Chapter 1660

Author: Wendell Mayhew
Sebastian had just left the room when he heard Rupert's roar of fury behind him.

Leopold's gaze swept coldly over Rupert. He huffed quietly and turned to rush out of the room and go after Sebastian.

As Rupert watched Sebastian and Leopold walk off, he clenched his fists tightly and ground his teeth.

Those two charlatans had just left him there! He could not endure such treatment!

At that thought, Rupert turned and said to a black-clad bodyguard behind him, "Send someone to investigate that Ballard's background. I'd like to see if that cocky young brat can withstand my wrath!"

"Yes, sir!" The black-clad bodyguard answered before going off to carry out his orders.

Leopold soon caught up with Sebastian. "Mr. Ballard, please don't misunderstand. I didn't accept the Astro International case for money. It's just that people kept dying on that construction site. I couldn't stand seeing any more innocent workmen die tragically, so I—"

Sebastian nodded slightly. From the way Leopold h

    Sebastian took less than 30 minutes to complete the interview. The middle-aged man who had come to apply for the job of factory director was named Brock Harley. He had extensive experience in management and had also brought up several constructive suggestions of his own. After Sebastian studied the proposals that Brock had submitted, he immediately made a decision and told Brock to start work at the factory that very afternoon. Brock thanked Sebastian profusely and tidied his things up before rushing over to the Northside pharmaceutical factory at once.Before Sebastian left, he called Seth Friar at the factory and told him briefly about Brock before heading to the convenience store.The moment he entered, Whitney hurried up to him and asked, "Sebastian, how did the interview go? Does Brock have the qualifications of a director?"Sebastian handed Brock's résumé to Whitney and said, "He used to manage a large pharmaceutical company in another state, and he also suggested a few

    Upon seeing Whitney staring nervously at him, Sebastian told her everything that Drew had said.When she heard that Shannon was still missing, Whitney breathed out a long sigh of relief. For Sally and her family, no news was good news. At least it was better than hearing that Shannon had been one of the dried corpses."Sebastian, I think I need to tell Uncle Nelson the news personally. I won't stay over tonight," Whitney said, watching Sebastian's reaction closely. When Sebastian only nodded impassively, Whitney smiled wryly and turned to go and pack her things inside the room.In the past, Sebastian would definitely have asked if she needed him to go with her. At the very least, he would have shown her more concern. However, he really only treated her like a business partner now, being all aloof and impassive.After watching Whitney's car drive off, Sebastian exhaled and turned to go to his inner room. "My lord…" Nina suddenly called out hesitantly to him.Sebastian turne

He hugged him affectionately and said, "I congratulate you in advance for your success, Mr. Whitehall."Ethan burst into laughter and said, "Thank you for those kind words, Jensen."Realizing that he had been ignored completely, Hans balled up his fists and gritted his teeth. "If it wasn't for the fact that I don't want to affect Mr. Ballard's reputation, I'd bring my men over to chop him into pieces right now!"Beside him, Theodore rolled his eyes. His brow furrowed as he asked, "Hans, do you know who he is?""Who?"Theodore looked somber as he said, "He's the notorious Jensen Donovan, known for being bold enough to trick even the Rothblends! It's said that his riches are equal to that of a nation, and the Donovans actually have several world-renowned assassin organizations on their payroll."Hans brok

    "Are you certain you want to make such an extreme choice?" Sebastian asked one last time. He wanted to see if Whitney would show any signs of reluctance.Unfortunately, he did not detect even a trace of hesitation in Whitney's expression."We're not right for each other. Let's just go in and finalize the divorce. I'll do my best to meet all of your demands. Even after we've gotten divorced, we can still remain friends," Whitney bit her lip and offered after thinking about it.They could remain friends, huh?Sebastian laughed at Whitney's response. Tears trickled out of the corner of his eyes.It turned out that despite being married for three years, the relationship had been entirely one-sided. He was the presumptuous one.In her eyes, he was merely a stepping stone."Fine. I'll go through with the divorce! I don't need your money, the car, or the house. I can support myself!" Sebastian stubbornly declared."You're going to support yourself with that little shop of yours where

    Whitney had just gotten out of the car when she heard what the young woman said to Sebastian. Her expression soured.Be it looks or physique, the gorgeous young woman was just as attractive as Whitney—and she drove a Ferrari.Whitney's chest tightened.When had Sebastian become acquainted with a woman like her?The young woman looked to be in her early 20s, which made her about five or six years younger than Whitney.Whitney immediately felt jealous.Mabel had gotten out of the car too. The sight before her made her frown."I'm sorry, but who are you?" Sebastian asked as he studied the young woman in front of him.She was a young and beautiful woman. Still, he had no idea who she was."Mr. Chester Sinclair recommended you to me, Dr. Ballard. My name is Rosalie Griffin. He said that you have the Goldcrow pill. It is the only thing that can save my grandfather. "My family, the Griffins, are willing to buy it from you for ten million dollars!" Rosalie pleaded tearfully."Chest

    Over in Rosalie's car, Sebastian had just found out who she was. She was a part of the Griffins of Janover.Sebastian's brows creased slightly. If not mistaken, the Griffins were the juggernauts of Janover. Every move they made could rock the entire city.If Whitney had been in the car as well, her jaw would have dropped in shock.The Griffins of Janover, the family she desperately wanted to form an association with, were seeking help from Sebastian, the useless man she'd just divorced.Soon, the car stopped outside a residential compound.Once they got out of the car, Rosalie hastily brought Sebastian into one of the bedrooms.A sickly old man lay on the bed. All the color had drained from his face. Even his lips were purplish. Every breath he took seemed to drag on forever. It was as if he were a dying candle flickering in the wind.A middle-aged man and a doctor stood beside the bed. Dressed in linen, the doctor was inserting acupuncture needles into Rosalie's grandfather, Ol

    "Mr. Ballard, let me make the introductions. This is Rupert Lannister. He's the CEO of Astro International in Sunway, and he's also the richest man in Sartvale."The middle-aged man looked rather proud when he heard Leopold's introduction. As the richest man in Sartvale, he was always the center of attention no matter where he went. He was the person whom people always tried to curry favor with.He felt that although he had a favor to ask of Leopold, Sebastian would behave obsequiously to him just like all the other geomancers did.However, unexpectedly, Sebastian only gave him an impassive nod. He didn't even shake hands with Rupert before sitting down in the seat opposite him.Rupert's brow furrowed, and he looked at Sebastian in displeasure.Was Sebastian expecting Rupert to take the initiative in greeting him?Leopold turned quickly and gestured toward Sebastian. He looked reverential as he said, "Mr. Lannister, this is the man I mentioned to you yesterday. "He's Mr. Ballar

    Oliver's gaze swept over the title deed, and he sighed deeply.Haltona Gate was one of the most valuable areas in Draepolis, where every bit of land was expensive. However, could Sebastian's wrath be assuaged with that title deed?Even Oliver couldn't help shaking his head. Despite this, he took the title deed and said, "Alright, I'll take it on Mr. Ballard's behalf. As for how he will answer, I can't guarantee anything.""Thank you, Mr. Griffin Senior." Despite what Oliver had said, Blake still thanked him. After apologizing profusely to Rosalie once more, he left.As Oliver watched Blake walk off, he sighed and said, "Rosalie, call Sebastian later and explain this to him. If he refuses to forgive the Warrior League, there's nothing we can say. After all, this martial arts battle had nothing to do with him to begin with. The Warrior League really did cross the line here."However, it would be best if Sebastian could agree to Madam Dragon's suggestion. It would be like having dual

    When Derek and the others had gone, Gary said through gritted teeth, "Madam Dragon, Derek is clearly trying to take over your position! Why didn't you let me finish just now? "Besides, we have an agreement with Mr. Ballard! Now that we've gone back on our word, what will he think of us?"There was a cold gleam in Belinda's eyes, and she said thoughtfully, "I can see that Derek is disloyal. However, now isn't the time to clear our ranks yet."We are on the cusp of a great battle, and the Warrior League won't be able to withstand an internal conflict. Instead of fighting with Derek and the others, we might as well stabilize him temporarily. As for Sebastian, I have a solution for that!"She yawned and added, "I'm tired. Let's get some rest, everyone."Belinda turned and went into the back rooms. Gary and the others exchanged looks. They all sighed in resignation.As Belinda had said, Derek had built up his influence over many years. He had many close contacts in the Warrior League

    As they spoke, a terrifying energy at the seventh level of the Celestial realm rose up abruptly around Frederick and Grant. Belinda, Gary, and the others were startled to feel the formidable pressure coming from them.A few months ago, they had both still been stuck at the fifth level of the Celestial realm, unable to achieve any further breakthroughs. How had they gotten to such a high level of training in just the blink of an eye?Everyone there was immediately filled with doubts, but both Frederick and Grant had been recommended personally by Derek. They probably wouldn't be a threat to the Warrior League. Belinda thought deeply for a moment before she said with a serious expression, "Mr. Chesterton, we asked Mr. Ballard to help us after I had a discussion with a few elders. About this—""Madam Dragon, please consider the reputation of the Warrior League. We object to allowing Sebastian to participate in this martial arts battle in the name of the Warrior League!"
