Chapter 3

Whitney had just gotten out of the car when she heard what the young woman said to Sebastian. Her expression soured.

Be it looks or physique, the gorgeous young woman was just as attractive as Whitney—and she drove a Ferrari.

Whitney's chest tightened.

When had Sebastian become acquainted with a woman like her?

The young woman looked to be in her early 20s, which made her about five or six years younger than Whitney.

Whitney immediately felt jealous.

Mabel had gotten out of the car too. The sight before her made her frown.

"I'm sorry, but who are you?" Sebastian asked as he studied the young woman in front of him.

She was a young and beautiful woman. Still, he had no idea who she was.

"Mr. Chester Sinclair recommended you to me, Dr. Ballard. My name is Rosalie Griffin. He said that you have the Goldcrow pill. It is the only thing that can save my grandfather.

"My family, the Griffins, are willing to buy it from you for ten million dollars!" Rosalie pleaded tearfully.

"Chester Sinclair?" Sebastian murmured.

Chester Sinclair was the president of the Steinberg Chamber of Commerce. Two years ago, Sebastian had treated Chester, and that was how they'd met.

It was with Chester's help that Frostwave Corporation managed to achieve its present success. If Rosalie's family was acquainted with him, it meant that they were no ordinary people.

After a brief silence, Sebastian nodded and said, "Alright, but first, I'll need to check on your grandfather's condition."

He did owe Chester a favor, so he had to help Rosalie.

"Thank you, Dr. Ballard," Rosalie said as she wiped away her tears.

The two were about to get into Rosalie's car when Mabel came forward with a snort.

She called out to Rosalie, "What did you just say, miss? You want to spend ten million dollars on buying his Goldcrow pill? Are you sure?

"He's just a useless loser. Are you certain you want to buy medicine from him? Aren't you afraid it'll kill whoever's eating it?"

Turning to Sebastian, Mabel continued, "My, my, Sebastian. How did you manage to trick this young woman? What's this Goldcrow pill anyway?

"Is it one of those unapproved concoctions you made in your shop? Aren't you afraid of killing someone with it and going to jail?"

"Does it have anything to do with you?" Sebastian retorted.

Mabel turned red. She had no response to that.

Rosalie frowned and sneered, "You're the first person to call the Goldcrow pill an unapproved concoction. How ignorant!"

"Why, you!" Mabel stomped her foot in anger. She could not believe someone had just called her ignorant.

Frowning, Whitney spoke up, "Forget it, Mabel."

By now, Sebastian had already reached the front passenger side of Rosalie's Ferrari. He paused and said, "I was planning on giving you the formula for the Goldcrow pill as a gift for our third wedding anniversary, Ms. Sutton. What a shame. I've now realized how foolish I was about our relationship."

Once he finished speaking, he got into the car.

The Ferrari shot off, leaving Whitney and Mabel standing on the side of the road with puzzled expressions.

Whitney frowned. She did not understand what Sebastian meant by wanting to give her the formula.

On the other hand, Mabel scoffed in disdain. "You saw it with your own eyes, Ms. Sutton. That's how men behave! You've only just divorced him, but he has already hooked up with another young woman. By the looks of it, it's not his first time. Maybe he's been cheating on you the whole time.

"You made the right decision by divorcing a bastard like him! He's not good enough for you!"

It was hard to read Whitney's gaze. She exhaled and said, "I don't think Sebastian would do such a thing …"

"Why not? You saw it just now, Ms. Sutton. Why can't you believe it?" Mabel said in agitation.

She thought that Whitney had been blinded by her feelings for Sebastian. Only by seeing the truth for herself would she understand that Sebastian was nothing but a bastard and a worthless loser!

If Whitney stayed with him, it would only be holding both her and Frostwave Corporation back.

Still frowning, Whitney said, "Drop it. We've gotten a divorce. I won't interfere with his private life. He can do whatever he wants. It has nothing to do with me.

"Mabel, what we need to focus on right now is the Griffin family's medical conference. As long as we enter the top three and receive the chance to work with the Griffins, Frostwave Corporation will soar to greater heights."

Once she finished speaking, she got back into her car with a resolute air.

Mabel stomped her foot and glared down the road where the Ferrari was long gone.

Then, she got into the car and asked, "Ms. Sutton, what are your thoughts on the Goldcrow pill that young woman mentioned?"

"It's probably some silly thing Sebastian came up with in his spare time. Don't bother taking it seriously," Whitney snorted.
