The two of them were the Seymour family’s guests. If they made a fuss in the house, it would be inappropriate.
So, both of them did not do anything for the time being. They just stared at each other as they thought of unique tactics to chase their rival away once they met the Seymour family.
While they were brainstorming, a middle-age man walked into the living room. It was none other than Paul, the current head of the Seymour family!
Thomas and Damian stood up and nodded at Paul.
Paul nodded back. “Please, have a seat.”
He sat in the main seat and said, “I’ve already heard from my butler about the purpose of your visit. You’d like to borrow the Seymour family’s Prescription of Golden Medicine?”
“Yes!” Damian was the first to answer. “Mr. Seymour, if you’re willing to lend me the Prescription of Golden Medicine, Art Trading Corporation is willing to pay no matter how much it costs. I can guarantee you that we’ll pay at least $100,000,000 right now!”
They were generous, because they were willing to pay $100,000,000 just to borrow the Prescription of Golden Medicine. However, numerous people from the noble class in history had tried to borrow the Prescription of Golden Medicine, and their offers had been even more tempting than this. Yet, the Seymour family rarely took the Prescription of Golden Medicine out for them.
It was obvious that money alone was not going to easily compel the Seymour family.
The same could be interpreted from Paul’s response. Paul did not respond to Damian’s offer in the slightest as if it was totally irrelevant.
Instead, Paul looked at Thomas and asked, “I wonder what you’re planning to offer, Mr. Mayo?”
It was a question to test Thomas.
Thomas smiled faintly and gave favonovel.com an exquisite answer, “The Prescription of Golden Medicine is priceless. If someone can just pay to see it, I guess everyone in the world would know about this Prescription of Golden Medicine by now… Mr. Seymour, since you didn’t chase us out today, that means there’s something you want… And since you already have something in mind, why should I make an unnecessary offer?”
His words filled Damian with disdain. “Just be honest if you’re poor. Why are you being so pretentious?”
Unexpectedly, Mr. Seymour clapped his hands continuously and said, “Mr. Mayo, you’ve spoken what was on my mind.”
That made Damian’s jaw drop.
What was going on?
Were they in this together?
Damian awkwardly cleared his throat without another word and silently listened to Paul.
Paul said to them, “Firstly, I have to tell you that you‘ve come at the right time. The Seymour family is not very protective of the Prescription of Golden Medicine. If you’d like to have it, there’s a chance. ”
Damian was ecstatic. However, Thomas was thinking. Paul said ‘a chance’, so it was not that they could take it back with them now. Meaning, there had to be a catch.
It was like buying a lottery ticket. Each ticket came with a chance to win $5,000,000, but how many people could actually win it?
That was the important point.
Paul continued to say, “But, your ability will determine whether you can have the Prescription of Golden Medicine or not…”
Indeed, it was not easy to get the Prescription of Golden Medicine.
“Here’s the thing…”
Then, Paul told all of them about the Prescription of Golden Medicine. After they heard from him, they were a little dumbfounded. Each of them had some thoughts about it, and they planned their next steps.
It turned out that there was a reason Paul was willing to put the Prescription of Golden Medicine on the table. The reason was, the Great Elder, who kept the “Positive Prescription”, had unexpectedly passed away from an illness!
