Adrian laughed sinisterly. "Bastard! You scumbag!" Whitney cursed. She struggled to get up to leave the private room. She knew that if she stayed any longer, the consequences would be disastrous.As time ticked by, Whitney felt an unusual surge of desire coursing through her body. She was burning up with a deep-seated longing magnified within her. Especially now, when she looked at Adrian, she couldn't help but see the image of Sebastian in her mind.Noticing Whitney's increasingly dazed state, Adrian grew more excited. Unable to wait any longer, he tossed aside his wine glass and lunged at her. "Gorgeous, tonight, you are mine!" he shouted. "No! Get away, get away!" Whitney struggled desperately, but it was futile.Suddenly, the private room door was kicked open. A figure with murderous intent stormed in. With a swift kick, he sent Adrian flying away. Adrian crashed heavily to the floor, groaning in pain."S-Sebastian? Save me…"Whitney saw the figure in her dazed s
Rosalie saw Sebastian carrying Whitney down from the second floor, and she frowned. "What's the matter?""I'll explain later. Let me send her back first." Sebastian then left with Whitney.Rosalie stomped her foot angrily and followed behind.Soon, the three of them went back to the convenience store.Rosalie was jealous when she saw Sebastian giving Whitney acupuncture treatment. "I've never seen you so worried about me."Sebastian rolled her eyes. "She was drugged.""Drugged?" Rosalie blinked and continued, "What happened?"Sebastian stored his silver needles and told Rosalie everything that happened in the private room."Do you know who that guy is?" Rosalie asked.Sebastian shook his head. "Nope, I forgot to ask."At this moment, Whitney woke up. She saw Sebastian and Rosalie and asked, "Why am I here?"Rosalie glared at her and crossed her arms. "Why else? Sebastian saved you.""Sebastian?" Whitney was puzzled. Then, she recalled everything that happened.Her body sho
Sebastian scoffed and shrugged Whitney's hand away. "Ms. Sutton, you don't care about me, do you? You care about yourself and the Frostwave Corporation project more, right?"Whitney was stunned, and she looked at Sebastian in confusion. "What do you mean?""Do you really need me to repeat that?" Sebastian said.Whitney's face darkened, and she asked Sebastian with displeasure. "Sebastian, you really think I'm like that?""What else? I saved you, yet here you are, blaming and scolding me! Is Reece Corporation or Adrian so powerful?"If you think me hitting Adrian would make things worse for you and Frostwave Corporation, then ask him to see me," Sebastian said coldly before heading to the back of the store.Whitney was stunned, staring at his back. Rosalie gave her a proud glance and shook her head. "Ms. Sutton, I really don't understand why you keep hurting Sebastian when he has always been so nice to you. Don't look for him anymore, in case you hurt him even more."With that
Whitney was hesitant."Since you're not making any decision, then I will decide for you. Someone, catch Sebastian!" Edna said angrily.This matter involved the Sutton family and Frostwave Corporation, so Edna had to make a choice."Got it!" The few bodyguards outside of the meeting room responded, then left.Whitney was scared, and she shouted, "Wait!"Instantly, everyone turned their eyes to her.Whitney took a deep breath and held her fist. "I'll go. Don't bring trouble to Sebastian anymore. I'll handle this issue!"Edna scoffed and left the meeting room. Then, the higher-ups also left. However, they were stating how dissatisfied they were with Sebastian hitting Adrian.Crystal waited for most of the people to leave before approaching Whitney. "Winnie, why are you helping Sebastian? He hit Adrian, so he should be the one handling this matter! Aren't you just selling yourself now?"Dante said, "That's right! You've already divorced that scumbag, so why do you even care? You c
"Do you know who Adrian is? It's well-known in Steinberg that he's a pervert!" Dante shouted. "He initially wanted our family to cripple your arms and make you apologize in person at Reece Corporation. "But Whitney decided to help you! She even said that it is none of your business! You're really a jerk, yet she still cares so much about you!"Sebastian frowned upon hearing that. "What? Whitney went to Reece Corporation alone?""Yes!" Dante replied. "And if you feel bad about it, then go save her! If you're late, she might have already been assaulted by Adrian!"Sebastian muttered to himself, "This woman is really a busybody."Feeling helpless, he had no choice but to drive Dante's car and rush to Reece Corporation.Dante and Crystal then gave each other a triumphant smile.Meanwhile, Whitney had arrived at Reece Corporation.Inside the CEO's office, she was bowing and apologizing to Adrian. "Mr. Reece, I'm so sorry. I didn't expect that my ex-husband would get physical."Adr
Whitney frowned when she saw Sebastian walking in. She said nervously, "Why are you here?"Sebastian approached her and grabbed the bottle of liquor from her hands. "Are you going to finish these two bottles if I don't come?""I…" Whitney stammered, and she looked wronged and helpless.Adrian, who was sitting opposite her, looked at Sebastian angrily. He laughed coldly and said, "How dare you come here alone! You're really bold, huh?"Sebastian scoffed and walked toward Adrian."Sebastian, what are you doing?" Whitney was scared, and she walked forward to grab Sebastian.Sebastian answered, "Don't worry. I know my limits."With that said, he looked at the bottles and said to Adrian, "Mr. Reece, how about I treat you to some drinks?""What do you mean?" Adrian frowned with a darkened expression."I mean… This!" Sebastian said coldly. A loud thud resounded when he hit Adrian's head with the bottle.Instantly, Adrian's head started bleeding. The hard liquor mixed with his blood
Whitney was shocked, and she pulled Sebastian away. He was still going to hit Adrian! "No… Please, don't! He's the CEO of Reece Corporation." she pleaded. Sebastian frowned.At this time, more than ten security guards rushed in with batons in their hands, and they looked fierce. When they saw Adrian bleeding on the floor, they were shocked."My goodness! Mr. Reece, are you okay?"The head of the guards helped Adrian up.Adrian then pointed at Sebastian and roared, "Get him!"The leader then glared at Sebastian as he gestured with his hands. "Attack!"Instantly, all of the guards rushed up, attempting to hold Sebastian down.Sebastian frowned and threw his punches repeatedly. After a brief moment, all of the guards collapsed onto the ground, wailing and howling in pain.Adrian was scared out of his wits at the sight, especially when Sebastian walked toward him.He shouted in fear, "Y-You… What do you think you're doing?""What do I think I'm doing?" Sebastian chuckled cold
Sebastian raised his hand and removed the silver needles on Adrian.At that moment, Adrian suddenly felt like he was alive again. He was covered in sweat and remained unmoved.There were side effects from the extreme pain just now; he would feel like his body was splitting apart if he moved a single muscle."Adrian, how does it feel? Wanna try again?" Sebastian asked coldly.Adrian shook in fear when he heard that. He got up and knelt on the floor as he cried. "Mr. Ballard, please, no. It's too painful! I'll never offend you ever again."Sebastian chuckled coldly. "Only me?"Adrian was stunned before realization dawned on him. He quickly bowed to Whitney and said, "Ms. Sutton, I'm sorry. I'll never harass you ever again."Whitney was already shocked to her core at this point. She was in disbelief when she saw Adrian apologizing to her.This was Adrian Reece from Reece Corporation, and his status in Steinberg was nothing to scoff at!"Mr. Reece, you…" Whitney was shocked, and h
"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
Caspian had not been able to attend the Southeast Chamber of Commerce banquet because of some issues at work.However, many of the people in the Chamber of Commerce were discussing the rumors about Sebastian.Caspian was also very curious about what kind of person Sebastian was.He had been bold enough to kill a Whitehall, after all. Caspian had investigated Sebastian for a while, and he knew that he wasn't just skilled in martial arts, he was also an expert in medicine. He also had close connections with many prominent figures.Even if Brett hadn't requested it, Caspian would have made it his goal to meet someone like Sebastian. Connections were extremely important to businessmen."Please sit down."Sebastian gestured for Rosalie and Whitney to sit down as well."Mr. Ballard, according to Mr. Dunhill, you're interested in working with our company," Caspian said earnestly."You're referring to them, not me. We have two face mask products on hand, and we would like to use your a
Sebastian took out his phone and called Brett.When Brett answered the call, he said very respectfully, "Mr. Ballard, what can I help you with?""I've come across some difficulties. Is there anyone in the cosmetic industry in the Southeast Chamber of Commerce? Introduce someone to me," Sebastian said, smiling."Cosmetic products?" Brett thought deeply for a moment before he said, "Mr. Ballard, I'll tell Caspian Weller to go and see you at the convenience store an hour from now. He's the vice CEO of Rainpure Group.""Okay," Sebastian replied before hanging up."Well?" Rosalie stared nervously at him.Sebastian frowned on purpose and said, "This may disappoint you…"He deliberately trailed off and put on a troubled look."Oh, it's okay. Let's think of another solution." Rosalie squeezed out a smile with some difficulty.A solution? She had no solution at all."Have you heard of Rainpure Group?" Sebastian asked, smiling.Rosalie's head whipped around, and she saw the satisfied
A few of the guards almost wet themselves with fright. Sebastian was a terrifying character who had crippled a martial arts Grandmaster with a single slap.Dean stared dazedly at them. He felt a chill settle over his heart as a name flashed across his mind—Sebastian Ballard.Only Brian Parker, the retainer of the Lannister family, would be able to face someone like Sebastian!"M-Mr. Ballard?" Dean broke out into a cold sweat at once. He stared at Sebastian, looking as pale as a sheet."You have a good eye." Sebastian bared his teeth at Dean.There was a thump as Dean's legs gave out in fear. He swallowed several times and said, "Mr. Ballard, I… I didn't mean to breach the contract. I… I was forced to do so."Dean was shaking like a leaf. If Sebastian lost his temper, Dean would lose his life!"Oh? You were forced to?" Sebastian smiled widely as he walked toward Dean."Mr. Ballard, have mercy!" Dean wet his pants in fear.Sebastian swept a cold gaze over him. He wouldn't deign
