Chapter 8

Author: Wendell Mayhew
"Are you insulting me?" Mabel fumed.

"Who else, if not you? You came on behalf of Frostwave Corporation? What makes you qualified to represent them? Your shamelessness?"

Mabel ground her teeth in anger. Reining in her fury, she growled, "I know you're upset because of the divorce, Sebastian, but you should know that things won't work out between you and Ms. Sutton. You'll only be dragging her down if you stay with her!

"Plus, you're the one who has done wrong by Ms. Sutton, not the other way around! You said that you were preparing to give Ms. Sutton the Goldcrow pill as a gift for your third wedding anniversary. Are you refusing to keep your word now just because you've divorced? Are you even a man?"

She continued, "I'm telling you right now! Whether you like it or not, you're going to hand over the formula for the Goldcrow pill today! If anything, I can just tell Ms. Sutton to take you to court. After all, the formula counts as marital property, doesn't it? The court will declare

This man is more like Jesus in every way. Imagine if you are in this situation? I don't think you could do what this Sebastian do.

    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

    However, Kayden's rage was futile. Even the deacons beside him advised him in low voices not to try and issue a challenge. Otherwise, he was sure to end up in an even worse state.After settling the bill, the deacons helped Kayden into the elevator.Kayden was badly injured. Not only was he now disfigured, but he also had fractures of varying degrees in his shoulders and ribs. When he was brought to the hospital, despite being given three times the usual dose of anesthetic, he still let out bloodcurdling yells from inside the operating room. Amidst his screams, he swore inwardly that he would use all the connections of the Berkeleys to crush Sebastian completely!…Back at the restaurant, Candy sneered as her gaze swept over Sebastian. She had been with Kayden the entire time. Beating up Kayden was different from destroying the Lynches. The Lynches were also an elite martial arts family in Acorn City, but their status couldn't be compared to the Berkeleys at all.The Berke

    "Mr. Berkeley, is it? It doesn't matter whether you're an heir, all adults must take responsibility for their words and actions," Sebastian said icily."Kill him!" Kayden shouted.He was convulsing with pain. Although the wounds on his shoulders weren't fatal, it was also the spot on the body with the least amount of flesh and the thinnest skin.Sebastian had pieced through his bones with that move, and it wasn't the kind of pain that an ordinary person could withstand. It was surprising that Kayden hadn't fainted from the pain.A few deacons from the Martial Arts Court immediately rushed in Sebastian's direction, but they were sent packing faster than they had come. One of the deacons was sent sailing through the air in Kayden's direction and landed heavily on top of him. In less than ten seconds, all five of the deacons were sprawled out on the floor, writhing. Kayden was pinned below the first deacon, unable to move at all. Sebastian stood up and walked slowly over to him.

    Kayden might seem generous, but anyone could tell that he had been targeting Sebastian since coming in."Well! After all my years in Acorn City, this is the first time someone has refused to let me pick up the tab! You're pretty bold, aren't you?"Kayden went over to Sebastian's table and pulled up a chair, staring scornfully at him."You're just as bold." Sebastian put his knife and fork down and glanced fleetingly at Kayden."Want to know something, brat? There was once a very arrogant young guy who offended me with what he said. He's currently still in the ICU!" Kayden said threateningly."Like you said, that was in the past. It's got nothing to do with the present," Sebastian replied, grinning. "I admire how calm you are, brat. You bullied my woman, and now I'm sitting right in front of you, yet you're still so calm. Impressive! Maybe you don't know who I am."There was a fierce glint in Kayden's eyes as he spoke.Sebastian scoffed. "Whoever you are, what does it have to d

    Sebastian and Nina arrived at the hotel restaurant for a meal, accompanied by Rocco."Mr. Ballard, please sit here," Rocco said, leading Sebastian to the best seat in the restaurant and shooting the waiter a look.He had instructed the chefs to prepare the food specially for Sebastian before they even arrived. Moments later, a dozen waiters served up beautifully plated dishes of food."Mr. Ballard, this was made specially for you and Ms. Nina by a top chef whom our hotel brought in from Janover. Please enjoy." Sebastian and Nina picked up their cutlery and put some food into their mouths. Nina nodded in satisfaction. "This poached fish is delicious!"Sebastian pointed to a plate of salad opposite him and said, "This salad is also very good!"At that moment, the restaurant doors opened and a large group of people streamed in.Kayden was at the head of the group, with Candy following closely behind him as they entered. The moment Sebastian had returned to Acorn City, someone

    Back in Klane City, Javier had already heard one of Joaquin's attendants mention Sebastian, so he knew that Sebastian was someone even Joaquin had to show respect to. That person was now in Acorn City.It wouldn't be very suitable for someone of Javier's age to try and approach Sebastian, and they wouldn't have many common topics either. It was different for Kayden. They were both young men, and Kayden had a wide variety of interests. He knew what young people were interested in, which would make it easier for him to strike up a friendship. If they could get into the good books of someone as influential as Sebastian, they would gain an advantage over Joaquin. In the future, the Berkeleys could even have the ultimate authority in the whole of Boren. "Acorn City is in such a remote area. What kind of important figure would come here?" Kayden asked dismissively. Javier thought for a moment before asking, "Don't you think that someone who can make Joaquin humble himself is an im

    Cohen bowed deeply to Sebastian as he spoke.Sebastian waved a hand dismissively and said, "It's alright, Mr. Gabbard. Mount Quiln is very dangerous, and that expert from a mystic sect has disappeared without a trace. "If you don't want to let more people become desiccated corpses, it'll be better to seal off the entrance to Mount Quiln and prevent anyone from entering!" Joaquin immediately said to Cohen, "Did you hear that? Starting today, Mount Acorn Martial Arts Court must send someone to seal off the entrance. No one is allowed to go in or out!""Yes, sir!" Cohen nodded vigorously.Joaquin was already being very lenient in not pursuing the matter further. The crimes that Cohen had committed were worthy of the death penalty. "Mr. Ballard, I've arranged for a hotel in Acorn City's central area. You should go and have a shower," Joaquin said ingratiatingly. He took Sebastian to the Aequor, a five-star hotel. The moment they entered, the attendants stood in two rows and bowe

    Cohen looked rather troubled as he said, "I'm not sure how to say this, Mr. Ballard. Please come to the Martial Arts Court, and you'll understand!"Sebastian nodded slightly and said to Unus, "Let's go!"As Candy watched Sebastian walk off, she felt as if her heart had been torn apart.Sebastian was so powerful! Why hadn't he said so earlier?Didn't men like showing off their strength and power in front of women? Why had he kept hiding his powers from her?If she had known earlier about how strong Sebastian was, she wouldn't have thought twice about giving herself completely to him."What should we do, Ms. Candy?" one of her bodyguards asked. They could no longer live in that villa when over 100 people had died in the yard. They had to move as soon as possible. Clearly, the villa was now a cursed place.Candy hesitated for a moment before calling one of her best friends. …When Sebastian was invited into the Martial Arts Court, he saw over a dozen corpses at the entrance an

    Unus finally stopped fighting with the Lynches and revealed his true form. A humongous snake with black scales and a dragon's head that was close to 300 feet tall reared up into the sky. His bloody maw opened gently, and a strong suction force immediately pulled everyone in the Lynch family."Huh? What's that?" Maclin almost wet his pants in fright. It was a dragon!However, upon closer inspection, something didn't seem right. Dragons had four talons, but Unus' true form did not have any. Its body was smooth and pitch black, but it had the head of a dragon. It looked as if a dragon had been grafted onto a snake, or the other way around.It looked very strange, and there was a cursed energy emanating from it that sent a chill down everyone's spine.Unus' slightly open mouth was like a strong vacuum. The apprentices of the Lynch family were all sucked up into mid-air before falling right into his mouth. In a moment of distraction, Bartemius was also sucked up into the air.

    Daxton collapsed and lay on the floor, convulsing violently.In the blink of an eye, over half of the Lynches' apprentices had been swallowed up by Unus.Bartemius stared at Unus in shock. He had swallowed over 50 people alive. But why hadn't his stomach expanded at all?Both Calder and Maclin felt their hairs stand on end with fear. Based on his tongue, which stretched out for several feet, they could only surmise that Unus was some kind of snake.However, they had no idea what kind of snake would be so ferocious. The truth was that they were laughably wrong. Unus wasn't a snake at all. He was a Devora!Even if their mentor was there, he wouldn't have recognized something like that. After all, Devoras had only appeared three times in tens of thousands of years of history. The first time they appeared was when the six kingdoms had been united into one by the First Emperor.The second was during the time of the Nomad King, although it had been wrongly named as another kind of
