Remorse After Breaking Up (Sebastian) novel Chapter 887

Sebastian observed Edgar's reaction and felt satisfied. He knew that he had come to the right place this time.

Edgar took a deep breath and tried to calm his nerves. He knew this alchemist could be a game changer for their Chamber of Commerce. So, he needed to seize the moment and establish a long-term partnership with Sebastian.

"Sir, this matter is of great importance. Let me fetch Ms. Sidorov. Please wait a moment." Edgar signaled for an attendant to serve Sebastian before hurrying off.

Soon, Edgar returned with a woman beside him.

Sebastian was sipping tea when he saw the woman, and he was genuinely surprised. It was hard to believe that she was Deimante, the top student from Skyla Academy.

Bejeweled Tower was a major Chamber of Commerce with a thousand-year legacy, and it was clear they possessed immense wealth.

With access to advanced techniques and renowned mentors, someone like her wouldn't be drawn to a small institute like Skyla Academy. Even the Royal Academy wouldn't necessarily offer enough to tempt her.

Since Sebastian was wearing a cloak, Deimante didn't know that the mysterious alchemist in front of her was him.

So, she stepped forward and smiled brightly. "Esteemed alchemist, it is an honor to meet you. I am Deimante Sidorov, the lady of Bejeweled Tower."

Seeing that he didn't respond, she continued, "Your pills are exceptional, and it is almost unheard of in quality.

"On behalf of the Bejeweled Tower, I extend a sincere invitation for collaboration. We are willing to purchase your pills at a price above market value and will provide you with the highest quality service."

She pulled a black-and-gold card from her bosom and handed it to Sebastian. "This is our Chamber of Commerce's Supreme Black Card. It grants the holder top discounts and exclusive privileges at the Bejeweled Tower. I hope you will accept it as a token of our partnership."

Edgar quietly gasped on the side. He couldn't believe that Deimante was putting in a significant investment. There were only ten Supreme Black Cards, and each holder was a VIP.

While the pills weren't worth that much, she was keen to win him over and had offered a price far exceeding market value.

Although 100 thousand spiritual stones was a considerable sum, it wasn't enough for him. After a moment of hesitation, he looked at her and said, "I would like to borrow some money from the Chamber of Commerce. I was wondering if that can be arranged."

Deimante was taken aback. It was common knowledge that alchemists were quite wealthy. Yet, she wondered why someone in such a lucrative profession would ask to borrow money.

Still, she smiled and asked, "How much do you wish to borrow?"

Sebastian held up one finger. "One million spiritual stones."

Deimante's jaw dropped. Although she had anticipated that someone of his stature would request a large amount, the request of one million spiritual stones still stunned her.
