It was Dahlia. "Mr. Cobb, you can keep the treatment fare," she said. "My grandpa said he didn't cure Ms. Sutton, so he won't accept it. Also, don't ever find him anymore in the future."Dahlie tossed the cash on the table and turned to leave.When she was leaving the ward, she turned to Whitney. The woman was kneeling on the floor, looking confused. "Ms. Sutton, I heard everything you said just now. Too bad, you've misunderstood your ex-husband."With that, she left.Whitney was stunned, as well as the rest of them in the ward.They knew that they had messed up this time.Fergus' face turned pale, but he quickly reacted and said, "Is this girl complaining that I gave her too little? How dare she say such things. Um, Winnie, you rest well. I'll go out and check." He tried to slip away, taking advantage of the situation. Crystal also hurriedly said, "Um, Fergus, I'll accompany you outside. What's Dr. Caesar up to, sending his granddaughter here to talk nonsense?"Seeing t
"What's the point? In your eyes, I'm just a liar through and through," Sebastian said coldly. He was thoroughly disappointed. The feeling of not being trusted was the worst, especially coming from Whitney, the woman he had lived with for three years."I…" Whitney hesitated, feeling anxious. She grabbed Sebastian's hand, urgently saying, "It's all my mom's doing. Besides, you never explained fully, either. You always say half of it and then leave. How can I trust you?"Sebastian's expression changed at her words. He turned his head, his gaze incredibly serious as he said bitterly, "So, it's my fault? Because I didn't explain enough?""No… that's not what I meant," Whitney hurriedly tried to explain.Sebastian shook off Whitney's hands and said coldly, "Ms. Sutton, there's no need for further explanation. Regardless of how your mom and others deceived you, you ultimately still believe them."In truth, you know it yourself. From the bottom of your heart, you never chose to trust
Whitney was taken aback. She slowly lifted her head to gaze into the distance as she wiped away her tears. Sighing, she stood up with a vacant look in her eyes and said, "I know."In her heart, Whitney understood how disappointed and resolute Sebastian looked when he left. It was as if each gaze was a knife stabbing her heart.She also knew that she and Sebastian could never go back to how things were before. In the past, she pursued success in her career, aiming to become the queen of the Steinberg business world. That was why she had let go of many things. But since the divorce, Whitney found that she couldn't seem to let go of Sebastian."What you need to do now is to pursue your dreams." Theresa reminded her.Tears glistened in Whitney's eyes as she replied, "I know. I want some time alone."With that, Whitney turned and walked away, riding the elevator alone to the hospital's rooftop.…Meanwhile, back in the ward, everyone was growing increasingly anxious.Upon return
After sitting for a while, Sebastian stood up, ready to leave the shop.However, the old man suddenly took out a document and threw it to Sebastian. "Take a look at this. I've found new clues about your mother." Sebastian was taken aback as he quickly opened the document and scanned it briefly.The old man continued calmly, "After your mother was driven out of the Ballard family, she came to Steinberg, but we don't know why. "My people found out that there was a group of people who once tried to kill your mother, saying she had something on her that shouldn't be brought out."Sebastian frowned, his expression changing drastically. A cold air emanated from him as he asked, "Who tried to kill my mother?""We haven't found out yet," the old man replied, shaking his head.Sebastian frowned, gripping the document tightly. He said coldly, "When you find out, inform me immediately.""You should focus on solving your current problems first."Sebastian sighed, knowing exactly what he
Sebastian frowned as the other party directly presented the collaboration proposal. "If you transfer the rights to this mask, we offer 50 million upfront! Additionally, you'll receive a ten percent profit share and annual dividends. "Based on our initial calculations, Mr. Ballard, you won't have to do anything and could earn a billion annually. If you prefer not to transfer, we can collaborate instead. "Zenith Pharmaceuticals will handle promotion and sales, offering you a 30% profit share. We estimate that you'll receive 70 to 80 million annually."Transferring for a billion or collaborating for seventy to eighty million was indeed a lucrative offer. For most people, it would be extremely tempting, considering Zenith Pharmaceuticals' market share in Steinberg. It meant earning money without doing anything, essentially achieving financial freedom.However, Sebastian refused. "I'm sorry, but I won't transfer or collaborate."The man on the phone sounded anxious. "Mr. Ballard,
At Frostwave Corporation, Whitney sat in her office as Mabel burst in excitedly, her face flushed with enthusiasm. "Ms. Sutton, our mask sales have topped the charts! We've doubled the sales of the second-ranking product!"Mabel was ecstatic, brimming with excitement.With this momentum, the mask developed by Frostwave Corporation could potentially overshadow all other skincare products on the market, solidifying its unshakable position in the skincare industry!Whitney glanced at the data, and a confident smile spread across her lips. "Increase the promotion and advertising efforts. Let's aim to make it onto the national bestseller list within three days!"This bestseller list held immense prestige in the skincare industry. Any product that made it onto this prestigious list would reap enormous profits in the market.And, to put it bluntly, it would usher in a new era in skincare."It's already been arranged," Mabel replied with a smile.Whitney nodded approvingly at Mabel's ef
It meant that out of ten people who had tried the Arctic Snow Mask, nine had purchased it. It was an unprecedented purchase rate!Even the face mask developed by Frostwave Corporation, currently ranked first, had only achieved a 60% purchase rate! Yet, even with this 60% rate, it surpassed the second-place product, which had a 30% purchase rate!Ben took a deep breath, feeling his blood boiling with excitement. He knew that with such a purchase rate, Arctic Snow Mask would inevitably climb into the top five or even the top three! Aspiring to be number one and surpassing Frostwave Corporation was not an overstatement.At that moment, his subordinate had run over and whispered, "Sir, the blackmail material is ready. When should we release it online?"Ben frowned and thought it over for a moment. He glanced at the USB drive in his subordinate's hand. "Let's wait for now. You and I will visit this Rosé Corporation and do our best to secure the distribution rights for Arctic Snow Mask
"You can take it as a friendly reminder. After all, in Steinberg's pharmaceutical industry, there are only a few reputable and influential companies. "Collaborating with Zenith Pharmaceuticals will be beneficial for you and your company, without a doubt," Ben said casually, his tone carrying a hint of coercion.Upon hearing this, Sebastian chuckled and replied, "I'm afraid you will be disappointed. I dislike being threatened the most. I've already understood your intentions. Please leave." Ben was immediately infuriated. Slamming the table, he stood up and rebuked, "Mr. Ballard! Refusing our offer is like spurning a toast and inviting a curse! Remember, in Steinberg, crossing paths with Zenith Pharmaceuticals leads to no good end!""I'm surprised that even after two years, Zenith hasn't changed its ways," Sebastian retorted coldly, his tone tinged with sarcasm."What do you mean, Mr. Ballard?" Ben's expression darkened, his dissatisfaction evident. "Are you familiar with Zenith?
