Besides, she would only end up hurting herself."Don't forget, Whit, Sebastian is here as a competitor tonight. So technically, the both of you are enemies," Theresa reminded her.Whitney frowned at that, and she had a complicated expression.After a while, she sighed and declared, "I know, but I still want to explain myself to him properly."Crystal panicked and tried to talk Whitney out of her decision, "Winnie! Don't do…""That's enough, Mom," Whitney interrupted. "I also want to ask him why he beat up Dante."After that, Whitney marched resolutely to Sebastian as she called out for him.Sebastian frowned when he heard her and turned to face her. "Yes, Ms. Sutton?" he asked coolly."I have something to talk to you about. Can we talk over there for a second," Whitney asked as she side-eyed Rosalie."Rosalie really was radiant tonight," she thought begrudgingly."There's no need. You can say what you need to say here. After all, we're all acquaintances here," Sebastian repli
Inside the venue, Fergus was already seated in the VIP seating area. When he saw Whitney's sour expression, he immediately got to his feet."Winnie, what's wrong? Why do you look so upset? Who bullied you?" he asked with a smile."Nothing happened," Whitney answered coldly.Crystal, who had been walking after Whitney, broke into a wide grin when she saw Fergus."Fergus! You're here!" she exclaimed."Mrs. Mendez," Fergus greeted courteously with a smile. After that, he turned to Whitney to say, "Winnie, I've already made arrangements for you.""Arrangements? What arrangements?" Whitney asked in confusion.Fergus straightened his suit as he explained proudly, "I've talked to the assistant director. They will give more screen time to Henry, so she'll get more recognition!"Besides, I've also told him to pan the camera to you. So, all you need to do is flash a smile and wave," he said with a smug grin, waiting for Whitney to compliment him.Whitney raised an eyebrow. She wasn't
"That's right Ms. Sutton, we should stay away from people like him!" Mabel added as she glared distastefully at Sebastian.Whitney frowned as she watched Sebastian walk over to them. She thought that he would apologize for what happened outside, but to her surprise, Sebastian didn't even look her way and walked right past her to the backstage."Bastard!" Whitney grumbled as she glared at him."You see, he doesn't care about you," Theresa said.Whitney knew what Theresa was trying to say, and her expression darkened further. Eventually, she got up and declared, "I'm going to the bathroom."…Inside the rest area, Rosalie asked worriedly, "How confident are you? After all, you're the first competitor! Why don't I talk to the production team, and you use the formula the professional medicine formulators have given you?""There's no need. I've got it under control," Sebastian assured her mildly. As he spoke, he glanced at the red plastic bag next to him. The medicinal furnace he
Whitney also turned and left after that. A while later, she went to Henrietta's resting area with Mabel."How are the preparations going?" Whitney asked.Henrietta smiled and said confidently, "I'm sure there won't be any problems."Whitney nodded and turned to the screen in the resting area. The screen showed the live stream, and the host was currently introducing the mentors and guest judges.The four mentors and the four guest judges were already seated backstage.The production team had done a great job keeping the identities of the four mentors and guest judges secret, and the crowd went wild when their identities were revealed.The four mentors were professors within the Steinberg traditional medicinal organizations. Namely, they were Roberto Lancel, Theon Smith, Robb Gomez, and the chairman of the traditional medicine organization, Eddard Cosgrove.The rules of the competition were simple.Like a talent show, each judge had a button they could press, and the competit
Justin's humor and personality further boosted his popularity, and he now had millions of fans.He was so popular and beloved that the price for a single ticket to his concert went for a thousand dollars!The four guests were clearly invited to get more people to talk about the competition, and as expected, the Good Crestborne Doctors program had gone viral!The livestream also went from tens of thousands of viewers to millions of viewers!"Oh My God! It's Justin Beaver!""My God! I thought this was a boring show, but I can't believe they managed to invite such cool mentors and celebrities! The production cost for this program must be insane!""I heard that it costs a few hundred thousand dollars for Angelica to appear as a guest on a show!""No fucking way! The mentors and guests invited are too amazing! The program tonight is going to be epic!""These competitors are so lucky to have our idols critique them…"The competition venue was filled with a cacophony of excited whisp
Zayn took a seat behind the cameras as he has done countless times. Meanwhile, Zeke and a few other leaders of Steinberg sat in the specialized VIP section.The competition tonight was an incredibly important event for Steinberg. After all, the competition was a perfect opportunity to showcase both Steinberg and traditional medicine. As Steinberg Pharma's chief director, Zeke had a heavy burden to bear if the competition did not do well."Mr. Winslow, the first contestant is a man named Sebastian Ballard. He's incredibly skilled in medicine, and it only took him one session to cure me of my chronic illness!" Zeke said to a man dressed in a black suit next to him with a grin. He continued, "Sebastian even cured Mr. Griffin Senior and Mr. Whitaker Senior's illness as well. So, his medicinal skills are truly impressive! If you have any chronic aches and pains, I can arrange for him to do a check-up!"The man Zeke spoke to was Timothy Winslow, Steinberg's Chief Administrative Office
Sebastian didn't respond to their disparaging comments and simply shook his head, showing how he really felt about their comments.That small motion didn't go unnoticed by the livestream audience, and the comments started to roll in again."Jaime has such a vicious tongue! Keep those comments coming!""Sebastian does look very plain. I even thought he was some farmer who had mistakenly walked onto stage!""Could he be part of an elaborate prank by the organizers to create some buzz for the competition?""So this is the Good Crestborne Doctor competition? What a joke! I can't believe they would let someone like him on stage. Since he can be on stage, does that mean my vet neighbor can also be a contestant?"In the arena, the host explained the flow of the first round of the competition and what was to be expected from the contestants.The competition and its rules were simple. It was a medicine formulation competition. The contestants had to formulate medicine based on the pres
One of the mentors had turned off their light for him, which was the equivalent of the mentor not allowing him to move on to the next round!The director group, the onsite audience, and the livestream audience were stunned."OMG! One of the lights has already been turned off? That's too quick!""Serves him right! That idiot wanted to get attention, but I bet he didn't expect to offend one of the mentors!""I can't believe he went on stage with a plastic bag, what a joke!""Is this a comedy program? Is this contestant a comedian? I can't believe he actually went on stage like that. Does he want to get disqualified?"The discussion within the livestream audience was heated.Whitney had also buried her face in her hands when she saw Sebastian walk on stage with the plastic bag, overcome by embarrassment."Winnie, look! That idiot Sebastian really is shameless! Thank God the both of you are divorced or you would be made fun of as well!" Crystal snickered."How hilarious! Does he r
