The Amazing Doctor Chapter 109
"Beauty and skincare? From Mr. Ballard?" Rosalie exclaimed, hastily getting out of the bathtub. She didn't even bother with a bathrobe and asked the maid, "Where is he now?" The maid, surprised by Rosalie's urgency, replied, "He has already left." Rosalie felt a sense of disappointment and glanced at the two jars on the table. They looked like ordinary jars, possibly for pickling. Upon opening them, she found a dark and somewhat unpleasant-smelling substance. "Can this stuff really be used for beauty and skincare?" Rosalie wondered. Just then, her phone rang with a message from Sebastian, "Apply morning and evening, leave on for fifteen minutes." The message was brief but comprehensive. Rosalie's lips curled into a meaningful smile. "It seems Mr. Ballard still cares about me."Without further ado, Rosalie started taking selfies in front of the mirror. Then, she began applying the mud-like substance from the jars onto her face.It felt refreshingly cool, and her skin i

Whitney furrowed her brow, expressing her dissatisfaction.Shortly after, Mabel called, sounding angry. "Ms. Sutton, I knew that Sebastian's move to open a company wasn't that simple! Look at this. Arctic Snow Mask. Isn't he intentionally competing with the face mask we are about to launch?"Whitney remained silent, her expression grim.Mabel continued, eagerly explaining, "Ms. Sutton, you can't be indecisive anymore. You and Sebastian are divorced! I know you don't want to confront him, but he has already encroached upon us. Arctic Snow Mask is direct competition for our product! I can't just let Sebastian continue like this."Whitney sighed and asked, "What do you wanna do?""We should attack Arctic Snow Mask from all sides. As long as Sebastian promotes it, we engage in a price war! If that doesn't work, we can use public opinion to bring down his company!" Mabel declared indignantly.Whitney raised an eyebrow, coldly saying, "Is it necessary to go this far? It's just a face m

Zeke had just taken a sip when he choked awkwardly. He smiled and said, "I can't hide anything from you, Dr. Ballard. Last night, you mentioned that my illness could be cured, right?""Yes." Sebastian nodded.Hurriedly, Zeke asked, "Then, could you please prescribe some medicine for me?"Sebastian smiled as he retrieved a prescription from the drawer, handing it to Zeke. "Follow the instructions and get the medicine from the pharmacy down the block."Surprised, Zeke took the prescription and asked, "Dr. Ballard, did you anticipate that I would come?"Sebastian simply smiled in response.Zeke didn't stay long. After paying the consultation fee, he left promptly.Before leaving, Zeke said, "By the way, Dr. Ballard, I'll let you in on something. Next week, there's the district competition with seven matches. Points will be accumulated based on the ranking in each match, and elimination will take place at the end."Only the top ten with the highest score in total from the seven mat

Haughtily, Mabel sneered and drove away from the place. After Sebastian finished his meal with Tommy, he returned to the shop and happened to see a familiar-looking car leaving."Mabel?"Sebastian was puzzled but didn't care much. Just then, his phone rang. It was Whitney."Ms. Sutton, what's the matter?" Sebastian asked absentmindedly.Whitney's voice was sharp and unquestionable, saying, "Sebastian, meet me at 1:30 pm at Magnolia Café. I want to speak with you."Later, when Sebastian arrived at Magnolia Café, he spotted Whitney sitting by the window. Arms crossed, she exuded a cold and elegant demeanor, truly fitting of a CEO.Approaching Whitney, Sebastian sat down and smilingly asked, "Ms. Sutton, are you so idle to be inviting me for coffee?""Cut the small talk." Whitney glanced at him and then demanded, "What's the deal with Rosé Corporation?"Sebastian replied with a shrug, "What's the issue?"Whitney scoffed and commented, "Naming a company after another woman.

"My company's research and development team has tested the formula hundreds of times. There are no issues! Since you claim there's a problem, tell me exactly where," Whitney stated curtly.Sebastian frowned slightly and answered, "A minority of consumers may experience skin itching and redness.""That's ridiculous!" Whitney laughed mockingly.She continued, "Sebastian, tell me, which facial mask on the market doesn't have side effects for some people? Are you trying to scare me?"Upon hearing this, Sebastian's expression darkened. "I'm not trying to scare you. I'm just giving you a heads-up.""I don't need it! I know better than you whether the product has issues or not! All you need to do is watch as Frostwave Corporation's new launch sweeps the entire market," Whitney argued and then left the café.Sebastian was helpless. After sitting for a while, he also got up and left.When Whitney returned to the company, she immediately called Mabel and asked, "How much longer until the

Soon, Rosalie drove Sebastian to Artifact Street in West Market.The lively and crowded Artifact Street immediately captivated Sebastian. On both sides of the street were antique shops, with people coming in and out to hunt for treasures. Among them were also tourists.Many vendors had spread various antique pieces for sale on tarps on the ground. Rosalie seemed to enjoy the bustling atmosphere. She looked around while explaining, "Dr. Ballard, this place is similar to Vintage Bazaar in Janover, only much smaller."Sebastian nodded, casually scanning the area. He noticed that most of the items sold by the street vendors were counterfeit. They were deceiving visitors from out of town.He had already seen several tourists happily leaving with fake antiques, thinking they had discovered treasures.After a brief stroll, Sebastian began searching for the medicinal furnace he needed. Quickly, he stopped at one of the stalls.When the tan-skinned vendor saw Sebastian, he enthusiastica
The Amazing Doctor Chapter 115
Sebastian sneered as he returned the medicinal furnace to the vendor, turning to leave.Frantically, the vendor cried out, "Wait, sir, are you really interested in buying it?"Sebastian waved his hand dismissively while replying, "I just want to buy a medicinal furnace to make medicine at home. 200 grand is too expensive. I'm thinking 10 to 20 grand would be more reasonable."As he spoke, Sebastian intentionally slowed down his pace.The vendor furrowed his brow. After a moment of hesitation, he said, "Fine, 20 grand! I can't go any lower! If you want it, just take it."Sebastian broke into a grin as he turned toward the vendor. "Okay."Rosalie grew anxious and asked, "Dr. Ballard, are you really buying it? This medicinal furnace looks too ordinary and dirty. If you want one, I can arrange for someone to send you a better one later.""Quiet. I have my own plans," Sebastian whispered.Hearing this, Rosalie didn't say another word.Soon, Sebastian paid for the medicinal furnace.

"You!"Leslie's eyes flashed dangerously, and her expression soured.All her life, she had always gotten anything she wanted, and no one had ever dared to go against her like this. Especially not in public!Scumbag!"You're really determined to go against me, right?" Leslie declared lowly as she let out a cold chuckle.She continued, "Do you even know who you're dealing with right now? There's nothing I can't buy in Steinberg, so what makes you think that I can't buy a measly artifact from Artifact Street?"Don't blame me for what I'll do next if you don't give me that medicinal furnace!"What an arrogant, unreasonable, and demanding young woman.Sebastian glanced at Leslie indifferently before he coldly replied, "Is that right? Then, I would love to see what you're going to do next."Leslie was livid, and she screeched, "My grandfather is James Turner!""I've told you, even if your grandfather asked me, my answer wouldn't change," Sebastian replied calmly.Leslie stamped he

Zane turned to look at the middle-aged, wealthy woman. He frowned and asked, "Who are you?""You don't need to bother about who I am, but is this how the Northmans run their business? I already reserved those bangles. What right do you have to give them to him?" the woman screamed shrilly."I would have forgotten if you hadn't mentioned it. Did you say that you're part of the upper class?" Sebastian asked, turning to glance at the middle-aged woman."Well? Are you going to break my legs too? Hmph, as if you're worthy of doing so!" The middle-aged woman glared coldly at Sebastian. She wasn't an ordinary person. A nobody like Zachary couldn't be compared with her. She didn't even think anything of offending the Northmans. Otherwise, she wouldn't have had the guts to question the situation when she already knew that Zane was the Northman heir. "Break your legs?" Sebastian shook his head slightly. That wasn't his style. Sebastian liked giving people a taste of their own medicine.
The Amazing Doctor Chapter 1848
"You crazy bastard!" Zane's features were contorted with anger, and he slapped Zachary hard in the face.Zachary was startled by Zane's slap, and he clutched his face as he stared at the man in shock. "Zachary, if you want to die, do it yourself. You can go hang yourself, jump in the river, or jump onto the train tracks, but don't drag our family down with you!" Zane exclaimed as he delivered two more resounding slaps."M-Mr. Northman, I—"Zachary was utterly confused by Zane's slaps."What are you standing there for? Get lost!" Zane yelled furiously at the security guards. The security guards jumped in fright and ran out at once."Seb, you… I… I… This is negligence on my part. Please don't take it to heart."Zane was almost in tears."Of course I won't take it to heart. The actions of this individual have nothing to do with the Northmans. However, I can't just let the fact that he wanted to break my legs go. I hate it when people threaten me," Sebastian said with a stormy exp

Zane was startled. Sebastian was at his family's flagship store?He thought for a moment before suddenly remembering that his family had a jewelry store in Steinberg.Sebastian must be there."Seb, if there's anything you want to buy, just notify me," Zane said. "I'll deliver it to you myself. Why would you need to go over there?"Sebastian was a very important person, and Zane would do anything to flatter him. If Sebastian went to their store and some ignoramus offended him, it would cause a huge mess. "Oh, thank you for your kind thoughts, Mr. Northman," Sebastian said. Then, his tone purposely turned cold. "However, it seems that I'm not very welcome in your family's store.""What?"It was exactly what he had been worried about. Zane broke out in a cold sweat at once.Something similar had already happened once before, but Sebastian hadn't pursued the matter. However, if the same thing happened several times, Sebastian might start seeing the Northmans in a different light.

"Don't be angry, Whitney. She was a mistress before she was a prostitute, so she's speaking from experience," Sebastian said in a teasing tone.Whitney couldn't help bursting into laughter. She gave Sebastian a light punch on the shoulder. "I never realized how mean you were in the past!""Who the hell are you talking about?" The fat woman screamed shrilly as she pointed at Sebastian, her eyes bulging as she glared at him. "Is there anyone else here?" Sebastian sneered. "However, a man who could keep you around with money or spend money on you has questionable taste."The fat woman hated people calling her ugly. She wasn't actually ugly; she was just average.However, comparison was rarely flattering. When she stood next to Whitney, she immediately looked extraordinarily ugly. "Security! Get over here and toss these two beggars out!" the fat woman yelled angrily, pointing at Sebastian and Whitney.She turned to Zachary and demanded, "Are you the manager? Look at your store! Ho

"Mr. Zucker, these customers want to look at the emerald articles," the sales assistant explained hastily.Zachary Zucker, the store manager, clasped his hands behind his back and went up to Sebastian and Whitney. He looked them up and down and frowned. "Lola, you're a senior staff member here. Can't you judge people at all?" Zachary asked imperiously, looking grim. "These emerald articles cost at least tens of millions. Do you think that just anyone can afford them?"Noticing the anger on Zachary's face, Lola explained quickly. "Mr. Zucker, but—""But what? All of these articles are priceless. How can you take them out for just anyone? If they're damaged, who's going to take responsibility?" Zachary scolded."You're saying that I can't afford them, aren't you?" Sebastian glanced coldly at Zachary. He was never lenient toward people who were contemptuous of others. "Do I even need to say that when you look like that? The cheapest out of all of them are the bangles, which cost 1

Sebastian patted Whitney's hand gently to reassure her."Come with me," the sales assistant said. She led them through a pair of moon gates and entered a smaller exhibition hall.There were all kinds of emerald jewelry and pendants under bulletproof glass. There were carved statuettes of gods, as well as round emerald pendants and emerald plates.They were all made of AAA-quality emerald, and any of them would cost at least two million dollars.Most wealthy businessmen who came to the exhibition hall just wanted to browse. There were very few who actually spent money to buy them.It was partly because wealthy businessmen didn't know anything about emeralds, and they only bought emerald articles as a way to follow trends and appear elegant. On the other hand, spending two million to buy an emerald pendant just to toy with it sounded absurdly extravagant.Although the emerald articles were clearly of higher quality than those in the hall outside, there was still no sign of divine e

Sebastian had been planning on telling Whitney about what had happened last night, but after thinking about it, he decided not to do so. "No particular reason. You've just been working so hard lately, and I want to give you a little gift. Well? Do you have time?" Sebastian asked impassively.Whitney was delighted. Had Sebastian had a change of heart?She immediately answered, "Okay, wait for me at the convenience store. I'll get ready and be there in half an hour."Although she had said that it would take half an hour, she arrived at the convenience store entrance in less than 20 minutes.Sebastian told the rest of them briefly about where he was going before he grabbed a jacket and got into the car."Sebastian, when are you going to stop looking this unkempt?" Whitney asked, smiling wryly when she saw that Sebastian was wearing a trench coat that he had bought several years ago. With Sebastian's current fortune, it would've been nothing for him to go around laden with jewelry
The Amazing Doctor Chapter 1842
Whitney had been under a lot of pressure lately. On the one hand, she was very busy with the expansion of the pharmaceutical factory, and she had to do everything on her own. On the other, watching Rosalie and Sebastian act lovey-dovey with each other every day was also a form of torture to Whitney."I trust you. No matter what happens and when it happens, I'll still trust you," Rosalie said earnestly as she looked into Sebastian's eyes. Sebastian nodded. He stretched and said, "It's getting late. You and Whitney should get some rest. I've got to go back to the convenience store.""It's so late. Don't go. Why don't I sleep with you?" Rosalie winked at him.Sebastian glanced down at Rosalie's enormous chest. The problem was that time waited for no man. Sebastian had to think of a plan before the Sapientia members came to get revenge. Otherwise, any neglect on his part could result in a huge mistake. He wouldn't allow himself to commit such an unforgivable mistake. "No, I've g

Phineas watched Sebastian and the others leave, feeling anxious. His features were twisted into a frown. Ezekiel and Keanu were both dead. This was extremely big news!Besides, it had taken place in Steinberg, which was under Phineas' jurisdiction. If the Martial Arts Court asked about it…Phineas didn't dare to pursue his train of thought further. This wouldn't do! How could he bear the storm of anger that was sure to come?Therefore, he said quickly to the chauffeur, "Hurry! Go to Ventus Estate."Phineas immediately headed to Ventus Estate and asked to see Belinda. When he told her about everything that had happened that night, even Belinda's brow furrowed tightly. Ezekiel's death didn't matter, as Belinda could smooth things over with just a word. The problem was that Keanu was one of the apprentices of the three major elders in the Sapientia. Sebastian being responsible for his murder was equivalent to making himself the enemy of the Sapientia. Even Belinda didn't have mu
