Apart from the Beckards, there was no one who could save Trevor's life. After all, he was the one who had arranged for those assassins from the Slaughter Gods.As soon as his collusion with an organization of assassins like the Slaughter Gods was revealed, even the Northmans couldn't save him!However, Trevor knew very well what kind of person Jace was. If he called him, he would be under Jace's thumb until the day he died."Hmph. Even if I die, I'm going to drag Ballard down with me!" There was a vicious look in Trevor's eyes as he grabbed his phone and called Jace. "Hey, Mr. Northman! I heard that you plotted to get Sebastian caught by the Alpha Strike Force team. Congratulations! Not only have you gotten revenge, you may even have gotten the formula for a new anti-cancer drug. "When you start prospering in the future, don't forget about me!" Jace's voice was laced with scorn when it came over the phone. Trevor's expression darkened when he heard him. It turned out that Jace
"Jace, just spit it out. I'm completely at your mercy this time. As long as I can get past this current challenge, I'll agree to any condition you set, as long as you don't ask me for my life," Trevor said coldly.On the other end of the phone, Jace was silent for a moment before he said coldly, "Alright! Since you're being so forthright, Mr. Northman, I won't beat around the bush any longer. "I only have three conditions. The first is the formula for the Arctic Snow Mask, and the second is half the profits from the new anti-cancer drug. Lastly, I want 60% of the shares in Heritage Pharmaceuticals, which is under the Northmans."What?Heritage Pharmaceuticals was one of the largest pharmaceutical companies under Northstar Pharma. Its jurisdiction included four private hospitals in Steinberg and Sunway owned by the Northmans. It also had a pharmaceutical factory. If Jace took 60% of the shares in Ancient Pharmaceuticals, it would be equal to taking several hundred million in prof
"If you really do as you say and indulge Grandpa and his old comrades' hobbies as well as guarantee their health, you'd be doing a wonderful thing." Liam smiled in excitement.Wyatt had called Sebastian to the sanatorium in the middle of the night because he admired Sebastian's superb medical skills.After Wyatt explained his own situation and some of his old comrades' situations, Sebastian immediately produced a long-term treatment plan.The most important part of the treatment plan was letting Wyatt and his comrades indulge their appetites while simultaneously treating their illnesses.Wyatt immediately decided to call his old comrades the next day and invite them to the Steinberg sanatorium. After that, he discussed the specifics of welcoming them with Joe before he told Liam to drive Sebastian back home."Mr. Holman Senior has been in the military for pretty much his entire life, and he's spilled his blood and risked his life for the sake of the nation. What I do pales in comp
Although the Northmans were using the banquet to show their support for Arctic Snow Group, they still sent an invitation to Bashmore Group.Jace gave Fergus two of the three invitations he had received and sneered, "Mr. Cobb, I'm sure you know what to do, don't you?"Fergus took the invitations obsequiously. He said in a flattering tone, "Don't worry, Mr. Beckard. I will definitely get Whitney for you!"Jace swept a disdainful glance over him and waved a hand as he said, "Go about your business."Fergus thanked him profusely and left Jace's room. He rushed straight over to Frostwave Corporation.…The next evening, when Sebastian and Rosalie arrived at the entrance to Pullman Hotel, they bumped into Fergus and Whitney, who were walking toward them. Fergus had changed into a black tuxedo, while Whitney had a gauzy black gown on. The hem of her skirt was just high enough to reveal her fair, slender calves.The moment they appeared, Whitney's outfit immediately attracted the atte
On either side of the door were a dozen beautiful women dressed in gowns."I heard that the Northmans have invited the best chef in Sunway for tonight's banquet. They even managed to invite the head chef of Sunway's top restaurant." Fergus looked envious as he spoke. He led Whitney and Mabel toward the banquet hall entrance. When they arrived at the banquet hall's entrance, Whitney, Fergus, and Mabel bumped into Sebastian again."Sebastian, let me give you some advice. Tonight's banquet is held by the Northmans. Arctic Snow Group is only a recently established small company, so you'd better be self-aware and just stand at the door to watch," Fergus said importantly. "The important figures that are inside could crush Arctic Snow Group just by coughing." He looked triumphant as he brought Whitney and Mabel to the banquet hall entrance."Please show your invitations," the middle-aged man at the door said impassively. He was wearing a uniform. Fergus had brought his invitations, b
Theodore hesitated before smiling as he said, "Alright. However, you must not neglect Mr. Ballard. If there's anyone there who's being tactless, there's no need to be polite with them.""Whether or not the Northmans will be able to return to our former glory will depend on whether we can get the formula of that new anti-cancer drug tonight."Zeke smiled as he got up and said, "Theodore, don't worry. I know what I'm doing.""By the way, don't offend Mr. Ballard's ex-wife, either!" Theodore reminded him again.Zeke nodded and picked up the walkie-talkie before heading to the door."The three of them are Mr. Ballard's friends. Treat them politely."No matter what, Whitney was Sebastian's ex-wife. The Northmans would still have to treat her politely on Sebastian's behalf.…Fergus, Whitney, and Mabel only waited for a moment before the middle-aged man with the walkie-talkie walked up to them, beaming. He bowed and said, "I wasn't aware that esteemed guests like you had arrived. P
Whitney felt that she had misjudged Fergus.When she thought back on what had happened to them in the past, no matter how big the difficulties that Frostwave Corporation faced, Fergus had always been able to help her get through them with just a phone call or a casual comment. Whitney couldn't help feeling a slight pang of guilt. It seemed that she had been too harsh on Fergus in the past.At that thought, Whitney smiled gratefully at him.When Fergus noticed Whitney was finally smiling at him in acknowledgment, he grabbed the opportunity and said, "What do you think, Winnie? I didn't lie to you, did I? We didn't need invitations at all. We could have settled it all just by talking to them.""Alright, let's go in." As she walked into the banquet hall, Whitney turned to look at Sebastian, who was behind her. Mabel also looked at Sebastian and Rosalie, who were talking to the security guards. She snorted disdainfully.Life would always be hard when comparing oneself to others.
The Northmans didn't just have extensive connections in the pharmaceutical industry. They were also very influential in the fields of business and politics.The Northmans held the banquet at the Pullman Hotel, the best hotel in Steinberg. Naturally, Larys was in attendance.If the Northmans decided to construct factories in Steinberg and start production, it would be a good political achievement for Larys.As the banquet hadn't officially begun, everyone was chatting in clusters of twos and threes.Fergus was talking animatedly with a few business owners in the Steinberg pharmaceutical industry. Out of the corner of his eye, he spotted the VIP lounge and saw Sebastian and Rosalie eating fancy-looking desserts. He immediately frowned.He felt that a small company like Sebastian and Rosalie's was not worthy of entering the VIP lounge. They had probably gotten into the VIP lounge by shamelessly using Fergus' status and name!After all, many people had seen him talking to Sebastian w
