Rosalie glanced at Chase and opened the contract. She read it very carefully, but her expression changed when she got to the end."Mr. Garfield, are you sure that this is the right contract?" she asked coldly."That's right, it's the contract. Hurry up and sign it so that you don't get yourself in trouble. I don't mind telling you that the Garfields are already being very generous by offering you eight million for the acquisition of Arctic Snow Group," Chase said, blowing out a smoke ring. Sebastian took the contract and glanced through it, then tossed it onto the table."Did you get your head kicked by a donkey, my friend? You want to acquire Arctic Snow Group with just eight million?" Sebastian sneered as he sat down opposite Chase."If you hadn't developed a new anti-cancer drug, your company wouldn't even be worth eight million. To tell you the truth, I wouldn't pay you a single penny if it weren't for the sake of Mr. Griffin Senior." Chase's eyes roved greedily over Rosalie'
Chase was yelling angrily. "I'll give you 100 million to acquire all the assets of the Garfields. Would you agree?" Sebastian said, smiling coldly."What did you say? Say it again if you dare!" Chase glared icily at Sebastian as he spoke in a sinister tone."What's the matter? Are you going to take it by force since you failed to trick us out of it?" Sebastian sneered.Chase was startled. He glanced at Rosalie, then at Sebastian, and there was a flash of menace in his eyes.He had collected information on Arctic Snow Group, but what he had gathered was that it was just a small company that had just been established.Rosalie had lost the protection of the Griffins, and she was also the most beautiful woman in the Griffin family.Chase had been planning to force Rosalie to sign the contract and then use some despicable means to win Rosalie over and make her his.It was only when he got to Sartvale that he found out that Rosalie was fooling around with someone called Sebastian.
Chase looked timidly at Sebastian and clutched at his swollen face. He dared not say a single word."What's the matter? Can't you hear me?" Sebastian's expression turned icy at once."No, noâĶ I-I'm listening." Chase was close to tears. Sebastian was being so mean!"As long as you can hear me, say something. I'll give you 100 million to acquire the Garfields' fortune. Do you accept the offer?" Sebastian asked, sneering."IâĶ I don'tâĶ" Chase held his face and looked fearfully at Sebastian."What? You don't accept it?" Sebastian said, raising his hand once more. Chase hastily changed his mind and said, "No, no! I accept, I accept!"Although he was cursing Sebastian a thousand times over, he didn't know what to do. If he went against Sebastian, all he got was a slap.Chase had never been slapped so hard before, and he was now completely dazed. There were tears in his eyes, and he looked like an aggrieved child."Since you accept, what are you still standing there for? Call your fa
"Why are you crying? I'm asking you something! Have you done what I told you to or not?" Jonathan asked sternly."DadâĶ IâĶ" Chase seemed grief-stricken. He wasn't even sure if he would survive, but Jonathan was just asking him about how his errand had gone. Was Jonathan really his father?"What's wrong with you? Didn't I tell you to go and look for Jace if you come across any difficulties? Ryan will be alright too. Aren't you and Ryan childhood friends?"He continued, "Arctic Snow Group's mask and anti-cancer prescription are both going to do very well in the future market. We have to get them no matter what!" As Chase didn't say anything, Sebastian took out two silver needles and waved them in front of him.When Chase saw the silver needles Sebastian was holding, he felt as if his soul had left him in fright. He yelled into the phone urgently, "Dad, why don't we let Sebastian and Rosalie acquire our family fortune for 100 million? That way, you'll be able to retire early and enjo
Chase was genuinely in great pain. He felt as if every cell in his body was transmitting pain signals to his brain."What will I have to do to make you let my son go?" Jonathan finally relented. He only had one son, and he felt like his heart was breaking as he listened to Chase yelling in pain."Tell your son to get out of Steinberg immediately. Otherwise, you may never see him again." Sebastian grinned and said, "The human tolerance for extreme pain is only five minutes. I wonder how long your son will be able to endure it.""How dare you threaten me?" Jonathan's voice was a menacing growl.Sebastian took out another silver needle and stuck it into another pain acupuncture point on Chase's body.There were six pain acupuncture points on the human body, and if all of them were pricked with silver needles, even someone with great willpower would die from the pain within just one minute.Jonathan was beside himself when he heard Chase howling in pain. "ChaseâĶ" "He'll die from th
Sebastian was no longer the man who used to avoid conflict. Too many things had changed recently, and it had made him realize something.There were some people who would take a mile if you gave them an inch. They would treat kindness as a reason to act recklessly!Rosalie nodded slightly and smiled as she said, "By the way, Grandpa called yesterday and asked me to attend a business gathering in Sunway as a representative of the Griffins. Can you come with me to buy an evening gown?"Sebastian had no choice but to assent when he saw Rosalie's pleading look. On the way, he had to stop by the sanatorium to mix up some medicinal potions for Wyatt and his old comrades, so Rosalie and Sebastian didn't go straight to Sunway. Instead, they both went to a mall in Steinberg.The mall was one of the most important properties in Steinberg that belonged to the Coltranes, and Callum had focused most of his energies on that mall.After it was renovated, they had also brought in several interna
"Why should I?" Rosalie smiled at the woman, remaining perfectly calm. "Because my name is Melissa Stallone, and I want that gown," the woman said arrogantly.When she said her name, she looked contemptuously at them."You're a Sunway Stallone?" Sebastian frowned and looked at Melissa again.Harold had once mentioned some gossip about Sunway's upper class to Sebastian. The Stallones were well known because the younger generation of their family were movers and shakers.However, those who were often mentioned were Jayden and his younger brother, Micah Stallone. There was also the aforementioned Hugh Jones, as well as Chad Murdoch. Chad was the son of Andrew Murdoch, known to be the richest man. There was also Xavier Walker, who was known for being the most talented man.As for Micah, he was known in Sunway for his talent in business. He was young, but he had already been in business for some time, and he had a wide circle of friends. He was showing potential to take charge of h
"Stop right there! I want that gown! Give it to me!" Melissa dared not make trouble for Sebastian, so she turned and shouted at the sales assistant instead. "I'm very sorry, miss. This gentleman and lady saw it first," the sales assistant said very politely.The sales assistant didn't care who Melissa was. There was an order for everything, and Rosalie clearly suited the gown much more than Melissa did.There were only 50 of these gowns in the entire world. Letting Melissa wear it would be a disgrace to Carmen's piece."Them? They're a couple of losers. Can he afford it?" Melissa pointed at Sebastian.Sebastian frowned slightly. Melissa was much too arrogant. Did she think the Stallones were the only family with money in the world? Did she think that they were the richest people in the world?Sebastian pulled out his bank card from his pocket. It contained the profit dividends from the Arctic Snow Mask over the past few months, as well as the consultation fees he had received.
Sebastian nodded slightly. Yorrick had probably killed the young man because the latter was proficient in mystic spells and was already on the brink of the threshold. That could be the only reason for Yorrick's senseless deedThere were some people who couldn't bear seeing people who were stronger than them, which was why they made their move before their opponent could grow and develop."Are you really going to concede three moves to me, old man?" Sebastian stepped forward, grinning."Of course!" Yorrick answered, staring arrogantly at him.He still hadn't seen anything out of the ordinary with Sebastian, so he assumed that Sebastian was just an ordinary guy. He had probably only been able to defeat so many expertsâincluding Egbertâbecause he had used some kind of trick. Egbert had lost because he had fallen into Sebastian's trap, not because of the latter's skills. That was why Egbert ended up suffering from the backlash of the ghost he had nurtured and lost his powers."I'll
"Young man, you're so cruel. Have you ever thought of the consequences of your actions?" Yorrick asked. He put his hands behind his back as he walked slowly toward Sebastian. Sebastian eyed Yorrick, whose training was at least on the same level as Egbert's. Besides, what he had studied was also a kind of spell. He and Sebastian specialized in the same study.The moment Yorrick got angry, Sebastian had sensed the faint power of Dainist principles from him."No blows are kind, and neither are harsh words! Why do you people feel that others should meekly allow you to beat them up? When your people are injured, you immediately think of it as the other party's mistake! That doesn't make any sense!" Sebastian answered coldly."Mr. Irving, kill that asshole!" Kayden said viciously. He was still clutching his crotch with one hand while he pointed at Sebastian with his other hand. Beside them, Jayden said defiantly, "Mr. Irving, you must not let this guy go! He's ruthless and extremely
Huh? Egbert frowned involuntarily. He had never felt that way before. What was going on? There was a loud blast, and the gigantic statue suddenly appeared out of thin air. At the same time, Egbert suddenly felt his blood churning inside him, and he immediately felt a sense of foreboding.He was about to turn and run when a black bolt of light hit him in the back. He immediately spat out a mouthful of blood and flew through the air like a broken kite. "Oh! Are you actually a sadist, old man?" Sebastian asked, smiling.Before Egbert could scramble up again, yet another bolt of dark light flew toward him."Damn it!"Egbert could no longer be conscious of his image and dignity. He swore at once. The dark light was aimed at his energy reserve. If he was hit, his decades of training would be completely ruined. However, he had plenty of life experience and had been through many such situations. When he saw the dark light flying toward him, he rolled across the floor like a bal
The dark shadow stretched out a large hand toward Nina. It appeared to be planning on tearing off her clothes. "Die?" Nina burst into laughter. How dare a ghost who was only around 300 years old talk to her about dying? As the smile stiffened on Nina's face, she bared her teeth, revealing fangs. Her scarlet eyes looked up impassively at the dark shadow above her head. "Aargh!" When the gigantic, dark shadow saw Nina's true form, it turned to try and escape, but it was too close to her that it was impossible for it to do so.It had only taken one step backward before Nina reached out and yanked it back."Have mercy, my lady!" The giant shadow disappeared and became a dark and scrawny-looking ghost that was less than five feet tall. "How dare you disrupt my dreams? You deserve to disintegrate into nothing!"Nina raised her hand and pressed down on top of the dark and scrawny ghost's head. "No!"The dark and scrawny ghost fell to its knees with a thump before Nina and sa
The Sacred Medicine Secret Annals also contained mystic spells from the Demon Sect. However, it was clearly written that those who practiced them would suffer divine punishment if they were to excel in it!Those were very heavy words indeed. How evil did those spells have to be if they would bring down divine punishment on those who excelled in practicing them?"Hmph! Stop trying to act as if you're smart in front of me. Have you ever seen such amazing spells? Believe it or not, I can kill your entire family with a click of my fingers?"There was a sinister tinge to Egbert's smile. With ordinary people, Egbert would only have to send out a thought to kill the entire family of his opponent instantly.However, Sebastian was being very dismissive of him. Evil spells like those required the supernatural spirit behind Egbert to sense the opponent's energy, after which they would use the same energy to find their family members.The process wasn't as mysterious as Egbert made it out
Those deceptive tricks appeared impressive, but those who Egbert healed would only end up in an even worse state, suffering even more."I haven't committed any crimes. How can I accept my punishment?" Sebastian asked disinterestedly.Brayden sneered. "You're not the one who decides whether you've committed a crime or not. Come! Subdue this defiant man!"Subdue Sebastian? Who would dare to do such a thing?The law enforcement hall members exchanged looks.Upon seeing this, Egbert stepped forward and said arrogantly, "Young man, you've seen what I can do. Compared to me, you martial arts practitioners aren't worthy of mention at all. I'll be lenient on you because you're young and ignorant. Just give up and come quietly!"Egbert was different from ordinary deacons in the Martial Arts Court. He had been hired specially as a mystic spells expert.When compared with mystic spells or cultivation, so-called martial arts weren't worthy of mention at all.That was because all mystic spe
Brayden sneered. "Kill you and cover this up? You overestimate yourselves. This is an act of protecting officials!" The bare fact of the matter was that they were going to kill everyone who knew about the Berkeleys' depraved acts. Once they had done so, the Berkeleys' perfect image would be restored. "Do you think that it's reasonable and lawful for Kayden to act the way he does?" Sebastian asked in a cold, accusing voice. "There's no helping it. Those in power must have some privileges. That's an accepted fact in the world. It's your fault for not being part of this class of people. If you're going to blame anyone, blame yourselves for being born in the wrong family!" Brayden said smugly as he shot Egbert Galen a glance. Egbert strode over to Kayden and crouched down to inspect his injuries. He tapped him with a finger. "Aargh!" The pain made huge beads of sweat drip down Kayden's face."Alright. You can stand up and take a few steps, Mr. Kayden!" Egbert said, putting his
"Oh?" Brayden glanced twice at Sebastian before asking, "What crime has Mr. Kayden committed? Tell me!" Sebastian couldn't be bothered to argue with him and just played the phone recording. The two old men frowned involuntarily when they finished listening to it."You're Inspector Jefferson, aren't you? I'd like to ask you how anyone could want to sleep with a bride at a wedding banquet in front of thousands of guests. Is he an animal? Don't the Berkeleys do this sort of thing in private?"Does this mean that when someone in the Berkeley family gets married, any of the guests or even a mere passerby can have their way with the bride in front of all their friends and family?"Javier turned red, then pale as he listened. He pointed at Sebastian and cursed him loudly. "You bastard! Stop talking nonsense!""Inspector Jefferson, since you admire Mr. Kayden's genes so much, why don't you let him improve your family's gene pool as well? You should especially let Mr. Kayden help out wi
Two black-clad men came up to the car door and opened it for Brayden, who then got out of the car. As he alighted, two elderly men also got out of the black car behind him. They came up beside Brayden and said, "Inspector Jefferson!" Brayden clasped his hands behind his back and nodded as he said, "Mr. Galen, Mr. Irving. Come and get rid of this nuisance with me today. Remember, we must not show any mercy!" The two old men nodded slightly and said, "We'll do as you say, Inspector Jefferson!"Brayden nodded slightly and said to Jayden, "Lead the way!" Jayden hastily gestured for them to go ahead. He led them happily into the Aequor.He had fled the hotel just a while ago, but in the blink of an eye, he seemed to have transformed into a different person. He walked into the hotel with his chest puffed up, and his entire demeanor had changed. The attendants on the first floor looked at him in surprise. "Did that handsome young guy go and get himself an invigorating shot of so
