Remorse After Breaking Up (Sebastian) novel Chapter 970

"That's right." Lydia nodded slightly.

However, Sebastian shook his head.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Lydia asked with a frown, clearly displeased.

"Ms. Lockhart, you're beautiful, and you're the granddaughter of the Sacred Ground's elder. How could you fall for someone like Juniper?" Sebastian asked in confusion.

"What's wrong with Juniper? Explain yourself!" Lydia said loudly as she placed her hands on her hips.

Sebastian replied, "Juniper is bad news. He used to be obsessed with a female disciple from Swordity, but she never gave him the time of day. Now, he's engaged to you, but it's obvious that he's only interested in your status. There's no way he actually loves you."

"You're talking nonsense!" Lydia glared angrily at Sebastian, her face turning red with anger.

"It's common knowledge. If you don't believe me, you can ask Ms. Sidorov," Sebastian said.

"Is that true?" Lydia turned to ask Deimante.

"I've heard similar rumors," Deimante replied as she nodded.

"For heaven's sake!" Lydia was so furious that she stomped her foot. After a moment, she sighed and said, "Honestly, I don't want to marry him either. This whole thing was my grandfather's idea. What can I do?"

"That's what I don't get. There must be countless talented young men in the Sacred Ground, and they should all be better than Juniper. Why would your grandfather want you to marry such an unremarkable guy?" Sebastian asked, still puzzled.

"Forget it. I don't want to talk about it anymore. Let's stick to business," Lydia said, clearly not wanting to dwell on the subject.

Some were for healing, and others were to increase cultivation, purify the body, or detoxify poison. It ranged from first-rank pills to fourth-rank pills.

Lydia proposed, "I'll take as many as you have. I'll pay you 10% more than the Bejeweled Tower's selling price, but only if you agree to sell your pills exclusively to me from now on."

Her offer was no small sum. The Bejeweled Tower had already raised the prices of his pills by 20% when they resold them, and now Lydia was offering him an additional 10%. The profit would be substantial.

"Ms. Lockhart, isn't that a bit too greedy? Can you even handle that much?" Sebastian asked with a chuckle.

"That's none of your concern. You provide the pills, and I'll provide the money. You won't be shortchanged," Lydia replied confidently.

"Your family runs a merchant guild, don't they?" Sebastian guessed.
