"Ms. Griffin already has someone on her mind. I'm afraid that she's way out of my league." Ryan was Hugh's oldest son and the second most powerful man in the state capital. However, he was self-aware and knew that if the Beckards hadn't managed to get Rosalie to marry into their family, he would have even less of a chance. He didn't want to end up like Stephen."What if I were to tell you that I could help you get rid of Ballard?" Jace asked calmly.What?A flicker of hope sparked in Ryan's eyes, which had been dull and lifeless a moment before. "Are you serious, Mr. Beckard?" Jace laughed coldly and said, "Of course. Not only that, neither of us will have to lift a finger."Jace told Ryan about Sebastian's recent acquisition of two valuable treasures. However, he omitted the fact that Belinda had personally given them to Sebastian as a gift.A sinister smile appeared on Ryan's face after he heard about what had happened. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Ballard really is rec
Rosalie watched Sebastian get taken away by Cyril and his men. She said anxiously to Janet, "Let's go to the sanatorium together! Mr. Holman Senior should be able to help.""Didn't my lord say that we shouldn't ask Mr. Holman Senior for help?" Janet asked in confusion."No! As soon as Sebastian gets captured by the Alpha Strike Force team, he'll be in great danger. They can use their connections, but so can we."Rosalie knew very well that the Alpha Strike Force team was extremely influential. Therefore, she packed quickly and pulled down the metal roll-up door of the convenience store. She took Janet with her to the sanatorium.…Meanwhile, in a villa in Sunway, a middle-aged man in a suit put his phone down gleefully.He turned and said to Ryan, "Mr. Ryan, it's done. The Alpha Strike Force team in Steinberg have already captured Sebastian. They're on their way back to the base."Ryan looked triumphant as he grinned and said, "Okay, good work! This time, we must drive Sebastian
Cyril waved the appraisal report in front of Sebastian and said gleefully, "Do you know that an ancient sword from the Tunger era would be enough to get you sentenced to death? "Both your relics are from the early Quorn era, which is even further back in history than the Tunger era! It would be enough to convict you to death many times over!" An excited light shone in Cyril's eyes as he spoke.With the appraisal report, he was pretty much guaranteed the position of commander. He had solved a case involving the illegal reselling of cultural relics from the early Quorn era. Even the Janover Alpha Strike Force team executives would be sure to call and compliment Cyril. His name would be recorded in the annals of history."We're not even sure who's about to die. Look at how happy you are! Anyone would think that there was something wrong with your brain just by looking at you," Sebastian said mockingly."Oh, Ballard, cut the crap. Tell me, how would you like to die?" Cyril put down
Cyril struggled to stand up. It was a pity he didn't have as much strength as the foot planted firmly on his back. After struggling a few times, he found himself pressed down hard against the floor once more."Don't struggle. It won't be of any use. If you don't give us a reasonable explanation for what happened today, I'll sentence you on the spot!" Wyatt spoke in an ice-cold, terrifying tone.Cyril broke out in a cold sweat with fear."This is all a misunderstanding! Please listen to me! Sebastian stole cultural relics, and this is a crime that merits death. "Besides, the cultural relics in his possession are national treasures from the early Quorn era! If you don't believe me, you can look at the report on the desk," Cyril hastily explained.Vince finally noticed that there was a photocopied piece of paper placed on the interrogation table. He picked it up and perused it thoroughly. The two colored photos on top were exactly the same as the objects lying on the interrogation t
Sebastian laughed in embarrassment."Take care!" Wyatt patted Sebastian's shoulder heavily.Then, he turned a cold gaze on Cyril as he said, "Young man, I hope you're not planning to settle personal debts here. I'm warning you, you wouldn't want me as your enemy."Cyril almost wet his pants with fear.Wyatt was old, but he had survived countless bloody storms during the war. He had fought his way to this point, and his manner was both righteous and intimidating. Just one look from him was enough to scare a creep like Cyril half to death. "Don't worry, Mr. Holman Senior. Before the higher-ups send someone here, I won't give Sebastian any trouble! I'll let him have his phone back too. "As long as he doesn't escape, I'll guarantee that he'll feel right at home here." As he spoke, Cyril felt his heart twisting painfully. It felt as if he were being stabbed with a hundred knives.Wyatt looked meaningfully at Vince and Larys, and they left the interrogation room, looking resigned.
However, Ryan only wanted the anti-cancer prescription and the shares in Arctic Snow Group. He didn't care about whether Sebastian lived or died."Mr. Jones, I didn't hear you wrongly, did I? Do you really have the power to get me released with no charges? I don't think that even your father would be able to say such a thing!" Sebastian's ruthless retort made Ryan's smile freeze. His lips twitched violently."How was it, Mr. Jones? What did he say?" Trevor looked nervously at Ryan."Ballard, don't be so cocky! If you agree to my requests now, you may still have a chance of surviving! If you won't cooperate, I'll still be able to find a way to get the prescription. You, on the other end, will find yourself in a worse situation," Ryan said through gritted teeth.Sebastian was looking down on Ryan! No one had ever gone against Ryan in his entire life! Who did Sebastian think he was?Ryan had only manipulated a few things and already had Sebastian backed into a corner.Sebastian wa
Blake rushed back to Ventus Estate. When Belinda saw that he had returned alone, she frowned and asked, "Why isn't Mr. Ballard with you?"Blake wiped away the sweat on his brow and said, "Madam Dragon, I made an appointment with Mr. Ballard yesterday and said that I would be there at 2:00 pm to pick him up. However, when I got there, Mr. Ballard's convenience store was closed down.""What?" Belinda's expression changed slightly. She was sure that she had not judged Sebastian wrongly. He wasn't the type of person who wouldn't keep his promises. Had something happened to him?"Madam Dragon, I've asked around, and I heard that Larys and Vince have been put in isolation for interrogation. We can't get to them at all right now.""Mr. Ballard has been taken away by the Steinberg Alpha Strike Force team. As for the reason, please forgive me, I couldn't find out at all. "However, I think that the detainment of Larys and Vince and the sudden interrogation of the two of them must have some
"I must see Sebastian today!" Belinda didn't want to give Clifford any room to maneuver.Clifford pondered Belinda's words and thought about it three times. Wouldn't it be a simple matter for her to see Sebastian?With her status, who would stop her? Who would have the courage to stop her?Clifford immediately understood Belinda's intentions. He said quickly, "I'll get Hugh to rush to Steinberg right now to meet you. I'll be sure to find out everything regarding the incident with Sebastian as well."Belinda hung up abruptly.Clifford put his phone down and exhaled deeply. He quickly instructed his secretary to call an emergency meeting.Hugh had just walked into the conference room when Clifford pointed at him and said, "Hugh, you don't need to attend the meeting today. Go to Steinberg at once, and take this with you. Read it carefully while you're on your way."Clifford gave Hugh an envelope. Hugh took it, turned, and left the conference room thoughtfully."What is going on wi
