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
Theresa took the bottle of pills from Dante, opened it, and peered inside. She sniffed it.The bottle emanated an herbal medicinal scent, but very quickly, a strong, sweet smell rushed into her nostrils."A coat of sugar?" Theresa frowned slightly and poured some of the pills into her hand. She studied them for a long time before picking one up and placing it carefully in her mouth."That can't be right! This isn't medicine at all. They're vitamins!" Theresa turned her head to look at Mabel.If the bottle of medicine had contained the medicine that Sebastian had left for Whitney, she would never have thrown it out and replaced it with vitamins!The only person who was in close contact with Whitney was Mabel."Ms. Livington, why are you looking at me like that? I-I've never touched Ms. Sutton's drawer. You can't possibly suspect me of switching the medicine, can you?" Mabel said evasively. Theresa frowned and looked at her closely. At that moment, Fergus arrived on the scene
At that moment, everything seemed to become clear to Theresa."Ms. Livington, I don't know what you mean," Mabel explained weakly, giving Theresa an awkward smile. Theresa sneered and looked at Whitney on the hospital bed. She shook her head slightly. "Don't worry, Ms. Lucero. I won't expose you. "However, Whit is my best friend, and I don't want anything that endangers her to happen again. Otherwise, I will reveal everything that you and Fergus did without holding anything back."You should know how important Whit is to the Suttons. If anything happens to her, do you think the Suttons will let you escape unscathed?"Mabel broke out in a cold sweat at what Theresa had said. Nevertheless, she had never expected Theresa to help her keep it a secret.The truth was that when Theresa finally realized what was going on, her impression of Sebastian had changed drastically as well.If it was all just a plot, it would mean that Sebastian did have medical skills. Someone like him was
"It's a good thing I was here tonight. You may not be so lucky next time," Lyanna said. She got up to leave, but Rosalie rose hurriedly and called after her, "Wait!""Is there anything else?" Lyanna turned her head slightly and fixed her beautiful eyes on Rosalie."What kind of person is Sebastian? I mean…" After Lyanna had told her who she was, Rosalie felt as if her thoughts were in turmoil. Even Sebastian, whom she had always loved and admired, had suddenly become unfamiliar to her.If Sebastian had just been a traditional medicine doctor, she could have accepted it. However, now Sebastian was keeping a female spirit around him. Not only that, the spirit was his servant. This was beyond the scope of Rosalie's understanding. Sebastian was rapidly becoming like a riddle to her."Have you heard of sages? Mr. Ballard is probably like them," Lyanna said. In a flash, she had disappeared without a trace.Rosalie remained quiet for a long time before she started the engine once mor
The short, fat man who had smashed up Rosalie's car window tossed his rock aside and hurried over. His eyes were bulging as he looked greedily at the beautiful woman standing in front of them. She was just as pretty as Rosalie was."Boss, I deserve some credit for the work I've done, don't I? Can you give me this chick?" the short, fat man asked, rubbing his hands together as he licked his lips.Lyanna looked at Chet and the short, fat man. She covered her mouth and giggled as she said, "I don't know what kind of day it is, but I do know that next year, this will be your death anniversary! Which of you wants to die first?""I… Huh?" Chet had been about to lunge forward and grab Lyanna, but then he realized what she had said.It would be their death anniversary on this day next year? What did that mean?Before he could recover his senses, Lyanna tittered and nodded. "Alright, you'll die first."She flicked her sleeve aside and revealed her slender, pale hands. Her foot-long, brigh
When Chet and the lackeys looked more closely, they saw that the car parked in the distance was a personal car and that there was a gorgeous woman sitting inside it.They were delighted at their good fortune. This was an opportunity they could not miss!As they were in such a remote area, they barely ever saw any women, let alone a beautiful one like Rosalie.Therefore, Chet gave the order, and the thugs all surged forward. They were barely able to contain their excitement."Hello, beautiful. What has upset you so much at this late hour? Tell us about it. Even if we can't make you happy, you can make us happy!" The short, fat man in the lead reached out to pull Rosalie's car door open as he spoke.Rosalie was beside herself with fear. She hastily locked the car and pulled her phone out of her bag as she screamed loudly at the men outside her car. "What do you want? Stay away from my car, or… or I'll call the police!"The fat, short man glanced at Rosalie, who looked frightened an
Sebastian heard Rosalie sobbing behind him. He turned around abruptly, but Rosalie rushed over to him and slapped him in the face before he could explain."Sebastian! I rushed over here as soon as I heard that something had happened in Steinberg! You… You're a jerk!" Rosalie was weeping. She had been planning on telling Sebastian on the day of the martial arts battle about the good news of the huge order that Arctic Snow Group had received from Lorcan. However, while eavesdropping on a conversation between Oliver and Belinda, she found out about the huge commotion over in Steinberg.When she heard that all eight of the Celestial realm experts that the Warrior League had sent to protect Whitney had all been killed and that the latter had disappeared, Rosalie couldn't contain her anxiety.She had rushed back to Steinberg at once.When she found no sign of Sebastian at the Moonlyte Club, she had come to the convenience store instead.She saw that it was lit up and had run straight
Hank and Taylor broke out into a cold sweat when they saw what had happened. Terence was like a god to them!Who would have thought that Terence, who had had the upper hand just a moment ago, would have stood vacantly on the spot just because Sebastian had thrust the rusty bronze mirror at him? He had just stood still and waited for Sebastian to come and kill him!"Run, hurry!" Before he could think too much about it, Taylor growled in a low voice and turned to flee to the foot of the mountain.Hank only came to his senses when Taylor was already far away from him. He was about to go after him, but he had only gone a few steps when a ghostly, feminine figure appeared and blocked his path."You—" The moment Hank turned, his soul almost left his body from fright at what he saw.Only a moment had passed since Terence's murder, but the eerie woman in front of him had already cut off more than a dozen heads. Whenever she cut a head off, dark energy would be sucked into her emerald
Terence wielded his sword. Wherever the blade pointed, the air was sliced apart instantly!Sebastian forced himself to concentrate and raised his sword to shield his chest!There was a clang as Terence's sword crashed down on Sebastian's, and sparks flew up at once. Sebastian couldn't help but take a few steps back. He felt the energy roiling inside him and almost spat out a mouthful of blood."My lord!" Nina felt extremely anxious when she saw that Sebastian was at a disadvantage. She ignored Sebastian's previous command and leaped over to him to hold him up. "My lord, are you alright?" Nina asked in concern. Sebastian was slightly flushed, and he looked as if his energy was becoming erratic. He shook his head slightly and pushed Nina away. He handed Whitney to her and said, "Protect Whitney well. If anything happens to her, come and see me with your head!" Nina turned to Rose, who was beside her. She wanted to protest, but Sebastian waved a hand and said, "Lyanna was hur
"It's a pity that you'll never understand," Sebastian said.Terence's face flushed. Who would've expected a young man in his twenties like Sebastian to be so perceptive? He was even more advanced than Terence in the Way of Wisdom!"My lord, I was trapped in the front yard just now. No matter how I walked, I couldn't get through the door. That's why…" Lyanna trailed off and hung her head, looking shamefaced.Technically, she was a spirit. How had she fallen prey to the Bewitchment spell? Even Lyanna was puzzled."It's the Soulbell!" Sebastian turned abruptly to look at Terence.Lyanna felt that she couldn't have been trapped by the Bewitchment spell because she didn't actually have a body. Meanwhile, Nina was a thousand-year-old snake deity, and ordinary formations couldn't contain her at all.Therefore, there was only one possibility. Terence had external help. The Soulbell was the only possible explanation.Nina and Rose arrived as well."Protect Whitney," Sebastian said befor
Sebastian eyed the middle-aged man and laughed coldly. "You surprised me too. Do you want to be a sacrifice for my sword?"Sebastian gently shook Purity, which he was holding. Immediately, it felt as if a bolt of lightning had struck the entire yard!Hank and the others began mocking him at once. "Ballard, you are bold out of ignorance. Do you know who is standing in front of you? Let me tell you, it's the seventh elder of Sword Towers, Mr. Manderly."One of them added, "Consider it an honor for you to be killed by Mr. Manderly."Sebastian raised an eyebrow and squinted at Terence as he said, "If I'm guessing correctly, Nina and the others must have fallen into your trap. That's why they haven't arrived yet. Right?""You're observant!" Terence smiled faintly and said, "If you hadn't stepped into Draconem Cathedral right before I did, you would be stuck in a Bewitchment trap, just like them."Honestly, it's a miracle for someone of your age to have this level of training. However,
While Taylor stood there, stunned, Sebastian bore down on him. Upon seeing Sebastian raising his fist to hit him once more, Taylor hastily pulled himself together and met Sebastian's punch with his own."Are… Are you all stupid?" Blood was seeping out of the back of Taylor's hand as he looked at the people behind him."You've always liked fighting alone, Taylor. We were afraid that we would spoil your fun." Despite what Hank said, he turned on his heel and sent a spinning kick at Sebastian to block his path.Sebastian felt a strong force rushing toward him, and he immediately stopped in the midst of pursuing Taylor. He moved aside and aimed a roundhouse kick at Hank. Yet another wave of energy exploded, and fear flashed across Hank's face. The blow had seemed plain, but it embodied the mysterious principles of martial arts.Even an expert who was two levels higher than Hank would have had his bones broken by that kick, let alone someone who was only at the first level of the Ce
