Chapter 440

Author: Wendell Mayhew
Lorraine burst into the room and flung herself into Lucas' arms, her voice filled with distress. "Lucas, you must avenge me this time. Catch that scoundrel, and let me torment him thoroughly!"

Lucas looked at Lorraine, nodding firmly as he said, "Alright! I promise you, I'll capture that brat and let you have your revenge."

Lorraine was pleased with his words.

"How are your injuries?" Lucas asked.

"They're mostly healed, thanks to Richard from the Hundred Heaven Sect. He gave me a healing pill that sped up my recovery," Lorraine replied.

Lucas nodded just as Richard entered the room, exuding an air of wisdom and serenity. He bowed to Lucas. "Greetings, General Carlton."

Lucas returned the gesture. "No need for such formality, Mr. Jett. You're a great benefactor to our family. Without you, Lorraine's recovery wouldn't have been so swift."

Richard chuckled and said, "General Carlton, you jest. With the relationship between the Hundred Heaven Sect and your family, it was but a sm

    Before anyone inside Frostwave Corporation could grasp the situation, Lucas arrived swiftly outside the company building. Two or three dozen elite soldiers accompanied him. The arrival of the military jeeps caused an immediate stir amongst the company's employees. Why would military vehicles be parked outside the building?Without waiting for the staff's reaction, Lucas swung open the car door. With a flick of his cloak, he commanded, "Seal off Frostwave Corporation, now!""Yes, sir!"The two or three dozen soldiers charged into Frostwave Corporation, swiftly sealing off the building. Every entrance and exit was manned by fully armed soldiers with live ammunition, and no one was allowed in or out.In less than a minute, Frostwave Corporation's executives and shareholders were all detained by several soldiers in the meeting room. At that moment, Lucas stood with his back turned to the executives kneeling on the floor. His gaze was cold and indifferent as he looked through th

    Mabel was so afraid that she stuttered. "Where's Whitney Sutton?" Lucas asked coldly.Mabel was terrified, and her face paled as she replied, "I-I don't know…""Hmm?" Lucas' gaze sharpened. Mabel quickly amended her response, "I-I know, I know! Ms. Sutton should have gone to see Sebastian to discuss the matter with her cousin. Looking at the time, she should be returning to the company soon…"Before she could finish, a figure with a graceful silhouette entered through the door—it was Whitney.When she was downstairs, she noticed the soldiers standing at the entrance. After identifying herself as the CEO of the company, Whitney was allowed inside."I'm Whitney," she declared as she stepped into the room. Whitney cast a glance at the executives kneeling on the floor before turning her gaze to Lucas. She forced herself to appear composed and asked, "I wonder what brings you to our company so unexpectedly? Is there something important you wish to discuss?"Whitney tried to ma

    At Lucas' command, two soldiers quickly stepped forward and escorted Whitney out of the conference room. They took her to a jeep and drove away from Frostwave Corporation. The company's top executives and shareholders stood at the door, visibly shaken. It wasn't until the dozen or so military jeeps had been gone for a while that they dared to wipe the cold sweat from their foreheads and speak. "It's over. It's all over for Ms. Sutton now…" "We've offended the Sunway Carlton family. What's going to happen to the company?" "Quick! Call an emergency meeting!"The group of executives and shareholders hurried back to the conference room for an emergency meeting. Realizing the gravity of the situation, Mabel quickly dialed Sebastian's number.Sebastian was in the convenience store, handling some emerald stones. He was going to refine them into safety stones. Suddenly, his phone rang. Reluctantly, he answered after the persistent ringing. As soon as he did, Mabel's furious

    "Enough, I'm not here to chat. I need you to do something for me," Sebastian said coldly.Draco, clearly annoyed, retorted. "Hey, Sebastian, watch your tone. Call me Commander Kolt! And if you're calling to ask for a favor, shouldn't you start with some pleasantries? Is this how you ask for help?"At that moment, inside the Department of Defense building, in a spacious and brightly lit office, a young man in his mid-twenties sat relaxed in a chair with his legs crossed. He was dressed in a dark green military uniform with a dragon head emblem proudly displayed on his shoulder. His sharp eyes added to his imposing demeanor.Beside him stood two lieutenants, each with three gold stars on their shoulders, standing silently. However, their gazes toward Draco were filled with admiration and envy.After all, the man casually lounging in the chair was one of the newly appointed top five commanders of the Dramon Department of Defense, known as Commander Draco!At just 26 years old, he c

    After Sebastian ended the call, he immediately drove toward the Sunway Carlton family estate.Meanwhile, chaos erupted at the Sutton family home. "What? Winnie was taken?" Crystal nearly fainted upon hearing the news.The day after tomorrow was her daughter's wedding to Fergus, a momentous occasion, and now this catastrophe had struck.Tears streaked Mabel's face as she cried, "You all need to think of something to save Ms. Sutton! It was General Lucas Carlton from the Carlton family who took her.""What? General Lucas Carlton from the Sunway Carlton family?" Edna exclaimed, her eyes widening in shock as she stood abruptly from her chair. Then, as the gravity of the situation sank in, she collapsed into the chair, a look of despair spreading across her face. "It's over. The Sutton family is finished… With that general from the Carlton family involved, do we even stand a chance?"Crystal's face turned pale with fear as she cursed, "It's all that damn Sebastian's fault!

    Lorraine had been waiting for this day for so long!When she thought about how she was tortured because of Whitney, she wanted so badly to skin her and Sebastian alive!Whitney turned toward Lorraine, her eyes brimming with cold defiance. She spat out the blood in her mouth and looked at Lorraine, giving a cold laugh. "Ms. Carlton, do as you please; kill or mutilate me then."Lorraine was intensely irked by Whitney's fearless demeanor.With a sneer, she crossed her arms and circled Whitney twice. Then, bending down to meet Whitney's gaze, she sneered menacingly. "Whitney, do you think I'd let you off so easily by letting you die?"Touching Whitney's cheek, Lorraine smirked. "Oh, the wounds on your face have healed quite quickly. What medicine did you use?"Noticing that Whitney's facial wounds had almost completely healed, leaving no scars, and thinking of her grotesque scars, Lorraine felt a surge of bitterness."I won't tell you!" Whitney retorted stubbornly.Lorraine slapped

    In the living room of the Carlton Manor, Lorraine walked out with an unhappy expression and asked, "Lucas, where is Sebastian?"Lucas took a sip of tea and said, "No worries. I have already put words out. If he still cares about his ex-wife, he'll apologize soon.""Really? That's great! I'll skin him alive then!" Lorraine said through gritted teeth, and her eyes were filled with hatred.If it wasn't for Sebastian, she wouldn't have suffered so much pain! Every time she recalled the things she had gone through, she would get so furious.As the lady of the Carlton family, she had always been loved and spoiled by her family. Nobody had ever treated her this way since she was young, and this remained for over 40 years!However, a stupid brat treated her so badly! Hence, she would avenge herself no matter what!"Where's that woman?" Lucas asked.Lorraine sat down and said, "I put her in the cabin with ten men having fun with her. I even asked them to record everything to release it t

    Lucas let out a cold laugh before speaking, "Quite the audacity to show up alone at Carlton Manor. Saves me the trouble of hunting you down myself."Sebastian, uninterested in Lucas' words, cut straight to the point. "Where's Whitney?"Stepping forward with arms crossed, Lorraine grinned with a mix of triumph and malice. "Your ex-wife, right? Well, I've got ten men keeping her company. Bet she's having a blast."Sebastian's expression shifted dramatically at her words, his energy bursting forth with intensity."What did you just say?" Sebastian's voice boomed with anger.Lorraine shot back, "Can't wrap your head around it? Let me spell it out for you! I've got ten guys hanging out with your ex-wife, probably having a wild time. "And guess what? I've gone the extra mile and hired a top-notch director to film it all, turning it into a blockbuster shown all over Steinberg. Everyone's gonna see just how wild your ex-wife can get!" Her laughter echoed with madness."How dare you!" 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

    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
