Callum almost wet himself with fright. He didn't even look up as he said reverentially, "Mr. Ballard, you're a very humorous person. When you go to any of the Coltranes' establishments, you'll be treated as the highest VIP. You don't need a card."A card? What idiot would ask someone like Sebastian for a card?Damn it! He would have to investigate the incident and fire whoever it was."Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Coltrane. May I leave now?" Sebastian said to the sales assistant, smiling."Of course." The sales assistant had gone pale with fright. If even Callum had to show him respect, how could they say no?"What about my VIP card, then? I want that gown too! You must give me a satisfactory explanation!" Melissa was furious.When Callum showed respect to Sebastian, she clearly saw the sales assistants looking scornfully at her.She was determined to get the gown no matter what. Even if she didn't wear it, she wouldn't let Rosalie buy it."Miss, we have many other gowns he
Rosalie had always put up a strong front, but inwardly, she was just a woman who wanted to be protected by someone who could shelter her from the storms.At the moment, Sebastian was the man who could give her that feeling of safety.After leaving the mall, Rosalie headed straight for Sunway with Sebastian. She had been planning to attend the banquet at Lune Tower that night alone, but Sebastian's words had left a deep impression on her. She wanted everyone in the world to know that Sebastian was the man she had chosen.Those in attendance at the banquet that night were all prominent figures in Sartvale from various fields, including politics and business. Every year in the winter months, Sartvale's General Chamber of Commerce would hold a similar banquet. Its primary purpose was for people to mingle. The banquet was being held at the largest conference hall in Lune Tower.The hall was more than ten thousand square feet in size, and there were many wealthy heirs and heiresses w
Melissa spoke arrogantly.Sebastian scoffed, "You? Who can you represent? You can only represent yourself. How dare a shrew like you say that you have status and influence? It's ridiculous!""You—" Melissa's expression changed slightly. She had been rendered speechless by Sebastian. "Your older brother Micah is fairly well-known, but as his younger sister, you really have no class at all! Haven't you completely humiliated Micah already?" Sebastian said, sneering. On the way to Lune Tower, Rosalie had told Sebastian about Micah, which was why he had some impression of him."How dare you say that I—" Sebastian interrupted her and said, "You have a big face, a flat chest, and short legs. Physiognomically speaking, you're the kind of person who will bring bad luck to your husband!""By the way, did you have a nose job? You got your chin done too, didn't you? Look at your legs! Let everyone have a look at it. Doesn't it look like two carrots stuck in the floor?"The crowd around
"Is there anything else, Ms. Stallone?" Sebastian asked, smiling."You must apologize to me! I don't care who you are! If you don't apologize, I guarantee that you won't be able to leave this hall tonight!"Melissa really was furious this time. She had been humiliated by Sebastian in front of so many people. If she didn't get back at him, how could she continue to hold her head up high in the upper class of Sunway?"Ms. Stallone, are you insane? Why should I apologize to you?" Sebastian asked, frowning."You're the one who's crazy! I'll say it again! Apologize to me at once!" Melissa screamed shrilly."I'd like to see what you'll do to me if I don't apologize to you." Sebastian looked coldly at her.His patience was limited. Sebastian could not believe Melissa! He had no idea where she got her sense of superiority from. She acted as if she were the queen and that everyone's life had to revolve around her."If you don't apologize, I guarantee that you'll die a painful death!" A m
"Cut that crap! I… I'm fine! Why would my stomach hurt?""Really?" Sebastian's lips curved upward, and he said calmly, "Not only can I tell that your stomach hurts, I can even tell you that after one minute, you'll feel like you're suffocating and that you feel really hot. You might even start taking your clothes off.""I advise you to go home, Ms. Stallone. It's getting late, and your mother wants you home for dinner," Sebastian said, grinning."Shut up!" Melissa's eyes were bulging in anger. Why was he making predictions for her? Did he really think he was an expert?Before Melissa could retort, she felt a suffocating feeling in her chest. Within three seconds, she began to have difficulty breathing.Right after that, an indescribable feeling of heat assailed her, and she felt as if she was wrapped in flames. Her gown became drenched with sweat at once, and she could feel a wet patch on both her chest and lower body.Micah was shocked to see her, and he looked warily at Sebasti
"Call an ambulance, hurry!" Micah caught Melissa and yelled at the people around them.Sebastian was surprised. He hadn't expected Melissa to faint from anger. If he had known that that would happen, he wouldn't have had to waste a burn charm on her.The truth was that Melissa's reaction was just the effect of the burn charm. As the name suggested, a burn charm was a kind of spell that would burn the flesh.It could strengthen the flesh of those who practiced martial arts training, and even ordinary people with no foundation in martial arts could become as strong as steel. "Move aside. Let me see the patient. Perhaps she's the victim of an evil plot!" A young man in a suit squeezed his way out of the crowd. Behind him, an old man in a suit followed."Who are you?""My name is Gregory Larkin, and this is my grandson, Kyle Larkin. He's a very good fortune teller. Haven't you heard of him before, Mr. Stallone?" Gregory smirked arrogantly as he spoke.He was a well-known geomancer
The most important thing was to do the mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. It was a rare opportunity!"You're barely out of puberty! What would you know? Move aside! I'll transfer energy to her!" Gregory said, getting ready to launch himself at Melissa.Micah didn't know much about the mystic arts, but he could recognize a pervert when he saw one!Besides, the Stallones were a prestigious family in Sunway, and they had met plenty of geomancers before. Even if Melissa really was the victim of some nefarious plot, this wasn't the way to save her.Shouldn't they be drawing charms for her to drink with water or giving her some kind of pill?Instead, he felt that the eyes of the Larkins were greedy and hungry, the same way he looked when he went to a brothel!"Wait! I don't care whether you really are experts or not, but if you do mouth-to-mouth resuscitation for my sister and she doesn't wake up, you'll regret it!"Micah's threat took effect at once. The Larkins immediately looked subdued
Micah couldn't help thinking that Melisa had suddenly become this way after Sebastian took out that white piece of paper. He suddenly became alert. He had heard about how powerful yellow paper charm spells could be. If Melissa had been hit with a yellow paper charm, it would be troublesome!"You don't have to know geomancy or the mystic arts to be able to see what's wrong with your sister, do you?"She's unconscious right now, but she has a rosy complexion and doesn't look sick at all. If I'm guessing correctly, the pill this old man is holding is the kind of pill that can replenish energy!"Your sister fainted because of oversaturated energy, so she can't take this pill. If she does, her life will be in danger," Sebastian said sternly."You have to have evidence when you talk, young man. My grandfather's Soulreturner pill is famous in Sunway. So many prominent figures have taken it, and they praise Grandpa for how good the pill is," Kyle said, his eyes bulging with anger. "I t
