Chapter 189

Author: Wendell Mayhew
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

    "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

    Stephen turned and slapped Fergus. He reprimanded him coldly, "You ass! Who're you calling a bitch? Do you want to die? Do you know who she is?"Fergus was dazed. He held his red and swollen cheek and asked tremulously, "Why did you hit me, Mr. Beckard? She's just a vixen! Who else could she be?"Stephen kicked Fergus to the floor and yelled, "You imbecile! She's the heiress of the Griffins, Ms. Rosalie Griffin!"His words seemed to explode in Fergus' ears. He paled at once and began shaking from head to toe. He stared in disbelief at Rosalie, who was still talking and laughing with Sebastian on the other side of the hall. She was the heiress of the Griffins…"Mr. Beckard, you're joking. How could she be the heiress of the Griffins?" Fergus was panicking.He didn't want to believe that someone as important as Rosalie would be mingling with someone as useless as Sebastian. Stephen huffed coldly. "Do you think that I'm joking?" he asked angrily. Then he walked over to Sebast

    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
