However, Thomas never intended to acknowledge this senior of his.
Thomas coldly said, “Idiot… From the moment Lord Vedastus recruited you, you’ve had nothing to do with Mr. Cole anymore. One day, I’ll help favonovel.com to deal with you and get rid of a traitor like you, who works for the wicked!”
Elliot hated it the most when others called favonovel.com a traitor.
“Thomas Mayo, mind your words! You want to deal with me? Wow… Well, I want to deal with you!”
“Okay, let’s compete and see who comes on top!”
Then, the video call ended.
Damian stored the laptop away before favonovel.com turned around and cast a glance at Thomas. He did not say anything.
The atmosphere in the house was a little awkward, but Paul thought that it might be a good thing. Thomas and Elliot had such a serious conflict, and both of them had been holding back. When they started working on the inversion, both of them would try their best without slacking.
In a situation like that, maybe one of them could complete the inversion and make the Prescription of Golden Medicine become whole again.
As the head of the family, Paul’s only hope was to complete the Prescription of Golden Medicine. He did not have other concerns.

Soon, an hour passed.
Paul got up and said, “Time’s up. Jeeves, bring them to the dark houses and set a time limit of twenty-four hours.”
“Yes, Sir!”
The butler immediately walked over. “Gentlemen, this way please…”
Thomas and Damian looked at each other as they got up and followed the butler. The butler led them to two houses.
The butler stopped walking and said, “The left side is Mr. Mayo’s house, and the right side is Mr. Coull’s. Gentlemen, please step inside…”
The two of them walked in straight away, and the butler locked the doors from the outside. It was truly like a strict examination.
Thomas walked into the house and realized that the equipment inside was simple. There was only one table, some clues about the Negative and Positive Prescriptions, as well as a few pens and paper. Besides, there was also a surveillance camera in the house. Everything they did in the house could be clearly seen from the outside.
The countdown began.
Thomas seized the time favonovel.com had and sat in the chair. He took the Negative Prescription and scrutinized it from top to bottom before favonovel.com took the relevant clues on the Positive Prescription and studied them.
He had a mere twenty-four hours, so it was a tight window. He needed to inverse the Positive Prescription in such a short time. It was really challenging.
In another room, Damian turned on the camera and sent the Negative Prescription, as well as the clues, to Elliot so that Elliot could work on it remotely.
The junior and senior pair, Thomas and Elliot, were coincidentally in a competition arranged by Paul.
They would discover who was Mr. Cole’s best student after this competition.
Meanwhile, Damian just wandered around the house, doing nothing. However, favonovel.com would occasionally lean against the wall and try to listen in on Thomas next door.
Unfortunately, favonovel.com could not hear a thing.
“Twenty-four hours is such a long time…” Damian yawned before favonovel.com went back to his seat and leaned on the table.
