Felix was not lying when he said that he planned on staying to accept the unique title award ceremony.
Since it was his first time ever that he won a title. But after understanding that Zoe went to such a length to get her answers, even stirring up the spectators to turn against him, he had no plans on amusing her wishes anymore.
The title, the collected GP from the bet, and even Miss. Figure's points were all going to reach him by a simple request from the Queen. He didn't need Zoe to give him any of this.
Those ceremonies were merely basic etiquette for the MCs to conclude their game on a good final note. That was all to it.
Zoe literally just shot herself in the foot by provoking Felix like this. She completely forgot that he was a jerk, who gave zero f*ck to people's wishes and opinions.
Threats and pressure never worked on people like him, they just make it worse. Alas, it was already too late for her to salvage her mistake.
