Chapter 120

Author: Wendell Mayhew
"Thank you, Theresa," Whitney replied with a smile.

"What would you like for dinner? If you don't have anywhere in mind, I know a nice cabaret," Theresa said.

"I'm alright with anything. You can go ahead and make the reservation," Whitney said as she stared longingly at Theresa.

She was overjoyed that Theresa was here with her.

Theresa had been her best friend since childhood and had left four years ago to complete her double doctorate in traditional and modern medicine overseas.

Theresa had returned to Steinberg because she had promised Whitney four years ago that she would help her.

To fulfill her promise to Whitney, Theresa had even given up on a golden job opportunity overseas that was willing to pay her 500 thousand dollars in foreign currency yearly!

"Alright then. I've already made a reservation at The Fleeting Dream. Let's go!" Theresa said.

At night, in front of the entrance of The Fleeting Dream, Sebastian got out of the car first, and Rosalie smiled as she said,

    "So what? At least I'm not in the wrong! Unlike you," Whitney grumbled.Sebastian frowned but didn't respond.Just then, Rosalie walked over. She was slightly stunned to see Whitney there as well, and she asked, "Ms. Sutton, are you here for dinner too?"As she spoke, she walked over to Sebastian and clutched at his arm. She then shot a smile at a pale-looking Whitney and said, "Ms. Sutton, I'll go in with Sebastian first. Enjoy your dinner with your friend!"After that, she dragged Sebastian into the cabaret before Whitney could even answer.Whitney huffed and stomped her feet in annoyance. Watching Sebastian and Rosalie walk into the cabaret together gave her a stuffy feeling in her chest.Just then, Theresa had also parked the car and walked toward Whitney with confident strides. She raised an eyebrow as she asked, "Who was that just now?""No one important. Let's go," Whitney replied coldly."Alright then," Theresa said, and the two women linked arms before they walked into

    Theresa stood behind the both of them with her arms crossed before her chest as she asked them coldly. Sebastian turned to face the woman behind him and asked in confusion, "Do we know each other?"Theresa smiled mildly. "I'm Whitney's best friend from childhood, Theresa Livington. I was studying overseas four years ago, so I couldn't attend her wedding."Best friend?Sebastian frowned. Whitney had never mentioned Theresa before."Is there something wrong then, Ms. Livington?" Sebastian asked.Theresa scanned Sebastian critically before she said haughtily, "Three years ago, I had wondered who Whitney had married. She was always telling me how handsome and capable her husband was. However, I see now that you're not that special after all."Sebastian frowned but still flashed Theresa a smile. "If this is all you wanted to say, then there's no need to continue. Whitney and I are already divorced," he said.Theresa gave him a serene smile as she replied, "Even if the both of you

    It was just that Theresa had indeed gone a bit too far with her words just now. She never said that her three-year marriage to Sebastian was a stain on her life.Sebastian's gaze was frosty as he let out a mocking chuckle. "Ms. Sutton, if there's anything you need to tell me in the future, please just tell it to me directly. There's no need for you to trouble your best friend to humiliate me," he said."Sebastian… It was all just a misunderstanding…" Whitney started, desperate to explain herself, but she was cut off by Sebastian's scoff.He then deliberately turned to look at Theresa before locking eyes with Whitney again.The meaning behind his look was clear. How could this possibly be a misunderstanding? Did she really want him to believe that everything Theresa said was of her own accord?"Ms. Sutton, I've never wanted to fight with you, but if you keep forcing my hand, I will not hesitate to retaliate," he informed her coldly.Whitney paled at that, and Theresa walked

    Theresa was extremely excited.Anyone who could develop a prescription like this must be an absolute genius!If this prescription was discovered by research institutions abroad, it would certainly create an uproar in the medical world!Whitney looked embarrassed and wondered if she should tell Theresa the truth. After all, Theresa had just insulted Sebastian to his face half an hour ago at the cabaret.What would Theresa think if she knew that Sebastian was the one who had made this prescription?After hesitating for a while, Whitney smiled lightly. "It's nothing. This prescription was made through the joint efforts of the research department at my company."Theresa was disappointed when she heard this. It had been a collaborative effort, then. However, it was enough to prove that Whitney's research team was outstanding. "Theresa, is there anything wrong with the prescription?" Whitney was more concerned about that. This prescription had to be used with Sebastian's acupunctur

    "I believe in you! Keep it up!"Rosalie ran off without knowing whether or not Sebastian had heard her.Sebastian turned in surprise. He smiled exasperatedly as he watched the car's tail lights recede into the distance. Compared to Whitney, Rosalie was a lot more naive and endearing. Besides, she reminded him of how unconditionally Whitney had trusted in him three years ago. Sebastian exhaled, feeling like his mind was crowded with thoughts. As he was bored, he thought of what Whitney had accused him of that morning. After some thought, he opened Twitter and searched for the account "Aloof Snow". It was definitely Rosalie.She had more than 100 thousand followers, which was a pretty high number.She didn't update much, and there were only about four or five tweets in total. They were mostly pictures of herself that she'd taken while traveling, and all the comments below were from beautiful women. The most recent tweet was about the "Arctic Snow Mask", and it had been post

    Very soon, his tweet began trending, boosted by an invisible burst of power. It wasn't Sebastian's intention, but unfortunately, Crestborne Good Doctors was a very popular topic. There was also someone making mischief behind the scenes, which pushed the tweet to the top three trends.It created a huge amount of discussion. At the same time, Fergus was sitting in a private room at a nightclub. There was raucous music and gyrating, pretty girls. He was surrounded by his drinking buddies. He was holding his phone with an evil smirk on his face, looking satisfied at how successful his scheme had been. He sent a message to a Twitter user. "Good work! Continue creating buzz for this, and make sure to tarnish Sebastian's name!"He then added, "Also, make sure to elevate the image of Whitney as an independent female CEO! I have a few photos here. One is of Whitney looking like a strong, independent woman, and the other is of Sebastian flirting around with other women after abandoni

    The next morning, Sebastian rose early and started work. Suddenly, there was the loud roar of a car engine.A Porsche 911 drove up. Rosalie got out of the car. She was dressed in casual sportswear and looked youthful and attractive."What are you doing here?" Sebastian asked, his brow furrowed.Rosalie laughed. "I'm here because I want to see you about something.""What is it?" Sebastian asked. "The first round of the district competition is going to start next week. There will be people from Crestborne Good Doctors recording the entire thing. How are things going with you? Do you need me to help you arrange your order of appearance?"For this sort of competition, especially if it was a recording for a TV show, the order of appearance was very important.It would directly influence the marks given by the mentors. Sebastian didn't really mind. He was drawing a protective charm while fiddling with his mirror of symbols. He said absently, "It doesn't matter which order I a

    Roberto frowned slightly. He opened his mouth and said, "The contest rules do not state that contestants aren't allowed to formulate their own prescription. "However, Ms. Griffin, if Sebastian insists on formulating his own description, then our mentors will be even more strict in their evaluation and scoring. "I hope that you can let Sebastian know about this, and that he won't be too self-assured. He shouldn't dream about becoming popular overnight."Traditional medicine emphasizes focused research. Don't try to attract attention and popularity like they do in the entertainment industry," he warned. This was sound advice from Roberto.Roberto approved of Sebastian's skills in medicine, but he didn't agree with what Sebastian was planning to do.It was very dangerous to formulate one's own prescription in a professional competition like this one. Firstly, the prescription had to be approved by the mentors. Secondly, the efficacy of the prescription had to be stronger than t

    Even though Declan had already said that the old man was only in shock and didn't have a cerebral infarction, the middle-aged man still wanted to hear the opinion of a young traditional medicine doctor like Sebastian! He must be either crazy or an idiot!"If he applies that needle, your father's complexion will go from pale to dark at once. When that happens, it'll only be even more dangerous," Sebastian said impassively."Stop talking crap, Sebastian! My grandfather is the elder of the Healer Sect! Are you implying that he's not as good as you are?" Bryce yelled angrily, pointing at Sebastian.He was furious. "Sebastian, are you doubting my skills in medicine? You're a rookie in the medical field. I only complimented you at the dinner table out of politeness. Did it go to your head?" Declan demanded curtly, his expression changing."You're trying to prick the acupuncture points on the base of the patient's neck as well as in the center of his chest so that you can unblock his br

    "Wow, it really is Mr. Byrne Senior! Hello, hello!" A slightly pudgy middle-aged man exclaimed. He hurried forward and shook Declan's hand heartily.Declan frowned and looked at him for a long time, but he couldn't remember where he had seen the pudgy man before.There were too many people who tried to flatter Declan every day, and he couldn't possibly remember every single one of them."Who are you?" Declan asked, his brow furrowed as he shook the man's hand. "Mr. Byrne Senior, you're so busy, so of course you won't remember me! I'm Fritz Thomson! I had the pleasure of meeting you two years ago while I was shooting a documentary about traditional medicine," Fritz said courteously.Declan finally nodded. Fritz was either a reporter or a director. It wasn't surprising that Declan had forgotten who he was.Although the Healer Sect was also among the mystic martial arts sects, it was very different from the Nine Sects. The Healer Sect had always had close connections with the sec

    Sebastian waved a hand slightly at the middle-aged man and said, "I'm not a genius doctor. I'm just an ordinary traditional medicine doctor. However, that old man is in a very dangerous situation. You must not touch him!"He spoke urgently when he saw that the middle-aged woman was propping the old man up so that he was lying on her lap.The middle-aged woman looked up at the middle-aged man. She was clearly hesitant.They were on the top floor, and the tiled floor was so cold. She didn't think that it would be safe for her to let the old man just lie on the floor. "Listen to Dr. Ballard! You won't go wrong!" the middle-aged man said quickly to her."Dr. Ballard? He's nothing compared to my grandfather!" Bryce exclaimed. He was annoyed to hear the middle-aged man addressing Sebastian so respectfully.After all, Declan was the elder of the Healer Sect. There were even numerous sage doctors who had to treat Declan with respect as their senior in the industry!Who did Sebastian th

    Since Declan had coincidentally met Sebastian at the dinner table that day, he had thought of bringing the latter over to his side. That way, Sebastian could work for him. "Sebastian, I'm planning to make an exception and take you as my apprentice. What do you think?" Declan asked again when he saw that Sebastian was ignoring him.Sebastian continued to ignore him. Did he really thought he could be Sebastian's mentor? The old man must be crazy!"Sebastian, you should hurry and kneel to my grandfather! You're lucky to get him as a mentor! My grandfather hasn't accepted any apprentices for 20 years!"Bryce glared at Sebastian, whom he felt was being far too tactless. There were countless people fighting to have Declan as a mentor."Mr. Byrne Senior, I don't wish to have a mentor. Besides, no one is qualified to be one," Sebastian said impassively. "You little—"Declan was furious. Sebastian was far too arrogant! He was already humbling himself by deigning to take Sebastian as an

    Bryce saw the anger in Declan's face, so he said reluctantly to Larys, "I'm sorry, Mr. Compton. I've acted impulsively."Acted impulsively? It would have been better if Bryce hadn't apologized at all. His apology had made Larys even angrier. He clearly had no respect for Larys at all if he could slap him just out of a moment's impulse. Larys was the mayor of Steinberg. How could he just let things go just because Bryce had said that he had been impulsive? "Mr. Compton, my grandson is young and ignorant. Please don't hold it against him." Declan had no choice but to speak up and apologize to Larys on Bryce's behalf. Larys could only nod. He smiled slightly and said, "Forget about it. Make sure that it doesn't happen again."Once everyone was seated once more, Bryce continued staring viciously at Sebastian. It was all Sebastian's fault that he had been slapped twice by Declan!He couldn't just let him go, but he didn't dare to cause any more trouble at the dinner table. Howeve

    "People always say that you can see what a person is like from looking at their family. I can see that it's true," Sebastian said impassively.That was a harsh insult to Declan. It implied that Bryce's rude behavior was a reflection of Declan's lack of good character, and that their family didn't have good manners.Declan turned purple with rage. Ever since he had become one of the esteemed members of the Healer Sect, everyone in the martial arts community always spoke respectfully to him, especially those of the traditional medicine community. All of them were polite whenever they met him.However, Sebastian had insulted him thrice in a row, and each insult was worse than the last. Rosalie couldn't help but laugh. She leaned on Sebastian's shoulder and turned her head away, her slender figure trembling with the effort of not laughing out loud."You're terrible! You've insulted them so slyly!" Rosalie whispered in Sebastian's ear.Sebastian reached out to put an arm around her t

    Sebastian's expression turned cold at once. What was so important about an elder of the Healer Sect? Was there any reason for him to make so many people wait?Besides, the banquet had been set at 9:00 pm, and both he and Rosalie had arrived on time. Why should Declan be treated differently?Sebastian had never had any patience with people who used their age as an excuse to do whatever they wanted to."Forget it. Calm down, both of you, and let's both refrain from saying anything else."Larys stood up quickly to smooth things over. Both Sebastian and Julian remained silent out of respect for him. However, they both exchanged icy looks.Now that the conflict had subsided, Larys leaned closer to Sebastian and whispered, "Mr. Ballard, I'll be honest with you. I can't afford to offend either you or Mr. Byrne. Please help me out and refrain from pursuing this matter further."Larys was being sincere. He was in awe of Sebastian's allies, but Declan had equally powerful allies supporting

    Upon hearing Rosalie's words, Sebastian laughed wryly and shook his head.The Nine Sects wouldn't dare to say a thing to the Ballard Estate, who in turn thought nothing of the Healer Sect.Andreas snorted in laughter and said, "If you had said so 100 years ago, even I would have had to concede. However, times have changed now.""What do you mean?" Rosalie looked curiously at Andreas. It seemed that Sebastian's cousin was very familiar with the Healer Sect. "About 12 years ago, they went on the wrong path. If you check thoroughly, you'll probably find that the development of many new medicines was related to the Healer Sect. However, they are not the refiners!"Rosalie seemed to be deep in thoughts. Her brow darkened as she said thoughtfully, "Do you mean to say that the Healer Sect has abandoned the art of medicine and has decided to go in the direction of the art of pill refining instead?"This made Andreas see Rosalie in a different light.Medicine and pill refining were very

    "Are you talking about your cousin? He doesn't look like a businessman at all, though. He looks more like…"Rosalie put her chin in her hands, her brow tightly furrowed. However, she couldn't find an appropriate way to describe Andreas.He felt very strange to Rosalie. There was a kind of energy he had that was difficult to express in words. "It doesn't matter whether he's a businessman or not. He just has to have money. Why don't we discuss it with him tomorrow? I think he'll probably support you unconditionally," Sebastian said confidently."Really? But if we develop a similar medicine, won't we be going against the Croydons? That doesn't seem right."Lorcan was a friend of Oliver's, after all. That meant that he was a friend of the Griffins. Rosalie didn't want to make such an important family their enemy in business. "With that contract, we have to show the Croydons that they shouldn't become ungrateful, nor should they use their force against us!" Sebastian exclaimed in a
