Shannon snorted by the side. "Mom, don't ask like that. He clearly doesn't know shit. So many experts from the hospitals can't even identify your illness, let alone him.""I think the same." Dante laughed. "Sebastian, if you can't identify anything, just let me know. Don't waste any more time here. I'll ask another doctor to come."Whitney looked at Sebastian nervously. "Did you identify anything? What's Aunt Sally's illness?"Sebastian frowned and exhaled. "She is indeed sick.""Are you for real now? No shit, Sherlock!" Dante shouted.Sally glared at Sebastian. "Spit it out!"Sebastian chuckled. "You're quite ill, it seems."His words made everyone frown. Did he really find out something?"What is it? Just say it!" Shannon complained.Sebastian gave Shannon a sideway glance and said, "You're gonna lose your mother soon."Huh? What did he mean?Shannon was stunned, and she stared at him in shock. "What do you mean?"Whitney quickly understood, and her face changed.Sebasti
"Leave! Get out of here!" Sally was infuriated and kicked Sebastian out.Sebastian shrugged while Whitney pulled him away. She said apologetically to him, "Sorry, you know how she is.""I do." Sebastian smiled faintly. He knew Sally's character well—she was a shrew and malicious. "But you said that Aunt Sally won't be able to survive the night. Is it real?" Whitney asked in concern. "Don't scare them."Sebastian chuckled and asked, "Do you think I am joking?""You're serious? Aunt Sally is really going to die?" Whitney instantly panicked.Sebastian nodded. "If I'm not mistaken, yes.""What should we do?" Whitney was anxious.Sebastian shrugged. "Fate has its way of affecting us. Her survival depends on whether she wants to ask for my help."Without waiting for her to speak, Sebastian added, "I'm leaving. I have something to do."He soon returned to the convenience store, where he saw Rosalie.Rosalie looked extra cute that day. She didn't put on her usual career-woman outfi
Unexpectedly, he had returned.The Alpha Strike Force was the most special unit in Dramon, specifically responsible for the most challenging tasks.Klaus Hindon smiled with his eyes full of affection for Rosalie. "My five years of training are over. This time, I came back just for you.""Captain Hindon is the captain of Alpha Strike Force Team 13. He could've taken a position at the Janover division, but when he heard that you're in Steinberg, he requested a transfer here. Ms. Griffin, the Captain is truly sincere about you."The speaker was a young man behind Klaus, looking to be about 25. As he spoke, his eyes were full of pride and arrogance. He was Klaus' deputy, Conrad Beck, and also his follower.Conrad continued with a superior tone, "Ms. Griffin, Captain Hindon often talks about you. During training, he even got into a fight with the drill instructor over your photo!"Besides, over the years, many women pursued him, but he turned them all down. He has made it clear that y
"That's enough! Conrad, stop it!" Klaus' face darkened, but he took a deep breath and turned to Sebastian. After a moment, he said, "Let me introduce myself. I'm Klaus, Rosalie's childhood friend. My feelings for her are unshakable. No one can take her away from me.""Klaus, that's enough. These words are meaningless. I see you as a brother and nothing more." Rosalie frowned, discontent evident in her voice.But Klaus ignored her words. He looked at Sebastian with a sharp glint in his eyes and said coldly, "I've been observing you since earlier."I can tell you're just an ordinary guy and not even one percent as outstanding as I am. A man like you is not worthy of Rosalie and can never bring her happiness. I suggest you leave her as soon as possible."Sebastian chuckled at his words. With a mocking gaze, he replied, "Captain Hindon, right? Do you think you're really outstanding? Because frankly, you seem quite ordinary to me."You're just riding on your family's coattails, which
"If you kneel and beg for mercy now, you might still have a chance. But if you wait until I make a move, you'll be stuck in a hospital bed for years." Conrad sneered menacingly.Rosalie's face hardened with anger at the sight. "Klaus, what are you doing? If you dare lay a hand on Sebastian, I will never forgive you!"She stepped forward and stood protectively in front of Sebastian. Klaus had been training with the Alpha Strike Force for five years, honing his skills to a formidable level. His right-hand man undoubtedly was also very capable. Rosalie couldn't bear the thought of Sebastian getting hurt."Rosalie, I'll show you that this guy isn't worth your affection," Klaus replied coldly. "If he can't even beat my right-hand man, how can he protect you? Conrad, take him down!"At his command, Conrad lunged forward with a powerful charge toward Sebastian. This move was proven unstoppable within the Alpha Strike Force, and it defeated numerous members.Seeing Conrad's confident
Sebastian's ability to defeat Conrad indeed surprised Klaus. But it was only a momentary surprise. To him, Sebastian was nothing more than an insignificant nobody. Conrad had held back because he didn't want to cause a fatal injury. After all, the missions undertaken by the Alpha Strike Force were extremely challenging and dangerous and carried life risk. In a real mission scenario, Conrad would've finished Sebastian off easily.Thus, Klaus coldly mocked, "Don't think that just because you beat Conrad, you're special. He was holding back. If he hadn't, you'd already be a corpse."At this moment, Conrad struggled to his feet with blood dripping from his mouth. His eyes were filled with murderous intent as he glared at Sebastian. "You little punk! How dare you fight back! Do you even know who I am?" he shouted. "Why should I care who you are? What, you expect me to just stand here and take a beating?" Sebastian replied coldly. He was clearly displeased by Conrad's attitude."Y
In the next moment, Klaus stopped speaking and launched an attack on Sebastian. Each of his moves carried a lethal intent.Sebastian was unafraid, and he skillfully countered each of Klaus' moves with precision.The longer they fought, the more frustrated Klaus became. No matter how he attacked, he couldn't launch an effective attack, not even touching Sebastian's clothes."Is this punk really just an ordinary warrior?" Klaus wondered. But having already boasted, he couldn't back down now. His strikes became even more vicious, with each strike aiming to kill.Sebastian raised an eyebrow, losing interest in the prolonged fight. "Captain. Hindon, your skills are quite average," he said coldly. "Let me end this."With that, Sebastian switched from defense to offense and threw a punch through the air.Before Klaus could react, Sebastian's punch hit his chest. It felt as if he had been struck by a truck. Klaus was sent flying over 30 feet and crashed to the ground.Coughing up bloo
After thinking for a moment, Sebastian told Rosalie he was going to the restroom and took the opportunity to head up to the second floor.Meanwhile, in the private room on the second floor, Adrian held a glass of wine and approached Whitney with a smile. "Ms. Sutton, cheers."Whitney quickly raised her glass and smiled politely. "Thank you, Mr. Reece." She then took a small sip.Adrian feigned displeasure, with his tone turning stern. "Ms. Sutton, just a sip? Are you looking down on me or the Reece Corporation?"Hearing this, Whitney hurried to placate him with a smile. "Mr. Reece, of course not. I'll drink."She then drained her glass in one gulp. Adrian watched her drink with his face full of lecherous glee. Seeing the wine trickle down the corner of her mouth only fueled his desire further. He was practically salivating at the thought of possessing this beautiful woman."Come on, Ms. Sutton. Bottoms up," Adrian said and poured another glass.Whitney wanted to refuse, bu
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
