The Amazing Doctor Chapter 23
Everyone inside the hall fixed their eyes on Nathan. They wanted to see his reaction after eating the Goldcrow pill.Isabel also crouched down and asked in concern, "How do you feel, Grandpa?"Nathan smiled faintly and said, "I think it worked. My body feels a lot lighter, and my chest feels less stuffy. The persistent pain is gone too, and my mind feels clearer. The Goldcrow pill is indeed effective."As soon as he said that, all the guests became agitated!The Goldcrow pill was a miracle cure!Now that even Nathan had voiced his support for it, the pill would certainly have a huge impact on Steinberg's pharmaceutical industry!After hearing Nathan's words, Whitney's heart settled back in place. She exhaled in relief.Thanks to this event, the Goldcrow pill had made its mark!Whitney was starting to imagine what it would be like when Frostwave Corporation became the top pharmaceutical industry in Steinberg.Mabel was also thrilled. Her eyes were filled with pride."We did it

Mabel hastily helped Whitney up from the floor as she cried out, "W-What should we do now Ms. Sutton? If something happens to Mr. Whitaker Senior, we're done for! It'll all be over for us …"Someone from the crowd cried out, "Sebastian was right …"Sebastian?Upon hearing his name, Whitney froze and stared out the entrance."Ms. Sutton, I'm sure Sebastian's behind this! He's the one who gave me the formula. He did it on purpose. He wants to harm you and the entire Frostwave Corporation!" Mabel declared in fury. After realizing the situation, she quickly shoved all the blame onto Sebastian without mentioning all of his repeated warnings."Is it really him?" Whitney said hesitantly.Based on her understanding of him, she thought that even though they were divorced, he would not do this to hurt her.She believed that even though he had become something of a loser in the last two years, he was still a decent person."Ms. Sutton, how can you still trust that bastard at a time like t
The Amazing Doctor Chapter 25
Whitney froze briefly before letting out a bitter laugh and saying, "So, this is what you're truly after, isn't it?"Sebastian frowned and asked, "What do you mean by that?""Hah. Now that things have come to this, why bother pretending? Didn't you plan all this just to humiliate me in front of all those influential people? Wasn't it just so that I would beg you for help and satisfy your disgusting selfishness?"Whitney continued to laugh bitterly as she wiped her tears away.She could not figure out why the man she had been with for three years would treat her like this.Sebastian could not stop himself from raising his brows.So, this was how she thought of him.Everything he had done for her the last three years—all of his efforts and contributions—had been for nothing!"Is that what you think of me?" Sebastian asked as he stared at Whitney with a serious gaze.Whitney did not reply, but her icy expression conveyed her answer.Sebastian snorted self-deprecatingly and shook

Isabel's expression turned grim as she frowned.Sebastian swiftly declared, "If Mr. Whitaker Senior doesn't wake up in five minutes, I'll take full responsibility for everything!""Alright! You said so yourself. This has nothing to do with Whitney," Fergus proclaimed as he sneered to himself."It has nothing to do with her," Sebastian said coldly.Whitney and Mabel just so happened to come in at this time, and when Whitney heard what Sebastian said, her expression changed.Fergus quickly clambered over to Whitney and said eagerly, "You heard him, Whitney. Sebastian's taking full responsibility for the situation. If anything happens to Mr. Whitaker Senior, it won't have anything to do with you. You don't have to worry anymore.""Thank you so much, Mr. Cobb," Mabel said quietly.Everything would be fine if the situation had nothing to do with Whitney and Frostwave Corporation.It was just as well that the bastard Sebastian took all the responsibility for what happened!However,

Nathan immediately opened his eyes. His body felt completely relaxed, and the tightness in his chest was gone. There was also a warm sensation throughout his body."I'm fine," Nathan assured her with a smile.Isabel wiped her tears away and exhaled in relief. Then, she quickly turned to Sebastian and said, "Thank you so much, Dr. Ballard."Sebastian smiled faintly and said, "It's nothing."All the guests were flabbergasted.They did not expect Sebastian to be a medical expert.Standing among the crowd, Fergus had an unpleasant expression. The words he said earlier were still ringing in his ears. It was now a slap in his face."Thank you so much, Dr. Ballard. I will never forget this. If you ever need anything, feel free to get in touch with me or Izzy." Nathan thanked Sebastian with a nod.Sebastian returned to gesture and said, "You're too kind, Mr. Whitaker Senior. On account of your great contributions to the country and your efforts to protect the safety of all citizens, I

"What are you implying?" Sebastian asked with a darkened expression.Fergus sneered and said darkly, "What am I implying? Why is the Goldcrow pill only effective when combined with your acupuncture technique? Why is it poisonous otherwise? Who do you think would believe your words?"In an instant, the crowd started murmuring among themselves.Meanwhile, Whitney was uncomfortable to see Sebastian defending Rosalie.In the past, he only belonged to her.Noticing the muttering crowd, Fergus gained more confidence. He tugged on his suit jacket before scoffing. "What's the matter, Sebastian? Aren't you going to explain yourself to everyone?""Why should I explain myself?" Sebastian asked indifferently."Haha! I'm guessing you can't think of an explanation, huh?"Fergus chuckled before shouting to Nathan, "Mr. Whitaker Senior, I think this punk set the whole thing up! He did it on purpose just to get close to you and earn your gratitude!"Before Nathan could say anything, Isabel wal
The Amazing Doctor Chapter 29
In an instant, the hall went silent.Whitney's expression was extremely unpleasant.She did not expect Sebastian to be this staunch and merciless.Even though she was pleading with him, he refused to back down.He was not like that in the past.Did the divorce change him?"Must you be so heartless, Sebastian?" Whitney asked.Sebastian snorted before retorting with a piercing gaze, "Let me ask you this, Ms. Sutton. If I had failed to save Mr. Whitaker Senior today, and Fergus seized the chance to ruin me, would you be pleading for mercy on my behalf too?""I …" Whitney could not answer. Her eyes flickered.Sebastian laughed mockingly before saying, "Don't bother answering. Your hesitation tells me everything I need to know. So, why should I let Fergus off the hook?"Frowning, Whitney had more to say, but Sebastian walked up to Fergus and looked down at him. Then, he raised his feet and said coldly, "My shoe's dirty, Mr. Cobb. Please lick it clean for me."Fergus was seething

"Think whatever you want. My conscience is clear!" Sebastian declared icily.He was truly disheartened that Whitney had become someone who could not distinguish right from wrong."You're only saying that because you can't think of a way to defend yourself anymore!" Whitney fumed before running after Fergus.Mabel glowered at Sebastian before following Whitney.Sebastian took a deep breath to calm himself down."Are you okay, Dr. Ballard?" Rosalie asked worriedly.Sebastian nodded and said, "I'm fine. Join me for a walk.""Sure," Rosalie agreed with a playful smile.After saying a few words to Isabel and the others, Sebastian walked out of the hall and headed to the garden.The atmosphere in the hall made him feel stifled and annoyed.…Meanwhile, Whitney went after Fergus and called out, "I'm so sorry, Mr. Cobb. Let me apologize on Sebastian's behalf. I didn't expect him to be so unreasonable today."Fergus exhaled and said resentfully, "It has nothing to do with you, Ms. S

"It all comes back to Uncle Samson," Andreas said. "Great Uncle Arnaud already told you he'd let Uncle Samson have his freedom if you find the other emerald token, but then he brought up the marriage alliance. "It directly affects whether or not Uncle Samson can regain his freedom. So, why don't you think about it?"With a quiet chuckle, Andreas walked toward a grove of peach trees to the west.Realization finally dawned on Sebastian. Arnaud was a shrewd man. He wouldn't slip up like that. Besides, although the Ballards and the Yeomans had established a marriage agreement, they hadn't named specific individuals, only that the Blessed Child of the Ballards would fulfill it.The Blessed Child bore the duty of guiding the Ballards to revival. In other words, the emerald token would be better off falling into the Blessed Child's hands rather than anyone else's.Could it be that the final emerald token was with the Yeomans? If that were true, why hadn't the Ballards used their pow

"I'm sorry, but I have no interest in becoming the head of the Ballard family," Sebastian said impassively. "I only want my father to be freed."Arnaud's expression changed slightly, but his tone remained neutral as he said, "It's Braxton who owes you and your mother, not the entire family. Why must you do this?"Sebastian let out a cold snort. It was true that Braxton had been the one who had kicked them out, but weren't the true culprits the elders of the Ballard Estate?"If there's nothing else, I'd like to see Whitney," Sebastian said, rising slowly to his feet. As soon as he mentioned her name, Arnaud waved a hand at him and said, "Don't be in such a rush, Sebastian. Whitney is safe. The Ballards would never harm a frail woman."He added, "However, there's something I want to ask you. Is Whitney still your wife?"Sebastian frowned. "Whether she is or isn't, what business is that of the Ballards?""Of course it is," Arnaud replied firmly. "The Ballards and the Yeomans of

Arnaud led Sebastian into a secret room deep within the Hall of the Ancestral Dragon. Once inside, Sebastian saw a Cosmic Orbit Diagram. It was exactly the same as the records in the Sacred Medicine Secret Annals.However, the Ballards' Cosmic Orbit Diagram was divided into different sections. It looked even more three-dimensional."This is the Cosmic Orbit Diagram passed down through our family for generations," Arnaud said proudly. "The one that the Sacred Medicine Society has is just a copy."The legacy of the mystic arts in Dramon almost all came from the Ballards.The Ballards had withheld some things back then as well. As a result, all the legacies of the various secular sects only had incomplete Cosmic Orbit Diagrams. It was why there were very few experts at the fifth level of the Eldoria realm and above.Afterward, Arnaud led Sebastian into a library. Thousands of technical legacies lined the shelves. Sebastian flipped through them. The techniques recorded there were

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
