Mabel rushed after her and yelled, "Ms. Sutton, Ms. Sutton, listen to me! Actually, we don't have to be in such a hurry about this."Even if it's a lie, Sebastian is the one lying to him. You're divorced! Why do you care so much?" Mabel stomped her foot in dismay when Whitney ignored her and kept going.At the same time, in the private room on the second floor, Howard had just taken his seat again. He smiled at Sebastian. "Dr. Ballard, guess who was the person downstairs who wanted to talk to me about collaborating?"Sebastian frowned slightly. Then he shook his head and laughed. "I don't know."Howard said quickly, "Your ex-wife, Ms. Sutton of Frostwave Corporation."Whitney?Sebastian was startled. He looked doubtfully at Howard and asked, "Whitney?""Yes." Howard laughed. "Dr. Ballard, I have to say that your ex-wife is really very beautiful and also very elegant. You have excellent taste."Sebastian's brow wrinkled. He looked distracted.Whitney wanted to discuss a colla

Sebastian's expression darkened, and he laughed to himself.However, Whitney continued cuttingly, "Sebastian, I don't have time to talk nonsense with you. If you're using your superstitious tricks to deceive Mr. Tuffin, I advise you to go and apologize to him right now and explain everything. I'll help you take care of the rest." She spoke forcefully and was very domineering. It seemed that Whitney already assumed that Sebastian was a conman. Sebastian snorted, and there was a note of sarcasm and exasperation in his voice. "Ms. Sutton, am I that terrible in your eyes? Do you think that everything I do is just a scam?" Sebastian spoke slowly, and his tone was ice-cold. Whitney's brow furrowed, and she said, "What are you trying to say?""I want to tell you that I'm not deceiving anybody. If you don't believe me, we can ask Mr. Tuffin right now!""Ask him right now?"Whitney was furious, and she said angrily, "Sebastian, how long are you going to keep up this act? Why can't you

Whitney returned to the research department of Frostwave Corporation. Theresa was dressed in a white lab coat, examining the formula for the Goldcrow pill. "How's it going, Theresa? Did you really manage to modify it?" Whitney asked as she rushed inside. Theresa looked at the formula on the table and compared the modified formula on her computer with the experimental result data. She turned and proudly handed the data to Whitney. "There, have a look!"Whitney took the data and glanced through it. The expression on her face changed from doubt to excitement and joy!"You really managed to improve it?" Whitney shouted in shock, excitement dancing in her eyes. Theresa shrugged, looking proud and triumphant as she said, "It's nothing."Whitney grabbed her excitedly and shouted, "Thank you so much, Theresa! You're my lucky star!"Theresa hugged her back. Then, she laughed slyly and asked, "Well, since I did you such a big favor, how are you planning to thank me?"Whitney immedia

"The doctor left Steinberg six months ago and began traveling around. We have no way of finding him," Mabel said earnestly. Upon hearing her explanation, Theresa didn't pursue the subject further.Whitney looked meaningfully at Mabel, gesturing for her to step outside.Once in the rest area, Whitney asked her in confusion, "Mabel, why did you lie?"Mabel said seriously, "Ms. Sutton, are you planning on telling Ms. Livington that Sebastian gave us the formula?""Why not? The formula does belong to him," Whitney said, frowning. Mabel explained, "Ms. Sutton, don't forget that Ms. Livington is a medicine expert who returned from abroad. She's fixated on certain things. If she knew that Sebastian gave us the formula, who do you think she'll help when the time comes?"Whitney's heart missed a beat. She was shocked by Mabel's words.Mabel pressed on, "If Ms. Livington switches sides, Frostwave Corporation will have to face two enemies!"Whitney's expression darkened. She frowned an

"Birthday party?" Sebastian frowned slightly and apologized. "Ms. Griffin, I have some personal affairs to attend to tonight. I don't think I'll be able to make it."Rosalie immediately pulled on his arm and pouted. "Dr. Ballard, can't you just spend a little bit of time with me?" she pleaded. "I want to introduce you to my friends! Also, I'm going to give you a very special gift at my party.""You want to give me a gift?" Sebastian was rather surprised. Wasn't this her birthday party? Why was she giving him a gift?Rosalie tightened her hold on his arm and said sweetly, "Dr. Ballard, please just spend my birthday with me once! Okay?"Sebastian had no choice but to nod and agree. With that, Rosalie pulled Sebastian happily and said, "Let's go! I'm going to buy you some clothes and get you styled.""Buy clothes? Get me styled?"Sebastian was a little shocked. He hurriedly shook his head and said, "Forget it. I think I'm fine the way I am right now.""No, tonight's my birthd

Fergus was immediately charmed and said, "Let's go in.""Alright," Whitney answered.The three of them walked into the hall.They had just entered when sharp-eyed Mabel spotted Sebastian and Rosalie sitting in the lounge in the distance. "Hey, Ms. Sutton, isn't that Sebastian? He's here too?" Mabel was displeased. Whitney turned to look. She immediately noticed Sebastian and Rosalie laughing and talking together, and her expression darkened at once. She hadn't expected to meet Sebastian there. Seeing him with that woman made her even more upset. What a scumbag!He had clearly said he had no feelings for Rosalie, but Whitney had caught him with her multiple times. Men were all liars!Fergus frowned when he saw them and said coldly, "Hmph! We see this guy everywhere. Doesn't he know what kind of event this is? How dare he sneak in here? Let's go and have a look, Whitney!" He started walking toward Sebastian.Whitney was startled and was about to call Fergus back, but he

Everyone went quiet after she'd finished. Then, in the next second, there was a resounding slap. Rosalie had slapped Mabel! "I advise you to be more respectful. Otherwise, you'll die a wretched death!" she warned icily. Rosalie was undoubtedly the one with the upper hand at that moment.Mabel looked completely flabbergasted. She held her red and swollen cheek as she stammered, "Y-you hit me! Mr. Cobb, this bitch hit me!"Fergus frowned and looked at Rosalie in displeasure. He said coldly, "You're Rosalie Griffin, aren't you? Don't you think it's too much to hit someone in public? Besides, Ms. Lucero is the secretary of Frostwave Corporation! Slapping her is the same as insulting Ms. Sutton!"Fergus looked at Sebastian as he spoke. He had only said that to shift the blame to Sebastian. After all, Mabel was Whitney's secretary, and Rosalie was with Sebastian. It might ignite the rage in Whitney's heart. Rosalie tossed her head arrogantly. She didn't even want to bother with
The Amazing Doctor Chapter 196
"Oh my! It's Stephen, the second son of the Beckards! Let's go and say hello!" Fergus immediately recognized the man that everyone was surrounding. He hurriedly dragged Mabel and a reluctant Whitney over. Stephen was the second son of the Beckards of Janover. He was a typical rich playboy!His reputation in Janover wasn't that great, as he was a total Casanova. He was also an avid suitor of Rosalie!There were rumors that he had once chartered more than ten yachts on the Jeston River in Janover and filled them with the freshest roses in the city. He had done all that just to pursue Rosalie and to see her smile.However, it seemed as though the Griffin heiress didn't think much of Stephen. "Hello, Mr. Beckard." Fergus rushed up to him and greeted him politely. "Mr. Beckard," Mabel said, smiling. Whitney was frowning slightly when it was her turn. Fergus hurriedly said, "Whitney, this is Mr. Stephen Beckard. He's the second son of the Beckards of Janover" "Hello, Mr. Bec

Samson glanced at Sebastian. He took a deep breath and said to Arnaud, "Thank you for sparing me, Uncle Arnaud."He gave Sebastian a few final reminders before leaving the hall with Preston.Once they were gone, Arnaud pointed at Duo and said to Sebastian, "Tell him to leave too."Sebastian waved a hand at Duo."I'll wait for you at the entrance, my lord," Duo said. "If anything happens, I'll be here as soon as you call!"He gave Arnaud a cold look before striding out of the hall.Arnaud watched him leave and smiled approvingly. He beckoned to Sebastian. "Come, sit!"Sebastian didn't hesitate. He crossed the hall and sat in the chair opposite Arnaud."Do you know why I asked Andreas to bring you back here?" Arnaud asked impassively. Sebastian shook his head expressionlessly. He said in a cold voice, "It's probably because of the emerald token in my father's possession."Apart from using him and Whitney as leverage against Samson, he couldn't think of any other reason.Arnau

"The Blessed Child! The Blessed Child has finally come to our family!"The black-robed old man who had been sitting beside Arnaud stood up, looking pleased. He couldn't hide his excitement as he turned to Arnaud and said, "Arnaud, our family is going to prosper!"Only Rexton and Milton looked extremely displeased. Braxton and Roland looked pained, as if they had lost something of great value. They were practically thumping their chests in regret!The Blessed Child had been foretold by one of the heads of the family centuries ago. No matter how far the Ballards declined, the prophecy said that after a few hundred years, a Blessed Child would appear—someone who could lead the family's revival!The only proof of the Blessed Child was for him to enter a master-servant oath with a Devora."Prosper? What a joke!" Hugo scoffed, holding Virtus firmly. "Weren't you all just clamoring about killing the two of them?"At Hugo's words, Arnaud's expression changed slightly. "When did I say tha

"Hugo!"Arnaud, who had been sitting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them wide. He eyed Hugo with a conflicted expression as he asked, "Have you forgotten the agreement the Thornes made with us ten years ago?"Hugo smiled coldly and put one hand behind his back. "That was the agreement you made with the Thornes. I'm only following Ms. Thorne's orders to protect Samson and find the emerald token. If Samson dies in this battle, how am I supposed to explain that to her?"He pointed at Sebastian and added, "He's Ms. Thorne's flesh and blood. Your family has no right to punish him! If the Ballards insist on killing them today, don't blame me for going on a killing spree!"When Hugo had finished, Sebastian finally realized that Hugo was from Isabella's family and that he had stayed at the Ballard Estate to protect Samson.It was clear that Isabella hadn't held a grudge toward Samson. In fact, she had sent an expert to stay behind to protect him in case anything happened.Arnaud's

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
