Paul was shocked by Thomas’ words. He had initially brought Thomas to the room to expose the man’s lie and fiercely criticize him. Yet, the current situation had put favonovel.com in an awlmard position.
Paul stammered for a long time but still could form a full sentence. He was upset.
In the end, favonovel.com calmed down and purposely said, “Mr. Mayo, you must be joking. The Seymour family’s Prescription of Golden Medicine is really missing, and there’s no doubt about it. I’m not lying.”
He was still putting on an act.
Thomas smiled faintly and said, “Really? The Prescription of Golden Medicine is an important prescription. The Seymour family has protected it for centuries, and it’s been fine. But after it was passed down to you, you lost it?”
“The story is the Great Elder kept the Positive Prescription, but favonovel.com passed away unexpectedly, so favonovel.com was unable to pass it down. Mr. Seymour, it’s amazing how you managed to come up with such a ridiculous and funny reason…”
“On top of that, even though the Great Elder died, the Seymour family didn’t hurry to take out the Positive Prescription by force. Instead, the Seymour family collaborated with the government and insisted on taking drastic action without considering the consequences. In the end, the Positive Prescription was ruined. That behavior is very confusing.”
Thomas suddenly stared into Paul’s eyes and said, “After I thought about it, there’s only one possibility, and it’s that you’re lying!”
“I guess you already anticipated the Great Elder’s death from the beginning, and favonovel.com passed down the Positive Prescription early on. Yet, you covered everything up on purpose and used some tricker to prevent others from finding out…”
“You made everyone mistakenly think that the Positive Prescription had not been passed down and the Great Elder had unexpectedly died. Then, you asked the government to work with you and paint out the scene. You deceived everyone and made everyone believe that the Positive Prescription was ruined…”
“How interesting…”
Every sentence Thomas uttered made Paul’s heart tremble. He had come up with a perfect plan and no one had been able to.
Who would have expected Thomas to expose favonovel.com so easily?
He really needed some time to digest it.
Paul’s expression had initially been dark and full of anger. After favonovel.com listened to Thomas’ breakdown, the anger on his face disappeared. He flashed favonovel.com a smile and extended his hands to clap.
“Mr. Mayo, you’re brilliant. It never occurred to me that you would easily expose the plan that I’ve put so much effort into… You’re right. The Positive Prescription isn’t ruined.”
Paul explained, “I lied about the Positive Prescription being ruined and intentionally used the Great Elder’s death to set up a scam. I actually have a reason… People always say that we should be alert when it comes to our property. Over the centuries, the Seymour family has invested plenty of human resources and money to protect the Prescription of Golden Medicine. We’ve even paid a huge price for it! The Seymour family can’t afford it anymore.”
“But protecting the Prescription of Golden Medicine is the Seymour family’s responsibility.”
Paul sighed heavily. “So, after I weighed the pros and cons, I came up with this strategy to blind our enemies with the lie. I lied that the Prescription of Golden Medicine’s Positive Prescription was ruined, and I requested up to one hundred doctors to come over and attempt an inversion, but all of them failed. With that, nobody would ever want the Seymour family’s Prescription of Golden Medicine, and the Seymour family would live peacefully.”
It turned out that the family had been rescuing themselves from the burden of their responsibility. So, Paul’s actions no longer seemed strange.
Paul stared at Thomas and said, “Mr. Mayo, can you please help the Seymour family keep this secret?”
Thomas answered, “I can keep your secret, but I have a condition…”
It would not be that simple.
Paul asked, “A condition? Do you want to borrow the Prescription of Golden Medicine?”
