The Amazing Doctor Chapter 1214
Sebastian couldn't help frowning. He hadn't expected Bianca to be so ruthless. She had aimed to incapacitate Rose with just one move."Mr. Ballard, there's probably nothing that can be done about my wounds, is there? I'll probably end up losing all the results of my training, right?" Rose asked, looking very calm.Sebastian nodded slightly and said, "That's right. If you hadn't met me, you would end up as a cripple."He took out an energy replenishing pill from the Sky Devouring Bottle and gave it to Rose. "Although this energy replenishing pill can stabilize your wounds for the time being, you must not use your vital energy for seven days," he said seriously. He added, "Otherwise, the consequences will be dire. If there's nothing important you have to do, you can stay here for a while and leave when you've recovered." Sebastian instructed the staff to prepare a small room for Rose in the Moonlyte Club so that she could stay and recuperate.…The next day, Sebastian rushed to

"Oh? You're not joking around with me, are you, Mr. Sutton? What kind of consultant could I be?"Cyrus wasn't an idiot. He didn't know anything about managing a business at all. How could he be a consultant?"You're a rare talent, Mr. Torenby. If we can get your help, we'll get a green light all the way, right?" Ryder was making things up with a straight face.It wasn't true at all. Ryder wanted to use Cyrus to go against Sebastian with him, as Sebastian had so many connections in Steinberg."Well, you certainly have good taste." Cyrus was gleeful. Sunway was full of his father's old employees, and he was sure that there was nobody more suitable than him in terms of his network of connections."However, I'm uncertain about whether or not I can continue leading Frostwave Corporation," Ryder said, looking sad. "What? Is someone competing with you for the position?" Cyrus asked, frowning."Well, no. It's just that there are some people who don't want me to stay in Frostwave Corpora

"I was sitting here the entire time, and I didn't move. How could I have bumped into him?" Sebastian asked calmly."How dare you try and make excuses?" Cyrus yelled, pointing at Sebastian."What's wrong? What's happening?" A middle-aged man in a black suit rushed over."Mr. Chestwood, there's been a little conflict. We're dealing with it," the leader of the security guards said to the middle-aged man, whose name was Corey Chestwood. "What's the conflict about?" Corey walked forward and bowed immediately when he saw that it was Cyrus. "Oh, it's Mr. Torenby! My apologies for the disrespect."Cyrus looked sideways at Corey and said, "Mr. Chestwood, he bumped into me and spilled my red wine. It splashed all over me! Tell me what you're going to do about it."Corey turned to Sebastian and said, "Hurry up and apologize to Mr. Torenby!"Sebastian frowned and said, "How can I bump into anyone when I was just sitting here?""Don't talk nonsense! If you kneel and apologize to me right n

"Dad, this guy doesn't even have an invitation. I was telling the security guards to kick him out," Cyrus said, pointing to Sebastian."What are you standing there for? Kick him out!" Glen said, looking impatient.Since Glen had said so, Corey was even more impolite to Sebastian. He pointed at the door and said loudly, "I'm asking you to leave right now!""I just hope you don't regret it," Sebastian said. He got up and walked out."Pfft! What the hell was that?" Cyrus spat at Sebastian's back. Sebastian had just reached the elevators when Dexter, Harold, and an old man walked out. "Sebastian, where are you going? The auction is about to start," Harold said in confusion."There's a manager in there called Mr. Chestwood who doesn't seem to want me around. He asked me to leave at once, so I thought I'd better go," Sebastian said, smiling widely."What?" Harold was furious. He yelled at the door, "Where's the person in charge today? Get over here right now!"He was Dexter's son-
The Amazing Doctor Chapter 1218
Dexter frowned impatiently.The security guards hastily towed Corey into the stairwell. Right after that, there was the sound of someone screaming. "You, get over here!" Harold pointed at the middle-aged, fat man. "Mr. Tennyson!" The fat, middle-aged man had gone pale with fright. Corey had just been dragged out, and he was one of the top executives of their security company. They had just broken his legs without any hesitation! They were ruthless. He had no allies or support at all. Even if Harold decided to slaughter him, he could not do anything about it. "Get Glen and his son Cyrus out of here! Tell them to get lost!" Harold yelled angrily. "Yes, sir!" The fat, middle-aged man nodded quickly. He waved his hand, and over a dozen security guards rushed into the hall. He pointed at Glen and Cyrus and shouted furiously, "Get these two assholes out of here!Meanwhile, Cyrus was showing off gleefully to Ryder."Mr. Sutton, why would you be afraid of Sebastian? I showed him
The Amazing Doctor Chapter 1219
Glen only had the guts to yell at Harold, but not Dexter. Everyone knew how ruthless and cruel the head of the Coltrane family could be."I told you two to get lost right now!" Dexter boomed.Everyone present was frightened into silence once more.Dexter hadn't lost his temper in public for close to 20 years, but he was in such a rage that day that the Torenbys were doomed. They wouldn't be able to survive in Sunway again."Mr. Coltrane Senior… I…""They told you to get lost. Didn't you hear them?" Sebastian asked. He was grinning and standing at the back. "You?" Glen immediately made the connection. He turned and started pummeling Cyrus viciously."Throw them out!" Dexter ordered impatiently. Over a dozen security guards converged on the Torenbys and dragged them out. Ryder was huddled in a corner, shocked at what he had seen. He hadn't expected Dexter to also take Sebastian's side.However, as soon as he lowered his head, Harold grabbed him by the collar and slapped him se
The Amazing Doctor Chapter 1220
Dexter had only just sat down when the host walked onto the stage and said loudly, "To all our respected friends and guests. The auction will now officially begin."The audience burst into a roar of applause, and Sebastian clapped along obligingly once or twice."Now, let us welcome the first item for auction today. The King's Son."As soon as the host had finished, a young lady opened a red wooden box. She took out a rolled-up painting from inside and spread it out in front of everyone."Oh, it really does have the authentic flair of Basil!""How exquisite!""As expected of a master's work!"The crowd cried out in surprise. The appearance of the painting had pushed the auction to its climax."Starting at 20 million!""30 million!""35 million!""36 million!"The bids rang out among the audience. Dexter frowned and said to Emmanuel, "Mr. Carthen, how much do you think this painting is worth?"Emmanuel leaned back in his seat, looking triumphant as he said, "I think this pa

Sebastian finally couldn't resist laughing. He stood up and said, "That's the most ridiculous joke I've heard this year.""You little—" The plump middle-aged man and Emmanuel both glared huffily at Sebastian. "Sebastian, you said that this painting is worthless, but what evidence do you have?" Dexter asked, smiling. "Mr. Coltrane Senior, 'The King's Son' isn't done by Basil at all. It was painted by Dorian Worcester. Besides, the religion of Astralix only began to grow in popularity during the Tannin era, and 'The King's Son' depicts a scene from the Astralix scriptures," Sebastian said, smiling.Sebastian's voice wasn't loud, but every word seemed to hammer upon the hearts of those who were listening. He grinned as he looked at Emmanuel and said, "Mr. Carthen, this is basic general knowledge. How could you not know that when you've been studying antiques for such a long time?"Emmanuel turned bright red and looked away, not daring to look at Sebastian.The fat man clenched h

Sebastian threw his head back in laughter. He strode forward, standing in the center of the hall, and said coldly. "Ungrateful? How could you have the audacity to say such a thing?"Even if I'm surrounded by enemies, you Ballards can forget about making me submit! It's just death, after all. If I even blink, then I won't call myself a man!"Everyone there stared at Sebastian."How dare that brat be so cocky? If he's not punished, it'll be a disgrace to our family rules!""He should be given the death penalty!""It'll be a disaster if we just let him be, and it'll only bring trouble for our family. Please give the order, and we'll kill him at once!"The entire hall was in an uproar. Even Preston, who had been speaking up for Sebastian and Samson, sighed in resignation.Since Sebastian had already made his stance clear, Preston couldn't help even if he wanted to.Sebastian had roused the anger of everyone there, and Arnaud had closed his eyes and wasn't saying anything. He was cl

Sebastian was just about to step forward when Samson hastily waved a hand at him and said, "Sebastian, the grudges of the Ballard family from over ten years ago have nothing to do with you. Don't get involved!""But—"Sebastian's gaze sharpened as he turned to look at Milton. There was an icy glint in his eyes. Samson shook his head slightly at Sebastian. The Ballard Estate had at least ten experts at the eighth level of the Eldoria realm. At Sebastian's current level, trying to fight them would only bring him big trouble."Sebastian, one must learn how to adapt to the situation," Samson whispered into his ear using voice projection. "Today, I will exchange my legs for your and Whitney's freedom. Think of it as a payment for what I owe you and your mother."Sebastian clenched his fists tightly. He hated himself for being too weak. He couldn't even protect his own family in a place like the Ballard Estate, where many experts were gathered.However, he would never allow anyone to

"Do you accept it, Samson?" Arnaud asked harshly when he saw that Preston hadn't said anything else. He turned to look directly at Samson.Samson smiled bitterly and turned to look at Sebastian before raising his head to look at Arnaud, who was sitting high above them. He said, "Uncle Arnaud, I was the reason for everything that happened. I wish to ask you not to trouble Sebastian.""What are you talking about?" Preston was agitated. He stood up again and yelled, "There must still be an investigation about who was right and who was wrong. Why should they break your legs?"As he spoke, his eyes blazed with fury. He looked at the thin old man and said furiously, "Milton, you old bastard! How can you be so shameless at your age? Tell me! Did you embellish the story to Arnaud?""Uncle Preston!" Samson stopped him quickly and sighed slightly. "Forget it. It's my fault for bringing such huge trouble upon our family back then."I admit that I have let our family down. Since imprisoning m

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 Amazing Doctor Chapter 2047
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
The Amazing Doctor Chapter 2045
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
The Amazing Doctor Chapter 2044
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
