131, a father-horse decision

Seeing Brody Mill sitting alone in the corner drinking wine, Sean's mood suddenly improved a lot.
This can be regarded as revenge for the flaming imp Levi Anson!
After all, Levi Anson was in a state of ecstasy this afternoon due to the backlash of magic... No, he was dying, and Sean felt quite distressed when he saw it.
Under the stimulation, Brody vented his anger on Levi Anson.
...
The dinner party has started for some time now, and there are many pairs of nobles dancing on the dance floor on the north side of the hall, including Sean and Jessica.
At this time, Sean was holding Jessica's waist and dancing on the dance floor to the melody played by the musicians.
Fortunately, his predecessor had muscle memory about dancing, otherwise Sean would really not be able to handle dancing, which requires skill.
Although he had muscle memory, Sean still experienced muscle stiffness during the dance and occasionally made small mistakes.
Fortunately, Jessica didn't focus on dancing, so Sean managed to cope with it.
Now Jessica is no longer as calm and calm as she used to be. Her heartbeat is also a little fast now, she doesn't dare to look directly at Sean, and she is also thinking about random things in her mind.
However, as a dance partner, Jessica still saw that Sean did not pay attention to her.
So Jessica pinched Sean's waist with her fingertips in dissatisfaction: "Your Highness Sean, what are you thinking about?"
"Oh, it's nothing, I was thinking about opening tomorrow." Sean came back to his senses and adjusted his slightly panicked dance steps.
After finishing the adjustment, Sean blew into Jessica's ear and said softly: "By the way, Jessica, I have a question for you."
"What's the problem?" Feeling Sean's hot breath in her ears, Jessica was inexplicably panicked.
"What I want to ask is." Sean paused and said, "Does your butler Gabe sell it?"
Jessica: “???”
Jessica originally thought Sean was going to ask something big, but she didn't expect to ask this...
"Why are you asking this?" Jessica looked at Sean in confusion.
"It's nothing. I found that Gabe's business ability is quite strong, and I am relatively short of manpower... Let's do this, you sell him to me, and I will pay 300 gold coins!" Sean winked at Jessica.
Eye.
Hearing Sean's words, Jessica suddenly became vigilant. Why did Sean want to buy her housekeeper? Is there any conspiracy?
So Jessica said cautiously: "Let me think about it before I say it!"
"Okay, remember to let me know when you've finished thinking about it!"
After Sean finished speaking, he stopped mentioning the matter and continued dancing with Jessica.
In fact, Sean did not intend to buy Gabe, but Sean had promised Gabe to praise him in front of Jessica, so Sean chose this method that seemed to be "poaching", which was a disguised form of praise.
Gabe.
After all, this is more concealed and less likely to arouse Jessica's suspicion.
...
...
After the song ended, Sean and Jessica said goodbye and left the dance floor towards the dining area.
Now Windsor has got rid of the "encirclement" of the nobles and is sitting on the east side of the dining area to enjoy his meal;
Sofia was also sitting at one of the tables in the dining area, eating desserts with a sad look on her face;
Brody was sitting on the west side of the dining area drinking wine, but he was no longer alone. There were two more familiar nobles around him talking to him.
Seeing Sean come to the dining area, Windsor quickly waved to Sean, indicating that there was an empty seat next to him.
Sean did not go to Windsor. He nodded to Windsor first, and then walked towards Brody on the west side of the dining area.
...
When the two nobles next to Brody saw Sean coming, they looked at Sean nervously as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
When Brody saw that Sean actually dared to come over, he clenched his fists and said angrily: "Sean! How dare you come to my place?"
Sean ignored Brody, but said to the two nobles beside him: "You two, I want to talk to Viscount Mill alone, can you give me some face?"
After hearing Sean's words, the two nobles looked at Brody.
Brody thought for a moment and nodded hesitantly.
The two nobles saw Brody nodding and left quickly.
...
After the two nobles left, Brody crossed his arms and glared at Sean: "Sean, why are you here looking for me? Are you trying to bewitch me again? I won't be bewitched by you!
"
After Brody finished speaking, he directly sealed his ears with fighting spirit and looked at Sean with a sneer.
Sean saw Brody sealing his ears with fighting spirit again, and couldn't help but feel helpless. Who @#¥% invented this technique in the first place? It left him with no strength to use it.
However, Sean was not completely helpless. He had an idea and folded the note that Gabe handed him, and then handed it to Brody.
Brody took the note doubtfully.
I opened it and looked at it. There were only two big words on the note: "Praise me!"
Seeing these two words, Brody was so angry that he threw the note on the table in front of him, and then yelled at Sean:
"Sean Violet! Are you @#¥% kidding me?"
Because if you plug your ears when roaring, the sound will shock your brain very uncomfortable, so Brody turned on the fighting spirit blockade on his ears.
Sean's eyes lit up when he saw that Brody had lifted the grudge blockage in his ears, and he hurriedly said: "Brody, to tell you the truth, my store will officially open tomorrow, so I am very short of money."
Brody: "???"
"Aren't you a fool! You asked me to borrow money? Do you think I will lend you the money?"
Brody looked at Sean like he was a fool.
"That's it." Sean explained: "I made a fatherly decision!"
"What kiss?"
"This is not important." Sean continued: "Our main conflict now is because of Jessica, right?"
"That's right." Brody nodded cautiously.
Sean looked around, then lowered his voice and said:
"I am very short of money now. Give me 1,000 gold coins and I will leave Jessica immediately and promise never to compete with you again, let alone seduce Jessica. I will do what I say!"
"Are you sure?!" Brody said in surprise, looking at Sean with burning eyes.
"Of course, I can swear this in the name of my family!" Sean stretched out his right hand and solemnly promised.
At the same time, Sean also took out the small notebook he carried with him: "If you don't believe it, we can sign the agreement now."
Brody thought about it seriously, but shook his head.
"What? That's not possible? Don't you trust our family?" Sean's heart tightened.
"No, I can only take out 733 gold coins now." Brody looked at Sean apologetically: "Can 733 gold coins be enough?"
"This...seems a little less." Sean frowned pretending to be embarrassed.
Chapter completed!
