Whitney slammed her phone on the table. She sighed and said, "I got it. Is there anything else?""Yes."Mabel replied. She retrieved a document from her pocket and uttered in concern, "This is our contract with Turner Starr Corporation. They owe us three months' pay. "If we don't get the money back soon, our company may suffer a loss of over 30 million dollars."Whitney furrowed her eyebrows.Indeed, their contract with Turner Starr Corporation had been bothering her for months.They consistently delayed payments, and Frostwave Corporation had to pay for the funds in advance.Despite several attempts to collect the money, they were always met with various excuses.Whitney was bold but cautious, especially since Turner Starr Corporation was a prominent company in Steinberg and part of a prestigious family.The head of the Turners was known to be ruthless."Find a way to arrange another meeting with their manager. I'll talk to them," Whitney instructed."Alright," Mabel repli
Sebastian had prepared this elixir for Whitney before this.He had anticipated that Whitney might be too busy to have the breakfast he made. So he had prepared these pills just in case.Little did he know that they would come in handy now.Clutching her chest, Whitney opened the drawer with trembling hands and found the bottle. In great pain, she unscrewed the bottle cap. Due to the intense pain in her chest, she accidentally spilled the contents of the bottle on the ground. There were about ten pills.Shivering, she crouched down, picked up one of the pills, and swallowed it.Meanwhile, Sebastian could only hear the sound of pills spilling. The background was noisy. Anxious, he prepared to hail a taxi. He shouted, "Whitney, are you okay? What's happening?"After a while, he could hear Whitney panting. She responded weakly, "I'm ... I'm okay now."Only then did Sebastian heave a sigh of relief.Sebastian himself didn't realize how anxious and nervous he had been just now.
Mabel quickly replied, "Ms. Sutton, we have already taken down all the promotional posts of the Goldcrow Pill. "Following your instructions, we turned the acupuncture techniques that Sebastian posted online into an official video. We will sell it with the Coldcrow Pill as a set.""Okay." Whitney nodded. Staring at the bottle of elixir in her hand, she seemed somewhat absent-minded.Mabel furrowed her brows slightly and whispered, "Ms. Sutton? Ms. Sutton ... What are you thinking?""Oh, it's nothing."Whitney came to her senses. She smiled and placed the bottle back into the drawer.Mabel asked tentatively, "Ms. Sutton, are you okay? If you're feeling unwell, should we go to the hospital? You shouldn't take these pills randomly.""I'm fine. It's just a medicine Sebastian prescribed for me before." Whitney smiled and sat back down.Hearing this, Mabel frowned. She asked suspiciously, "A medicine Sebastian prescribed you? Ms. Sutton, aren't you worried that there might be somethi
Sebastian hung up and sighed deeply. However, he didn't mull over it and continued cleaning up the mess in his shop. Just then, a Mercedes Benz S-Class stopped outside the entrance. Sebastian frowned as he glanced at the vehicle. A middle-aged man wearing a white tuxedo hurriedly got out of the car. He hurried over with a smile and said, "Sorry to bother you, Mr. Ballard. My friend needs your help.""Hello, Mr. Sinclair. To what do I owe you the pleasure?" Sebastian grinned.Chester brought someone over that day, which meant the person was very important. "Dr. Ballard, this is John Crawford, a professor at Steinberg Medical Association," Chester said. "You can call him Mr. Crawford for short. He's also one of the judges for the medical conference preliminary selection in Steinberg." Beside him was an old man who looked around sixty years old. He was wearing a black tuxedo and had his hands behind his back. "The judge for the medical conference preliminary selection in St
"The cursed pendant has negative energy in it. There's positive energy in my blessed pen that can cleanse that."John had a look of realization after hearing Sebastian's explanation. He said, "I didn't know one could treat an illness this way. I've learned much from you."Dr. Ballard, since you have such extraordinary medical skills, why don't you attend the medical conference preliminary selection in Steinberg?"He added, "If you attend it, you'll definitely wow everyone. Plus, you'll help to promote traditional medicine!"After John left, Sebastian sat in his shop, feeling bored. He kept thinking about what John said to him. "Should I attend the medical conference?" he mused. To be frank, Sebastian wasn't interested in it at all. He didn't seek fame and status. Instead, he preferred a quiet and ordinary life. However, this attitude led his marriage to its end. Whitney thought that he was just a useless man with no ambitions. Just then, Tommy poked his head into Sebastia
Just then, Sebastian remembered that Rosalie belonged to the Griffin family. The medical conference was organized by her family. Even so, there were many sponsors and investors in the event. As such, the Griffin family didn't have the final say. Nonetheless, the Griffins were powerful and had their methods to ensure Sebastian could attend the finals directly. However, he declined. "It's fine, Ms. Griffin. I'll attend the event with my own capabilities. I want to know how skilled I am compared to the others participating in the medical conference.""Oh, I see." Rosalie nodded, falling deeper in love with him. She liked a man who continuously strove to improve himself, like Sebastian. Soon, her car stopped outside the medical conference audition hall. Once inside, Sebastian realized there were many participants in the place. The test for the preliminary selection was simple. There were two patients at the venue. The participants had to use their medical skills to diagnose
Everyone was stunned when they heard John's words. Fergus looked extremely shocked and confused!What was going on?A renowned professor was behaving so politely to the useless Sebastian. What medical skills does Sebastian have? When did he learn those skills?"Mr. Crawford, are you sure you're not mistaken? Does he have any medical skills? How could he pass this audition directly?" Fergus frowned in bewilderment. John turned and said unhappily, "Why? Don't you believe me?"I don't care what happened between the two of you. I've experienced how amazing his medical skills were. He can enter the next round of our selection!"Upon hearing that, everyone started talking among themselves. The participants' whispers filled the area. "Isn't he just a charlatan who specializes in fortune-telling and protection spells?""Yes, how can someone like him have any medical skills?""Is he Mr. Crawford's relative? If he enters the next round, that's one less spot for those who passed th
John was furious. He glared at Fergus and said, "You're Fergus Cobb, right? I'll remember you."However, Fergus wasn't bothered by that. He was certain that Sebastian had no medical skills and tricked John into believing him. As long as he exposed Sebastian and had a proper conversation with John afterward, the issue would be resolved. In fact, John might be happy because Fergus proved that Sebastian was a charlatan. The older man might even help him in the medical field in the future. It was like killing two birds with one stone!Fergus thought, "I'm a fucking genius."However, Sebastian said, "I'm rushing for time. How about this? Why don't you tell the patient to come over? I'll treat his illness on the spot."Everyone was shocked by his words. What did he mean by treating the patient on the spot?Patients at the audition had many illnesses that couldn't be cured easily! In fact, a professional doctor might not even be able to cure them. "Sebastian, what are you sayi
As one of the eight main sects of Yutaria, the Northern Divine Swords could not tolerate the insults and slander of a young man who was barely out of puberty."I don't know who he is, and I'm not interested. If you want to fight, then hurry it up. I haven't even finished eating." Sebastian yawned impatiently.How cocky! He was being extremely arrogant!Wilfred's eyes were bulging with rage. He gritted his teeth as he stared at Sebastian. He was hoping that Sebastian would be chopped up into pieces by Ronaldo!Lexi's lips had turned purple with anger. Where did Sebastian get the confidence to brag like that?How could he be so cocky with Ronaldo? It was no wonder so many people wanted to kill him!"Young man, why don't you just admit your wrongdoings? That old Yutarian man seems pretty formidable!""Yeah, you should live to fight another day! We'll have plenty of opportunities to deal with him in the future. Just waiting for him to die will be an easy victory for you!""Young ma
Caspian was actually very afraid. Although he did not know who Ronaldo was, even Wilfred was kneeling. One could imagine just how frightening Ronaldo must be.How could Sebastian still be chatting and laughing with Caspian as if nothing was happening?Lexi clenched her fists tightly. Even the Bachs had to kneel in front of Ronaldo. How could Sebastian speak to him in that tone?She wanted nothing more than for Ronaldo to kill Sebastian at once!"You're very cocky, young man!" Ronaldo narrowed his eyes and looked coldly at Sebastian.However, he sensed that Sebastian was extremely dangerous—and the woman beside him felt just as threatening.Ronaldo even suspected that he would not be able to last more than one move from that woman!However, the young man's training was a mystery. No matter how much Ronaldo scrutinized him, Sebastian just seemed like an ordinary person who did not know any martial arts.His experience told him that people like that were usually the most dangerous
Wilfred fell to his knees in fear.He was not embarrassed to cower before this man. After all, he was Ronaldo!He was a legend from the Culter Sect of Yutaria. Less than 100 people in Dramon were his equals.He could kill Wilfred in less than ten moves. How could Wilfred not be afraid?Ronaldo walked out and pointed at the wide hall. "Get out here this instant!" "I'm coming! I'm coming!" Wilfred smiled widely and crawled out to the great hall. When Caspian saw how Wilfred was debasing himself, he scoffed and asked Lexi, "Is that how hot-blooded the Bachs are? That was truly eye-opening.""You don't know anything, Caspian! Mr. Baye is just adapting to the situation!" Lexi shrieked."Do all the Bachs crawl on the ground to adapt?" Sebastian laughed scornfully."You bastard! I'm going to tell Mr. Baye what the two of you said later. Just wait! You're both going to die!" Lexi rushed out of the room angrily.Outside, the onlookers hadn't dispersed. They were all watching the sho
"Hmph! You bastards are accomplices of those human traffickers! You deserve to die!" Wilfred strode over to one of the Yutarian youths and crushed three of his ribs with one foot. When Wilfred saw that the Yutarian youth had fainted from the pain, he went over smugly to the remaining youth and said, "If you don't want to end up like him, then kneel to me and apologize to the people of Dramon!"Wilfred looked righteous and felt a sense of accomplishment. Compared to Sebastian and Nina, he felt that he truly embodied what a Dramonian Warrior should be!"Idiot!" The Yutarian youths exploded in anger at once and swung their fists at Wilfred.They were no match for Wilfred at all, and both of them ended up on the floor in a puddle of their own blood.Several of the onlookers looked at Wilfred with gazes of admiration.Everyone hated human traffickers. Everyone had children, and no one wanted to have their child snatched away on the streets.These Yutarians were allegedly found to
The surrounding onlookers all gave Wilfred a thumbs-up."Good slap! They need to be taught a lesson!""Beat these dogs up, old man!""Yeah! This is the territory of Dramon!"The onlookers were all cheering Wilfred on, and he grinned smugly.He glanced disdainfully at Sebastian and the others, who were still sitting inside. Those cowardly young people weren't even brave enough to teach a few Yutarian youths a lesson! What an embarrassment to Dramon!"Ms. Bach, I don't think that Mr. Weller is suitable to be your husband. What a coward! I think that a weakling like him is only suited to hanging out with a milksop like Sebastian!" Wilfred's lip curled, and he sneered.Lexi had been annoyed with Caspian already. Sebastian was clearly ignoring her existence, and Caspian had simply let him do so!Now, a Dramonian was being bullied right here in their own country by Yutarians, but Sebastian hadn't made a single peep. If Caspian became her husband, how could she hold her head up high
Wilfred was just lucky that Nina hadn't had much of an appetite for the past few days. Otherwise, he wouldn't even have any bones left after what he had just said.Nina was spooning ice cream into her mouth. It was the first time she had eaten something so delicious.Although Nina had had a corporeal body before, she hadn't been able to eat at all. Even if she did eat, she couldn't taste anything.After using Sebastian's training technique, Nina could now eat and drink like a normal person. She just hadn't had the chance to taste all the delicious food in the world yet. "My lor—Sebastian, I never knew that ice cream tasted so good!" Nina said as she dug out a spoonful and fed to Sebastian.Sebastian could not let Nina refer to him as her lord when they were out, as it would make people misunderstand, so he had asked her to refer to him by his name. Sebastian tasted it and nodded. "Yes, this ice cream is pretty good."Nina giggled and said, "My saliva tastes good too."Sebasti
The energy replenishing pills were sold out as soon as they were released. The buyers would then resell it on the black market at prices that were two or even five times higher. That meant that any distributor who signed a contract with Rosalie would become the suppliers for these resellers.If such a high-quality energy replenishing pill could be put on Rainpure Group's shelves, it would make it a corporation with great influence in both cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.Caspian's hands were trembling with excitement, and he had no time to bother with Lexi at all.At that moment, there was a series of knocks on the door. Before Caspian could get up or ask anything, the door opened, and an old man walked in."Mr. Baye!" Lexi looked as if she had just seen her savior. She got up quickly to greet him.Wilfred Baye was one of the Bachs' guardsmen. "Ms. Bach." Wilfred bowed very politely to Lexi. Before Caspian gave him permission to do so, he pulled up a chair and sat down.Caspian
Lexi was from a family skilled in martial arts, and she was used to meeting prominent and influential figures. It didn't matter whether they were prominent figures in business or politics. They all had to show respect to the Bach family.While she was abroad, Lexi had seen for herself how strong the Warriors overseas were. Comparatively, a traditional medicine doctor like Sebastian seemed inconsequential to her. Caspian could just ask the Bachs for help if he wanted to become head of the Weller family. If the Bachs agreed, how could the Wellers possibly refuse?There was no need for Caspian to suck up to a traditional medicine doctor.Sebastian arrived at the private room at 8:00 pm on the dot. Caspian immediately got up to welcome him when he saw him. "Welcome, Mr. Ballard! I am honored to be able to have dinner with you!" he said, looking straight at Sebastian.Sebastian smiled lightly. "You're too kind, Mr. Weller. We're all friends here, and there's no need to be so for
Caspian wasn't hesitating because of the division of profits. He was simply calculating his ultimate gains. After half a minute, Caspian's eyes gleamed all of a sudden, and he said, "Deal!"Rosalie and Whitney were startled at first, but then they both broke into excited grins."Firstly, I'd like to clarify something. Our company doesn't focus solely on Sartvale. Sartvale and its surrounding states are the ones we focus on managing. We put our efforts into maintaining a chunk of the market in the whole country, not just in the state of Sartvale. So…"Caspian paused before continuing, "We may not be able to do what Grandase Group did within Sartvale, so your masks may not be in every mall and supermarket.""We understand. As long as you're sincere in collaborating with us, we can let go of the market share in Sartvale," Rosalie said excitedly.Just the thought of getting into the national market was exciting. Who wouldn't be willing to give up something small for something bigger
