Seth was silent for a moment and said, "She just asked for four hundred thousand dollars. Do you think she is too greedy? The money is enough to buy two graves in the best cemetery in Northville."
When Richard heard this, he cried out in surprise, "No way, she asked for so much money from you in one night? Is she out of her mind?"
"That's not the case," Seth explained. "She said that as long as I am willing to give her four hundred thousand dollars, I can keep her as a mistress and I can do whatever I want to her. There's no time limit and no limit on how many times I want to do it."
"Hahaha, then you're in trouble!" Richard burst out laughing on the opposite side. "Being pestered by such a woman, you have no idea whether she's losing or you're losing!"
"Of course. I'm losing." Seth lamented. "You know, I like that kind of pudgy girl. She's too skinny. I was in a panic by just looking at her."
Richard laughed even louder when he heard that, "Buddy, I feel sorry for you. Just bear with it and it will pass soon!"
Seth sighed and said, "I gave her 50,000 dollars just now. Now I still have to pay four hundred thousand dollars. Can you help me tell Patrick?"
"Well, I'll tell him later. Don't worry, Patrick will definitely return the money to you."
Seth replied, "Of course. Patrick has always been business-bound."
"Well, then you have to continue to contact her. By the way," Richard thought of something and asked, "do you need sleeping pills?"
Seth rubbed his nose and said, "Ah, I was just going to buy it. I made an appointment with her to see her tomorrow night. Anyway, I've already promised to keep her as a mistress. If I do nothing, she would suspect it. But I can't really do anything. I can only drug her."
Richard said, "Come to me, I have pills that are better than the pills in the pharmacy." "Okay, where are you?" Seth asked. After he got the address, he drove there quickly.
At the same time-
Patrick received a call from the boss of The Dynasty, saying that Brittany was now in his nightclub, so he didn't need to worry about her.
"Well, thank you, Mr. Will. Our little sister is not sensible. Please make sure that someone is keeping an eye on her secretly. Don't let her do anything wrong," Patrick said.
The boss of The Dynasty said with reverence and fear, "Don't worry, I will not neglect her."
Patrick reminded him, "You don't have to treat her too well, lest she sees anything wrong with you."
The boss of The Dynasty quickly replied, "Okay, you can rest assured. I will do things accordingly."
As soon as Patrick put down his phone, Amelia, who had been paying close attention, immediately asked, "Mr. Hopper, how is it
going?"
"There's no problem," Patrick said. "Brittany is already under my monitor. I won't let her escape."
"So, Mr. Hopper, what are you going to do..." Before Amelia could finish her words, Patrick's phone rang again.
Patrick looked down and said, "It's Richard."
"Then pick it up quickly!" Amelia said hurriedly.
After Patrick slipped off the answer button, he heard Richard's report from the other end of the line. "Patrick, Seth has successfully gotten in touch with Brittany and is even planning to keep her as his mistress. However, she asked for a high price."
"How much?" Patrick asked calmly.
"Four hundred thousand dollars." Richard replied.
Although four hundred thousand dollars was a small amount for Patrick, it did not mean that he had no idea about money at all. Ordinary funerals which lasted a few days
would only cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. Why did Brittany need so much money?
Patrick thought for a while and said, "I see. Let Seth come to me to get the check."
Richard replied with a "yes" and asked in confusion, "Patrick, what do you think Brittany is up to? She has her parents who can help her. She only needs to apologize to them when she gets home."
"Wouldn't she get everything? Why would she do something like this? Moreover, isn't she afraid that Daniel would be pissed off by what she's doing?"
"She's probably the only one who knows." Patrick asked, "Is there anything else?"
Richard said, "No. I’ll report to you if anything happens to Brittany."
"Amy," Patrick put down his phone and took the initiative to say to Amelia, "Don't worry, my people have already been in contact with Brittany."
Amelia nodded and asked, "Did Richard talk about money just now?"
Patrick replied, "Yes, the reason why Brittany went to the nightclub was to sell herself and make money for Daniel's funeral."
"In that case, I just sent one of my men to pretend to be her guest and give her as much money as she wants. After she earns enough, she will naturally leave those places."
Amelia asked, "How much does she want?"
Patrick reported, "Four hundred thousand dollars."
Amelia was alarmed. "That much"
Patrick said, "Maybe she still has other ideas, such as getting rid of Richard's control and starting a new life."
"Starting a new life by finding a man to keep her as a mistress?" Amelia's tone was a little bad. "If Dad and Alice know about it, they will die of anger!"
"..." Young Lady, can you stop pretending? Who doesn't know that you lived in a mansion before the accident?
"It's all right," Seth said humbly. "I've always been living alone, so the furnishings might be a little simpler. Don't mind."
Brittany expressed her understanding.
Seth said, "You can stay here until we end our relationship. There are supermarkets, a cinema, and a beauty salon around here."
"If I don't have time to accompany you, you can walk around nearby. However, I don't like you to hook up with other men after being with me. Can you do that?"
"Of course, as long as you give me four hundred thousand dollars, I will definitely be loyal to you," Brittany emphasized the money.
Seth nodded and pulled out the car key. "I don't have any condoms at home. Do you mind if I buy some?"
Brittany shook her head and said, "I don't mind. I can go with you."
It was not easy for her to catch such a big fish. She had to keep an eye on him.
Seth's lips twitched. "It's alright. There's a convenience store up ahead. Wait for me in the car. I'll be back soon."
Brittany did not want to upset him, so she said, "Alright."
"By the way, what kind of drinks do you like?" Before getting out of the car, Seth casually asked.
"I'm fine with anything." Brittany just wanted to finish the task quickly with Seth. At least she could get the password of the card last night, which had 50,000 dollars!
She was not worried that Seth would pretend as if nothing had happened after he slept with her. She was an employee of The Dynasty. If he did this to her, The Dynasty would send thugs to collect money from him. These nightclubs were involved in the underworld, so they would not go easy on him.
In the convenience store, Seth was worried that he might buy drinks that Brittany did not like, so he decided to buy all the drinks before he went back to look for her.
Looking at the two big bags in Seth's hands, Brittany thought they were all condoms. But after looking at them carefully, she found that they were drinks.
Noticing that Brittany was looking at him, Seth explained, "I don't know what you like to drink, so I bought you all the drinks."
Brittany praised him. "Mr. Charles, you are so considerate. Why are you still single?"
Hearing that, Seth said calmly, "I don't want to get married."
Brittany raised her brows, a faint smile appeared on her face. "Mr. Charles, are you warning me not to fall in love with you?"
Seth laughed, "I don't think there's anything else that attracts you other than my money, right?"
