Sebastian raised his hand and removed the silver needles on Adrian.At that moment, Adrian suddenly felt like he was alive again. He was covered in sweat and remained unmoved.There were side effects from the extreme pain just now; he would feel like his body was splitting apart if he moved a single muscle."Adrian, how does it feel? Wanna try again?" Sebastian asked coldly.Adrian shook in fear when he heard that. He got up and knelt on the floor as he cried. "Mr. Ballard, please, no. It's too painful! I'll never offend you ever again."Sebastian chuckled coldly. "Only me?"Adrian was stunned before realization dawned on him. He quickly bowed to Whitney and said, "Ms. Sutton, I'm sorry. I'll never harass you ever again."Whitney was already shocked to her core at this point. She was in disbelief when she saw Adrian apologizing to her.This was Adrian Reece from Reece Corporation, and his status in Steinberg was nothing to scoff at!"Mr. Reece, you…" Whitney was shocked, and h
Whitney didn't finish her sentence before she glared at Sebastian and said, "Fine. Since you don't know how to be grateful, then so be it!"She then left and waited for a cab by the road.Sebastian chuckled helplessly. He then drove Dante's car and stopped in front of Whitney. "Need a ride?""Hmph! No need for that! I'll hail a cab myself!" Whitney answered.Sebastian nodded and then drove away.Whitney was furious when she saw the car driving further away, which meant Sebastian had no intention of turning back."Damn it! Sebastian, you jerk!" Whitney stomped her foot in anger.In the end, she took a cab back to the company.Edna and the company's higher-ups had received news from Reece Corporation that the cooperation would proceed as usual. They all sighed in relief."Great job, Winnie! I can rest assured when you take care of the company." Edna chuckled.Whitney replied, "Thanks for the compliment. If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."She then left the room before
Whitney also knew that with Shannon's temper, she wouldn't beg Sebastian.However, Sally had coughed out blood, and she was now unconscious. Even the experts in the hospital didn't know what to do after examining her."But Aunt Sally's condition has worsened. Aren't you worried about her?" Whitney asked.Shannon frowned. "I've contacted a friend to ask for help from a famous doctor. I don't need Sebastian. Me? Beg him? Dream on!""Famous doctor? Who?" Whitney asked in confusion.Shannon crossed her arms and raised her chin proudly. "Dr. Jay Sherlot from Uruxand! I heard that he's only in his 30s, and he's well-known globally. He has published many journals internationally and is a popular doctor in many medical institutions. There's nobody Jay can't cure in Uruxand."Whitney's face changed, as she had heard about Jay Sherlot before. He was indeed a famous doctor and had made significant contributions to the medical field. He was also more skilled in traditional medicine. It was
Sally looked at Jay and said, "Dr. Sherlot, thank you so much.""No problem." Jay smiled and began to put away his silver needles.However, Sally suddenly pressed her chest and let out a painful cry. "D-Dr. Sherlot, my chest hurts…"She coughed out blood and blacked out once again.f"Mom! Mom, wake up! Don't scare me!" Shannon was shocked and shook Sally's body. However, Sally showed no signs of waking up."Dr. Sherlot, what's going on? Why did my mom vomit blood and pass out again?" Shannon asked anxiously.Jay's expression changed dramatically, and his brow furrowed with confusion. "That's impossible. I just performed acupuncture on her. She should be fine now."He quickly began examining Sally again. Afterward, his face turned even more serious. He promptly took out his silver needles and started another round of acupuncture. Jay worked frantically for over ten minutes, but Sally showed no signs of waking up. Moreover, her complexion worsened and turned a disturbing shade o
Sebastian frowned and looked at the arrogant Shannon with displeasure."Is this how you ask for help?" he asked coldly."What do you mean? I'm already here to see you in person. Don't be so petty. Let's just go save my mom!" Shannon replied proudly. Sebastian chuckled. "Sorry, I've made myself clear that you need to kneel and beg me if you want my help.""Fuck! Sebastian, do you even hear yourself? Do you think you're so amazing that I have to kneel and beg you?" Shannon complained angrily.Whitney entered the store and pulled Shannon, glaring at her in the process. "Shannon, you'd better mind your manners," she warned. "You're asking for help now.""This is just how I am!" Shannon groaned.Whitney looked at Sebastian and asked helplessly, "Sebastian, can you treat Aunt Sally for my sake?""No," Sebastian rejected.Whitney didn't know what to do and could just look back at Shannon.Noticing her gaze, Shannon said, "Don't look at me. I won't kneel and beg. It's already nice e
"Oh yeah, you probably don't know me," Jay said. "I'm a genius doctor from Uruxand. I'm 35 this year, and I have a PhD. "I've published many journal articles and received many acknowledgments from many institutions. A local medical institution has also offered me an annual salary of five million."He looked at Sebastian arrogantly and mockingly asked, "I wonder what degree you hold, how many papers you've published, which medical institution you currently work for, and what your annual salary is?"Sebastian frowned at Jay's inquiry and retorted, "I don't hold any degrees, nor have I published papers, and I'm not affiliated with any medical institution. Does that satisfy your curiosity?"Jay's response was a contemptuous sneer. "So, you're just some country doctor? And yet, you dare to intervene in cases I've deemed hopeless?"Uninterested in Jay's arrogance, Sebastian moved forward to examine Sally's condition. With determination, he withdrew a set of silver needles and was ready
Sebastian flashed a slight grin before turning his gaze toward Sally, who lay unconscious on the hospital bed. With a quick flick of his wrist, he inserted silver needles into more than a dozen key acupuncture points on her body.Meanwhile, Jay was wearing an expression of disdain. He muttered, "What an ignorant punk, how dare he look down on me! Let's see what he's made of!"Jay seethed inwardly at Sebastian's audacity. Yet, as he observed Sebastian's acupuncture skills, his expression shifted dramatically. "Leofric Acupuncture?" he exclaimed inwardly, his disbelief evident. "How is he employing such a technique?"Jay questioned Sebastian's utilization of the legendary Leofric Acupuncture, and his eyes widened in shock. Doubt clouded his mind, but after scrutinizing several more needles, his astonishment only deepened.Indeed, Sebastian was executing the renowned Leofric Acupuncture. Jay was left dumbfounded, struggling to comprehend what he was witnessing.Then, as if stru
"What? Such an arrogant man exists? This is interesting." Triston chuckled mockingly, and his eyes were filled with disdain."Dr. Smolder, the most important thing is that he said the Leofric Acupuncture you taught me isn't accurate. He even used it in front of me and changed some of the needle positions." The more Jay spoke, the angrier he became.Triston's face darkened at his words. He replied angrily, "What? He tried to use Leofric Acupuncture and even changed a few needle positions?""Yes. Dr. Smolder, come here quickly," Jay said.Triston was so mad that he shouted, "Alright, I'll be there in no time. I'd like to meet this arrogant young man who dares to learn my family's technique. How dare he change something in it? Hmph!"After hanging up, Triston got into the car and told the driver, "Go to Tranquil Hospital. I'd like to meet that arrogant young man!"Meanwhile, in the ward, Sally woke up. Shannon grabbed her arms and cried. "Mom, are you okay?"Sally answered weakly
