"Don't try to talk me out of it. I'm just using my own recipe," Sebastian said.Rosalie was helpless, and she nodded. "Alright then."Then, she said with a smile, "There's still time before the competition. What are you planning to do later?""Probably look around in the traditional medicine shops. I wanna get some medicine."After calculating the time, the poison in Sebastian's body might appear in the next two weeks. Before it happened, he wanted to concoct a specific pill to suppress the poison.Plus, he also wanted to gather some medicinal herbs and refine more Navitas pills, as well as other pills. After his recent breakthrough in strength, Sebastian felt confident enough to refine other pills as well. Even some of the martial arts and arcane arts taught to him by his masters could now be studied.Sebastian was someone who sought stability. Without reaching the corresponding level of strength, he wouldn't take risks. Now, with the fourth level of Energy Refining Techniqu
Mabel nodded and left the CEO's office. Returning to her own office, she scrutinized the sales data and noticed the explosive growth of Sebastian's Arctic Snow Mask. At this rate, it could actually surpass the company's facial mask. She couldn't allow it to happen. Absolutely not!After some careful consideration, Mabel tidied up her things and grabbed her bag. She was heading straight to Sebastian's small shop. Regardless, she had to give it a try. If necessary, she would take a more aggressive approach!Mabel arrived at the shop just as Sebastian and Rosalie were about to leave. When she saw Rosalie, her expression changed slightly. Sebastian also noticed Mabel getting out of her car and raised an eyebrow, teasingly saying, "Well, well, look who's here! What brings the esteemed Ms. Lucero down to my humble abode?"Mabel frowned and glanced at Sebastian before exchanging greetings with Rosalie. Then, she turned to Sebastian and coolly said, "Sebastian, there's something I n
"Let me tell you, you're still far from it!" Mabel said.Her words upset Rosalie, and she retorted, "Ms Lucero, don't you think that's a bit too much?"Mabel rolled her eyes at Rosalie. "Ms. Griffin, I'm not going to say anything much to you because you're part of the Griffin family. But I think I have the right to criticize Sebastian."She continued, "Also, just helping a fellow woman out, don't get too close to men like Sebastian. It's not worth it."Rosalie was furious and said, "That's none of your business."Mabel glanced at Rosalie, not wanting to argue further, then turned to Sebastian. "Think it over, Sebastian. By cooperating with us, you'll gain access to more promotional resources to help your company grow. "Besides, let's not forget, Ms. Sutton is your ex-wife. Do you really need to collaborate with others? No matter how you choose, Frostwave Corporation is your best option."However, Sebastian shook his head indifferently. "Goodbye, Ms. Lucero.""You!" Mabel's exp
"A hundred-year-old snow lily?"Rosalie was puzzled, but she didn't ask too much. She quickly called the owner of Lockwit Traditional Medicine.After hanging up, Rosalie exclaimed happily. "Mr. Ballard, they have one snow lily in stock, and it's a hundred years old!"Sebastian was indeed delighted when he heard that, and Rosalie stepped on the gas.…Whitney brought Crystal and Dante to Lockwit Traditional Medicine, and she was parking their car."Mom, are you sure that expert can cure Ms. Hanson?" Whitney asked, concerned.Although Brad kept apologizing to her all night, Whitney knew that the Hanson family wouldn't just let the matter rest. If they could cure Louis, it might ease the trouble between her and the Hanson family."Do you really think I would lie to you?" Crystal retorted, raising an eyebrow at her. Dante chimed in and said, "Winnie, don't worry. I've met that master before, and he's really amazing! I've personally witnessed him heal someone's broken hand!""Rea
Dante chuckled and patted Harvey on the shoulder. "Mr. Harmon, you're a sensible man. Please bring out the snow lily."Mr. Harmon smiled and went to the back room, returning with a square wooden box. Upon opening it, the delightful fragrance of the snow lily filled the air."This is the snow lily," Harvey said with a smile.Crystal wasted no time and boldly presented her card. "Swipe it!"Whitney frowned slightly, feeling uneasy about her mother and brother's actions. It felt like they were seizing the opportunity without considering the consequences.However, realizing the urgency of the situation with Louis needing the snow lily, she reluctantly accepted the course of action. She planned to compensate the original buyer later.But just as Harvey was about to process the payment, a shrill voice echoed from the entrance. "Wait! We clearly reserved this snow lily. Why are you selling it to them?!"The group turned to look and saw a man and a woman walking in. It was Sebastian and
As Dante's words trailed off, Rosalie's hand swiftly met his cheek with a resounding slap. The sound echoed loudly, filling the store. Dante was stunned. His eyes widened as he stared at Rosalie. His cheek stung from the impact.It took Dante a moment to react, his pupils constricted, his face flushing red as he roared, "How dare you lay a hand on me? You bitch, do you even know who I am? I swear I'll…"Dante was furious. It was the first time a woman had publicly slapped him—a great shame for a man of his stature."And do you know who I am?" Rosalie retorted coldly, tossing her hair with an air of undeniable pride."I don't care who you are!" Dante was about to slap Rosalie when Whitney shouted anxiously, "Stop!" Then, she grabbed his arm.Dante paused, turning to Whitney with a whine, "Winnie, what are you doing? This vile woman hit me!"However, Whitney also swung her hand, delivering a slap to Dante's face. She coldly commanded, "Leave!""Winnie, why did you hit me?!" Dant
Whitney frowned and glanced at the snow lily on the table. Before she could say anything, Crystal hurriedly said with a smile, "Very well, Ms. Griffin, we'll give you the snow lily."Following suit, Dante chimed in with a forced smile, "Yes, yes, it's all yours."Rosalie chuckled lightly and headed toward the counter, reaching out to take the snow lily. However, Whitney suddenly raised her hand, her fair fingers pressing firmly on the box. With a hint of firmness in her tone, she said, "Ms. Griffin, I'm sorry, but Mr. Harmon has already sold the snow lily to us."In that fleeting moment, Whitney made a bold decision. She refused to let go! She refused to lose to Rosalie, especially not with Sebastian present!Upon hearing this, Rosalie's eyebrow raised in displeasure as she questioned, "Ms. Sutton, do you know what you're saying?"Crystal and Dante beside her grew anxious. Initially, they hadn't wanted to yield, but now that they knew Rosalie's identity, they dared not compete.
"Mr. Ballard, did I do something wrong?" Rosalie asked, sounding guilty. Sebastian chuckled. "No."Then, they left Lockwit Traditional Medicine after Rosalie bought the snow lily.…Whitney returned to the company, standing angrily by the floor-to-ceiling window as she glared at Rosé Corporation across the street. "Sebastian! You jerk!" she cursed under her breath. Crystal and Dante followed her in, both sitting on the sofa with sour expressions."Winnie, what's the deal with Ms. Griffin? How did she end up with that jerk, Sebastian?" Crystal asked, clearly perplexed.Dante, equally disgruntled, rubbed his cheek and muttered, "And I got slapped! Damn it! Just thinking about it makes me furious! She's just some lady from the Griffin family, what's with all the pretense!"Whitney turned toward them, glowering at Dante. "Could you tone it down a bit?"Dante grimaced. He looked frustrated as he asked, "Winnie, what's the deal with that useless guy? How did he end up with the G
