Chapter 439

Author: Wendell Mayhew
The Carlton family was shaken to its core as the general had returned. A monumental celebration was in order!

Kevin hurried inside from the backyard. Upon entering the living room, he was met with the sight of a tall, imposing middle-aged man standing in the hall. His commanding presence radiated authority and fierceness as he stood there, hands behind his back.

"Lucas! You're finally back…" Tears streamed down Kevin's face.

Lucas Carlton was Kevin's eldest son and the only general in the Carlton family.

He held a prestigious position in the western military district, commanding thirty thousand soldiers. If all went as planned, he would earn another star in the latter half of the year.

By then, the Carlton family would be the undisputed leading family of Sunway!

Lucas turned and quickly helped Kevin to a grand armchair. With a flourish of his cloak, he kneeled on one knee and said, "Father, I have returned."

"Good, get up," Kevin replied, visibly moved.

Lucas quickly rose and

    Lorraine burst into the room and flung herself into Lucas' arms, her voice filled with distress. "Lucas, you must avenge me this time. Catch that scoundrel, and let me torment him thoroughly!"Lucas looked at Lorraine, nodding firmly as he said, "Alright! I promise you, I'll capture that brat and let you have your revenge."Lorraine was pleased with his words. "How are your injuries?" Lucas asked. "They're mostly healed, thanks to Richard from the Hundred Heaven Sect. He gave me a healing pill that sped up my recovery," Lorraine replied.Lucas nodded just as Richard entered the room, exuding an air of wisdom and serenity. He bowed to Lucas. "Greetings, General Carlton."Lucas returned the gesture. "No need for such formality, Mr. Jett. You're a great benefactor to our family. Without you, Lorraine's recovery wouldn't have been so swift."Richard chuckled and said, "General Carlton, you jest. With the relationship between the Hundred Heaven Sect and your family, it was but a sm

    Before anyone inside Frostwave Corporation could grasp the situation, Lucas arrived swiftly outside the company building. Two or three dozen elite soldiers accompanied him. The arrival of the military jeeps caused an immediate stir amongst the company's employees. Why would military vehicles be parked outside the building?Without waiting for the staff's reaction, Lucas swung open the car door. With a flick of his cloak, he commanded, "Seal off Frostwave Corporation, now!""Yes, sir!"The two or three dozen soldiers charged into Frostwave Corporation, swiftly sealing off the building. Every entrance and exit was manned by fully armed soldiers with live ammunition, and no one was allowed in or out.In less than a minute, Frostwave Corporation's executives and shareholders were all detained by several soldiers in the meeting room. At that moment, Lucas stood with his back turned to the executives kneeling on the floor. His gaze was cold and indifferent as he looked through th

    Mabel was so afraid that she stuttered. "Where's Whitney Sutton?" Lucas asked coldly.Mabel was terrified, and her face paled as she replied, "I-I don't know…""Hmm?" Lucas' gaze sharpened. Mabel quickly amended her response, "I-I know, I know! Ms. Sutton should have gone to see Sebastian to discuss the matter with her cousin. Looking at the time, she should be returning to the company soon…"Before she could finish, a figure with a graceful silhouette entered through the door—it was Whitney.When she was downstairs, she noticed the soldiers standing at the entrance. After identifying herself as the CEO of the company, Whitney was allowed inside."I'm Whitney," she declared as she stepped into the room. Whitney cast a glance at the executives kneeling on the floor before turning her gaze to Lucas. She forced herself to appear composed and asked, "I wonder what brings you to our company so unexpectedly? Is there something important you wish to discuss?"Whitney tried to ma

    At Lucas' command, two soldiers quickly stepped forward and escorted Whitney out of the conference room. They took her to a jeep and drove away from Frostwave Corporation. The company's top executives and shareholders stood at the door, visibly shaken. It wasn't until the dozen or so military jeeps had been gone for a while that they dared to wipe the cold sweat from their foreheads and speak. "It's over. It's all over for Ms. Sutton now…" "We've offended the Sunway Carlton family. What's going to happen to the company?" "Quick! Call an emergency meeting!"The group of executives and shareholders hurried back to the conference room for an emergency meeting. Realizing the gravity of the situation, Mabel quickly dialed Sebastian's number.Sebastian was in the convenience store, handling some emerald stones. He was going to refine them into safety stones. Suddenly, his phone rang. Reluctantly, he answered after the persistent ringing. As soon as he did, Mabel's furious

    "Enough, I'm not here to chat. I need you to do something for me," Sebastian said coldly.Draco, clearly annoyed, retorted. "Hey, Sebastian, watch your tone. Call me Commander Kolt! And if you're calling to ask for a favor, shouldn't you start with some pleasantries? Is this how you ask for help?"At that moment, inside the Department of Defense building, in a spacious and brightly lit office, a young man in his mid-twenties sat relaxed in a chair with his legs crossed. He was dressed in a dark green military uniform with a dragon head emblem proudly displayed on his shoulder. His sharp eyes added to his imposing demeanor.Beside him stood two lieutenants, each with three gold stars on their shoulders, standing silently. However, their gazes toward Draco were filled with admiration and envy.After all, the man casually lounging in the chair was one of the newly appointed top five commanders of the Dramon Department of Defense, known as Commander Draco!At just 26 years old, he c

    After Sebastian ended the call, he immediately drove toward the Sunway Carlton family estate.Meanwhile, chaos erupted at the Sutton family home. "What? Winnie was taken?" Crystal nearly fainted upon hearing the news.The day after tomorrow was her daughter's wedding to Fergus, a momentous occasion, and now this catastrophe had struck.Tears streaked Mabel's face as she cried, "You all need to think of something to save Ms. Sutton! It was General Lucas Carlton from the Carlton family who took her.""What? General Lucas Carlton from the Sunway Carlton family?" Edna exclaimed, her eyes widening in shock as she stood abruptly from her chair. Then, as the gravity of the situation sank in, she collapsed into the chair, a look of despair spreading across her face. "It's over. The Sutton family is finished… With that general from the Carlton family involved, do we even stand a chance?"Crystal's face turned pale with fear as she cursed, "It's all that damn Sebastian's fault!

    Lorraine had been waiting for this day for so long!When she thought about how she was tortured because of Whitney, she wanted so badly to skin her and Sebastian alive!Whitney turned toward Lorraine, her eyes brimming with cold defiance. She spat out the blood in her mouth and looked at Lorraine, giving a cold laugh. "Ms. Carlton, do as you please; kill or mutilate me then."Lorraine was intensely irked by Whitney's fearless demeanor.With a sneer, she crossed her arms and circled Whitney twice. Then, bending down to meet Whitney's gaze, she sneered menacingly. "Whitney, do you think I'd let you off so easily by letting you die?"Touching Whitney's cheek, Lorraine smirked. "Oh, the wounds on your face have healed quite quickly. What medicine did you use?"Noticing that Whitney's facial wounds had almost completely healed, leaving no scars, and thinking of her grotesque scars, Lorraine felt a surge of bitterness."I won't tell you!" Whitney retorted stubbornly.Lorraine slapped

    In the living room of the Carlton Manor, Lorraine walked out with an unhappy expression and asked, "Lucas, where is Sebastian?"Lucas took a sip of tea and said, "No worries. I have already put words out. If he still cares about his ex-wife, he'll apologize soon.""Really? That's great! I'll skin him alive then!" Lorraine said through gritted teeth, and her eyes were filled with hatred.If it wasn't for Sebastian, she wouldn't have suffered so much pain! Every time she recalled the things she had gone through, she would get so furious.As the lady of the Carlton family, she had always been loved and spoiled by her family. Nobody had ever treated her this way since she was young, and this remained for over 40 years!However, a stupid brat treated her so badly! Hence, she would avenge herself no matter what!"Where's that woman?" Lucas asked.Lorraine sat down and said, "I put her in the cabin with ten men having fun with her. I even asked them to record everything to release it t

    "My name is Reggie Joston. I'm the leader of Swordfyre Hall in the Wind Dancers. Greetings, Mr. Anton!" Reggie bowed slightly to Anton, and he spoke confidently.The leader of Swordfyre Hall?Anton was secretly surprised. It appeared that he had misunderstood the Wind Dancers. Although Reggie was young, Swordfyre Hall was renowned throughout Boren.He had only made a call, but the Wind Dancers had sent someone who was a leader. Not only that, Reggie was the lead apprentice of the Wind Dancers' sect leader. They were showing the Wentworths plenty of respect.At that thought, Anton smiled quickly and said, "Please sit down, Reggie!"As he spoke, he waved a hand at the butler, gesturing for him to go and prepare tea. Once Reggie was seated, he asked in surprise, "Who would dare to bully the Wentworths when you have such a vast fortune? The messenger told me that you've been provoked by a young man named Sebastian Ballard?"Anton nodded angrily. Although the Lynches were nothing

    Seeing the determination on Sebastian's face, Nina had no choice but to nod and say, "Yes. I will do as you say. However, please allow me to go with you to the entrance of Mount Quiln tomorrow morning before I return to Steinberg, my lord!"Sebastian thought for a moment before he nodded and said, "Alright!"Nina squeezed out a smile when Sebastian gave his permission.After all, she had entered Mount Quiln with Sebastian before. She knew that it was very dangerous on that mountain. Even with Duo as his companion, Sebastian was sure to come across many obstacles on his journey!At that moment, there was a knock on the door. Nina opened it, and when she saw who it was, she informed Sebastian, "My lord, it's Joaquin.""Let him in," Sebastian said impassively. Joaquin walked into Sebastian's room and put on a wide smile as he said ingratiatingly, "Mr. Ballard, you mentioned that you'll be going into the mountains early tomorrow morning. Do you need me to send Mr. Gabbard and the ot

    Sebastian crooked a finger at Jayden, who had gone out of his mind with fear. He was both sobbing and laughing as he went up to Sebastian.Sebastian slapped him.Jayden jolted with the shock, and blood trickled out of the corner of his mouth."Mr. Ballard, I was wrong! Please have mercy on me. After all, I didn't make any major mistakes!" Jayden said, falling to his knees.He didn't want his flesh sliced off until he was a mere skeleton, which was what had happened to Kayden."That slap is a lesson to you. Why can't you just do business properly?" Sebastian asked, frowning slightly."I'll remember this! From now on, I'm going to turn over a new leaf!"Sebastian looked down at Jayden, then waved a hand at him. After all, Jayden hadn't committed any major crimes and didn't deserve to die.Jayden thanked Sebastian profusely before fleeing from the Aequor.Joaquin glanced at Brayden and Darla and said coldly, "Inspector Jefferson, aren't you going to thank Mr. Ballard for not kill

    Javier fell with a thump onto the floor. He stared dazedly as Kayden was tied to a long bench with a rope."Bring in the family members of the victim. Who from the law enforcement hall will carry out the punishment?" Sebastian demanded.He pulled out a silver needle and pierced one of Kayden's acupuncture points, which would make him more alert.When a man in a wheelchair was pushed into the hall by a young woman who looked very frail, Sebastian stood up quickly.He said to the young man, "Kayden is the reason your family's fallen apart. We'll torture him to death very soon.""That asshole! He deserves to be slashed a million times!" the young man yelled at Kayden, clenching his fists tightly."Don't get agitated. He won't die before he gets cut 7,000 times. Although you don't have the right to carry out the execution, you can splash salt water over his wounds!"Sebastian took a bucket from one of the law enforcement hall apprentices and placed it in front of the young man."Se

    At least that man had not had to grovel to the perpetrators to thank them. Not only did Brayden have to grovel to the law enforcement hall men, he even had to thank them!After about four hours, when Kayden had pulled up his pants, he went over to Brayden and said in a slightly ashamed tone, "Inspector Jefferson, I… I had no choice!"He sounded as if he was completely innocent.Brayden wanted to murder him. Just a minute earlier, when Joaquin had called out his name, he had been shaking with excitement. He had even forgotten about the pain of having his crotch injured and lunged toward Darla like a hungry wolf. Now, he was standing in front of Brayden, acting innocent?Brayden had only gotten into this state because of Kayden!After sending away all the reporters, Joaquin sent a message to Sebastian. In less than ten minutes, Sebastian sauntered back into the restaurant. He glanced at Darla, who was lying on the floor with a vacant look in her eyes. Sebastian patted Brayden's sh

    If the incident was broadcast, it would be sure to cause an uproar, and Boren would become the center of the storm.However, Sebastian had made up his mind, and Joaquin didn't dare to try and dissuade him. He had no choice but to do as Sebastian had commanded and call over the news teams from all three states' television stations.Since the head director of a state was calling them personally, none of them dared to refuse. In less than two hours, the news teams from all three state television stations had arrived and were in position."What news are we broadcasting today, Mr. Ballard?" a female reporter asked Sebastian.She had seen how messy the place was, and there didn't seem to be anything for them to report about."Later, these people are going to help a family improve the gene pool, and I need you to broadcast the entire process live. Before you do, please play a recording of a phone call from Inspector Jefferson," Sebastian said. He sent the recording of the phone call

    "Kneel!" Sebastian suddenly yelled.Brayden yelped with fear and fell to his knees."Sebastian, I… I'm a tristate inspector of the Martial Arts Court!"At that point, Brayden's final hope was his authority and position. He didn't want to die, and he especially didn't want to die for no reason.He just wanted to win favor with the ancestral being of the Berkeleys and get some tips on how to get a longer life."Call your wife! I'll give you two hours. If she doesn't come, you'll be tortured to death as well. I can tell you clearly that I'm a doctor, and I have ways to keep you alive until you get slashed 3,600 times with a knife!" Sebastian said icily."I…"Brayden trembled as he pulled out his phone. His mind had gone blank, and it took him a long time to find his wife's phone number. Her name was Darla Wyllis. "Hello? Honey? A handbag caught my eye today, but that stupid store actually refused to give it to me for free! It's a lousy handbag that only costs about 500 thousand d

    Jayden had only gone a few steps, but he had no choice but to stop. He turned and grimaced at the Berkeleys and Brayden, who were all looking in his direction.He was filled with regret. He should have made his escape earlier instead of coming back with Brayden. Egbert and Yorrick were clearly fools. One of them had maimed himself and ended up vomiting blood relentlessly, while the other stood there like an idiot for Sebastian to slap him. He would be surprised if either of them could defeat Sebastian.As everyone was watching him, Jayden had no choice but to return to his previous spot. He looked nervously at Yorrick, praying inwardly that the old man would somehow get more skilled. He couldn't let Sebastian screw him over!"This is the last slap, old man. Do you still have any feeling in your face?" Sebastian asked, raising his palm."Damn you!" Yorrick swore violently. However, one of his front teeth had been knocked out earlier when he was slapped, and air escaped noisily t

    The entire left side of Yorrick's face had become so numb that he couldn't feel a thing."Young man, just now you already hit me—""I only slapped you once!" Sebastian interrupted, holding up a finger.Yorrick spat and said, "How could one slap have made so many noises?"Sebastian replied innocently, "Everyone here can testify that I only hit you once, and I did it very slowly too. You all saw it, didn't you?"The onlookers nodded quickly, especially the experts from the law enforcement hall. They still couldn't figure out how an expert at Yorrick's level could have been sent flying through the air by a weak slap like that from Sebastian.What puzzled them the most was that Yorrick had clearly landed in a very safe spot. Why had he insisted on rolling into a pile of broken glass and gotten such a gaping wound on his face?"Fine!" Yorrick clenched his teeth and suppressed the pain in the right side of his face. "There are still two moves left!" he said viciously."Will you com
