Author: Wendell Mayhew
"Thank you, thank you." Cormac got up and ran out of the room.

Andon immediately got up to escape with him.

"Hold it!" Sebastian said sharply.

Andon froze in the doorway. He stood stiffly, not daring to move a muscle.

"Let me ask you a question. I hope that you can answer honestly. Otherwise, you'll become the fourth corpse in this room." Sebastian asked icily, "Where on earth is Jace?"

"I… I don't know either, Mr. Ballard! I haven't seen him for a long time. This time, I know that I've made a mistake!

"If you forgive me this time, I'll retire at once and never return to Steinberg." Cold sweat was pouring off Andon's brow, and he was trembling violently.

"Get lost!" Sebastian waved a hand at him.

Andon took a step forward, and behind him, Rose said softly, "It would be better if you acted as if nothing happened here. If a word of what took place here gets out, your entire family will die."

Andon jolted slightly, then ran downstairs as fast as his legs could carry him.

    When the guards had left, Braxton finally shuffled over to Roland on his knees, tears streaming down his cheeks. He reached out to tear his clothes so that he could bandage Roland's wounds for him.It was only then that they realized that they had just been Preston's pawns. Everything had just been an illusion."Dad, is this the end of our family?" Roland's face was streaked with tears as he looked up at Braxton.Braxton seemed to have aged over a decade in just an instant. He had completely lost all of his energy.He fell back onto the floor in a daze and laughed bitterly as he shook his head. He said, "It appears that we were wrong. However, perhaps this is just what we deserve. I shouldn't have listened to Preston back then. Not only did I end up harming Samson, but I also hurt the Ballards and the Thornes!"Hundreds of lives were involved! I made a grave mistake because of a moment's greed, and that's why I ended up in this state. I have reaped what I sowed."Tears streamed d

    Upon seeing Braxton vomiting up blood, Preston threw his head back and laughed.He looked down at Braxton and said, "It's always the survival of the fittest in this world. The fact that you've reached this point is really just your destiny. Since it's your destiny, you have to learn to accept it!"Beside them, Roland was getting more and more confused. He gave Braxton a puzzled look and asked, "What's happening, Dad? What are you and Uncle Preston talking about?"Braxton turned and gave Roland a resigned look. His eyes were full of regret, hatred, and guilt. He took a deep breath and told him honestly about everything that had happened in the past. It turned out that over ten years ago, it was Preston who had gone to see Braxton. At the time, Braxton hadn't become the head of the Ballard family of his branch yet. When Braxton heard that Preston was from the Ballard Estate, he had immediately hatched a plan. The Ballards had only been a third-rate prestigious family in Draepolis

    "Forget about that for now. Hurry up and—"Before Braxton could finish, there was the sound of footsteps outside the door.Before long, Preston opened the door and entered. He looked coldly at Braxton and Roland before he held out his hand and said, "Hand it over."Roland's expression changed slightly. He hastily hid the phone inside his pants and grinned as he said, "Uncle Preston, wh-what are you talking about? I don't understand."Roland began moving toward the wall as he spoke.Preston laughed coldly and said, "You've already called the Yeomans. What do you think I'm asking you to hand over? Will you hand it to me or to the Ballard Enforcement Court? You can decide!"Roland broke out into a cold sweat at once. He fell to his knees quickly and said, "Uncle Preston, I made a mistake. Please give me a chance to turn over a new leaf! You know that our wealth was accumulated over several generations of the family. After just giving it to Sebastian like that, I really feel—"Prest

    It was so silent that one could hear a pin drop.Braxton closed his eyes tightly and thought for a long time before he slowly opened them again and said, "Alright. Since Sebastian has pushed us to this extent, he shouldn't blame us for what we're about to do! An eye for an eye."Braxton got up quickly and began rummaging around. After a long time, he finally sighed and said, "The people at the door have searched the place and taken my phone. We can't leave this courtyard, and even if we want to contact the Yeomans, we—"Before they had been escorted to the courtyard, the guards had confiscated their phones. Apart from the clothes they were wearing, they hadn't been allowed to keep so much as a piece of paper. After all, Arnaud wasn't the kind of person who would leave Braxton and Roland any chance of interfering. That was why he had completely cut off their contact with the outside world. Roland chuckled and bent down. He took out a basic phone from one of his pant legs. He hand

    Belinda sighed softly and said, "Forget it. Mr. Ballard will investigate this incident himself. Give the order for our subordinates to keep an eye out. If there's any news, just let him know."She waved a hand to dismiss Blake and walked in the direction of her bedroom.Blake sighed, and when Belinda had walked off, he turned and rushed in the direction of the Martial Arts Association's headquarters.…On the way back. Rosalie said thoughtfully while she drove, "Sebastian, do you remember Madam Dragon asking you about the emerald token just now?"Sebastian nodded. Rosalie wasn't the only one who had noticed something strange. Even he had felt that there had been something odd about Belinda's expression.However, since Cillian and the others had been present, he hadn't been able to ask directly."I feel that she knows something," Rosalie said as she thought back on Belinda's expression at the time.She clearly remembered the look of shock on Cillian and Wyatt's faces when they h

    Sebastian had no choice but to nod in agreement, and Rosalie finally smiled.Belinda frowned slightly and asked, "Mr. Sebastian, do you mean to say that you're looking for the emerald token left behind by the ancestral dragon? It's not some kind of Reincarnation Pill?"Sebastian nodded heavily. "That's right. It would be more accurate to say that this emerald token is a magical device. However, there are very few people who know how to use it."Even Sebastian and Andreas weren't sure about how to use the emerald token. There were no records about it in the Sacred Medicine Secret Annals, either.Belinda nodded in understanding.Beside them, Cillian put down his wine glass and looked at Sebastian as he asked, "Sebastian, what plans do you have for after you reach Draepolis?"It was clear that the convenience store wouldn't continue operating. Arctic Snow Group and Frostwave Corporation would probably establish a branch in Draepolis, but that wasn't something that could be done with

    Rosalie was familiar with the woman that Sebastian was referring to. Alyssa was a renowned socialite among the elites of Draepolis. Most of the young heirs of Draepolis hovered around her all the time. She was one of the core members of that inner circle.However, Rosalie and Alyssa had never gotten along. Upon hearing that Sebastian was going to visit the Yeomans, Rosalie was immediately furious. "Hmph! If you're going to enter into a marriage alliance with her, why bother with me?" Rosalie turned her head away, her eyes reddening. Tears began trickling uncontrollably down her cheeks."Rosalie, that's not what I meant…""What did you mean then? If you go and visit them, then isn't that a blind date? Is there any other explanation?" Rosalie retorted angrily as she wiped her tears away.It was the first time she had spoken to Sebastian in that tone. But who could blame her? The person she had feelings for would be going on a blind date. Who could stand the thought of that?In p

    "I see that you've brought an esteemed guest, Mr. Ballard!"Belinda shook hands with Andreas once more. She arranged for Andreas to be seated as well and treated him with the utmost respect. Finally, the banquet officially began. As they ate, Cillian gave a toast to Sebastian and Andreas before he put his glass down and said, "Since a representative of the Ballard Estate is also present, there's something I would like to ask you!"Sebastian smiled at him and said, "It's alright, Mr. Shields Senior. You can ask whatever you want."Cillian put down his knife and fork and said with his brow furrowed, "I've heard that the Reincarnation Pill came into the secular world from the Ballard Estate. Is this true?"When Cillian had finished, Wyatt and Oliver both looked seriously at Sebastian.Sebastian smacked his lips and turned to look at Andreas. After all, this involved the secrets of the Ballards. If it were revealed and the Ballards were displeased, it would be sure to trigger a viol

    "I know that you are magnanimous. Please have mercy on me, and I'll be sincerely grateful to you," Anton said. "These are a few properties under my name. Please accept them!"Sebastian raised an eyebrow and waved a hand at Anton as he said, "Get up. Let's leave the past behind. Just make sure you don't do it again. As for your properties, I'm not interested in them. You can take them all back."After all, Sebastian now owned all the properties of the Ballard family. Compared to the hundreds of billions there, the Wentworths' properties weren't even worth mentioning. Besides, he had let Anton go that day because Joaquin wasn't completely hopeless, even if he had made a few mistakes. He had no interest in either the Wentworths' properties or their influence in Boren."Mr. Ballard, if you won't accept them, I'll stay on my knees!"Anton didn't dare to get up, as Sebastian had refused to accept his allegiance.He had come specifically to give Sebastian his allegiance, not to get his
