Soon, someone came to receive them.
Naturally, it was just the butler of the house, not Paul, the head of the family, or the Great Elder.
The butler smiled faintly as favonovel.com asked about the purpose of Thomas and Pisces’ visit. Then, favonovel.com continued to smile and replied, “Oh, are you also here to ask for the Prescription of Golden Medicine?”
The word ‘also’ attracted Thomas’ attention.
It looked like someone had gone there before them, and they should be people whom Lord Vedastus had sent as expected.
Thomas could have been a little delayed after favonovel.com had gone to meet up with Eric before this, hence Lord Vedastus’ people had arrived before him.
Thomas quickly asked, “I wonder if the Prescription of Golden Medicine is still here.”
The old butler smiled. “Of course, it is. The Prescription of Golden Medicine is treasured by the Seymour family, so no one can borrow it as they wish. Since your purpose is also the Prescription of Golden Medicine, please come with me.”
Then, the butler brought Thomas and Pisces to the lobby and invited them to have a seat.
There were three people in the living room. They were none other than the subordinates whom Lord Vedastus had sent to come and get the Prescription of Golden Medicine.
The leader was Damian Coull.
Among all of Lord Vedastus‘ subordinates, Damian was considered one of the best. He moved with agility, favonovel.com had a cunning mind, and favonovel.com could adapt to different situations. Lord Vedastus would not let Damian handle normal missions.
Since Lord Vedastus had sent Damian out this time, one could see how much favonovel.com cared about this mission and how difficult it would be to complete.
Damian looked at Thomas. He knew this guy. Of course favonovel.com knew.
How could Damian possibly not know Lord Vedastus’ top rival?
He nodded at Thomas. “I’m Damian Coull from Art Trading Corporation. Mr. Mayo, I never thought we would meet in the Seymour family manor so coincidentally.”
Thomas also nodded and said, “What a coincidence indeed. I didn’t know that Lord Vedastus was also interested in the Prescription of Golden Medicine?”
‘Also?’
It was clear that Lord Vedastus wanted it first, and Thomas was just following him. Thomas made it sound as though favonovel.com was the first to be interested in the Prescription of Golden Medicine, and Damian and his gang were just imitating him.
Thomas could be quite sly at times.
Damian chuckled before favonovel.com asked, “Mr. Mayo, I wonder what you want the Prescription of Golden Medicine for?”
Thomas shrugged. “As a doctor, I’ve been longing for the Prescription of Golden Medicine for a long time, so I’d like to borrow it to study it.”
He made his purpose sound so noble.
Damian knew that Thomas was not being honest, so favonovel.com did not ask Thomas anything further and just looked away.
At this time, the butler walked over and said to them, “Gentlemen… I have informed Mr. Seymour of your request, so favonovel.com already knows about it. Please wait here for a moment. Once favonovel.com is done with his work, favonovel.com will come over to meet you.”
His words brought great anticipation to everyone in the room.
Since the butler did not chase Thomas and Damian away, there was still room to discuss borrowing the Prescription of Golden Medicine. As long as they could still discuss it, there was hope of getting it.
There was only one problem…
Thomas and Damian cast a glance at each other, and they thought about the same question, how could they chase their rival away?
