Oliver's gaze swept over the title deed, and he sighed deeply.Haltona Gate was one of the most valuable areas in Draepolis, where every bit of land was expensive. However, could Sebastian's wrath be assuaged with that title deed?Even Oliver couldn't help shaking his head. Despite this, he took the title deed and said, "Alright, I'll take it on Mr. Ballard's behalf. As for how he will answer, I can't guarantee anything.""Thank you, Mr. Griffin Senior." Despite what Oliver had said, Blake still thanked him. After apologizing profusely to Rosalie once more, he left.As Oliver watched Blake walk off, he sighed and said, "Rosalie, call Sebastian later and explain this to him. If he refuses to forgive the Warrior League, there's nothing we can say. After all, this martial arts battle had nothing to do with him to begin with. The Warrior League really did cross the line here."However, it would be best if Sebastian could agree to Madam Dragon's suggestion. It would be like having dual

"Mr. Ballard, let me make the introductions. This is Rupert Lannister. He's the CEO of Astro International in Sunway, and he's also the richest man in Sartvale."The middle-aged man looked rather proud when he heard Leopold's introduction. As the richest man in Sartvale, he was always the center of attention no matter where he went. He was the person whom people always tried to curry favor with.He felt that although he had a favor to ask of Leopold, Sebastian would behave obsequiously to him just like all the other geomancers did.However, unexpectedly, Sebastian only gave him an impassive nod. He didn't even shake hands with Rupert before sitting down in the seat opposite him.Rupert's brow furrowed, and he looked at Sebastian in displeasure.Was Sebastian expecting Rupert to take the initiative in greeting him?Leopold turned quickly and gestured toward Sebastian. He looked reverential as he said, "Mr. Lannister, this is the man I mentioned to you yesterday. "He's Mr. Ballar

Sebastian had just left the room when he heard Rupert's roar of fury behind him.Leopold's gaze swept coldly over Rupert. He huffed quietly and turned to rush out of the room and go after Sebastian.As Rupert watched Sebastian and Leopold walk off, he clenched his fists tightly and ground his teeth.Those two charlatans had just left him there! He could not endure such treatment!At that thought, Rupert turned and said to a black-clad bodyguard behind him, "Send someone to investigate that Ballard's background. I'd like to see if that cocky young brat can withstand my wrath!""Yes, sir!" The black-clad bodyguard answered before going off to carry out his orders.…Leopold soon caught up with Sebastian. "Mr. Ballard, please don't misunderstand. I didn't accept the Astro International case for money. It's just that people kept dying on that construction site. I couldn't stand seeing any more innocent workmen die tragically, so I—"Sebastian nodded slightly. From the way Leopold h

Sebastian took less than 30 minutes to complete the interview. The middle-aged man who had come to apply for the job of factory director was named Brock Harley. He had extensive experience in management and had also brought up several constructive suggestions of his own. After Sebastian studied the proposals that Brock had submitted, he immediately made a decision and told Brock to start work at the factory that very afternoon. Brock thanked Sebastian profusely and tidied his things up before rushing over to the Northside pharmaceutical factory at once.Before Sebastian left, he called Seth Friar at the factory and told him briefly about Brock before heading to the convenience store.The moment he entered, Whitney hurried up to him and asked, "Sebastian, how did the interview go? Does Brock have the qualifications of a director?"Sebastian handed Brock's résumé to Whitney and said, "He used to manage a large pharmaceutical company in another state, and he also suggested a few

Upon seeing Whitney staring nervously at him, Sebastian told her everything that Drew had said.When she heard that Shannon was still missing, Whitney breathed out a long sigh of relief. For Sally and her family, no news was good news. At least it was better than hearing that Shannon had been one of the dried corpses."Sebastian, I think I need to tell Uncle Nelson the news personally. I won't stay over tonight," Whitney said, watching Sebastian's reaction closely. When Sebastian only nodded impassively, Whitney smiled wryly and turned to go and pack her things inside the room.In the past, Sebastian would definitely have asked if she needed him to go with her. At the very least, he would have shown her more concern. However, he really only treated her like a business partner now, being all aloof and impassive.After watching Whitney's car drive off, Sebastian exhaled and turned to go to his inner room. "My lord…" Nina suddenly called out hesitantly to him.Sebastian turne

"Who the hell are you calling a country bumpkin?" Hans was furious. He pointed at Jensen and shouted, "You must have a death wish!"Jensen ignored him and went straight to Ethan. He hugged him affectionately and said, "I congratulate you in advance for your success, Mr. Whitehall."Ethan burst into laughter and said, "Thank you for those kind words, Jensen."Realizing that he had been ignored completely, Hans balled up his fists and gritted his teeth. "If it wasn't for the fact that I don't want to affect Mr. Ballard's reputation, I'd bring my men over to chop him into pieces right now!"Beside him, Theodore rolled his eyes. His brow furrowed as he asked, "Hans, do you know who he is?""Who?"Theodore looked somber as he said, "He's the notorious Jensen Donovan, known for being bold enough to trick even the Rothblends! It's said that his riches are equal to that of a nation, and the Donovans actually have several world-renowned assassin organizations on their payroll."Hans brok

"Mr. Ballard got here in advance and snuck quietly into the audience seats because he didn't want to attract too much attention," Eugene said to Hans. "If we mess things up for him, can you bear the responsibility?"Hans pursed his lips awkwardly and lowered his head as he followed the others into the venue.…Sebastian and Rosalie were seated in the audience. They ate popcorn as they watched Ethan and his cronies.Elara was seated in the row behind Sebastian and Rosalie. She leaned over to Sebastian and pointed to Emil, who was following behind Ethan. "Sebastian, the guy with the Yutarian saber is Emil," she said. 'I heard from my mother that he's killed many of Dramon's martial arts practitioners over the past few years. Even Mr. Lombart of the Zen Sect was almost killed by him.""Oh? That's him?" Sebastian narrowed his eyes and scrutinized Emil.He had chosen to sit unnoticed in the audience because he wanted to get to know the opponents that he was about to face.Although

Grant shook his gleaming sword at Emil. "I'm Grant Lake from the Warrior League!"Emil looked sideways at him and smiled stiffly as he said, "I see that it's an abandoned dog!"Grant's expression darkened at once. He had once been one of the elders of the Summit Sword Sect.However, the Summit Sword Sect had been destroyed 20 years ago through the joint efforts of the Martial Arts Association and over ten other sects.After that, Grant had become lost without a sect. He had only been brought to the Warrior League after he met Derek.Emil was pouring salt into his wound! How could Grant not be angry?"You Yutarian rat! I can cut off your head with just one hand!" Grant shouted and glared angrily at Emil."With one hand?" Emil laughed loudly. He fondled the hilt of his saber and scoffed as he shook his head slightly. "How dare an abandoned dog like you speak so arrogantly?"Emil's figure flashed at an unnatural speed as he shot toward Grant. He moved so fast that his shadow seeme

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
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

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
