"Why you!" Cecilia looked coldly at Janet. If it weren't for the fact that she needed Sebastian's help, she would have slapped her.She was known in Janover for her fiery personality. Even the wealthy heirs in Janover had to be respectful to her, let alone a maid in Sebastian's shop!"Am I wrong? Ms. Griffin is free to date whoever she wants to. Does it have anything to do with you?" Janet asked. She turned and walked inside, leaving Cecilia standing there alone."Hmph!" Cecilia stomped her foot and glared angrily at Janet's retreating figure. She gritted her teeth and said, "Sebastian, wait and see!"With that, she stormed out of the shop. …Half an hour later, Whitney finally woke up after Sebastian had put in a huge amount of effort. When she opened her eyes and saw Sebastian gazing concernedly at her, tears spilled out of her eyes."Sebastian… I…"Before Whitney could speak, Sebastian shook his head slightly and said, "I heard about what happened with the Suttons. I'm very
The atmosphere in the hospital room became very awkward after Sebastian finished speaking.He was right. He and Whitney were no longer a legally married couple. He had no right to ask about the Sutton family affairs, and he was in no position to stand up for Whitney either.As for Frostwave Corporation, from the day Sebastian had handed it over to Whitney, it no longer had anything to do with him.As Crystal watched Sebastian walk away, her knees gave way, and she fell to the floor in a daze. Whitney lay back on the hospital bed, tears rolling silently down her cheeks. At this point, there was no way of turning back. "Don't worry, Mrs. Sutton. I'm sure Sebastian won't stand by and do nothing. The most important thing is to let Whit recover as soon as possible so that she can stand up to Ryder."Whitney gave Theresa a strange look. Why had Theresa said the same thing as Rosalie?Everyone apart from Whitney seemed to have a strange faith in Sebastian.…Rosalie only went for a
However, the head of the League of Sages had suddenly died 15 years ago, and the group had declined as a result. In this day and age, there were very few people who knew of the League of Sages.When Rosalie mentioned the Ten Great Experts, Sebastian's heart skipped a beat. Even the Sacred Medicine Society was wary of the Ten Great Experts!Was Derek one of the Ten Great Experts? He was the one Sebastian had met earlier. It seemed that Belinda was from a very influential background. No wonder even her maid had skills at the Grandmaster level."Is that why there are so many experts around her?" It was not a very convincing reason. No matter how skilled one was, they would never be able to defeat the country. "The League of Nations is pretty much the same as The Killers, but what they do is more above board. "Have you ever thought about the fact that even influential figures have people that they need to kill but can't deal with openly? Wouldn't the League of Sages be the best ch
"What's the matter?" Rosalie asked, frowning."Nothing. Let's get out of the car and go for a walk." Sebastian pushed the car door open gently and stepped out. However, he immediately shut the car door and said to Rosalie, who looked startled, "No matter what happens, don't get out of the car.""Why? Didn't you want to go for a walk together?" Rosalie asked, confused. Sebastian could already feel a pair of eyes staring fixedly at him. The strange, cold feeling that had risen up in his heart told him that the person watching him must be nearby.He closed the door, walked over to the edge of the woods, and stopped. "Sebastian—" Rosalie's voice came from behind him but stopped abruptly.Sebastian turned sharply, only to see that Rosalie had been knocked unconscious inside the car."Who's there?" Sebastian asked calmly.It was unusually silent. The only sound was the rustling of the wind as it swept over the leaves on the trees.Danger!Sebastian's instincts told him that dan
Sebastian teased her back."You little—" the young woman was so angry that she pulled out a dagger and thrust it at Sebastian several times."A fierce woman like you will find it hard to get married." Sebastian dodged slightly and avoided the dagger she was holding."Forget it! I'm not going to fight anymore!" The woman suddenly stopped attacking and put her dagger back in its sheath."Well, we wouldn't have met if it weren't for this battle, don't you think?" Sebastian said lightly, trying his best to seem relaxed.If they had kept fighting, Sebastian didn't know how long he could last. It wasn't that the woman's moves were particularly aggressive. It was because she moved too quickly.If Sebastian hadn't had the legacy of the Sacred Medicine Society, he would have been defeated long ago.The woman smiled sweetly as she looked at Sebastian and said, "Am I right to say that you're flirting with me?"Her smile made Sebastian's heart flutter. The woman wasn't just beautiful. She
Early the next morning, Sebastian received a call from Eugene."Mr. Ballard, I've got news. Ryder returned to Dramon from Yarroland three days ago. The moment he got back, the first person he went to see was Jace."However, what I don't understand is that Jace only met him once before leaving Steinberg and going back to Sunway. "Jayden, the heir of the Stallones, went to Steinberg on the same day. There's also a mysterious person who went with Jayden, and the three of them met up with Ryder at Steinberg. However, I couldn't find any information about the third person."Sebastian nodded and said, "Does that mean that Ryder is the Beckards' pawn that they've stationed in Steinberg?""As expected, nothing can be hidden from you, Mr. Ballard. The Beckards have given the Suttons an order worth 500 million. However, that's just for show. It's only to up the stakes for Ryder."He added, "Besides, the Stallones' involvement makes it feel as if they're just waiting to devour Frostwave Co
Therefore, getting treatment for Dexter was a good chance for Eugene to shoot to prosperity with just one step.Even Harold's position as Sunway's mayor was connected to Dexter, his father-in-law.Sebastian nodded as he listened. He wasn't interested in the Coltranes. In his heart, he was thinking back on what Rose had said. A woman wanted him to die, but who was she?Eugene's car drove slowly into a neighborhood of villas in Sunway. The side of the roads in the area were lush with greenery, and there were all kinds of plants and flowers.Every few feet, tall and upright landscape trees had been planted. The scenery in the area was very pleasant. It felt like an oasis in the middle of the city.Harold lived in a detached villa, and two potted plants were placed at the entrance.In the courtyard, there was a lawn over 1000 square feet in size and a winding path paved with cloister stones. Even the foyer was about half as big as an average person's home.Sebastian couldn't help bu
"Mr. Tennyson, you've misunderstood. Mr. Targery Senior didn't say anything on the way here. Your current situation is already written on your face," Sebastian said, smiling. "Oh?" Harold's attitude softened slightly, and he said, "Well, tell me how you could see that.""It's very simple. Your face is gleaming slightly, which is a sign of something wrong with the spleen. Your complexion is dark, which indicates weak kidneys. The spleen issues are causing you to feel a lack of energy, and your kidneys are causing you to feel weakness in your lower body."As he listened to Sebastian explain simply and clearly, Harold lost the disdain he had had at first. He immediately told his maids to serve tea."Young man, why don't you tell me how I got this condition?" Harold said. He took out a cigar and handed it to Sebastian while he lit one himself.Sebastian blew out a smoke ring and said, smiling, "Mr. Tennyson, don't you have a habit of showering after dinner?"Harold was startled, but
