Use Sebastian? Whitney's expression shifted, showing reluctance. Despite the state of their current relationship, they had been married for three years. The thought of using Sebastian in such a manner left Whitney feeling uneasy.Seeing Whitney hesitate, Mabel quickly said. "Ms. Sutton, you mustn't hesitate any longer. Just think about what Sebastian said on stage earlier. Every word was aimed at you, wasn't it? "And now, with Ms. Griffin by his side, if you continue to be indecisive like this, I'm worried Sebastian will truly surpass you one day."As Mabel spoke, Whitney frowned, her demeanor turning cold.Theresa chimed in, seizing the opportunity, "Whitney, on this matter, I choose to support Ms. Lucero."I told you when I returned from abroad that I came back to assist you. I'll eliminate anyone who stands in your way of success, including your ex-husband."Whitney frowned. She gave it some thought before releasing a sigh. "Mabel, please go ahead and prepare," she said."
Sebastian's pill surpassed hers in potency twofold! It was daunting! Was this truly his prowess? In that fleeting moment, Henrietta couldn't shake off a sense of melancholy. She couldn't help but feel leagues behind him. The title of being the rising star of the Steinberg medical world suddenly felt bitterly ironic.With a heavy heart, Henrietta exited the stage and found her way to the dressing room. Upon her arrival, Mabel greeted her with excitement. "Henry, join me for a press conference later. I've got the statement all set up for you. Just stick to the script.""Okay," Henrietta responded absentmindedly, her thoughts drifting elsewhere.What kind of prescription could Sebastian have concocted to achieve more than double the potency? Whitney noticed Henrietta's distraction, her brow furrowing slightly as she asked, "What's wrong? You seem off.""Ms. Sutton, how much do you really know about your ex-husband?" Henrietta casually asked as she snapped back to reality.W
Henrietta's unexpected statement sent shockwaves through the entire hall! What was going on? Henrietta actually claimed that her medical skills were inferior to Sebastian's? She couldn't be serious, could she?"I'm baffled! What do you mean, Miss Henrietta?""She's the rising star of Steinberg medical world, a prodigy, and she's saying her skills aren't as good as Sebastian's?""This is madness! She must be out of her mind! Doesn't she realize she's putting Ms. Lucero in a tight spot?"As the murmurs and discussions spread among the attendees, the hall erupted into chaos.Upon hearing Henrietta's words, Mabel's expression mirrored her astonishment. She hurriedly rushed down from the stage, pulled Henrietta aside, and anxiously asked, "Henrietta, do you realize what you just said?""I do." Henrietta nodded calmly.Mabel's face darkened instantly, her tone turning cold. "You need to go back on stage right now and claim that your earlier statement was just a joke. Sebastian's suc
At that time, Mabel didn't even need to do anything for Sebastian's reputation to be ruined completely."Alright, got it. I'll arrange it now." The assistant immediately understood when he heard Mabel's words.Mabel sneered coldly as she looked at the assistant's receding back. She muttered, "Sebastian, let's see if you're still so lucky in the next round of the competition. As long as you mess up once, your reputation will be ruined once and for all!"…Meanwhile, Rosalie and Sebastian left the venue.When they reached the entrance, they bumped into Whitney and Theresa.The four of them looked at each other awkwardly.Sebastian didn't want any further misunderstanding with Whitney, so he said to Rosalie, "Let's go.""Alright." Rosalie nodded and hooked her arm around Sebastian's as they walked to the parking lot.Whitney looked at Rosalie and Sebastian's back, and her lips trembled. She wanted to say some things to him.Theresa knew what Whitney was thinking, so she shook he
Sebastian's expression shifted, and after a moment of hesitation, he sighed with resignation. "You're right. I did hide the truth about my medical skills from you, but it wasn't intentional. I just wanted—""That's enough, don't bother explaining," Whitney interrupted coldly, flicking her hair over her ear. "You don't need to explain anything to me. We're divorced. If you really wanted to explain, you should have done so three years ago!"Upon hearing this, Sebastian furrowed his brow slightly and sighed. He knew Whitney was still angry."Even if I explained, would you believe me?" Sebastian countered, his gaze earnestly fixed on Whitney.Whitney's heart skipped a beat at his question. She turned to face Sebastian directly and stared at him. "You think I wouldn't have believed you?"Sebastian didn't respond, his cold demeanor already deciding his answer."Sebastian! Why would you think I wouldn't? If, and I mean if, you had told me three years ago, would I not have believed you?
"Sebastian's performance tonight was because of his own abilities, not because of me." Rosalie smiled.Whitney, with a slight furrow in her brow, responded, "Is that so? Well, I hope he can continue to prove himself in the upcoming competitions.""He will," Rosalie said with a flick of her hair.With that, the four of them went their separate ways. Sebastian, feeling exhausted, had Rosalie drop him off at Robert's herb store. After a short while, Rosalie left.In the store, Sebastian lay on the bed, unable to sleep. His mind was filled with thoughts of Whitney's words that night.Meanwhile, Whitney lay in her villa, also unable to sleep. She was thinking about Sebastian's words, as well as the scenes of him and Rosalie on stage.Whitney's heartache and anger grew as she thought more about it. That damn bastard!Then, Whitney got up and dragged Theresa to the living room to drink with her. As they drank more, Whitney's inner thoughts began to pour out."Theresa, why, why doesn
Upon seeing the check, Sebastian's expression changed, but he quickly composed himself and replied with a slight smile, "Mrs. Griffin, you've misunderstood. My relationship with Rosalie isn't—" "Is the money not enough for you?" Madison interrupted, her laughter devoid of warmth, as if she saw through Sebastian's tactics and schemes. Mockingly, she continued, "So, how much do you want before you're willing to leave my daughter?"Sebastian frowned, feeling somewhat offended by the implication."Do you think being with your daughter means aiming for her money?" Sebastian asked unhappily.Madison chuckled as if hearing a joke. "Sebastian, I'm an experienced person. I know exactly what's going on in your mind. I know my daughter likes you, but that's not enough for you to speak to me with such confidence and audacity. "The reason I'm sitting here today, face to face with you and trying to discuss and resolve this matter, is because I don't want Rosalie to be angry or upset because
"I can also make you infamous, a pariah that everyone shuns!" Madison said coldly before turning and leaving.Sebastian's face darkened, his brows furrowing as he watched Madison get into her car and drive away. With a sigh, Sebastian reluctantly left the café.Meanwhile, Lorraine Carlton received news that her son, Louis, had been severely injured and even potentially rendered infertile. It prompted her immediate return from abroad to the country.In the ward of Citizen Hospital, adorned in designer labels and exuding a cold demeanor, Lorraine angrily slapped Brad across the face. "Useless! You can't even protect your own son. I must have been blind to marry you in the first place!"Brad remained rooted to the spot with his head bowed, too intimidated to utter a word. Despite being one of the top figures in the Steinberg business world, holding the title of one of the leaders of the pharmaceutical industry, Brad was nothing in the eyes of his wife, Lorraine.Why? Because Lo
