Chapter 1814With the backing of the Martial Art Union, Elton didn't fear Candice and her family. He simply swaggered into Mike's room with the doctor.The room was so quiet that only the sound of the operating instruments could be heard. Mike lay motionless on the bed.Elton went forward, and when he saw his brother's pale face, he sneered and looked away.Deep down, he felt uneasy."Come over and check on him," he instructed the doctor.The doctor complied, examining Mike's body.Elton quietly waited for the results.After a while, the doctor turned around and reported truthfully, "Sir, I'm afraid Mr. Gray won't last for long. He's barely alive thanks to the equipment."Elton was overjoyed. "Really?""Yes."Getting the affirmative answer, Elton almost shouted for joy. He looked at the man on the bed, unable to refrain from smiling."Mike, don't blame me. I just want the Gray family to be stronger."With that, he turned to leave.The room fell quiet once again.Downstai
Chapter 1815Lesley and Yolanda came over to deliver food and happened to overhear their conversation. They exchanged glances and quickly walked in."Uncle Jordan, Molly, I can help," Lesley quickly offered after putting down the food.Yolanda followed closely behind. "I can help too."Molly raised her eyebrows, glanced at Mr. Ballard, and a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes. "Alright, with your help, it will definitely be smoother."As expected, with the prescription and so many people working together, the entire pharmaceutical process progressed quite smoothly.After several days of hard work, the medicine for preventing the Venomous Insect was successfully developed."So fast?" Sean was somewhat taken aback when he laid eyes on the finished product. He had anticipated that it would take at least a week to develop the medicine.Who would have imagined that it would only take a few days?Molly smiled and replied, "Teamwork makes the dream work."Sean cast a glance at the
Chapter 1816"Mr. Ballard, don't you think about it?"Meeting Molly's meaningful gaze, Mr. Ballard felt helpless and amused."What are you talking about?"He raised his hand and was about to teach Molly a lesson.She smiled and avoided him, "Mr. Ballard, it's a rare chance. You should think about it." Logan and Lesley covered their mouths and sniggered nearby.Although they hadn't spent much time with Yolanda, they could both see her affection for Mr. Ballard.But Mr. Ballard deliberately kept his distance from Yolanda, and they didn't know what he was thinking.However, as the younger generation, they couldn't say anything about the things of the elders.Molly's joke made Yolanda a little embarrassed, but when she saw Mr. Ballard not answer the question directly, a sense of frustration flashed across her eyes.She watched Mr. Ballard quietly and sighed in her heart.She thought, 'It is all right. It is enough that I can stay by his side.'During the few days that Elton s
Chapter 1817Sean nodded, held Molly's hand, and asked softly, "Why didn't you sleep a little longer?"Molly had been busy developing the medicine for several days. Although she didn't stay up too late, she was pregnant, so she was more or less tired.So she purposely stopped her work for a rest."I woke up without seeing you, so I got up." Molly's voice was gentle and sweet.Sean's heart instantly melted."I'll accompany you back to the room to rest."After saying that, Sean took Molly to the bedroom.Tony, who stayed behind, thought of how the couple had displayed affection like there was no one else. His mouth twitched. He felt that his boss really didn't treat him as an outsider anymore.'This should be something to be happy about.'Why am I a bit sad?'Could it be because I am single?'Later, Dubhe returned."Master, I've found out that the Martial Art Union secretly sent quite a few people to the Gray family's place, but their purpose is unclear."Sean and Molly wer
Chapter 1818Being reminded by Sean, Molly had a moment of enlightenment.In the next second, Molly held Sean’s hand and rushed out.“Let’s go to see Mr. Ballard.”As soon as Molly saw Mr. Ballard, she told him the whole story.Molly looked at Mr. Ballard and begged, “Mr. Ballard, please help us.”Mr. Ballard burst into laughter, “OK. I will contact the medical team and ask them to come here to develop the repellent.”Hearing that, Molly cheered up. “Thank you.”“You’re welcome.”Mr. Ballard glanced at her and called the nearest medical team.Sean glanced at Mr. Ballard who was talking on the phone. Then Sean put his arm around Molly’s shoulder, smiled, and asked slightly, “You can feel at ease finally, right?”Molly glanced at Sean. “You’re right, but the clock is ticking. Hope everything will go smoothly.”The development of the repellent for Venomous Insect should be completed the day before the meeting of the Gray family. If it was delayed, the consequences would be too
Chapter 1819Back at their residence, Molly expressed her concerns to Sean."If Mike can't attend the clan meeting, doesn't that mean the Martial Art Union will have their way?"The people of the Martial Art Union had gone to great lengths to win over Elton, all with the ultimate goal of dealing with The Grandset."Don't worry." Sean smiled, saying, "We'll let Candice and others go and testify."He appeared calm, as if everything was under control.Molly couldn't help but laugh. "I almost forgot that you had arranged everything."Although the Venomous Insect had been removed from Mike's head, even she, as a doctor, couldn't tell when he would wake up, not to mention Sean.So, with his cautious personality, he must have been prepared in advance."Yes." Sean raised an eyebrow. "I never engage in unprepared battles.""I know." Molly glanced at him. "With you around, I feel at ease."Sean smiled and embraced her, asking softly, "Are you still worried now?""No." Molly shook her
Chapter 1820Despite Roland and Elton having suspicion in their minds, the Gray family gathering was held as scheduled.The banquet was held at a local hotel. Elton had the place decorated with all the splendor that showed the Gray family’s power.Many guests were invited to the banquet. Elton's son and daughter-in-law stood at the entrance to receive the guests. Though they had serious faces, their curled mouths showed how pleased they were.Candice and her family were also invited. Seeing the lavish banquet, Candice showed a sullen face.Her grandfather was still lying in the hospital, but Elton was having such a lavish banquet, which showed that he didn't care about his brother at all."Ashton, Clarissa, Candice, Tristan, go inside and take your seats!" Elton's son and daughter-in-law greeted Candice and her family with smiles. They ignored the latter's sullen expression on their faces.Candice and her family walked straight past without looking at Elton's son and his wife.
Chapter 1821"Mike had always been in good shape. How come he's now suddenly sick?""It's a surprise to everyone. Now that Mike has fallen ill, the Gray family would have no one to be in charge.""No wonder Elton is holding this family meeting so desperately. So that's what happened.""But there's no way that Elton would be chosen to be in charge, right?""That's what I was thinking as well. Elton has no right to be in charge of the Gray family."All the discussion had fallen into Elton's ears. Deep down, he was dissatisfied with what they were saying, but it wasn't the right time to lose his temper.All he could do was to keep the serious look on his face. "The reason that I've invited you all here is that I hope you can cooperate with the Gray family so that we can all be a winner."As soon as he said those words, an uproar was sent through the crowd.What Elton said sounded nice, but in fact, he just wanted the people present to be under the Gray family's command and to be
