Hans was speechless with shock. He held Amaryllis tightly, trembling all over. How terrifying!Sebastian calmly picked the copper coins up from the floor. He glanced at them, then turned to Hans and Amaryllis. "Everything's fine now," he said. "The cursed energy has dissipated, and the infant spirit that was haunting your villa is gone."Sebastian looked at Amaryllis. As he had expected, her complexion was becoming rosier.Additionally, the grayish tinge on the area underneath her eyes was slowly fading. The room was becoming warmer as well. He could feel warmth spreading through his body. Hans fell to his knees with a loud thump. He prostrated on the ground and said, "Dr. Ballard, you're amazing. You really are an expert! You've opened my eyes today! "I always used to hear about experts in the world, but I've never seen one until today. Please accept this gesture of gratitude!" He bowed deeply. Hans was not very educated. He could only express his gratitude and strong emo
Theresa huffed coldly when she heard him. Then, she turned and got into her car. Before she drove away, she glared at Sebastian and said threateningly, "You'd better think about it carefully. These are very precious opportunities. You had three chances, but now, you only have two left."Sebastian raised an eyebrow and laughed. "Ms. Livington, please stop being so high and mighty. I don't need to beg anyone for anything!"With that, he turned and walked toward the restaurant. Theresa's expression darkened at once. She glared viciously at Sebastian's retreating figure, and her lips curled in disdain. "Pride goes before a fall. Anyone can talk big. I hope that you won't come begging when the time comes!" Theresa stepped on the gas pedal, and with a roar, her sports car shot forward like lightning. A few minutes later, Theresa walked out of the parking lot. She was on the phone. "Don't worry, Whit. I'll make sure that we get the Prosperity Corporation project. I just heard fr
Hans was waiting respectfully for Sebastian inside. When he saw the door open, he hurriedly got up with a smile. "Mr. Ba—"However, what he saw instead was a tall, gorgeous woman who gave off a cold, elegant air. She was a complete stranger to him."Are you in the wrong room, miss?" Hans asked politely. Theresa smiled and stepped forward. She said respectfully, "Hello, Mr. Wagner. My name is Theresa Livington. I'm here as a representative of Frostwave Corporation to discuss a project collaboration with you." Immediately, Hans' expression changed. He sat back down and said, frowning, "Frostwave Corporation? A collaboration with me? How did you find this place?""I have my ways." Theresa smiled and continued, "We haven't collaborated yet, but I believe that we will be collaborating soon."Hans glanced at the door to the room and said coldly, "Ms. Livington, right? I'm sorry, I'm here to entertain an important guest today. If it's about a project collaboration, you may contact t
Sebastian?How could it be him?Was he Hans' important guest?What kind of plot twist was this?"Sebastian, what are you doing here?" Theresa stood up. Surprise was written all over her pretty features. Sebastian glanced indifferently at Theresa. He laughed and said, "Is there a problem?"Hans realized that Theresa and Sebastian knew each other, so he quickly suppressed his anger. He asked doubtfully, "Dr. Ballard, do you know her?"Sebastian nodded and said, "I do know her, but we're not close."These words made Theresa's expression change. However, she thought for a moment and said immediately, "What do you mean? I'm your wife's best friend!"With that, she boldly sat down. Sebastian's expression changed seeing Theresa sit down. "She's my ex-wife now," he reminded her.Theresa rolled her eyes at him and huffed coldly. She looked at Hans, smiled, and said, "Mr. Wagner, please consider the project I mentioned earlier." Hans raised his eyebrows slightly. He glanced at Seb
Wasn't that what a con man would do?Theresa hurriedly called Whitney back. With her brow furrowed, she asked, "Whit, does Sebastian perform superstitions like exorcism?"Whitney was taken aback by the question. She gave it some thought and said, "He can do a bit, I think. He's been obsessed with geomancy for the past two years. That little shop of his was set up so he could tell people's fortunes and help them to change their fortunes through geomancy."She added, "That's why I decided to divorce him. After he became obsessed with that stuff, he changed completely. Why? What did you find out?"Theresa's expression gradually became colder when she heard Whitney's explanation. She said, "I found out that Sebastian cured Mr. Wagner's wife's infertility. However, he did so by doing an exorcism, which is just some superstition…""Exorcism?" Whitney was shocked.She gritted her teeth in anger. "That asshole! How could he trick people that way? If he's discovered, Mr. Wagner will kill
Sebastian frowned.He didn't want to get involved in these conflicts. That would just bring him unwanted trouble.Hans noticed that Sebastian was hesitating, and he became anxious. He fell to his knees at once and groveled at Sebastian's feet. He pleaded, "Dr. Ballard, please help me just this once! In the future, Prosperity Corporation and I will obey your every command." Resigned, Sebastian sighed and said, "Fine. I'll help you just this once. However, I need you to do something for me too."Hans was delighted. He said excitedly, "Dr. Ballard, just say the word! I'll get it done even if I have to go to hell and back!"Sebastian nodded. He smiled calmly and said, "I need you to find something for me, Mr. Wagner.""What is it?" Hans asked.Sebastian told him.Hans was shocked, and he looked doubtful as he asked, "Spiritual stones? What are they? An emerald?"Sebastian shook his head. "It's not an emerald. It's a kind of… just think of it as a medicinal stone. "It's green
The man walked into the room with a majestic and demanding presence.Despite his demanding presence, his footsteps were light, and anyone could tell that he was a martial artist.There were four or five students behind him, all of whom had their arms crossed across their chests arrogantly as they sauntered into the room.Hans didn't seem to mind how arrogant the newcomers were at all and hurriedly motioned for the man he referred to as "Master Zimmer", to take a seat. He smiled as he introduced them, "Dr. Ballard, this is the martial arts expert I mentioned just now. He's the sect leader of the art of Shastia, a type of martial art from Suden, Joseph Zimmer. "He's an Inner Strength Master and is incredibly powerful. He's also ranked as one of the top five martial artists in Suden when it comes to power."Joseph sat down and narrowed his eyes at Sebastian, who was next to Hans. His expression turned to one of disdain. It was clear he didn't think much of Sebastian at all."Mr.
Hans was immediately panicked by Joseph's declaration and quickly rushed to stop him, who had already gotten to his feet, from leaving."Mr. Zimmer, please don't misunderstand. I only asked for Dr. Ballard's help in case there were any other complications. Besides, Dr. Ballard is medically skilled, so if you or any of your students get hurt later, he can help with their injuries!" Hans explained hurriedly.Joseph scoffed coldly and shot Hans a challenging glare as he demanded, "Mr. Wagner, do you think I'll get hurt?"Hans realized that he had misspoken and immediately lowered his head apologetically. "Excuse me, Mr. Zimmer, I misspoke. Please forgive…"Joseph interrupted coldly, "Mr. Wagner, it seems like you still don't understand just how powerful your opponent tonight is! Elliot is no longer the same man from ten years ago. "According to my friend overseas, Elliot's power has increased exponentially, and his sect, Dragon Sect, is also notoriously powerful!"Joseph paused bef
