Sebastian nodded slightly and got up. He said, "Alright. I'll be right back."He walked out of the store and disappeared into the night.As she watched him leave, Janet asked in confusion, "Ms. Griffin, I really don't understand. Why are you so nice to Whitney? You're rivals in love."Isn't it a good thing to let Frostwave Corporation close down because of this medicine issue? Besides, with this as a barrier between them, she'll never remarry Dr. Ballard."Even Janet, who was an outsider, could see very clearly that Whitney was letting her defenses down to Sebastian. It was clear that she wanted to patch things up with him.Anyone who was in Rosalie's shoes would never let Sebastian help Whitney.Rosalie smiled and shook her head as she said, "No, I'm not helping Whitney. I'm only giving Sebastian freedom."The relationship that I truly want is one that has no sense of restrictions and is free of any verbal threats. If I force him to stay with me, neither of us would be happy."
"I rushed over specially to see if there's anything I can do to help," Jace said. "I heard that if you use the acupuncture technique found on the National Doctors website to clear the meridians after taking the Goldcrow pill, the patient will be fine, so I brought Gandolf along. Let him give the patient acupuncture later, and the patient will be alright." Jace had taken them all by surprise. Even Theresa and Mabel were impressed. Compared to how indifferent Sebastian had been, Jace was the perfect Prince Charming. Not only did he have an impressive family background, but he was also very helpful. The most important thing was that Jace was very handsome. Even Theresa looked at him with admiration in her eyes. "Oh my, you're such a gentleman, Mr. Beckard. Ms. Sutton was hesitating about whether to call you for help just now. We never expected you to…" Mabel was so overcome with excitement that she didn't know what to say.Whitney felt very touched. She was about to nod and accep
Whitney's gaze sharpened, and she stopped in her tracks. She frowned and said, "Theresa, I have a feeling that only Sebastian will be able to save the patient."I'm going to call him again later and try. Even if I have to get on my knees to beg him, I have to make sure that nothing will go wrong." Whitney was clearly uncertain. After all, she wasn't a hundred percent sure that Sebastian would be able to do anything. It was just that deep in her heart, she hoped that Sebastian would come. That was the only way she could see a shred of hope in getting remarried to him.Was Frostwave Corporation important to her? Yes, it was!However, the heartrending pain she had felt after losing Sebastian made it almost impossible for her to breathe."Oh, Whit. Why don't you get it? Sebastian is obviously scared. He doesn't have any medical skills at all."If he is really that skilled, why haven't we ever seen him publish any articles in international medical journals? There are barely any peo
"That's nonsense!" Before Whitney could speak, Mabel stood forward.The reporter sneered and pulled out a photo of Nathan that had been taken when he was in critical condition. "Am I talking nonsense, or are you deliberately concealing the side effects of the medicine?""I'm sure you're familiar with the gentleman in this photo. Do I need to expose his identity?"Mabel's gaze swept over the old man in the photo, and her pupils constricted at once. She stood there, struck dumb with fear!The evidence was irrefutable!The other reporters immediately raised their cameras and pointed them at Whitney as they said, "Ms. Sutton, your company knew that the efficacy of the Goldcrow pill is extremely unstable, but you still announced to the public that it can cure all diseases. Were you deliberately lying to the consumers?"Even Whitney was at a loss as to how to react to such an accusation. However, the evidence was laid out in front of them.When Nathan had almost died, logically Frostw
The reporters hadn't expected Whitney to faint all of a sudden, and they stood there in a daze. Theresa and Mabel hastily picked Whitney up and ran toward the emergency room. "Doctor, Doctor! Please save her!" Very soon, a bunch of medical staff came rushing over to push Whitney into the emergency room. After more than ten minutes, the doors opened suddenly, and a doctor in a white coat strode out. He said to Theresa and Mabel, "Where is the patient's family?" "I'm here!" Both women answered and hurried up to him. The patient is in a very dangerous condition, and she could die at any moment. We need her relatives to sign this before we begin emergency rescue."The doctor handed them a medical disclaimer and gave a pen to Theresa."I…" Theresa hesitated. After all, this was a matter of life and death, and she had no right to sign. She had a PhD in medicine and had studied abroad. She knew that doctors would not request for such a medical disclaimer to be signed unless the
"Where's Winnie? What happened? She was fine this morning!" Crystal said anxiously as she rushed to the emergency room entrance and grabbed Theresa's hand. Before Theresa could speak, Mabel said through gritted teeth, "It's all because of that scumbag, Sebastian!""If it weren't for him, things would never have progressed to this point. Ms. Sutton wouldn't have had a flare up, either!"When Crystal heard that it had something to do with Sebastian again, she was furious."Tell me what happened!"Mabel told her what had happened, embellishing the story lavishly.However, she cut out the part where the reporters had interrogated Whitney and pushed the blame entirely onto Sebastian.Theresa frowned, and she opened her mouth to speak a few times.The truth was that Sebastian wasn't entirely at fault. However, as Mabel had said, if he had just agreed to help, then Whitney wouldn't have been put in such a situation, and she wouldn't have had a flare-up.Therefore, Theresa held her to
Dante added. "That's right! How could a loser like Sebastian know anything? The medicine he left won't be able to cure Winnie."Besides, isn't the hospital getting ready to operate on her? As soon as we sign, she can get the operation."Theresa frowned. She couldn't help but think about the time when Whitney got caught in the rain. It had been Sebastian's needle technique that had saved her!Was Sebastian telling the truth? Did Whitney really have some kind of cold energy inside her?Theresa spoke heavily, "Mrs. Sutton, I advise you not to let Whit have the operation. I'm sure you remember what happened when she got caught in the rain. If we had believed the hospital at the time, Whit would probably already be…"Crystal's heart clenched. It was as Theresa had said. Whitney had shown the same symptoms before. At the time, they had asked someone from Medcity to come, but in the end, it was Sebastian who had saved Whitney's life.Crystal hesitated and said, "Theresa, do you mean t
Who knew what would happen if Whitney took vitamins in this state?If anything happened to Whitney and the police got involved, they might find out that Mabel had tampered with the medicine. The Suttons would never let her get away with it."What medicine? If they want Whitney to take it, then let her," Fergus said rather impatiently.Fergus was currently with his father, Simon, and he was trying to boast to him of his achievements. After all, he had personally met with Jace that day, and there were hints that he could reach an agreement with the Beckards.That was excellent news for the Cobbs! "You've forgotten? That's the medicine you told me to switch! If Whitney takes it and anything happens to her, I'll be their prime suspect," Mabel explained everything to him once more.When she had seen the bottle of pills that Sebastian had left in Whitney's office, Fergus had told her to keep a close eye on it. That was why Mabel always kept a bottle of vitamins with her.Fergus' hear
Sebastian nodded slightly. Yorrick had probably killed the young man because the latter was proficient in mystic spells and was already on the brink of the threshold. That could be the only reason for Yorrick's senseless deedThere were some people who couldn't bear seeing people who were stronger than them, which was why they made their move before their opponent could grow and develop."Are you really going to concede three moves to me, old man?" Sebastian stepped forward, grinning."Of course!" Yorrick answered, staring arrogantly at him.He still hadn't seen anything out of the ordinary with Sebastian, so he assumed that Sebastian was just an ordinary guy. He had probably only been able to defeat so many experts—including Egbert—because he had used some kind of trick. Egbert had lost because he had fallen into Sebastian's trap, not because of the latter's skills. That was why Egbert ended up suffering from the backlash of the ghost he had nurtured and lost his powers."I'll
"Young man, you're so cruel. Have you ever thought of the consequences of your actions?" Yorrick asked. He put his hands behind his back as he walked slowly toward Sebastian. Sebastian eyed Yorrick, whose training was at least on the same level as Egbert's. Besides, what he had studied was also a kind of spell. He and Sebastian specialized in the same study.The moment Yorrick got angry, Sebastian had sensed the faint power of Dainist principles from him."No blows are kind, and neither are harsh words! Why do you people feel that others should meekly allow you to beat them up? When your people are injured, you immediately think of it as the other party's mistake! That doesn't make any sense!" Sebastian answered coldly."Mr. Irving, kill that asshole!" Kayden said viciously. He was still clutching his crotch with one hand while he pointed at Sebastian with his other hand. Beside them, Jayden said defiantly, "Mr. Irving, you must not let this guy go! He's ruthless and extremely
Huh? Egbert frowned involuntarily. He had never felt that way before. What was going on? There was a loud blast, and the gigantic statue suddenly appeared out of thin air. At the same time, Egbert suddenly felt his blood churning inside him, and he immediately felt a sense of foreboding.He was about to turn and run when a black bolt of light hit him in the back. He immediately spat out a mouthful of blood and flew through the air like a broken kite. "Oh! Are you actually a sadist, old man?" Sebastian asked, smiling.Before Egbert could scramble up again, yet another bolt of dark light flew toward him."Damn it!"Egbert could no longer be conscious of his image and dignity. He swore at once. The dark light was aimed at his energy reserve. If he was hit, his decades of training would be completely ruined. However, he had plenty of life experience and had been through many such situations. When he saw the dark light flying toward him, he rolled across the floor like a bal
The dark shadow stretched out a large hand toward Nina. It appeared to be planning on tearing off her clothes. "Die?" Nina burst into laughter. How dare a ghost who was only around 300 years old talk to her about dying? As the smile stiffened on Nina's face, she bared her teeth, revealing fangs. Her scarlet eyes looked up impassively at the dark shadow above her head. "Aargh!" When the gigantic, dark shadow saw Nina's true form, it turned to try and escape, but it was too close to her that it was impossible for it to do so.It had only taken one step backward before Nina reached out and yanked it back."Have mercy, my lady!" The giant shadow disappeared and became a dark and scrawny-looking ghost that was less than five feet tall. "How dare you disrupt my dreams? You deserve to disintegrate into nothing!"Nina raised her hand and pressed down on top of the dark and scrawny ghost's head. "No!"The dark and scrawny ghost fell to its knees with a thump before Nina and sa
The Sacred Medicine Secret Annals also contained mystic spells from the Demon Sect. However, it was clearly written that those who practiced them would suffer divine punishment if they were to excel in it!Those were very heavy words indeed. How evil did those spells have to be if they would bring down divine punishment on those who excelled in practicing them?"Hmph! Stop trying to act as if you're smart in front of me. Have you ever seen such amazing spells? Believe it or not, I can kill your entire family with a click of my fingers?"There was a sinister tinge to Egbert's smile. With ordinary people, Egbert would only have to send out a thought to kill the entire family of his opponent instantly.However, Sebastian was being very dismissive of him. Evil spells like those required the supernatural spirit behind Egbert to sense the opponent's energy, after which they would use the same energy to find their family members.The process wasn't as mysterious as Egbert made it out
Those deceptive tricks appeared impressive, but those who Egbert healed would only end up in an even worse state, suffering even more."I haven't committed any crimes. How can I accept my punishment?" Sebastian asked disinterestedly.Brayden sneered. "You're not the one who decides whether you've committed a crime or not. Come! Subdue this defiant man!"Subdue Sebastian? Who would dare to do such a thing?The law enforcement hall members exchanged looks.Upon seeing this, Egbert stepped forward and said arrogantly, "Young man, you've seen what I can do. Compared to me, you martial arts practitioners aren't worthy of mention at all. I'll be lenient on you because you're young and ignorant. Just give up and come quietly!"Egbert was different from ordinary deacons in the Martial Arts Court. He had been hired specially as a mystic spells expert.When compared with mystic spells or cultivation, so-called martial arts weren't worthy of mention at all.That was because all mystic spe
Brayden sneered. "Kill you and cover this up? You overestimate yourselves. This is an act of protecting officials!" The bare fact of the matter was that they were going to kill everyone who knew about the Berkeleys' depraved acts. Once they had done so, the Berkeleys' perfect image would be restored. "Do you think that it's reasonable and lawful for Kayden to act the way he does?" Sebastian asked in a cold, accusing voice. "There's no helping it. Those in power must have some privileges. That's an accepted fact in the world. It's your fault for not being part of this class of people. If you're going to blame anyone, blame yourselves for being born in the wrong family!" Brayden said smugly as he shot Egbert Galen a glance. Egbert strode over to Kayden and crouched down to inspect his injuries. He tapped him with a finger. "Aargh!" The pain made huge beads of sweat drip down Kayden's face."Alright. You can stand up and take a few steps, Mr. Kayden!" Egbert said, putting his
"Oh?" Brayden glanced twice at Sebastian before asking, "What crime has Mr. Kayden committed? Tell me!" Sebastian couldn't be bothered to argue with him and just played the phone recording. The two old men frowned involuntarily when they finished listening to it."You're Inspector Jefferson, aren't you? I'd like to ask you how anyone could want to sleep with a bride at a wedding banquet in front of thousands of guests. Is he an animal? Don't the Berkeleys do this sort of thing in private?"Does this mean that when someone in the Berkeley family gets married, any of the guests or even a mere passerby can have their way with the bride in front of all their friends and family?"Javier turned red, then pale as he listened. He pointed at Sebastian and cursed him loudly. "You bastard! Stop talking nonsense!""Inspector Jefferson, since you admire Mr. Kayden's genes so much, why don't you let him improve your family's gene pool as well? You should especially let Mr. Kayden help out wi
Two black-clad men came up to the car door and opened it for Brayden, who then got out of the car. As he alighted, two elderly men also got out of the black car behind him. They came up beside Brayden and said, "Inspector Jefferson!" Brayden clasped his hands behind his back and nodded as he said, "Mr. Galen, Mr. Irving. Come and get rid of this nuisance with me today. Remember, we must not show any mercy!" The two old men nodded slightly and said, "We'll do as you say, Inspector Jefferson!"Brayden nodded slightly and said to Jayden, "Lead the way!" Jayden hastily gestured for them to go ahead. He led them happily into the Aequor.He had fled the hotel just a while ago, but in the blink of an eye, he seemed to have transformed into a different person. He walked into the hotel with his chest puffed up, and his entire demeanor had changed. The attendants on the first floor looked at him in surprise. "Did that handsome young guy go and get himself an invigorating shot of so
