Chapter 959

Author: Wendell Mayhew
However, Ryan only wanted the anti-cancer prescription and the shares in Arctic Snow Group. He didn't care about whether Sebastian lived or died.

"Mr. Jones, I didn't hear you wrongly, did I? Do you really have the power to get me released with no charges? I don't think that even your father would be able to say such a thing!"

Sebastian's ruthless retort made Ryan's smile freeze. His lips twitched violently.

"How was it, Mr. Jones? What did he say?" Trevor looked nervously at Ryan.

"Ballard, don't be so cocky! If you agree to my requests now, you may still have a chance of surviving! If you won't cooperate, I'll still be able to find a way to get the prescription. You, on the other end, will find yourself in a worse situation," Ryan said through gritted teeth.

Sebastian was looking down on Ryan! No one had ever gone against Ryan in his entire life! Who did Sebastian think he was?

Ryan had only manipulated a few things and already had Sebastian backed into a corner.

    Blake rushed back to Ventus Estate. When Belinda saw that he had returned alone, she frowned and asked, "Why isn't Mr. Ballard with you?"Blake wiped away the sweat on his brow and said, "Madam Dragon, I made an appointment with Mr. Ballard yesterday and said that I would be there at 2:00 pm to pick him up. However, when I got there, Mr. Ballard's convenience store was closed down.""What?" Belinda's expression changed slightly. She was sure that she had not judged Sebastian wrongly. He wasn't the type of person who wouldn't keep his promises. Had something happened to him?"Madam Dragon, I've asked around, and I heard that Larys and Vince have been put in isolation for interrogation. We can't get to them at all right now.""Mr. Ballard has been taken away by the Steinberg Alpha Strike Force team. As for the reason, please forgive me, I couldn't find out at all. "However, I think that the detainment of Larys and Vince and the sudden interrogation of the two of them must have some

    "I must see Sebastian today!" Belinda didn't want to give Clifford any room to maneuver.Clifford pondered Belinda's words and thought about it three times. Wouldn't it be a simple matter for her to see Sebastian?With her status, who would stop her? Who would have the courage to stop her?Clifford immediately understood Belinda's intentions. He said quickly, "I'll get Hugh to rush to Steinberg right now to meet you. I'll be sure to find out everything regarding the incident with Sebastian as well."Belinda hung up abruptly.Clifford put his phone down and exhaled deeply. He quickly instructed his secretary to call an emergency meeting.Hugh had just walked into the conference room when Clifford pointed at him and said, "Hugh, you don't need to attend the meeting today. Go to Steinberg at once, and take this with you. Read it carefully while you're on your way."Clifford gave Hugh an envelope. Hugh took it, turned, and left the conference room thoughtfully."What is going on wi

    Meanwhile, Trevor and Ryan had reached Steinberg. Ryan still couldn't get over getting scolded by Sebastian on the phone. Since they were at Steinberg, they decided to visit Steinberg's Alpha Strike Force team. Therefore, they instructed the driver, "Go to the Alpha Strike Force team base! I must make Ballard kneel and grovel to me in apology!"…Sebastian was selectively answering the questions of the two staff members who had come from the state department when the door to the interrogation room opened, and Ryan walked in with Trevor following close behind him."Mr. Jones?" The staff from the state capital's Alpha Strike Force team immediately recognized Ryan. They got up quickly and bowed as they invited Ryan to take a seat."So, he's Sebastian?" Ryan asked after he had sat down. He stared coldly at him."That's right! He stole both these things!" Shawn said, pointing at the items on the table.Ryan looked triumphantly at Sebastian and said, "Ballard, do you remember how coc

    At the sound of the woman's voice, the door to the interrogation room opened once more.Cyril had been standing at the side of the room and cursing inwardly. They were treating the interrogation room like a market where they could come and go as they pleased."Oh, Dad, when did you get yourself such a young girlfriend? She's pretty good-looking." Ryan's eyes gleamed as he leered at the middle-aged woman standing behind Hugh.Hugh almost wet his pants with fright. Belinda was the woman who had followed him in.They had arrived right after Ryan entered the interrogation room, but Belinda had gestured for Hugh to stop so that they could listen at the door for a while. With every word that Belinda heard Ryan say, her eyes became progressively colder. When Shawn took out the taser, Belinda finally spoke up in a loud voice to stop him. At the same time, she opened the door of the interrogation room and walked in."Shut up, you disobedient thing!" Hugh's eyes were bulging out of their

    "Dad! Have mercy! Stop hitting me and electrocuting me! I was wrong, alright? Why are you beating me up?" Ryan stared at Hugh in fear. "You idiot! Who gave you permission to get up to all this nonsense?" Hugh had a black eye, and he glared ferociously at Ryan.Hugh would rather beat his ungrateful son to death than let him be the cause of the entire Jones family's downfall."Hugh, you can stop acting now," Belinda said coldly.Hugh shuddered in fear. He immediately turned and said to Belinda, "Madam Dragon, please hear me out. I really didn't order him to do these things."Belinda looked coldly into Hugh's eyes. All she saw in them was guilt and cowardice. "Really? How do you explain this, then?" Belinda asked icily as she raised a slender finger and pointed it at Sebastian, who had been strapped into the interrogation chair. Hugh hurriedly explained, "Madam Dragon, you heard everything just now. Sebastian stole cultural relics. This is a severe crime."As he spoke, Hugh loo

    Blake assented and walked over quickly to Shawn. "Sorry, man."He punched Shawn in the ribs. There was a cracking sound, and two of Shawn's ribs snapped. "How dare you hit me!" Shawn was finding it hard to endure the pain. He clutched his stomach and crouched down, but it wasn't over yet.Blake laughed coldly and pressed on Shawn's shoulder with one hand. He exerted force through his palm, and with another sharp snap, Shawn's shoulder blade broke as well."Aargh! Hey, mister! Mister! I… I'm part of the state capital's Alpha Strike Force team! A-aren't you afraid that the Alpha Strike Force team will look into this?" Shawn immediately pulled out his ID badge. He could no longer lift his other arm."Yes, I know that you're part of the Alpha Strike Force team." Blake nodded heavily and kicked Shawn's kneecap. There was another snap, and Shawn fell to his knees.His right kneecap had been shattered by Blake, and he could only kneel as he looked at Blake in terror.Shawn didn't unde

    Ryan was the heir of the Jones family! How could he kneel to a loser like Sebastian?"I told you to kneel, damn it!" Hugh had just raised his fist when Blake grabbed his wrist."Mr. Jones, Mr. Ballard is an esteemed guest of Madam Dragon. If you disrespect him, you're disrespecting Madam Dragon. Therefore, let me do it!"Ryan jumped in fright and scurried off to a corner of the room. He stared nervously at Blake and said, "What are you going to do? Assault is against the law!"He wished he had supernatural powers. It didn't have to be anything great. He just had to be able to go through the cement wall behind him.However, he had no such power, and Blake was grinning as he walked toward him. He grabbed Ryan by the collar and dragged him over to Sebastian as if he was a dead dog. Blake kicked him in the calf, and with a snap, his bone broke. Before Ryan could yell in pain, Blake smiled and said, "You'd better not scream, Mr. Jones. Otherwise, your shoulder will break too. You kno

    The Beckards?Belinda looked frostily at Trevor and Ryan. She was almost certain that the two of them were just pawns of the Beckards!Perhaps they saw the Beckards as a formidable ally, but the Beckards were nothing to Belinda. Since the Beckards were behind all this, it was time to teach them a lesson!Belinda waved at Blake and handed her phone to him.Blake's jaw dropped. What did Belinda mean by that?Were they really going to call the Beckards? Was Belinda really willing to start a feud with the Beckards for Sebastian's sake? The Beckards were one of the Eight Great Families of Janover! This was very out of character for Belinda!However, at this point, Blake didn't dare to say anything further. He had no choice but to take Belinda's phone with conflicted feelings. He walked over to Sebastian, looking troubled. "Sebastian, t-tell the head of the Beckard family what you just said!" Blake found Clayton's number in the phone's contacts and made the call."Hello, Madam Dra

    Whitney perked up at Sebastian's question. "It's all because you ran into the two monsters that day," she said. "I saw it on the surveillance footage. That was when I realized that the two women living in the store don't have that kind of relationship with you…"Whitney had never asked, and Sebastian hadn't bothered to explain who Nina and Lyanna were. That was why she had mistakenly thought that both of them were Sebastian's lovers as well.Realization had only dawned on her when she heard Nina address Sebastian as her master, even in her dying breath. Whitney had seen how powerful Nina was that day and how she had been willing to die in order to protect Sebastian.Nina and Lyanna weren't Sebastian's lovers. They were his servants. Not only that, Nina was a thousand-year-old giant snake!That had completely changed Whitney's view of the world. Although there had always been legends of mystical beings and ghosts, Whitney was an accomplished businesswoman who believed firmly in sc

    Sebastian laughed wryly and shook his head. "I'm not from the Ballard Estate," he said. "My name is Sebastian, and it's better if my cousin weren't seen around me too much.""Oh, you're Sebastian."The two young women breathed a long sigh of relief. They looked him up and down for a long time before exchanging a glance. Then, they covered their faces and giggled.One of them stepped forward and said, "Come with me. Honestly… you seem pretty normal. I don't get why Ms. Sutton is yearning for you so much."Sebastian cleared his throat awkwardly and said nothing.The young woman led Sebastian into the house, where Whitney was sitting and reading a book intently. She said, "Ms. Sutton, look who's here."Whitney put down her book and looked up. When she saw Sebastian behind the young woman, she was both surprised and delighted. She got up and threw herself into Sebastian's arms."Sebastian, is it really you?"The young woman covered her face and chuckled before leaving the room sile

    Sebastian watched Andreas leave and exhaled deeply. Preston wasn't the only one he didn't trust. No one in the Ballard Estate was worthy of his trust, including Andreas.Once Andreas had completely disappeared, Sebastian beckoned to the woods in the distance and said, "Come out!"In a flash, Duo appeared at his side. "My lord, why didn't you wipe out those people in the hall today?" he asked.Duo clenched his fists tightly, and there was a murderous look simmering in his eyes. Although he hadn't been in the hall, he had clearly heard everything the Ballards had said.Anyone who disrespected his master deserved death!Besides, neither Sebastian nor Duo would have had to lift a finger to kill them. All they had to do was to crush the Tribulation Avoidance Charm and trigger the divine tribulation. Once it descended, no one in the hall would have lived to tell the tale, including Arnaud."If we become hostile with the Ballards, it'll be almost impossible for us to leave in peace. Now

    "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
