Frowning, Whitney asked curiously, "Did you manage to get Dr. Pike to join us?"Mabel shook her head and replied, "No. Dr. Pike said he wanted to retreat from society and focus on honing his medical expertise."Whitney rubbed her temples and sighed.One of her plans to expand the company was by hiring Jonah to be Frostwave Corporation's consultant doctor. It looked like they had to set that plan aside for now."But, I got the formula for the Goldcrow pill, Ms. Sutton!"Mabel sounded extremely pleased with herself as she sent the formula Sebastian gave her to Whitney through her phone.Whitney frowned and asked, "The formula for the Goldcrow pill? What's that?"Mabel swiftly explained everything, and she even played a recording of her call with Jonah."Is the Goldcrow pill really that incredible? Even Dr. Pike wouldn't be able to create something like it?" Whitney exclaimed. She was dumbstruck.Mabel hummed in confirmation and nodded before adding, "Now that we have the formu
"That's enough!" Whitney snapped in fury. "What do you mean by this, Sebastian? Are you telling me to give up on this project?""That's right," Sebastian replied."And then what?" Whitney questioned. "Become like you, someone who daydreams in that little shop of his? I'm so disappointed in you, Sebastian!""Hasn't Frostwave Corporation given you enough?" Sebastian asked.Taking a deep breath, Whitney declared, "You're so ignorant, Sebastian! I'm definitely going to do my best to carry out the Goldcrow pill project! The more you insist on trying to stop me, the harder I'll work to make it a success!"I'll prove to you that you're not the only one who can make Frostwave Corporation successful! I can do it too!"After a long silence, Sebastian sighed exasperatedly and said, "I've given you enough warnings. I hope you won't come begging me for help in the future.""I'll never beg for your help!" Whitney shrieked before terminating the call. The conversation ended on a sour note.Wh
For four consecutive years, Isabel topped the list of powerful businesswomen in Steinberg as the one with the most potential and influence.It was not at all an exaggeration to call her the queen of Steinberg's business world.In the last year, Isabel was all Whitney could talk about.She was the person Whitney wanted to be and was also a role model for all the women in Steinberg's business world.Isabel was the reason why Whitney changed.Sebastian frowned when he heard that yet another person had come under Chester's recommendation."I don't need five minutes. I've gotten everything I need to know. I can treat you," Sebastian said.Isabel was taken aback.All of Steinberg was aware of her condition, but she had consulted with numerous renowned doctors, and no one was able to treat it.She even offered a handsome fee. Alas, it was to no avail.In fact, Isabel even said that as long as someone could find a cure for her strange condition, she was willing to marry that person,
"Take everything off?" Isabel repeated. Startled, she turned bright red.She did not expect Sebastian to bluntly ask that she take off her clothes and underwear.Even though she was a career woman with a long list of accolades, she had never dated anyone before.In the last four years, she did not even hold a man's hand, let alone strip naked in front of one …After hesitating briefly, Isabel turned around. With her back toward Sebastian, she slowly took off her dress, revealing her smooth and flawless back.The gentle curves of her neck and shoulders as well as her slender waist made Sebastian gulp. He was a little dazed.Meanwhile, Isabel was so embarrassed that she was trembling.She slowly took off her black lace underwear before swiftly lying head down on the bed. Her ample bosom was squished against the mattress."I'm ready," Isabel muttered with her head turned to the side. She dared not look at Sebastian.Her cheeks were flamed.Sebastian took in the voluptuous physiq
"Sure, if I have the time," Sebastian responded non-committedly.Isabel left.After getting into her car, she called her secretary and instructed, "Look into someone for me. I want all the information there is on him. He's the first man in four years to have touched me and seen me naked. I'll be seeing a lot of him from now on."…Meanwhile, over at the CEO's office in Frostwave Corporation, Whitney asked Mabel, "Is everything ready for the press conference?""Yes, everything's ready," Mabel replied.Whitney got up. "Come. Let's head over there now."The press conference was extremely important. She was not going to allow anything to go wrong.The lobby of Frostwave Corporation had been set up for the press conference. Several media channels were broadcasting the event in real-time.The words "Goldcrow Pill" were featured boldly on the large backdrop.As the crowd clapped, Whitney walked up to the podium with a smile and said, "Firstly, I'd like to thank all of you for taking
At the shop, Sebastian turned off the live broadcast of the press conference and chuckled wryly.It was clear that the things Whitney said toward the end were directed at him, but he did not care.That being said, it seemed like Frostwave Corporation's strategy to promote the Goldcrow pill was going to cause trouble for them.It might even lead to a huge fiasco.But, Sebastian could not be bothered to worry about it.He had already cautioned Whitney, and he could not do anything if she refused to listen.Just then, Rosalie skipped over to him and called out, "Dr. Ballard.""Do you need something else from me, Ms. Griffin?" Sebastian asked.Rosalie pouted and asked, "What's the matter? Do you not like spending time with me?"Huh?Startled, Sebastian smiled awkwardly, "I wouldn't say that.""Really? Well, my family is organizing a dinner event in Steinberg. It's happening on the day after tomorrow. Do you want to come with me?" Rosalie asked with a hopeful smile."A dinner ev
Rosalie's words fell like a bomb.It felt as if the temperature had dropped several degrees.Fiancée?Shocked, Whitney stared wide-eyed at Sebastian before nodding and remarking with a sneer, "My, my. Sebastian. You even have a fiancée now. That explains why you agreed to the divorce without a fight. It's because of her, huh?"Sebastian frowned and glared at Rosalie who pretended to not notice him.She rolled her eyes and stuck her tongue out before averting her gaze."Get the hell out of my way!"Whitney shoved Sebastian before marching into the estate in a huff.Mabel glowered at Sebastian and fumed, "You disgust me! You brought this vixen here to show off in front of Ms. Sutton, didn't you? What a shame. Your plan failed. Ms. Sutton doesn't care about you anymore."She ran after Whitney.Frowning hard, Sebastian let out a dry chuckle before exhaling.Rosalie came over and muttered, "Are you alright, Dr. Ballard?""I'm fine.""I'm sorry. I just wanted to piss off your ex
When Fergus finished speaking, he finally noticed the innocent yet seductive-looking woman beside Sebastian.She was a captivating beauty and Whitney's equal in every way, including figure, appearance, and bearing.Most importantly, she gave off an entirely different aura.Fergus felt as if she had ignited a flame in his heart.Cursing to himself, he wondered how Sebastian managed to hook up with such a gorgeous woman again …"Does it have anything to do with you?" Sebastian retorted in response to Fergus' rude questioning.Fergus had graduated from medical school and was considered one of Steinberg's ten most talented young men.He ran a pharmaceutical company of his own and had a net worth of over a billion dollars.As he had published numerous academic articles related to the field of medicine, he gained a lot of recognition and became one of the most well-received young professionals in Steinberg.However, Sebastian did not like Fergus.Firstly, it was because Fergus kept
Gary bowed to Sebastian. "200 experts at Supreme Grandmaster level have already arrived in Steinberg and are at your service at any time, Mr. Ballard."Sebastian drew in a sharp breath. 200 Supreme Grandmaster level experts had gathered in just a few days' time. That was a very impressive show of skill in assembling people."Thank you, gentlemen. Let's exchange our contact numbers. It'll be easier to communicate." Sebastian exchanged phone numbers with them before leaving.While Sebastian was speeding up with his plans, Hunter had not been idle. He had secretly transferred over around 40-50 Grandmaster level experts from all the Sloanes' organizations nationwide. As Elton had said, people like Sebastian should either be left alone or killed in one strike. They couldn't let him have the chance to catch his breath. Ordinary people couldn't ever understand how terrifying a yellow paper charm expert could be. They could send out supernatural entities like spirits or demons even from
Belinda and the high-level authorities had a very good relationship, so the world was familiar with her and the Warrior League, which was why it was so famous.The members of the Warrior League were able to get a lot of help from their legal counterparts because of Belinda's connections, which was why they appeared to have more influence than other sects.However, that did not mean the Warrior League could stand on its own.The truth was that the Sword Towers wasn't the only martial arts sect that could stand against the Warrior League.It was only because of Belinda's relationship with the high-level authorities and her own abilities that had kept things peaceful until now. Recently, the Elderstone Sect and the Sword Towers had joined forces with the Dragon Sect and had made a big show of announcing their opposition to the Warrior League. That had resulted in martial arts forces who coveted the Warrior League or even those who desired to devour it to turn their eyes on Ventus
Looking at the fruits of his labor, Sebastian wiped the sweat off his brow in satisfaction and headed out with the newly refined energy replenishing pills in a hurry.He had to keep his word, after all. Since he had already promised Blake to bring more energy replenishing pills for Belinda, he wouldn't go back on his word.When Sebastian appeared at Ventus Estate with his bag dangling from his arm, several of the guards came up to him from afar. "What are you holding, Mr. Ballard? Let me help you."The night Sebastian had sent Gary and the other four elders flying with a single slap, the guards had also been present. They had been thoroughly intimidated by Sebastian's power.That slap had been enough to shock the heavens and the earth.Therefore, everyone in the Warrior League, especially those in Steinberg, was filled with respect for Sebastian. They were much more respectful to him than before."Take them all in and give them to Blake," Sebastian said, putting the bag on the fl
Gary scowled. The slap had almost shattered his internal organs. He was lying when he said that he hadn't been severely injured, but Belinda had a sharp eye, and he wasn't able to lie to her.Compared to the medicine, Belinda was more curious about how Sebastian's skills had improved so quickly. Just 20 days or so ago, she had still been confident of defeating him within 100 moves.Now, however, Belinda could sense that Sebastian's skills were roughly on par with hers. She had a strong feeling that Sebastian was hiding a huge secret. "Gentlemen, I'm wondering about how Sebastian improved so quickly," Belinda said and compared Sebastian's previous skills with his current abilities. After she finished speaking, the elders looked flummoxed. Even if Sebastian had been training day and night without rest, he would never have been able to reach the level of the Celestial realm in his twenties. "Do you mean to say that Sebastian is hiding a big secret, Madam Dragon?" Gary asked, frown
"No! We get one each!" Edward moved quickly and grabbed one bottle, which he held close to his chest.Drake and the others were dumbstruck. Why had Gary and Edward switched sides after getting slapped?Gary and Edward glanced at the others. They both returned to their seats as if nothing had happened.When Terry saw that the two of them were walking swiftly, as if they hadn't been injured at all, he finally lifted his head and ate the pill that Sebastian had given them. As the spiritual energy in his body was restored, Drake and the others finally understood why Gary and Edward had been fighting for the bottle of medicine that Sebastian had given them. The pills could restore their spiritual energy very quickly, and they could also soothe any internal injuries. To experts like them, having those pills would be like having an extra life.Terry left the arena. He had turned red, and he approached Belinda to whisper something in her ear. He wanted her to ask Sebastian for more of
Edward and Gary joined the fray. They stood to the left and to the right, and their calloused palms reached out to hit Sebastian on the shoulder.At the same time, Terry lunged at Sebastian, and his palm came crashing down on the top of Sebastian's head. Sebastian moved slightly, and in the blink of an eye, he was already at the other end of the arena."Gentlemen, do forgive me for what I'm about to do." Sebastian had given way to several moves to show his respect for the elders, but that didn't mean that he would not retaliate."Forgive you? Die!" Gary was furious as he reached out to slap Sebastian in the face.Sebastian held one arm behind his back as he waved a hand casually.There was a slap as two palms collided, and Gary flew backward. As soon as he landed, he spat out a mouthful of blood."Mr. Jorson!" Belinda instinctively leaned forward as she looked worriedly at Gary.Before she could stop the other elders, four more figures were sent flying backward through the air
"I admit defeat. You are more powerful than you appear." Dylan had turned red. He bowed to Sebastian.He knew that Sebastian had held back on his strength when hitting him. Otherwise, there was no way he would still be standing there unharmed."You're useless! What have I always taught you?" Terry stood up angrily. Since his apprentice had been defeated, he would have to regain their pride himself. Sebastian looked up at the sky, which was slowly turning brighter. He smiled and said, "Is there anyone else who wants to battle me? Why don't you just do it all at once? If we have to do things one at a time, it'll be morning by the time we're done." Elara had been watching from the second floor, and she couldn't help feeling nervous for Sebastian after hearing what he had said. Even Belinda wouldn't dare to be so cocky. Terry and the others were all top experts in the Celestial realm and above. Did Sebastian have a death wish?"Ms. Lucox, don't pinch me." Elara had been pinching h
Blake smiled contemptuously. These old men were much too arrogant."What do you think, Madam Dragon?" Blake ignored Drake and the others and spoke directly to Belinda with his head lowered."The Five Great Mountains requires Mr. Ballard to defeat three of the respected elders of the Warrior League. What do you think, Mr. Ballard?" Belinda was smiling brightly. Blake was so quick-witted. He had silently set up a trap for the elders and pushed them in. In a battle, none of the six Warrior League elders present in the hall would be a match for Sebastian."Let's do it appropriately." Sebastian smiled and nodded.The elders shot Sebastian a sideway glance. They felt that he was being very bold. He was obviously hinting to them to say that he would be merciful. "You are a very bold young man!" The old man sitting right at the end huffed coldly at Sebastian.His name was Terry Henson, and although he was ranked last among the seven elders, he was actually the strongest among them.
Even if Mike's men hadn't left, they would be no match for Elton at all.Belinda smiled brightly and nodded. Sebastian had saved her daughter's life, and she couldn't refuse such a minor request."Madam Dragon, please allow me to be blunt. There has been no precedent of people from the Warrior League acting as bodyguards for people who have nothing to do with us," one of the elders said as he stood up, looking displeased.His name was Bertie Zoll, and he was one of the seven main elders of the Warrior League. He was at the third level of the Celestial realm and a respected figure in the Warrior League. In fact, even Belinda had to show him respect at certain moments."Mr. Zoll, Mr. Ballard isn't that kind of person. Since he asked to borrow them, he's sure to return them." Belinda looked pointedly at Sebastian, as if she was waiting for him to speak up."Don't worry, Madam Dragon. I'll be sure to return them within ten days," Sebastian said, bowing. Yet another old man laughed c
