Chapter 1284

Author: Wendell Mayhew
Bernard, whom Jaxon was so proud of, had bowed to Sebastian and had proposed a toast for him. However, Sebastian had been dismissive of him.

Everyone at the table looked at Jaxon with both contempt and compassion.

Sebastian's lips barely touched the glass before he put it back on the table.

"Alright! Thank you, Mr. Ballard. I'll get going." Bernard returned to the main table. His face had turned bright red.

"Mr. Lark, was that your uncle?" Hayden looked sympathetically at Jaxon.

"Your uncle didn't seem to have any plans to drink with you."

"Is he really your uncle?"

"Do he and your dad have the same mother?"

"Does he dislike you?"

Everyone at the table chattered simultaneously, making Jaxon turn bright red. He hung his head, unable to say a word.

He hated Sebastian with a vengeance. Without him around, he would have gotten all the glory. He felt that there was only contempt and scorn in Rosalie's eyes when she looked at him.

However, just as Jaxon was feeling completely h

    Sebastian suddenly thought of someone. Rose!"Rose?" Sebastian tapped out a message quickly and sent it back, but there was no answer."Let's go home," Sebastian said to Rosalie in a low voice."Oh, okay." Rosalie put down the pastry she was holding and picked up her bag. She left the hall with Sebastian. Seeing that Sebastian had gotten into Rosalie's car, Jaxon sent another message to the bald man. His name was Willie Korne.After Rosalie's car had driven slowly out of the parking lot, Jaxon walked quickly over to his own car and caught up to her. Sebastian and Rosalie would have to pass over a stone bridge on their way back to the Moonlyte Club from the Cosmo Hotel, and the area around the bridge was practically deserted. At night, even the street lights flickered on and off. There were also very few pedestrians at night. Rosalie's car had just driven onto the bridge when a large truck drove over from the end of the bridge. It swung across the road and stopped, blocking

    Although Willie was afraid, he knew what the rules were. Even if he died, he could not betray his employer.Sebastian grinned as he looked at Willie and said, "You're pretty tough, huh? It's alright. Let me help you remember."As soon as he spoke, Sebastian kicked Willie's calf. There was a crack, and Willie screamed and fainted from the pain. Sebastian bent over and took out a silver needle, which he used to prick some of Willie's main acupuncture points. He woke up at once."Do you remember now?" Sebastian asked, smiling broadly."I… I really…" Willie only got halfway through his sentence before Sebastian's silver needle plunged into his pain acupuncture point. He felt an intense pain from deep in his bone marrow, which traveled all over his body instantly.It hurt so much that his voice changed. The more he struggled, the more it hurt, and he fainted a few more times from the pain. Sebastian roused him every single time.Willie finally understood something. The scariest th

    When Jaxon saw the murderous look in Sebastian's eyes, he couldn't help taking a few steps backward. He suddenly slipped and fell down next to the sedan. He felt something sticky under his fingers.Jaxon looked down at his hand instinctively and realized that it was covered in blood. He turned white with fear."I'm sure you were framed, Mr. Lark. How would someone like you know people like them?" Sebastian said, chuckling."That's right! You're right, Mr. Ballard! I really don't know him." Jaxon grimaced. "How about we call the police to arrest him and clear your name, Mr. Lark?" Sebastian asked, smiling."No, no! I don't think we need to do that. After all, you weren't hurt. Arresting people like them wouldn't achieve anything. They'll only try to get revenge in future," Jaxon said quickly. He didn't want Willie to be arrested. If Willie gave him up, he would be ruined."Alright. I'll take your advice, Mr. Lark. However, please take care of things here and move the truck in f

    Although Rose tried her best to dodge, one of the black-clad men still hit her in the back, and she spat out a mouthful of blood."Kill them!" Rose pulled out a three-foot-long sword from around her waist and tossed a knife to Sebastian.What every woman cared the most about was their appearance, even if they were an assassin.The scratch on her face had incensed Rose. Sebastian caught the knife and immediately became even more dangerous. The black-clad men saw that they were at a disadvantage. One of them suddenly pulled out a bow from behind him and shot several arrows at Sebastian and Rose. Sebastian and Rose dodged quickly, and the black-clad men grabbed the opportunity. They turned and disappeared into the night."Gavin!" Sebastian rushed over to Gavin and saw that the latter was unconscious. He examined him quickly and saw that he only had broken two ribs. He had no serious internal injuries.Reassured, Sebastian picked him up and walked over to Rosalie's sedan.Rose f

    Rosalie sighed deeply and backed slowly out of the room.In the current circumstances, there wasn't much she could do to help. It would be better to let Sebastian take care of the issue in a calm manner. Sebastian stared at Rose on the bed, feeling troubled.It wasn't that he did not have a solution. It was just that if he wanted to save Rose, he would have to take off all her clothes. Otherwise, he would not be able to force the poison out, which meant that she would certainly die.Sebastian reached out a few times to tear her clothes off but shrank back. After all, Rose was around his age. Even if he wanted to save her, he needed her consent. Rose spat out another mouthful of dark blood, and she turned even paler. Her lips were going from dark purple to black.Sebastian saw that she was about to die, and he reached out to tear off her clothes. There was a bloody imprint on her snow-white back.He bent down without thinking and began sucking at her wound. With every mouthful

    "You lowlife!" Rose yelled angrily through gritted teeth. She could not accept Sebastian's explanation at all. Sebastian shook her head. He could see that Rose's injuries had stabilized, so he stood up and walked over to the side of the bed. He pulled up her blanket and pulled out the silver needle stuck in the acupuncture point near her navel.Rose was shaking with anger, and tears started in her beautiful eyes."I have to pull this needle out. I can't let it stay in your stomach, can I?" Sebastian asked innocently.Rose turned her head away and refused to look at him. All she wanted at that moment was to stab him to death.However, she could feel waves of intense pain from the wound on her back. A look of pain appeared on her face."Eat this pill, and the wound on your back won't hurt you anymore," Sebastian said, handing her a black pill. "I won't eat it!" Rose said as tears fell down her cheeks.No man had ever seen her body before, but Sebastian had seen everything tha

    Rosalie nodded slightly at Sebastian, indicating that he could use the consultation room at the hospital.Sebastian said to Isabel over the phone, "Ms. Jimenez, let's meet at the clinic on the first floor of St. James Hospital in half an hour.""Alright. Are you seeing patients at St. James Hospital now, Mr. Ballard? That's just a privately owned hospital. If you want to work in medicine, I can help you contact the public hospitals in Sunway," Isabel seized the opportunity to try and connect with him."No, that hospital is owned by a friend of mine. It's just more convenient to meet there," Sebastian said. He hung up at once. Sebastian had never even thought about working in medicine. Before he broke through to the Eldoria realm, he would not consider it.…"We meet again, Mr. Ballard." Half an hour later, Marissa pushed open the door to the clinic on the first floor of St. James Hospital. She smiled at Sebastian in greeting."Please sit down, Marissa," Sebastian said. He took

    Marissa was amused by what Sebastian had said. She took out a wad of hundred-dollar bills from her bag and put it down firmly on the table, saying, "36? I'd give you 36 thousand!"Sebastian only accepted 36 dollars from her in the end. He had always been an honest man. He would only accept what was owed and not a penny more.After sending Marissa off, Isabel continued toying with the white porcelain bottle. There was a strange light shining in her eyes."What's so interesting about that bottle?" Sebastian asked, frowning."Mr. Ballard, do you and your friend know how to run a business or not?" Isabel laughed at Sebastian's question. "If we didn't, how could we run such a big hospital?" he asked, confused.The truth was that the income from the hospital only barely broke even. After paying the doctors, they only had about 20 or 30 thousand left every month.The money wasn't helpful at all for Arctic Snow Group as a whole."Is that what you meant when you said that you know how

    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 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
