Royce, who was in high spirits a few days ago, looked haggard. His appearance seemed to have aged ten years."What's the point talking about all these now? We'll figure it out somehow."Sharon could not help but feel irritated.It was the first time Sharon had seen such a big crisis in her family's company since she grew up.In Sharon's eyes, the once omnipotent Royce was helpless at this very moment.Recently, Sharon cut off her expenditure and did not spend recklessly like before."You only know what to say, then why don't you think of something? It's not like you haven't seen how I've been running around for our company lately."Royce said impatiently.Suddenly, Royce paused and asked Sharon, "Didn't Mrs. Anderson often look for you before? Do you think you could ask for her help? She is Sean's mother, and Sean would listen to her, right?"Royce was in a panic and asked desperately. Sharon could not stand him anymore."You overthinking things. Alice did have a good impress
Sharon looked at Sean as she smiled and said, "The Newman Group has agreed to your offer, but we hope you could increase the offer by another 5 billion dollars. For the sake of the potential in this project.""I won't agree to that." Sean coldly refused."2 billion dollars was already higher than the best assessment in the market. The Anderson Corporation will not increase the offer any further. Even if your project can continue to increase in value in the future, it was all because of the Anderson Corporation's development team. The resulting value will also be the Anderson Corporation's credit."It was as though the Newman Group was trying to sell an egg to the Anderson Corporation. Before the egg was sold, they negotiated with Sean that the egg would hatch into a chick, and later it would be able to lay another egg and then hatch again...The overall process would be contributed by the Anderson Corporation.'Is Sharon stupid, or did she think that I'm dumb?' Sean thought.Shar
Sean handed over the project to the Anderson Corporation's team for improvement after he finalized the contract. He even personally instructed Tony to arrange it. The whole process must be recorded and reported daily.It was clear that Sean attached great importance to this project when it was supervised by the CEO's personal assistant.The team assigned did not dare to be negligent, and everyone focused on the discussion.However, this project was not a small one, and there were still many areas that needed to be improved. The team had drawn up several plans but dared not make their own decisions. They plan to discuss this with Sean before deciding on the rectification.So, the team reported their findings on the project to Tony.After Sean had heard the report from Tony, he decided to discuss the project planning with the team while he was busy handling other official matters. He was finally free after two consecutive days of working.Tony had also been running around for the p
Half an hour later, they sat in the ward after they had finished their medical checkup. Caitlyn came over with the report that had just come out."Oh, I didn't know you were here, Brycen." Caitlyn could not help but tease when she saw Brycen as soon as she entered the ward.Brycen was friendly, and he had become even more familiar with Caitlyn after being treated by her several times."Yeah, my sister brought me out!" Brycen said proudly with his chin up."Well, I guess the treatment wasn't painful enough." Caitlyn pretended to be thoughtful for Brycen.During those treatment sessions, Caitlyn felt amused and speechless when she thought of Brycen's deafening cry.Brycen seemed to recall some painful memories, and his face changed slightly. Even though he did not say a word, his face was full of unwillingness.Caitlyn stopped teasing Brycen and handed the report to Molly. She said, "I just took it and brought it over. I haven't read it yet.""Thanks." Molly took it, started read
"Are you crazy!" Brycen yelled worriedly."How are you going to get better if you keep doing this? You can't fake it till you make it. You're the one who's suffering when you hide your pain from everyone."Brycen's chest heaved in anger.To Brycen, Sawyer currently looked like an out-of-control child. He was angry with Sawyer, yet he did not have the heart to be harsh toward him.Hearing what Brycen said made Sawyer realize that he was in the wrong.He simply did not want to become a burden. He never intended to refuse medical treatment.Sawyer quickly said earnestly, "Alright, I won't do it again."He was touched by their words.After watching him apologize, Molly took a deep breath and recomposed herself."There won't be a next time," she said.Only then did the matter come to an end.Since they were at the hospital, both Sawyer and Brycen unanimously had the same thought.The two had been busy, so they had not visited Lara since she had gotten surgery. However, now that
Molly glanced at Sean briefly before looking back at the herbs she had pounded.Then, she eyeballed the dosage, "This is a relaxing incense. I added herbs to it.Molly quickly explained Sawyer's medical condition before speaking again."Burning this before his sleep can relieve the nerve pain that he's been experiencing. It'll also improve his sleep quality," she said as she poured the powder onto a special type of paper.Then, she rolled up the paper and sealed it. That way, burning the incense would not affect the herbs within.Even though Molly never took the initiative to get close to her two brothers, Sean could see that she had always been helping them silently.Suddenly, Sean patted her."There's powder on your nose."Molly could not help but blush. Then, she continued rolling the incense quietly.However, they did not notice Sawyer coming downstairs.He had heard their conversation.He stared at Molly momentarily before quietly returning upstairs.The moment Sawyer
The children breathed a sigh of relief after hearing him accept their invitation.'Dad's a tough cookie!' they thought."Don't forget, Mr. Anderson. The art exhibition is this weekend," the children reminded him and handed him a ticket."I won't," Sean said with a smile while accepting the ticket....After Molly had given Sean his medical treatment, she took out a small paper packet and handed it to him."Here. This is for you."Sean opened the packet out of curiosity. It was the relaxing incense that Molly had given Sawyer today.He then heard Molly say, "You're always busy with work and staying up late. Burning a stick of this incense before you sleep can improve your sleep quality. Regardless, you shouldn't overexert yourself, and you should get enough rest."She sounded concerned for Sean.Suddenly, Sean was no longer depressed about her going out with someone else."Alright," Sean pursed his lips and accepted her gift.When the weekend came, Molly, the children, and B
Since Tony was already outside waiting for them, Molly got into the car and told him the location of the art exhibition.'But Benjamin invited me...' she thought."I didn't expect you to like art exhibitions. I'll have someone send you some tickets the next time if I get any," Sean spoke and interrupted Molly's train of thought."Uh... Sure, thank you," Molly said awkwardly.She did not know how to explain the situation to him.'I was supposed to bring the children to the exhibition. Alright, now I need to figure out what to say to Benjamin later,' she thought.When they arrived at the art exhibition venue, Molly got out of the car. Benjamin was outside of the venue waiting for her.When Benjamin saw Molly, he waved at her excitedly. However, the smile on his face dropped the moment he saw the person beside her.Benjamin waited for the two to approach him before turning to Sean, "Mr. Anderson, what are you doing here?"'Why is he always around whenever I try to do something wi
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
