Chapter 11

Author: Wendell Mayhew
For four consecutive years, Isabel topped the list of powerful businesswomen in Steinberg as the one with the most potential and influence.

It was not at all an exaggeration to call her the queen of Steinberg's business world.

In the last year, Isabel was all Whitney could talk about.

She was the person Whitney wanted to be and was also a role model for all the women in Steinberg's business world.

Isabel was the reason why Whitney changed.

Sebastian frowned when he heard that yet another person had come under Chester's recommendation.

"I don't need five minutes. I've gotten everything I need to know. I can treat you," Sebastian said.

Isabel was taken aback.

All of Steinberg was aware of her condition, but she had consulted with numerous renowned doctors, and no one was able to treat it.

She even offered a handsome fee. Alas, it was to no avail.

In fact, Isabel even said that as long as someone could find a cure for her strange condition, she was willing to marry that person,

    "Take everything off?" Isabel repeated. Startled, she turned bright red.She did not expect Sebastian to bluntly ask that she take off her clothes and underwear.Even though she was a career woman with a long list of accolades, she had never dated anyone before.In the last four years, she did not even hold a man's hand, let alone strip naked in front of one …After hesitating briefly, Isabel turned around. With her back toward Sebastian, she slowly took off her dress, revealing her smooth and flawless back.The gentle curves of her neck and shoulders as well as her slender waist made Sebastian gulp. He was a little dazed.Meanwhile, Isabel was so embarrassed that she was trembling.She slowly took off her black lace underwear before swiftly lying head down on the bed. Her ample bosom was squished against the mattress."I'm ready," Isabel muttered with her head turned to the side. She dared not look at Sebastian.Her cheeks were flamed.Sebastian took in the voluptuous physiq

    "Sure, if I have the time," Sebastian responded non-committedly.Isabel left.After getting into her car, she called her secretary and instructed, "Look into someone for me. I want all the information there is on him. He's the first man in four years to have touched me and seen me naked. I'll be seeing a lot of him from now on."…Meanwhile, over at the CEO's office in Frostwave Corporation, Whitney asked Mabel, "Is everything ready for the press conference?""Yes, everything's ready," Mabel replied.Whitney got up. "Come. Let's head over there now."The press conference was extremely important. She was not going to allow anything to go wrong.The lobby of Frostwave Corporation had been set up for the press conference. Several media channels were broadcasting the event in real-time.The words "Goldcrow Pill" were featured boldly on the large backdrop.As the crowd clapped, Whitney walked up to the podium with a smile and said, "Firstly, I'd like to thank all of you for taking

    At the shop, Sebastian turned off the live broadcast of the press conference and chuckled wryly.It was clear that the things Whitney said toward the end were directed at him, but he did not care.That being said, it seemed like Frostwave Corporation's strategy to promote the Goldcrow pill was going to cause trouble for them.It might even lead to a huge fiasco.But, Sebastian could not be bothered to worry about it.He had already cautioned Whitney, and he could not do anything if she refused to listen.Just then, Rosalie skipped over to him and called out, "Dr. Ballard.""Do you need something else from me, Ms. Griffin?" Sebastian asked.Rosalie pouted and asked, "What's the matter? Do you not like spending time with me?"Huh?Startled, Sebastian smiled awkwardly, "I wouldn't say that.""Really? Well, my family is organizing a dinner event in Steinberg. It's happening on the day after tomorrow. Do you want to come with me?" Rosalie asked with a hopeful smile."A dinner ev

    Rosalie's words fell like a bomb.It felt as if the temperature had dropped several degrees.Fiancée?Shocked, Whitney stared wide-eyed at Sebastian before nodding and remarking with a sneer, "My, my. Sebastian. You even have a fiancée now. That explains why you agreed to the divorce without a fight. It's because of her, huh?"Sebastian frowned and glared at Rosalie who pretended to not notice him.She rolled her eyes and stuck her tongue out before averting her gaze."Get the hell out of my way!"Whitney shoved Sebastian before marching into the estate in a huff.Mabel glowered at Sebastian and fumed, "You disgust me! You brought this vixen here to show off in front of Ms. Sutton, didn't you? What a shame. Your plan failed. Ms. Sutton doesn't care about you anymore."She ran after Whitney.Frowning hard, Sebastian let out a dry chuckle before exhaling.Rosalie came over and muttered, "Are you alright, Dr. Ballard?""I'm fine.""I'm sorry. I just wanted to piss off your ex

    When Fergus finished speaking, he finally noticed the innocent yet seductive-looking woman beside Sebastian.She was a captivating beauty and Whitney's equal in every way, including figure, appearance, and bearing.Most importantly, she gave off an entirely different aura.Fergus felt as if she had ignited a flame in his heart.Cursing to himself, he wondered how Sebastian managed to hook up with such a gorgeous woman again …"Does it have anything to do with you?" Sebastian retorted in response to Fergus' rude questioning.Fergus had graduated from medical school and was considered one of Steinberg's ten most talented young men.He ran a pharmaceutical company of his own and had a net worth of over a billion dollars.As he had published numerous academic articles related to the field of medicine, he gained a lot of recognition and became one of the most well-received young professionals in Steinberg.However, Sebastian did not like Fergus.Firstly, it was because Fergus kept

    Whitney was thunderstruck as she exclaimed, "Canceled? What happened?""I don't know. I just heard the news. They claimed that our application was not in compliance with the proper procedures," Mabel reported."Try to find out what's going on."Whitney was panicking.The sudden loss of the guaranteed spot was a great blow to Frostwave Corporation!Whitney went to great lengths to get it. She had to rely on a lot of her connections and resources, as well as spend a ton of money.They had even prepared all the promotional activities related to their participation in the competition.Even if they were kicked out now, it would be a loss of over ten million dollars!Plus, without the guaranteed spot in the city-level competition, their promotions for the Goldcrow pill would not be as effective!Mabel made calls to everyone she could think of, but no one knew what had happened."What should we do now, Ms. Sutton? It looks like it was the Griffin family's doing."Whitney was frowni

    "Really?" Whitney exclaimed. She was already beside herself with worry.Fergus nodded and said confidently, "My dad has some connections with the Griffin family. As long as he puts in a word for you, I'm sure it won't be a problem to get you the guaranteed spot in the city-level competition.""Please do, Mr. Cobb. As long as you resolve this issue for me, I'll be forever indebted to you," Whitney said urgently as she clutched Fergus' arm.Fergus declared, "Of course. I'll call my dad right away."He walked off to the side. The call lasted quite some time, but when he came back, his expression was a little grim."How did it go, Mr. Cobb?" Whitney frantically asked.Fergus scratched his head awkwardly.His father had berated him and called him a lust-driven braggart who was blindly showing off in an attempt to woo a woman. He also refused to help out with getting a guaranteed spot in the city-level competition.Just then, Mabel got a call. When she answered it, she was so happy t

    Sebastian was the reason why Frostwave Corporation got a guaranteed spot in the city-level competition?The moment he said that, everyone froze in confusion and disbelief."You're so shameless, Sebastian. I can't believe you had the nerve to say that!" Mabel scoffed disdainfully.She eyed Sebastian in contempt.Fergus almost laughed until his sides hurt. "You sure know how to flatter yourself, Sebastian! You'll never be able to accomplish what I can get done with a single call! If that upsets you, well, here's a word of advice—suck it up!"Sebastian cocked an eyebrow and retorted with an icy gaze, "It's not always that easy to steal credit for something. Careful, or it might end up backfiring on you.""What do you mean by that, huh? Who else should get the credit, if not me? Don't tell me it's you!" Fergus growled in fury with a stormy expression.Mabel piped up, "You're just jealous, Sebastian! Mr. Cobb is way more capable than you are! Is it so hard for you to admit it?"Frow

    As the man in the black robe yelled, the entire hall fell silent at once. The thin old man threw the black-robed old man a disgruntled look, but he returned obediently to his seat.Once the noise had died down, Preston stepped forward and swept an icy gaze over the crowd who were present. "You call yourself the elders of the family?"The monument of our ancestral dragon is right in front of you. How could you bully two young members of the family in front of it? Don't you feel any shame?"Besides, how dare you speak before Arnaud does?"After the harsh scolding they received from Preston, no one in the crowd dared to protest. Sebastian nodded involuntarily. It appeared that Preston did have influence in the Ballard family. At least no one had interrupted his scolding, including Arnaud and the man in the black robe.Preston huffed angrily and bowed to Arnaud, who sat in the middle. "Arnaud, I've brought Samson and Sebastian!"Preston went over to the chair next to the black-robe

    "Sebastian, I won't be going in. Remember, don't say anything without being spoken to, and don't be impulsive!" Andreas said softly in Sebastian's ear when they reached the door to the hall. He then walked over to the crowd, which was packed on both sides of the hall.Samson and Preston walked into the hall without any change in expression. Sebastian hesitated for a moment before hurrying to catch up.When they reached the entrance, the two old men reached out to stop them and said to Preston, who was in the lead, "Preston, I'm afraid that it wouldn't be a good idea for you to go in. Everyone knows that you're biased toward Samson's family. If you get into an argument with Arnaud, then—""Nonsense!" Preston yelled furiously. He spoke in a menacing tone to the two old men. "Don't try those tricks with me. Today, I'm going to be the voice of reason. Who among you can do anything to me?"With that, he pushed them aside and strode into the hall.The two old men gazed after his ret

    The Ballard Estate's resources were unfathomable as it was. Could Isabella's family be even more powerful than theirs?Sebastian clearly remembered that both he and Samson were under the Sacred Medicine Society. They even had the same mentor.The Sacred Medicine Society was above all the other mystic martial arts sects. Even the sect leaders of the Nine Sects were very respectful toward his mentor.If Samson really was from the same sect as Sebastian, then his mentor had clearly been unable to save him. Wouldn't that mean that the Sacred Medicine Society was no match for the Ballards?Wouldn't that mean that Isabella's family was an even greater entity?"If my mother's family is really that powerful, why couldn't they rescue my father? There would also be no reason to let me join the Sacred Medicine Society either, right?" Sebastian asked probingly. It seemed as if Andreas had never even thought about such questions. He smiled and shook his head. "You probably don't know about a

    As they stepped out of the courtyard gate, Samson suddenly turned and lowered his voice as he said to Sebastian, "I didn't treat you and your mother well. Please don't hold it against me."Sebastian felt even more conflicted. After everything he had been through, he knew very well that there were times when one really had no choice. When Samson saw that Sebastian was looking at him with a conflicted expression, he patted him on the shoulder and gave him a warm smile. Then he took a token from Preston and walked out of the yard.They followed Preston as he walked toward the east, where there was a majestic-looking building."Why are you helping me?" Sebastian suddenly turned and asked Andreas in a low voice. Andreas glanced at him and gave him a long, cryptic smile. "Do you think I'm helping you? I'm helping myself while doing so!""Oh?" Sebastian looked at Andreas in confusion, his brow knitted. Even Rexton had mentioned that Andreas was in Arnaud's favor. Why would he need t

    When Rexton and the others had gone, Preston turned to look at Samson and said irritatedly, "You little rascal. Would I ever hurt you?"Besides, you've been here in isolation for ten years. Why hasn't your temper changed at all? Couldn't you show me some respect in front of all those people?"Samson glanced at Preston but didn't answer.Preston huffed and ignored him. He turned and looked Sebastian up and down instead."Hey, kiddo. Over ten years have passed in just the blink of an eye. You've probably forgotten me. I even gave you candy back then! Come over here and call me Great Uncle Preston!"Sebastian looked at him in surprise. It was true that he didn't have much of an impression of what had happened over ten years ago. However, he could tell from what Preston had said and done that his attitude toward Sebastian's family was completely different from Rexton and the others.Beside Sebastian, Andreas kept shooting him meaningful looks. Sebastian finally smiled and said, "Hell

    Although the old man looked as if he was over 60 years old, his expression was sharp and lively, and his skin was smooth as a baby's. It gave him a youthful air.Even the severely injured apprentices all scrambled up from the ground when they saw him. They hastily bowed and said, "Greetings, Great Uncle Preston!"Even Rexton had no choice but to suppress his anger. He bowed sullenly to the old man and said, "Greetings, Uncle Preston."Preston Ballard glanced at Rexton and turned to shout angrily at the apprentices, "If I hadn't come, were you planning to tear the Ballard Estate apart? Look at all of you! Get out of here right now!"Despite the scolding they had been subjected to, none of them dared to protest. They all lowered their heads and slunk out of the yard. Preston glared angrily at them as they went and snorted. "What an embarrassment to the family!"Then he smiled slightly and looked at Samson and Sebastian as he asked, "Samson, do you have anything to say?"Samson lo

    Rexton's pupils constricted, and the muscles in his face twitched. He stared at Samson with a wary look in his eyes. He and Samson were two minor stages apart. It was no laughing matter. If the two of them began to fight, Rexton would be sure to die if he didn't have any external assistance."What's the matter? Are you scared?" Samson sneered as he asked in a cold, accusatory tone. That flipped a switch in Rexton's head. His expression changed instantly, and he turned a fierce look on Samson. "Afraid?" he asked through gritted teeth.As he spoke, Rexton seemed to make up his mind. He slowly reached into his pocket and took out a pale blue paper charm, which looked thicker than usual.The paper charm was oppressive to look at. Sebastian instinctively sensed a threatening energy approaching!Even Samson looked wary when he saw the paper charm."Uncle Rexton, this is a Soulcrush Charm. Great Uncle Arnaud has clearly said that no one in the Ballard Estate is allowed to use spiri

    Sebastian immediately felt the pressure around him drop. The feeling of being pinned down disappeared as well."How dare you—"Before Rexton could finish, a shadow flashed past him, and Samson popped up right in front of him.Samson stuck out his finger as if it were a sword and tapped him on the chest. Although Samson hadn't used any strength, Rexton could see the murderous look in his eyes. There was a dot of scarlet light that swirled around Samson's finger. A crimson rune was gradually appearing, and there was a chilling, murderous sensation in the air. Sebastian gasped. He had finally realized how the mystic spells should be used, and he was in awe. It wasn't that Sebastian was unable to do it. It was just that up until then, he had only seen the mystic sect apprentices of the secular world. Perhaps their understanding of how to use mystic spells was too superficial, which was why Sebastian's perception had also been affected.Realization only dawned on him when he saw

    At Rexton's roar of fury, everyone turned to look at Samson, who was still standing there quietly without moving."A traitor? Murder?"There was finally a flicker of emotion on Samson's face. A sudden glimmer of light flared in his eyes, which had been devoid of life for a long time."Rexton, you know very well how your father died!"As Samson spoke, he walked toward Rexton with a steady step as he said, "I admit that I've wronged Sebastian and his mother. I was just too soft-hearted back then. That's why I believed your lies and tried to keep the big picture in mind for the Ballards, but look at how you've treated me!"There was suddenly a cold glint in Samson's eyes, and he said in a thunderous tone, "You set up a series of traps and tried to kill and torture my wife and son!"You pursued them until the ends of the earth! If my mentor hadn't rescued Sebastian, do you think he'd still be alive today?"Did you just accuse me of murder? Did you ever think of the fact that we're f
