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
Chapter 1822At the scene of the Gray family's family meeting.Elton looked around at all the guests present. He cocked his brows and asked, "Has any of you made up your mind? As long as you cooperate with the Gray family, it will bring you a lot of benefits."Elton gave everyone present the carrot once again.This time, the guests present didn't choose to stay quiet."Thank you, Elton, for holding this family meeting. However, my family probably isn't worthy of working with the Gray family."One of the guests rejected Elton's proposal subtly.After that, other representatives of other families began expressing their thoughts as well."Thank you for the invite, Elton, but I don't think the cooperation is possible.""If it was Mike standing there, then cooperation would for definite, but it isn't.""It's not that we don't believe in your abilities, but we only believe in Mike."Candice listened to all the opinions quietly. She could feel the respect that everyone was showing
Chapter 1823In order to survive, some of the families had no choice but to give in.Their choice obviously made Elton feel very proud.He stood on the stage with a walking stick in his hands with his chin up high. He looked as if he was a king looking down on his servants and the servants were powerless against him, so they had to do as he said.With the thought of the Gray family being under his control, and a lot of families also under his command, Elton became more and more proud of himself.For a moment there, Elton felt that he was already the leader of the Gray family.At that moment, a voice sounded in the room. "Grandpa Elton, don't you think your actions are a little shameless?"After hearing those words, Elton turned around.Candice was staring at him with cold eyes and the sarcasm was evident on her face.She deliberately raised her voice. The room was quite noisy, but most of the guests still heard it.The room became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.Eve
Chapter 1824'Medicine that kills off Venomous Insects?' Elton raised his head and looked at Candice. He saw how calm Candice was. 'Is she bluffing?'He had never heard of any medicine that could kill off Venomous Insects.With that thought in mind, Elton smiled and pointed at Candice. "I nearly believe this little lie of yours, Candice. I know your grandfather being in a coma has been hard on you. But the Gray family needs a leader and aren't I the best option?""You're the best option?" Candice snorted. "You're someone who's willing to poison your brother! What right do you have to be the leader of the Gray family?""The Gray family will be finished sooner or later if it lands in the hands of people like you!" shouted Tristan.'This guy just doesn't know when to give up!'The smile disappeared from Elton's face and his face darkened. "Candice, as long as you admit that what you said was a lie, then, as your elder, I will not hold you responsible for what you just did.""In yo
Chapter 1882Chester thought this was a good idea. After deliberation, he said, "Then, let's send some people over from the Dark Group."The Grandset had eight groups on the surface, but in reality, there was a secret Dark Group.The Dark Group's members were trained by Chester. Almost all of them were experts in ancient martial arts.Moreover, they were good at scouting, tracking, and counter-tracking, far more capable than the five Asura Kings.Sean looked at him and said, "That's exactly what I want to do. They're the only ones capable of this mission. Ordinary people can't accomplish it."Chester nodded. "Got it. I'll arrange it as soon as possible. I hope things will turn out well. "Sean nodded. They chatted for a while longer before Chester left.In the evening, Sean returned to his place, and Molly was still awake.She had already taken a shower and was leaning against the bedhead, reading a book about ancient medical techniques.Sean casually put his jacket aside, wa
Chapter 1881Chester left with Sean's orders and quickly told everyone.However, despite the advance notice, some of the family heads in several unmanaged districts were still missing for the next two days.The forces under the Martial Art Union also suffered from the impact.Sean sensed that something was wrong.People were missing in the Martial Art Union and the unmanaged areas, but the Grandset was fine.It was definitely not a good sign.Sean quickly called an emergency meeting.The next morning, all the hall masters gathered in the conference room of the temporary base.Everyone was seated at the large round table.Sean was the last to come in. Everyone stood up and respectfully greeted him. "Master."Sean nodded lightly in response.After taking the seat of honor, he got straight to the point and said, "I presume you know why you are summoned here. Many family heads have disappeared recently, which has caused panic among the people."Only we are left unharmed."S
Chapter 1880Mr. Ballard sighed resignedly, “We have no other choices now. The Martial Art competition will be held in two days. Hope nothing else will happen.”“Although we haven’t gotten any news from the Martial Art Union, we should be prepared for attacks and continue to prepare the medicine.”Molly also felt disturbed. The situation was still uncertain, and they couldn’t slack off.If the Martial Art Union attacked them in advance and they hadn’t been prepared, they would be in danger.“I think so. Now that it’s true, we’d better return to the hospital. The hospital must be in chaos. Molly...”Mr. Ballard looked at Sean and Molly worriedly.Molly was afraid that Sean would disagree and said immediately, “I would like to return to the hospital with you.”Sean nodded, “Remember to take a rest when you’re tired. I will ask the driver to drive you to the hospital.”The next day, the Martial Art Union made an announcement as expected.The Martial Art Union: [Recently, many he
Chapter 1879Sean ordered immediately, "Arrange more people to look for them, while secretly protecting the remaining clan leaders. Don't act rashly and alarm the enemy, so as not to raise new issues.""Moreover, send some people to look into the matter secretly, and keep a close watch on the Martial Art Union."Tony nodded, "Okay, Mr. Anderson. I'll do it right away."After finishing his words, he left hurriedly.Looking at the partial information Tony had previously compiled about clan leaders' disappearance, Sean pinched his brow. Sean mused, feeling that this matter wasn't simple.A few moments later, the office door was knocked again, "Sean, may I come in?"Molly's voice came outside the door.Hearing this, Sean adjusted his expression and got up to open the door.He gently took Molly's hand and led her into his office to sit down, "Why are you guys here at this hour? Are you not feeling well?"He asked Molly softly, smoothing her hair."No, I'm fine. It's just that Mr.
Chapter 1878Sean looked at the woman in his arms with tender eyes.He wiped the water droplets off the corners of Molly's mouth and asked, "Do you want to sleep for a while? I'll wake you up when the meal is ready."Molly didn't refuse.Unwilling to part with her, the three kids had talked to her till late hours last night.And she had to get up early this morning to catch the plane. She was indeed a little tired.Now that she had nothing to do, she could take a rest and refresh herself.Soon, Molly went to bed and slept.Sean watched over her.Later, the maid got the meal ready, and he woke up Molly.The next morning, Molly woke up to find the man beside her was gone.A note was left on the bedside table. "Don't forget to have breakfast. I have something to do and will come back tonight."She looked at the note and felt anxious.It seemed that she too had to quickly enter working mode. After breakfast, Molly quickly tidied up and went straight to the hospital.What ha
Chapter 1877Mr. Ballard smiled happily, “OK. I will take you there personally!”After they chatted for a while, Molly went to visit the hospital. Then she went to the villa to take a rest with Sean.The villa was close to the hospital. Before they went there, Sean arranged for someone to buy it.Sean’s purpose was to let Molly go to the hospital and back conveniently.After Sean carried the luggage into the villa, he said to Molly who sat on the couch, “Have a look at the villa. Tell me if you lack anything. I will buy them for you.”Molly looked around and shook her head, “Everything is available here. If I need anything else, I will tell you.”Sean smiled, put down the luggage, poured a cup of water for her, and asked with concern, “Are you tired?”Molly replied honestly, “Only my legs ache.”Hearing that, he sat beside her immediately and massaged her legs gently.Seeing that he was so considerate, she smiled and felt happy.A few minutes later, Molly felt much better an
Chapter 1876Mr. Ballard felt proud of himself, seeing the surprised expressions on Molly's and Sean's faces."What do you think of the temporary medical base we set up?" he asked, fixing his eyes on Sean.Sean, who understood what the old man meant, smiled in response. "Very good. Even better than I expected."As they chatted, they walked into the base."Mr. Ballard."Every person in a white coat greeted Mr. Ballard with respect.And they were amazed by the presence of Molly and Sean.The two were outstanding in appearance and temperament.Mr. Ballard nodded in response to the greetings while introducing the layout of the base to Molly and Sean.Molly looked around and asked curiously, "Are these people all doctors?"Given Mr. Ballard and Logan's strength, she thought that they could gather dozens of people at most.After all, this matter was full of danger.But those in front of her probably numbered in the hundreds, even thousands.Seeing an impressed Molly, Mr. Ballar
Chapter 1875The next day, Molly recuperated in the bedroom.Sean was worried about her and specially worked in the bedroom.The three kids were also there.They joked or told interesting things from time to time. Molly was amused by them and wore a smile on her face all the time.Molly had persuaded Sean and thus was in a good mood.Within two days, she looked much better.Mr. Ballard, Logan, and the others were relieved and could go to do logistic work at ease.On the day when they set off, Molly saw them off at the door.She looked at them and reminded them carefully, “Please pay attention to your safety. If anything happens, contact us immediately.”Mr. Ballard urged Molly to return to the room, “I see. Don’t worry. You can return to your room and take a rest now. You haven’t totally recovered yet.”Logan and Lesley nodded and echoed, “Uncle Jordan is right. We will take care of Uncle Jordan.”Yolanda said, “Don’t worry. You will go to find us with Mr. Atherton soon.”
Chapter 1874The next morning, bright sunlight streamed in through the window and woke Molly up. She saw three little ones guarding her, staring at her with an intense gaze."Mommy, you're awake," they exclaimed happily."How do you feel, Mommy? Is there anywhere uncomfortable?"Molly's heart warmed at their care and she smiled gently. She raised her hand and rubbed their heads lightly, saying softly, "I'm fine. You don't need to worry."Sitting beside her, Sean watched the interaction between Molly and the children with tender eyes. He instructed the little ones, "You stay here with Mommy. I'll go get Jordan to check on her and have breakfast delivered.""Daddy, go ahead," the little ones replied, waving their hands without looking back.Sean left with a smile, and he soon returned with Jordan and Logan. Upon seeing Molly leaning against the bed, Brycen squeezed through the crowd to come to her side."Molly, it seems you are fine now!" he exclaimed with concern, his dark
