Jesse saw that Salvador did not make a single sound of protest when Sebastian slapped him in the face. He felt a chill settle over his heart. They had bitten off more than they could chew. He hated Larry wholeheartedly. If it weren't for that idiot, he would never have delivered himself up on a platter like this!"M-Mr. Ballard, I… I…" Salvador was stuttering. He could not say a single word.The longer time dragged on, the more chilly he felt.In the blink of an eye, 40 minutes had passed, and he had not seen a single sign of his subordinates. That meant that they would not come at all, even if he waited until dawn.Salvador did not even have the courage to call and ask."If you can't think of anything, kneel there and think slowly." Sebastian pointed to the spot beside Griffin and Benaiah. Salvador looked at Jesse in resignation. He turned and opened the door to the room, then knelt meekly beside Griffin."Griffin, what's going on?" Cold sweat was pouring off Salvador's brow
The secretary rattled off a long string of bad news to Denver.Before she could finish, Denver's phone fell to the ground. He stared at Sebastian in terror. The latter had only made a phone call, and Ambrose had acted immediately. He hadn't left Lexton Group a single way out.What kind of allies did Sebastian have?"Mr. Helman? Hello? Mr. Helman, are you listening? Mr. Helman…" The secretary's voice came over the phone, but Denver was in no mood to listen.Larry had brought a disaster on the Helmans. Sebastian was definitely not the kind of person they could afford to offend.If it was only Ambrose who was going against them, Denver might not have been so scared. The important thing was that several of the people mentioned were companies who had ongoing loans with Lexton Group, and none of them knew Ambrose well.That was the most frightening thing. Who had Ambrose contacted after getting the call from Sebastian?What kind of person had so much power that he could block off
Sebastian nodded and said, "Are you familiar with the Gullivers?"Although Jace was the mastermind behind all of this, the Gullivers were much more well established in Sartvale than Jace was. They also had a close-knit relationship with the Martial Arts Association.That was why the Gullivers had become Sebastian's current biggest enemy. He had to find a way to deal with them at once.Denver nodded. He had been at the Gullivers' that afternoon, and he had even had tea with Aloysius. "If the Gullivers are planning anything, I want you to tell me," Sebastian said, smiling.Denver looked up sharply at him. He had never imagined that the reckless young man whom Aloysius had mentioned that afternoon would be Sebastian."Don't worry, Mr. Ballard. I won't let you down," Denver said, nodding heavily."Alright. As long as you do well, I'll consider curing your son. You can also get back everything you've lost."Denver groveled gratefully to Sebastian and then hauled Larry onto his back
After Sebastian had mixed up the paste, he cut Liam's bandages off with a pair of scissor and gently pulled the blood-stained bandages off. Finally, he smeared the medicinal paste on Liam's wounds.When the medicine touched his wounds, Liam's eyes widened, and he clenched his teeth."Endure it!" Sebastian smeared some more of the paste on, and Liam's expression slowly relaxed."Seb, what did you put in this paste? Why did it only hurt so much when you first put it on? I don't feel anything right now," Liam said in confusion. "There's numbginger in this. Leofric's numbing powder uses this herb," Sebastian explained as he smeared the paste on for Liam.When he was done, Sebastian smiled and said, "This medicine will help your flesh grow faster. Your wounds will probably close up within a couple of days."Liam's eyes widened in shock. He knew very well how bad his injuries were. He hadn't expected to recover for at least three months."Seb, I heard that someone from the Gulliver
For the next two days, Sebastian came at the same time every day to help Liam smear the medicinal paste on his wounds.On the fourth day, Sebastian used a towel to wipe off all the paste on Liam's body. He smiled and said, "Take a look! Your wounds should be fine now."Liam's eyes bulged in shock. He took a mirror and looked in it, only to see that his wounds really were as good as new. There weren't even any scars."Seb! Are you… are you secretly some kind of god?" Liam was surprised and delighted."I'm not a god, but treating external wounds like this is easy," Sebastian said, laughing. "Seb, why don't you collaborate with the army? I was so badly injured, but I've recovered completely in just three days. If this medicine could become used widely in the army, then the injuries that our soldiers suffer will decrease greatly," Liam said excitedly.Sebastian frowned slightly and asked, "Is the army manufacturing drugs too?""Seb, we don't only manufacture drugs. We only manufact
The two majors got out of the car and glanced up at the Moonlyte Club. They both frowned.Soldiers were not allowed to enter establishments for entertainment. "Sir, it isn't appropriate for us to enter," one of the majors said rather awkwardly.Before the middle-aged man could answer, Liam smiled and said, "I go in and out of this place all the time despite my rank. What are you afraid of?"The middle-aged man did not seem bothered. He pointed at the sign above him and said, "Moonlyte. This is a pretty good name, and the location of this place is quite good.""General, this…""Hm?" The middle-aged man frowned slightly. "Mr. Brighton, we—" the two majors stood at the entrance, looking awkward. "Stop dawdling and come in!" Albion Brighton glared impatiently at his subordinates before entering the Moonlyte Club side by side with Liam.The two majors had no choice but to hang their heads and follow them in. They looked like children who had done something wrong. They did not ev
"There's one more thing. You must not let any third party know your formula. You must have an exclusive patent for it," Albion added. Although Albion had only mentioned it in passing by saying that the effects were excellent, the truth was that the Inspection Department had found that the effects were almost miraculous!A simple knife wound would start closing up within two hours after applying the paste. It would be completely back to normal within four hours.Even gun wounds were able to recover exceedingly well within two days. Within four days, the patients would be fit for battle once more.That was why the army would not permit the Gold Remedy ointment to be leaked. It had to be monopolized by the army, which was why they had made the Gold Remedy ointment top secret. The medicine also could not be distributed in the market. If it fell into the hands of other countries, it would become a potential threat to Crestborne."Apart from that—" Before Albion could mention yet a
Rosalie turned to Albion and said, "Mr. Brighton, can we do it like this? I'll represent Arctic Snow Group in collaborating with Mr. Ballard, while Ms. Sutton uses her shares in Frostwave Corporation as collateral so that she can participate as a shareholder."Albion thought for a moment before frowning as he said, "Of course this is possible, but there is one condition. Mr. Ballard must become the juridical person, which is to say that he needs to own his own company for that to be possible."After all, the army could not sign contracts with all three of them at the same time. The only solution would be for Sebastian to register a company of his own, after which Arctic Snow Group and Frostwave Corporation would become partners in the collaboration. Rosalie spoke up first. "That's easy. This afternoon, we'll go and register a company. After that, we'll sign an equity pledge agreement." When Sebastian saw that Rosalie and Whitney had no objections, he had no choice but to agree.
