Whitney brushed a strand of hair behind her ear and shook her head. "No, this time I want to rely on ourselves!"While a partnership with Bashmore Group was undoubtedly important for Frostwave Corporation, a giant like them wouldn't favor Frostwave Corporation just because of someone's connections. Only their strength could serve as their entry ticket."But Ms. Sutton, if we miss this opportunity, the hard-earned market share we've gained will be divided by others! I've already had people investigate, and Rosé Corporation received their entry ticket just yesterday! It must be that wretched person from the Griffin family again—""Enough!" Whitney interrupted Mabel sternly before she could finish, "Mabel, you must always be mindful of your words! Ms. Griffin is also our business partner, not a wretch, and I expect you to remember that!"Mabel's expression stiffened, and she lowered her head. "Yes, Ms. Sutton."She then added, "But Ms. Sutton, we really can't miss this chance. Rosé
"Really?" Whitney's tone suddenly became excited on the other end of the phone."Winnie, listen to me. The competition is extremely fierce this time. You know what it would mean to become a partner with Bashmore Group." Fergus reassured her. "So, Mr. Beckard hasn't given me a definitive answer yet, but rest assured, I will do my utmost for you!""Alright then… I'll wait for your good news," Whitney said before hanging up.Fergus looked at his phone and chuckled. He thought, "Give you the hard-won entry ticket? You can keep on dreaming!"Ever since Whitney had broken off their engagement, Fergus had harbored a deep resentment toward her. Rather than allowing Frostwave Corporation to get the entry ticket, he preferred to use the Beckard family to end Frostwave Corporation!In the end, Whitney would have to bow to him, if only for the sake of the Sutton family. The thought brought a malicious glint to Fergus's eyes.…Whitney put down the phone, nervously clenching her hands as
Whitney was taken aback by Jace's question. Before the meeting, she had thoroughly prepared and organized all the product information and market feedback for Iceheart facial masks into a neat file. She never expected him to be interested in the Goldcrow pill.After a brief pause, Whitney tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and smiled. "Mr. Beckard, the Goldcrow pill is a recent development. I was in such a rush that I forgot to bring it along. But don't worry, I'll have someone bring it right away."She then turned to Mabel and said, "Mabel, please hurry back to the office and have Theresa bring a box of the improved Goldcrow pill over as soon as possible."Mabel nodded and quickly left the room.Whitney took a sip of hot water and asked, "Mr. Beckard, does Bashmore Group also have interests in the pharmaceutical industry?"Jace smiled faintly, shaking his head and tapping his teacup. "Ms. Sutton, that is not the case. Recently, my grandfather's health hasn't been great, so
Jace frowned and asked, "Gandolf, what's the problem? Is there something wrong?"Gandolf let out a cold snort and sneered, "Mr. Beckard, they're trying to fool you."What?Theresa was puzzled.Whitney's heart sank. It was clear that Gandolf was no ordinary person. He had likely discerned something.Unwilling to back down, Mabel asked, "Sir, what evidence do you have for saying this?""Evidence?" Gandolf laughed. "Even if your research team had another five hundred years, they wouldn't be able to come up with such a complex formula!"Turning to Jace, Gandolf continued, "Mr. Beckard, the original formula for this Goldcrow pill is a culmination of the greatest achievements in traditional medicine. Without a thousand years of heritage from a prestigious medical family, it's impossible to create such an intricate formula!"Hearing this, Jace narrowed his eyes and looked coldly at Whitney. "Ms. Sutton, if your company cannot even ensure basic honesty, I think we should reconsider our
Back at the club, Jace toyed with the Goldcrow pill in his hand, his gaze intense as he stared at it. "Gandolf, do you mean to say that Sebastian might come from a prestigious medical sect?""Not just any medical sect. He's likely a successor of the Sacred Medicine Society," Gandolf replied with hatred in his eyes.Gandolf was from the Witch Sect and had once been an elder. Over ten years ago, the Sacred Medicine Society had commanded several sects to attack the Witch Sect, destroying centuries of heritage in a single blow. Had Gandolf not hidden in the pond behind the mountain, he would not have survived. Every time he thought of the massacre, his hatred for the Sacred Medicine Society would increase.…Rosalie decided to take a rare day off and drove Sebastian to the city center. She then dragged him into an international, well-known men's fashion store.Half an hour later, Sebastian loosened his tie and smiled wryly. "I really can't get used to these clothes. They're too re
Among Jerry's dubious friends was Logan Steele, who was Andon's top fighter. And Andon was on par with Hans in terms of influence. With Logan backing him, Jerry was confident that dealing with a nobody like Sebastian would be a piece of cake. This could be his stepping stone to gaining favor with the prestigious Beckard family and inheriting his family's business.Growing more excited, Jerry called a waitress over. He whispered some instructions and then hurried to the manager's office to call Logan.Meanwhile, Sebastian and Rosalie were engrossed in ordering their meal. They didn't even notice Jerry there. Rosalie ordered a lavish spread from the menu."Hmm, this should be enough for now. Oh, and bring us your best bottle of red wine," she said, handing the menu back to the waitress with a happy smile directed at Sebastian."How are we supposed to finish all this?" Sebastian asked with a helpless smile. Rosalie had ordered three different types of steak, leaving him a bit sp
Rosalie was not one to be easily bullied. Earlier, she had chosen to be polite as she didn't want to ruin her special day with Sebastian. But that did not mean she would tolerate being mistreated."200 thousand!" The waitress crossed her arms and sneered. "What's the matter? Can't afford it?""You have to pay no matter what," she added arrogantly.Sebastian overheard the commotion at the door and looked over. His face darkened as he saw Rosalie being confronted by the waitress."Rosalie, what's going on?" he asked as he walked over."It's nothing," Rosalie replied, her expression hardening. "This waitress bumped into me and now wants me to pay for the broken glasses.""Don't lie! You didn't watch where you were going and bumped into me, which then caused the glasses to break. Don't push the blame on me now!" The waitress continued to shout, pointing at Rosalie.Sebastian frowned and said, "There should be surveillance cameras in the restaurant. Let's check the footage."The men
The sound of the slap reverberated through the restaurant. Not only was the manager completely stunned, but the waitress was also frozen in shock. The onlookers around them collectively gasped.The waitress wasn't lying with what she said earlier; the owner of Amor Dream Restaurant was indeed on good terms with Logan, who was Andon's top fighter. Sebastian seemed very bold to create trouble here."You've got a lot of nerve to hit our manager. Today, if you don't leave a hand behind, don't think you'll walk out of here alive!" the waitress shouted angrily at Sebastian while helping the manager off the ground."Oh dear, you've really stirred up trouble. This restaurant isn't one to be messed with. Just a few days ago, someone got their arm broken for simply saying that the borscht here didn't taste right!" A middle-aged man nearby quickly and quietly advised, "You'd better apologize."Sebastian sneered. If it weren't for Amor Dream Restaurant's poor customer service, he would
Blake commanded a few Warrior League apprentices to load the Medcroft Cauldron into the car before gesturing politely to Sebastian. "After you, Mr. Ballard."Sebastian said goodbye to Belinda before getting in. Afterward, he handed Blake a bottle of Gold Remedy. "How are your injuries?"Blake shook his head. "I'm fine. However, you need to be careful after getting back, Mr. Ballard. I'm afraid that the Yutarian Warriors aren't going to let things go so easily."Sebastian hadn't been well-known before, but after what happened in the arena, his name had spread fast. "Don't worry. Let them come if they want to," Sebastian said, smiling slightly.…When Sebastian carried the Medcroft Cauldron into the convenience store, Nina and Lyanna both turned to look at him."There's something strange about this cauldron," Lyanna said, frowning. She could sense a frightening tendril of energy from it. It was an ancient, powerful object that was very mysterious, and it clashed with her ghostl
The Yutarians would be very likely to try and penetrate the three divine mountains to find the Reincarnation Pill if they were unable to find anything in other places.The Warriors that had been sent to Steinberg were probably only a distraction.Steinberg was just a small city, after all, and Sartvale was just a small state in Dramon that didn't have many legends in its history.The three divine mountains were different. Every single mountainous region contained countless legends and stories.The Medcroft had been named as the place where the Way of Wisdom had originated.Norlyn was named the home of deities.Meanwhile, Caela was called the gate to paradise. Even in the present day, there had been no one who had managed to explore the three divine mountains thoroughly. No one could reveal the secrets of those three divine mountains either."Madam Dragon, do you mean that we should delay them or destroy them here in Steinberg while we also send someone to keep an eye on the th
The losses they had suffered that night were too severe. More importantly, they had offended Jorvahn.Giovanni felt that there had been nothing wrong with his plan. The only mistake they had made was in allowing Saul to escape, which resulted in the entire thing getting exposed."Mr. Conti!" Luigi's voice came from the doorway as Giovanni was wiping down the blade."Please come in, Mr. Coppola," Giovanni said as he continued to wipe down the Yutarian saber.The door was pushed open, and Luigi walked into the room. When he saw that Giovanni was actually wiping down his Yutarian saber, his eyes widened."Mr. Conti, are you…"Giovanni smiled bitterly and said, "It's what our superiors want. I'm sure that someone will come and take over for me tomorrow morning."He sighed deeply.Luigi hastily pressed Giovanni's hand and said, "Mr. Conti, this has nothing to do with you. This is all due to my negligence."Giovanni shook his head slightly and said, "That is no longer important. How
Belinda nodded slightly and said, "Hold grand funerals for those who are dead and take care of their families.""Yes, Madam," Blake replied. He looked stern as he waved at the Warrior League apprentices. They all quickly picked up the corpses of the Warrior League apprentices on the ground and carried them into the cars.Someone took out gasoline and poured it over the assassins.Sebastian lit a cigarette and took a few drags. He then flung it at the pile of corpses.As flames roared into the air, Blake said coldly, "Get into the cars and let's go!"The procession of cars began driving toward Ventus Estate. …After Luigi had managed to escape, he stopped a few miles away. The assassins who had followed him slowly gathered together.After counting the people present, Luigi couldn't help sighing heavily. Out of over 300 assassins, almost half of them were dead. How was he going to explain this to Giovanni?"Warrior League!" Luigi clenched his fists viciously."Mr. Coppola, m
Blake was shocked to see that the apprentice had been killed right in front of his eyes. He waved quickly to his right and left.There was the sound of doors opening and closing as over 200 Warrior League apprentices jumped out of the cars.The rustling sound in the woods could be heard from either side of them."The assassins have caught up!" Saul said nervously.Although he was very confident in Sebastian's skills, he was still only one person. The Warrior League had more people, but the assassins were in the shadows. It was a disadvantageous situation for the Warrior League.There was a sharp whistling noise as countless throwing spikes shot out of the woods. Several Warrior League apprentices fell to the ground."Turn off the car headlights!" Sebastian shouted at the Warrior League members.All the car headlights were turned off at once, and it became pitch-black. Sebastian opened the car door softly and leaped into the woods. There was the crunch of bones breaking, and
"They're afraid that the Juwanian King Jorvahn will lead a force to Dramon and affect their plans. That's why they wanted to kill everyone. Their goal is to find the Reincarnation Pill in Dramon," Belinda said as she analyzed the situation.Sebastian frowned, deep in thought. Soon, he nodded in agreement.That was the only explanation that made sense.Otherwise, there was really no reason for the Yutarian Warriors to slaughter all the Yvantonian Warriors when there was no grudge between them."They killed all of my people. As long as you keep me safe, I'll tell King Jorvahn about everything that happened here. I can guarantee that King Jorvahn will destroy all of them, and he won't hold you responsible," Saul said urgently to Sebastian and Belinda. Sebastian and the Warrior League were Saul's last hope. They were still more than ten miles away from the city, and it would be impossible for him to flee there if he had to run. Besides, the enemy would be sure to chase after him if
A few other Warrior League apprentices went up to them. When they were close enough, one of them asked coldly, "What are you shouting about in the middle of the night?"Saul looked fearfully at them and asked, "Where's Mr. Ballard? I want to see him! Something huge has happened!"He was very pale, and he looked extremely afraid. The Warrior League apprentices frowned, and one of them immediately took out his phone to call Blake.Upon hearing Blake's voice, the apprentice told him about how Saul had run over to them to ask for help.Blake nodded and said, "Don't hang up yet. Let me ask Madam Dragon."Blake hurriedly rolled down the window and waved a hand at the cars behind him, indicating for them to stop temporarily."Madam Dragon, Yvanton's team leader has come to ask for help, and he bumped into some of our men who were fixing their car. Do you think…"Belinda and Sebastian were both startled. Sebastian had just killed Jorvahn's grandson, and now Saul had come to ask them
"That's right! This time, we must find the Reincarnation Pill!" said another Warrior.If Jorvahn did turn up in Dramon, the Yutarian Warriors would be wiped out by him. Yutaria had sent over 300 Warriors this time, not just to defeat Dramon's Warriors in the arena. They had an even more important mission. They had to stay in Dramon and find the Reincarnation Pill!There were only less than three years until the day when their ancestral god would be restored. The ancestral god would remain asleep forever if they couldn't get the Reincarnation Pill back within those three years.At that time, the islands of Yutaria might even sink into the sea because of the ancestral god's deep slumber. This was a secret that Yutaria had hidden for thousands of years."Kill them all so they won't have a chance to spread the news!" Giovanni finally made up his mind after hesitating for a while."Yes, sir!" The Warriors straightened up simultaneously and bowed to Giovanni.Luigi waved a hand
The news of how Jorvahn's grandson had been chopped into mincemeat and fed to dogs caused a commotion in the family at once.However, Dramon was too far away, and they didn't know enough about the situation there. Even though they wanted revenge, they would have to wait for the visiting team to return to Yvanton before they could gain more information and form a plan.…On the way back to the city, Belinda was worried for Sebastian and said, "Mr. Ballard, although there's nothing wrong with killing the grandson of the Juwanian King Jorvahn, chopping the two into mincemeat and feeding them to the dogs was a little inappropriate."She didn't just have connections with the high-level officials of Dramon, but she also had many friends in the international martial arts community. However, she had never had any dealings with Jorvahn before.Jorvahn had a terrible reputation in both Yarroland and Velkashan. He was extremely hard to deal with, and it wasn't because he was capable. It was
