Rachel had just finished screaming when the demons lunged at her and intertwined themselves around her body, as if determined to take her life. They seemed to be sucking on something.Rachel screamed tragically, flailing her arms around as she tried to swat them away. However, it was no use.Her shrieks scared Mike and Janet so much that they began shaking violently as they stood there.At that moment, Rachel felt something leaking out rapidly from her body.No matter how hard she tried to chase them away, the five demons remained fastened to her like vampires, sucking out a white gaseous vapor from her body. It was her life force!Rachel kept screeching, and her beautiful face rapidly seemed to wilt. Her skin had been plump and elastic, but it began shriveling swiftly, and in the blink of an eye, she looked like a woman in her 60s.The sight terrified Mike and Janet. They had never imagined such a thing would happen.What an amazing person! Sebastian was the real expert!Rac
Mike finally understood what was going on. Unexpectedly, he wasn't angry at all. Instead, he sounded very excited as he said, "Janet, it's an honor to be Dr. Ballard's maid."Janet rolled her eyes at him.Sebastian did not linger. He told Mike to arrange for a driver to drive him back to Steinberg.In the living room of the Connollys' villa in the mountains, Mike asked Janet meaningfully, "Janet, what do you think about Dr. Ballard?""He's very capable and very mysterious," she answered without hesitating.Mike nodded and said, "I feel the same way. Since you've promised to be his maid for three months, you should set off for Steinberg tomorrow. Apart from that, I want to advise you to take those three months as an opportunity."Janet was confused. She asked rather uncomprehendingly, "Dad, what do you mean by that? What kind of opportunity are you talking about?""Sleep with Dr. Ballard and make him my son-in-law, obviously!" Mike answered.Janet jolted with shock and asked in
The convenience store had been completely smashed up.Janet had been flung to the floor by a slap from a large, burly man. She clutched at her swollen cheek with tears in her eyes, looking very aggrieved."What do you want?" she asked.There were four tattooed men in the shop. The bald one in the lead leered at Janet as she sat on the ground, and there was a sharp look in his eyes. He said coldly, "What are you doing? Can't you see that we're here to collect a fee?""A fee?" Janet was confused.The man pulled a chair over, sat down, and began smoking. He crossed his legs and said coldly, "Where's your boss?""He's gone out," she replied.The bald man nodded, and his gaze swept over Janet's long legs and full chest. He stared lewdly at her and grinned. "When your boss gets back, tell him that starting from today, this street belongs to Will Bond," he declared. "If he wants to keep his store open, he'll have to pay ten thousand every month if he doesn't want trouble! If he doe
With a resounding snap, Sebastian had broken Will's wristWill howled in pain.Sebastian wasn't done! He raised his foot and kicked Will's kneecap, shattering it at once.Will screamed and fell to his knees with a thump. "Apologize! Otherwise, die!" Sebastian said coldly.Will finally realized that he could not afford to provoke the man in front of him. He hastily screamed, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I was wrong! I'll never do it again! Please, sir, please, ma'am, have mercy on me…"Sebastian turned and looked at Janet. He gestured to her. "Come over here and slap him!""Huh?" Janet was startled. She felt rather afraid and wary.Sebastian's brow furrowed, and he said, "You can't get bullied if you're my maid! If you do get bullied by someone, you've got to pay them back for it! Slap him!"Janet bit her lip and walked over. She raised her hand to give Will a resounding slap across the face."Keep going!" Sebastian said. Janet thought for a moment. She made up her mind and slapp
Sebastian frowned and said, "I don't want to discuss this with you. What's happened to Ms. Griffin?"Whitney looked resentfully at him. After a moment's silence, she exhaled and said, "I'm not sure about the specifics. Ms. Griffin rushed back to Janover yesterday. Apparently, something's happened to the Janover Griffins."Something had happened to the Janover Griffins?Sebastian's brow was furrowed tightly. He suddenly got up and said, "I'm going to go to Janover.""What are you going to Janover for? You have no power and no status. What can you do for the Janover Griffins?" Whitney asked accusingly. She was rather annoyed.Sebastian had changed. The man who had once been willing to risk everything for her was now going to Janover for another woman. "This is my private business, and you don't need to interfere," Sebastian said impassively.Whitney was furious. She blocked Sebastian's path and said sharply, "Sebastian! What the hell are you going to do? It's Janover! It's a dang
Silver gleamed in Sebastian's hands, and he held it against their necks as he said coldly, "Tell me who you are and why you're following me. If you don't tell me, you'll die!"The man and woman leaning against the wall were scared witless. The speed with which Sebastian had reacted had made it clear that they were no match for him.The two of them exchanged looks. The man spoke first, "Mr. Ballard, we're from the Ballard family."At the term of address, Sebastian's brow furrowed tightly, and his expression darkened at once. A bone-piercing chill settled over him."The Ballards? Who sent you?" Sebastian said harshly. The silver needles he was holding pierced into their necks, drawing blood!The man tried his best to remain calm as he said, "Mr. Roland Ballard sent us.""Roland Ballard?" Sebastian's expression darkened. He studied the pair in front of him, and once he had ascertained that they weren't lying, he put the silver needles away.It was only then that the man and woman f
Sebastian's expression darkened, and he frowned when he saw the fierce-looking men."Get lost! If you don't go away, I'll set them on you!" the butler, Arnold Wasser, said threateningly. Sebastian was impassive. "I want to see Ms. Griffin.""Damn you! Are you determined to cause trouble? Beat him up and send him packing!" Arnold yelled angrily.The bodyguards behind him immediately raised their sticks and aimed them at Sebastian.Sebastian raised a hand and waved it. With a series of thumps, the sticks were all snapped in half by a strong wave of energy. The men's expressions changed to horror at once. Before they could react, a harsh wind scraped across their faces, and they immediately fell to the ground, howling in pain.Arnold wet himself with fear. He shouted, "W-What are you trying to do? I'm telling you, this is the home of the Janover Griffins! If you make trouble here, you won't be leaving Janover!"Sebastian took a step forward and said coldly, "I want to see Ms. Gr
Sebastian stepped over Arnold and walked straight into the courtyard of Griffin Manor. He had just stepped inside when sirens began howling in the courtyard!Hordes of black-suited men surged forth from all directions and surrounded Sebastian. There were about 100 of them, and the number of people kept increasing.In just a moment, Sebastian had been surrounded three deep on all sides. He frowned, and without wasting any time with small talk, he continued walking forward."Stop him!" someone yelled, and the men immediately lunged toward Sebastian.They began kicking and pummeling him. Some of them even took out daggers and tried to stab him.However, Sebastian was utterly fearless. He only moved slightly and aimed a few kicks, and all the men charging toward him were sent flying!It was as if he was tossing sandbags or kicking trash away. They all flew backward and fell in the yard, all of them whimpering in pain.In the main hall, Alec was sitting and drinking his tea when he
