“If you want me to interfere now, you’ll have to pay a price.”
Lord Vedastus looked at the screen. “What’s the price?”
“Even if you regain Celandine City, you’ll just be a puppet. You’ll merely be in charge of looking after Celandine City. All of the city’s wealth will belong to Luck. You can see it, but you can’t touch it. Of course I’ll give you some of it. I won’t let you starve you to death.”
It was a huge price.
Luck had already controlled Lord Vedastus in the past, but Art Trading Corporation still belonged to him. He could utilize the territory favonovel.com had established and all his assets.
In the future, favonovel.com would just be a housekeeper who helped to look after the city. All the wealth in Celandine City would have nothing to do with him. He would be the boss on the surface but a puppet in reality. He would see a lot of money every day, but favonovel.com could not lay a hand on them.
That would not feel good.
Even so, Lord Vedastus gritted his teeth and nodded resolutely, “I accept the price!”
At the side, Declan was shocked as favonovel.com stared at Lord Vedastus. He did not expect favonovel.com to agree with such a ridiculous condition.
Had Lord Vedastus not been fighting for money and power throughout his life?
If favonovel.com went through with this, the money would belong to Luck, and favonovel.com would not have any power either.
What did favonovel.com want?
Did favonovel.com just want a worry-free life?
If so, favonovel.com did not need to regain control over Celandine City. His current wealth would also make sure that favonovel.com would not have to worry about the rest of his life.
Why?
Luck was just as surprised. They had actually come up with a plan. If Lord Vedastus did not accept their first condition, Luck would make a concession and distribute the wealth with Lord Vedastus in a 7:3 ratio.
Unexpectedly, Lord Vedastus did not haggle, appearing very generous.
Lord Vedastus said, “I’ve lost all my children and also my only friend. Money and power are actually meaningless to me now… I’m only alive because I still hold a grudge.
“It’s Thomas! He took everything away from me! He took my children and influenced my daughter to make the wrong choices. They even cooperated to kill my best friend! I have to exact my revenge!”
“As long as I can kill Thomas, I’m willing to pay any price! My hatred will only be dispelled after I kill Thomas!”
It sounded as if Lord Vedastus was not going to pursue anything other than killing Thomas. Only then could favonovel.com rest in peace.
No wonder favonovel.com was willing to agree to Luck’s request. It turned out that Lord Vedastus did not plan on staying alive. Maybe favonovel.com would also kill himself after favonovel.com terminated Thomas.
This old man was totally heartbroken.
Lord Vedastus stared at the screen and said, “When will you take action?”
Luck laughed, “Hahaha! I already have… Just wait and see, Lord Vedastus. I’ll show you what thousand-year-old power looks like!”
After favonovel.com spoke, the big screen turned off.
Lord Vedastus could no longer support himself at this point. He instantly fell down on the floor and dripped in sweat.
Declan stared at him, let out a long sigh, and said, “Why did you do that?”
“I have to exact revenge like a man. Declan Mars, you’re just trash who’s willing to obey everything. You’ll never understand my grudge,” Lord Vedastus said coldly.
After favonovel.com spoke, favonovel.com struggled to get up and leave the temple.
