However, before Avery could speak, Enzo stood up from where he sat with the judges. He had a cold expression on his face as he said, "Dr. Liddon, the result is clear. I hope that you can accept the results and honor the bet that you made. You must also apologize to Dr. Kantz at once."Avery was startled. He turned pale and looked at Enzo as he said, "M-Marquess Romano… I—""Honor the bet that you made," Sebastian cut him off.Avery gritted his teeth as he stared at Sebastian and said, "Ballard! You—"He took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and ground his teeth. However, he slowly kneeled. Once he had finished groveling, he shot to his feet and pointed furiously at Sebastian, saying, "Ballard, just you wait! I'll return the humiliation I suffered today to you many times over!"Avery was about to turn and leave when Enzo spoke icily, "Dr. Liddon, don't even think about leaving before apologizing to Dr. Kantz."As soon as he finished speaking, several burly bodyguards blocked A
This was also the first time Sebastian had the opportunity to use the Galadis Acupuncture to save a person on the verge of death. He immediately took out his silver needles to treat the young man, but Avery suddenly stepped in to block him."What do you think you're doing? Even my senior couldn't save him. What could you do to a dead body?"Clearly, Avery didn't want Sebastian to get near the patient. Though he wasn't sure if Sebastian could bring someone back to life, he couldn't allow Nexon Leeds to be further humiliated."Get lost!" Sebastian stared at Avery and said, "Just because you and your Healer Sect can't save him doesn't mean no one else can!"As he spoke, he stepped forward. A gust of wind pushed Avery aside, creating a path for Sebastian."You can't save anyone! He's clearly dead! You're just trying to grab attention!" Avery pointed at Sebastian and shouted angrily."Young man, even I am helpless here. What can you possibly do? Don't humiliate yourself," Nexon said
At that moment, Sebastian carefully examined the young prince. He was exceptional in diagnosis by view or look. After determining the young prince's condition, he raised his hand, and nine silver needles simultaneously flew out. To everyone's astonishment, each needle entered the prince's acupuncture points. The tails of the needles quivered slightly and emitted a humming sound as powerful energy flowed through them into the prince's body, stimulating his vital points to resume functioning.Dark energy slowly emanated from the prince's body. As the dark energy dissipated, the prince's chest heaved, and he began to breathe again. At the same time, the heart monitor next to him changed from a flatline to a waveform. The beeping sound caught Dr. Morgan Catel's attention, and he turned to the heart monitor in disbelief."My goodness, there's a heartbeat again!" an astonished Ytalian doctor exclaimed."Ladies and gentlemen, the moment of witnessing a miracle has arrived. The youn
Nexon and Avery's faces were ashen.The young prince, who Nexon had declared would not survive, was saved by Sebastian in less than ten minutes.No matter how the Healer Sect tried to argue, the facts rendered their explanations powerless.The worst part was that Nexon had admitted on camera that he was helpless, indirectly proving that even his medical skills were far inferior to Sebastian’s.He deeply regretted his actions. If he hadn't been so impatient and had let Sebastian treat the prince first while he "guided" from the side, he might've been able to share some credit and avoid embarrassing the Healer Sect.But now, it was too late. Nexon felt his face burning with shame and couldn't stand to stay any longer. However, just as he reached for the door, a reporter from Janover blocked his way."Dr. Leeds, didn't you say earlier that the prince was beyond saving? What do you have to say about Dr. Ballard's life-saving skills?""Dr. Leeds, hasn't the Healer Sect always cla
Without waiting for Sebastian's response, Rosalie smiled and said, "Mr. Yates, when you return to Steinberg, Sebastian and I will definitely visit you to welcome you back."Hearing this, Ezra stroked his beard and smiled. "Rosalie, your sweet words are always so charming. Do send my regards to your grandfather when you return."Rosalie smiled and agreed. Then, Ezra exchanged a few more pleasantries with Sebastian before sending the couple off through the main door.Once they were seated in the car, Rosalie clung to Sebastian's arm and asked, "You're not angry at me for making the decision on our behalf and agreeing to visit Ezra, right?"Sebastian smiled and shook his head. Had it been left to his usual temper and personality, he would have politely declined Ezra's invitation. However, he was well aware of Rosalie's thoughtful intentions."Although Ezra is not from a prestigious family, his influence is incredibly vast. Even the Beckard family has to respect him. Perhaps, with a s
Rosalie's smooth skin and graceful curves were perfectly accentuated by a simple white chiffon dress.As he sat in the main position, Jace's eyes briefly flickered with lust before he replaced them with a gentlemanly smile. He pointed to the empty seat next to Whitney and said, "Welcome, please have a seat."Whitney raised her head, giving Sebastian and Rosalie a complex look, but remained silent."Hmph, why are these two scoundrels here too?" Mabel muttered under her breath.Theresa, on the other hand, cast a few appreciative glances at Sebastian."Alright, since everyone is here, let's officially begin today's agenda," said a middle-aged man sitting next to Jace as he gave him a slight nod.Jace cleared his throat and stood up. "Ladies and gentlemen, first of all, thank you for honoring us with your presence at this industry event hosted by Bashmore Group."I believe everyone involved in the beauty industry knows that the current market atmosphere is quite unfriendly, with fie
The voice wasn't loud, but everyone heard it.They all looked in the direction of the voice and saw a handsome man in a black suit staring coldly at Jace."Who is he?""I know, right? Mr. Cobb is reasonable; everyone would get their pay accordingly, right? Why is this guy objecting to it?""Wait, isn't the girl beside him Ms. Griffin?"Jace snorted coldly after hearing the murmurs. "Mr. Ballard, I think Mr. Cobb's suggestion makes sense. We are all in the same industry; avoiding conflict of interest would be beneficial to exposing the market to a bigger scale. Isn't this a great idea?" he asked.Then, he added, "Or dare I say, you don't wish to share this advancement and advantages with everyone."Jace's words put Sebastian in an opposing spot.Instantly, many pairs of eyes filled with hostility landed on Sebastian."Sorry, Rosé Corporation is not interested in this. I shall take my leave now." Sebastian stood up and prepared to leave.Whitney quickly stopped him and whispe
How could a small company like Frostwave Corporation go against a big company like Bashmore Group?"Mr. Cobb, Frostwave Corporation would love to cooperate with Bashmore Group." Mabel stood up and tried to curry favor by smiling at Jace.Jace nodded satisfactorily. "Mr. Ballard, the actual sales of Arctic Snow Mask are on par with Iceheart facial mask. If you insist on withdrawing from the alliance, it means that many domestic channels and advertising resources will be out of reach for Rosé Corporation."It was a threat indeed.Sebastian smiled coldly and said, "Is this how the Beckard family runs their business? No more cunning schemes, just outright force? I don't care about the others, but I won't play along with this."Everyone was stunned, and they stared at Sebastian in shock.Sebastian's words were like a slap on Jace's face. His smile froze as he stared at Sebastian, and his hands clenched into fists."Sebastian!" Fergus slammed the table and stood up. "Mr. Beckard is ki
