Maeve was Harold's wife, and she was eight years younger than him. She had only married Harold because she had run away from her arranged marriage.Although Harold wasn't as well off as the Coltranes, he was more reliable than a wealthy heir would be, and he wasn't a playboy. Maeve was a beautiful woman, after all, and she was a wealthy heiress. She was confident of that, at least.Maeve glared at Callum and smiled as she walked down the stairs to shake Sebastian's hand.Harold had told Maeve in advance about bringing Sebastian to treat Dexter, so Maeve had come early to make sure that everything was prepared.After exchanging a few pleasantries, Maeve said to Sebastian very worriedly, "We've brought in many people over the past few years for my father's condition. We even got a doctor from Janover, but none of them could tell us what is the cause of his condition."Sebastian frowned slightly and said, "Mrs. Tennyson, could I ask what symptoms he has?""It's very straightforwar
"I think that traditional medicine doctors are all worthless. To be more accurate, traditional medicine shouldn't even be categorized as medicine. It's just superstition!" Raymond said arrogantly."The intricacies of traditional medicine are not for the likes of you to comment on. You should know that the history of traditional medicine goes back even further than that of your country!" Sebastian hadn't spoken at first, as he did not want to stoop to the level of these people. However, he couldn't stand by and let Raymond insult traditional medicine."How old are you, young man?" Shauna asked Sebastian, smiling."28," Sebastian answered honestly."This is the first time I've met a traditional medicine doctor who's 28 years old. Maeve, you and Harold have impeccable taste!" Shauna said sarcastically to Maeve and Harold."How embarrassing!" Percy glared at Sebastian, giving him the finger as well.When Raymond had made fun of Dramon's traditional medicine, Percy hadn't dared to
Even Percy didn't dare to take the bet with Raymond. Why would a young man like Sebastian, who was barely out of puberty, accept the bet?If he lost, they wouldn't be the only ones who were humiliated. They would embarrass the entire traditional medicine industry."Things seem very lively in here!" A hearty voice rang out. Everyone turned to look in the direction of the stairs.An old man in white training clothes was walking slowly down the stairs. The old man's hair was white, but he had a ruddy complexion, and his voice was firm and strong. He didn't seem like someone who was sick at all.It was Dexter, the head of the Coltrane family.Maeve, Callum, Shauna, and Harold stood up immediately when they saw him."Dad!""Uncle Dexter!"The old man nodded slightly and glanced at Sebastian and the others. He smiled and said, "This condition of mine has troubled all of you."Sebastian and the others got up quickly to greet him. "Uncle Dexter, this is Dr. Wolham. I brought him her
"Just because you can't cure it doesn't mean that others can't. You don't represent traditional medicine." Sebastian didn't even deign to look at Percy."Why you—" Percy turned red in the face with anger.He could accept being criticized by Raymond, as the latter was famous, but who did Sebastian think he was? How dare a young man speak to him that way?"I don't want to hear the two of you arguing anymore!" Raymond shook his head impatiently and grabbed Dexter's arm. He got ready to give him the injection."This injection will only make Mr. Coltrane Senior's condition worse. It could even put his life in danger," Sebastian said coldly."What? You're not joking, are you, Sebastian?" Harold looked flustered.Sebastian nodded sternly and said, "This is a matter of life and death. I wouldn't joke about that.""You're an ignorant young man. Do you even know what kind of medicine I'm injecting Mr. Coltrane Senior with? This is JW-5. It's the newest product released internationally to
Sebastian pressed the bag of ice gently on the top of Dexter's head and took out two silver needles, with which he pricked Dexter in the center of his chest and on his lower abdomen.Vital energy flowed through the silver needles and entered Dexter's body. Two clearly visible clouds of dark energy flowed from Dexter's legs up to the top of his head. When the dark energy reached the top of his head, the ice immediately turned black."W-What's… what…" Harold was staring in shock.Beside him, Percy was equally dazed. Once all the ice cubes in the bag of ice had turned black, Sebastian removed it from the top of Dexter's head and plucked out the needles. He plunged the needles into the top of Dexter's head.After more than ten minutes, Dexter's complexion turned rosy once more. As Sebastian's vital energy flowed into his body, Dexter's breathing slowly calmed down, and he finally opened his eyes slightly.Seeing that Dexter was awake, Sebastian pulled out the last silver needle.
Dexter spoke very sincerely.Sebastian tried to decline a few times, but Dexter was insistent. Therefore, he had no choice but to take the small wooden box.When Sebastian accepted the present, Dexter beamed and said, "It isn't a very expensive gift. It's just a VIP card for Coltrane Group. Anyone who has this card can go and spend as much as they like at any of our affiliated establishments. You'll receive VIP treatment, and everything will be free.""Thank you, Mr. Coltrane Senior." Sebastian put the wooden box in his pocket.Dexter had wanted to ask him to stay for a meal, but Sebastian refused firmly.Seeing that Sebastian was determined to leave, Harold and Maeve didn't force him to stay, so they walked with him out of the estate. As they were about to part ways, they exchanged contact numbers.When Sebastian got back to Steinberg, it was already 7:30 pm. He was afraid that Rosalie would be waiting for him, so he called her."Have you finished?" Rosalie's gentle voice came
Rosalie pulled out her phone and said, "I reserved this place this afternoon.""If I want you to change, then do it! Why are you talking so much? Make room!" the man in the blue suit said impatiently."What if I refuse?" Sebastian said, looking very displeased.This was his first candlelit dinner with Rosalie, but the young man had completely ruined the mood. Sebastian was annoyed."Do I look like I care?" the man in the blue suit glared at Sebastian and called to the counter. "Waiter!""How can I help you, sir?" a waiter asked politely."I booked this place. Tell them to get lost!" The man in the blue suit pointed at Sebastian and Rosalie."Can you show us your reservation?" the waiter asked, frowning."What reservation? Why do I need one to come and eat here? Call your manager over here!" the man in the blue suit yelled at the waiter."What's going on?" A potbellied, middle-aged man walked over to them. "I booked this spot this afternoon, but he's insisting that we move,"
"Let go of me right now, damn it!" Larry looked viciously at Sebastian, but the intense pain in his hand made it impossible for him to get off his knees."How dare you hit him? Damn it, don't you know where you are? This is Coltrane Group's—" Sebastian waved a hand and slapped Bruce in the face, cutting him off mid-sentence."That's it! Things are over for you!" Bruce held his face and waved at the security guards.All the security guards surged forward at the same time and raised their batons to hit Sebastian."Sebastian!" Rosalie saw that one of the security guards was about to hit Sebastian on the back of the head with his baton.She grabbed a small fork from the table and got ready to fight.However, just as the baton was about to hit Sebastian on the head, he suddenly moved aside and tripped the man up. It was as if he had eyes in the back of his head.The security guard lost his balance at once and hit Larry in the face instead. Blood immediately flowed out of his nose."
