Zane shut the door while he was speaking and started the engine."Come home first. I have something to discuss with Mr. Ballard," Theodore said. He hung up."Seb, my dad told me to take you back. He has something he wants to discuss with you," Zane said tentatively. "Alright. Let's go back to your place first, then." Sebastian nodded slightly.Gavin knew Theodore, so he went with them as well.When they reached the Northman residence, Theodore called Sebastian into the study and said very seriously, "Mr. Ballard, I think you were a little impulsive in how you treated the Dunhills today."Sebastian already knew what Theodore's intentions were, so he nodded slightly and said, "You might be right, but I don't like his arrogant attitude.""Wait a moment," Theodore said. He pulled out his phone, found a number, and dialed it. When the call connected, he handed the phone to Sebastian and said, "It's Mr. Shields Senior."Sebastian was surprised. He hadn't expected Cillian to be inv
Theodore led Sebastian out as soon as he finished speaking. Before getting into the car, he called Ambrose and asked him to meet them at the hotel entrance.When Ambrose heard that Sebastian had agreed to help, he was delighted and thanked Theodore profusely over the phone.Theodore exchanged a few pleasantries with him before hanging up.In the hall of the Elysium, Angus looked coldly at Fernando and Wilbur. They had been trussed up by the Dunhills' bodyguards and tossed into a corner. They were no longer being treated as guests."Sir, if we don't give them any water, I'm afraid that they'll…" the bodyguard trailed off as he glanced at Fernando, who kept licking his lips."Let them have some, then." Angus turned to Fernando and Wilbur and said, "If it weren't for the fact that Brett is about to be saved, I would toss you downstairs right now!"Wilbur hunched his shoulders in fear. He wasn't even thinking about how to get the contract anymore. He just wanted to survive.When Amb
"Alright!" The black-clad bodyguard turned and ran into the elevator. "Please sit down, Mr. Ballard." Angus' attitude was now much more pleasant compared to before. He even ordered someone to pour tea for Sebastian and the others."Mr. Ballard, Luther has been my subordinate for many years. Do you think you could save his life?" Angus requested sincerely.Luther had been stabbed in the stomach, and both his legs were broken. He was barely hanging on, and even the best doctors in Sunway could not do anything for him.Although Luther was just a dog to Angus, he still didn't want to lose such a loyal dog. "That's not hard. I'll write a prescription again. Don't worry, Mr. Dunhill," Sebastian said, chuckling."Thank you, Mr. Ballard. I'll be sure to repay you handsomely," Angus said firmly.He took the prescription from Sebastian and handed it over to one of the bodyguards standing beside him. Only then did Angus look at Brett, who was lying on the bed. His son appeared to be an i
The yellow paper charm drifted gently onto Brett's forehead.A blast of white light enveloped Brett at once."Mr. Dunhill, your son will wake up in about an hour's time. Make this mound of graveyard dirt into a sachet and let him keep it with him at all times. After a month, he'll be as good as new," Sebastian said as he handed the graveyard dirt to Angus."Go and get me a sachet!" Angus instructed.After a while, the sachet was ready. Sebastian instructed them to crush some medicinal herbs and smear them on Luther's wound."I'll give you another prescription. Let him take the medicine on time, and he'll be fully recovered within a month," Sebastian said. He took some pen and paper, wrote a prescription, and handed it to a bodyguard. "Go and get the medicinal herbs," Angus ordered.The black-clad bodyguards turned and left after receiving Angus' permission."Mr. Ballard, I have a small gift that I hope you'll accept," Angus said. He took a square, redwood box from a black-cl
There was a glint in Angus' eyes as he looked at Sebastian.Silas' health was deteriorating, and without him around, the Dunhills would lose their main pillar of support.The so-called renowned doctors, even those in Draepolis, could not do anything about it at all.However, Sebastian had given Angus hope.There were many prestigious families in Janover, but what they all competed in was how long the head of the family could live.For instance, the Tamson family had once been very glamorous, but it was now less than a third-rate family. It had lost all its influence among the prominent families when the head of the family, Archie Tamson, passed away three years ago. The Dunhills would face the same thing one day because no one could live forever. However, as long as Silas could hold on, it would give the Dunhills precious time to develop further."Mr. Ballard, are you interested in going on a trip to Janover?" Angus said, smiling wolfishly at him. He was now no longer hostile
Ambrose was secretly impressed by Theodore's bravery. How could he covet something that belonged to someone else? He had taken Angus' 1000-year-old fawnleaf for free and did not look guilty at all.An hour passed very quickly.When a few bodyguards helped Brett up, it was clear to see that his complexion was rosier, and his eyes were shining. He looked much more energetic than he had before."Brett, how do you feel?" Angus asked in concern."Dad, I'm all better! I feel like I have limitless strength right now. That well that kept popping up in my mind is gone, too," Brett said happily. "Good, good!" Angus laughed heartily, which was an unusual occurrence for him.Brett's condition was cured! He would be able to hand over the entire Dunhill fortune to his own son in the future, and he would no longer have to worry about someone from a branch of the Dunhill family snatching their assets."What about our contract, Mr. Dunhill?" Ambrose asked, grabbing the opportunity."Alright, a
It wasn't because Sebastian had powerful allies at all! That was why Larry had come looking for Sebastian, and he had brought reinforcements.At that moment, Rosalie rushed over. "Sebastian, you're finally back! He's even injured the manager and the security guards. Besides that, the police are refusing to pick up the phone. If you hadn't come back, I really wouldn't have any idea what to do," Rosalie said anxiously.Sebastian patted her shoulder gently and said, "It's alright. I'm here. Let's go in."When Sebastian and Rosalie walked inside, they saw that the floor was covered with shards from smashed beer bottles. Three escorts were huddled in a corner of the room, weeping bitterly. "We meet again, Mr. Larry." Sebastian grinned and pushed the security guard, gesturing for him to go out. The security guard looked as if he had been granted a huge mercy and ran out of the room."Ballard, what a small world. I came specially to see you today," Larry said, smiling scornfully.Seb
"How dare you?" Sebastian asked coldly. He looked up at the security cameras above them.Right after that, a silver needle shot out from between his fingers. There was a cracking sound as the camera was smashed by the silver needle."Do you have a death wish? How dare you attack Larry?" Benaiah Laird was furious when he saw that Sebastian had sent Larry flying with one punch, as if the latter was nothing more than a punching bag.Jesse Zinder stood up and grabbed a wine bottle. He stared fixedly at Sebastian.Sebastian wiped away the blood on his head and said to Rosalie, "Go and keep guard outside. Don't let anyone in."Rosalie was extremely smart. Sebastian had taken those two blows because he wanted the security cameras to catch the footage. No matter what Sebastian did to the young men next, it would be in self-defense. "Don't worry, no one is going to disturb you," Rosalie said. She turned elegantly and walked away, closing the door tightly behind her. "I've never liked u
