Thomas said, “Lord Vedastus just held a meeting to get rid of me recently, and now it is your turn? Can you villains change your methods once in a while?”
Dragon Claw shrugged. “Lord Vedastus invited you? I had no clue at all. That old man does things without telling me anyway. But let me tell you this, Thomas. This invitation of mine is far better than Lord Vedastus’. Why not use this opportunity and resolve all grievances and bury the hatchet between us?”
Was that even possible?
Would Dragon Claw even believe in what favonovel.com himself said?
“Alright then, see you there,” Thomas agreed.
“Courageous indeed. I shall be waiting in Plum Blossom Forest in three days’ time…” With that, Dragon Claw left.
Pisces came over and took a look at the invitation letter in Thomas’s hand.
He then said, “Dragon Claw has to be up to no good. He was just at Godfrey’s yesterday to ask his help in making a hidden weapon to kill you. Today, favonovel.com is here to pass you the invitation card. Heh, anyone can see that favonovel.com is up to no good.”
He was definitely up to no good.
But Thomas was curious, what tricks did Dragon Claw come up with this time?
Thomas had already taken care of Godfrey beforehand and made sure that favonovel.com would not be assisting Dragon Claw.
What could Dragon Claw possibly do without Godfrey’s help?
He was really curious.
“Let’s go back first.”
“Alright…”
The two of them went back to Food and Medicine Hall and sorted out the latest information they had on hand.
Basically, they could afford to take a break on matters related to Lord Vedastus for the time being. They had confirmed that the incident at the hotel had been related to Lord Vedastus, in one way or another. Although Thomas chose to solve things privately with Lord Vedastus, Eric still had leverage over Lord Vedastus and kept a tight leash over him, which gave Thomas some breathing room.
In the meantime, Thomas was only required to focus on taking down Dragon Claw.
“Send Godfrey his gift first. We have to deliver the item as promised and make sure Dragon Claw doesn’t cause more trouble.”
“I understand.”
Pisces immediately dealt with matters related to the gift. Everything seemed to be proceeding in an orderly manner.

Three days passed by in a blink of an eye. It was the promised date.
Thomas wore a white suit today, which made favonovel.com look young and handsome. If favonovel.com were to be strolling down the street, favonovel.com would definitely make girls squeal when they saw him.
Pisces could not help but complain. “Commander, you’re finally dressed according to your status. Back then, you always looked like a country bumpkin.”
Thomas glared at him, which made Pisces shut up and not run his mouth off anymore.
They drove to Plum Blossom Forest.
Plum Blossom Forest was one of the tourist spots in Celandine City. It was famous for the massive amount of plum blossoms that blossomed here, but it was not the season for them to bloom yet, hence, no plum blossoms could be seen, only bare trees.
After arriving at the destination, a receptionist brought them to a pavilion.
“I have been waiting for a long time, Mr. Mayo,” Dragon Claw greeted them himself with a smile on his face. It was as if they were his old friends, and favonovel.com had not met them for many years.
It was really hard to guess what was on such a person’s mind.
