn’t expect Ferris to feel grateful to Xander. However, the felt that the least Ferris could do was not bite the hand that fed him.
He was exploiting Xander’s feelings for her, making Xander do his dirty work.
Athena turned to Jessa and asked urgently, “is there any way you

Jessa shook her head. “Both th
