Chapter 558 Sebastian's Bargaining Chip

Wyatt didn't outright refuse but instead made a suggestive remark. Sebastian, a clever man,understood what Wyatt meant. He knew that this wily fox thought his asking price was too high.Sebastian was aware that classmate affection wasn't worth a billion dollars—in fact, it might beworth nothing at all.

If he wanted that billion, he would have to offer something valuable in return. His greatestbargaining chip was his mentor, Anthony. Sebastian, without hesitation, leveraged his relationshipwith his master.

"Wyatt, you're aware that my master Anthony isn't just the top doctor in the USA but also arenowned disciple of Healthy Land. To secure an appointment with him, the consultation fee startsat fifty million. If you were to lend me a billion, I could arrange for him to consult on your medicalcase. I’ll convey your symptoms to him for advice.

However, if you give me a billion outright without expecting repayment, I could arrange for mymaster to see you or anyone you'd like him to treat up to three times. It doesn't have to be just foryou; it can be for someone else you want my master to examine.

With your extensive network and business dealings, I'm sure there are many who need a doctor ofmy master's caliber. Many of them could be of significant use to you. If you could have my mastertreat them, it would be doing them a huge favor. They would surely be grateful, wouldn't they?

The benefits you could reap from their gratitude would undoubtedly be worth more than just abillion, right? Consider that I could provide you with three opportunities to gain three favors."

Sebastian was adept at negotiating, although he was not entirely sure he could actually persuadeAnthony to come forward. But Wyatt didn't need to know that. Securing the billion dollars was thefirst step; the rest could be figured out later.

Sebastian's proposal momentarily stunned Wyatt. He had initially thought Sebastian was just anaive academic, a clueless bookworm. But today, the bookworm seemed to have had an epiphany.He was actually negotiating terms with him?

Sebastian's offer genuinely impressed Wyatt. Indeed, he did need Anthony's services for treatingcertain influential individuals. As for getting Joshua, that privilege was reserved for the most elite.For now, Wyatt didn't need Joshua's help; securing Anthony's services was already quite anaccomplishment.

He had heard that a university professor had recently fallen gravely ill, and her son was the mayorof Washington. Upon learning of the professor's illness, Wyatt had thought about sending a doctorto establish a connection with her. If he could help save the professor, that would open a direct linkto the mayor.

Wyatt had tried numerous approaches to get close to the mayor but to no avail. He hadn't evenmanaged to secure a dinner meeting with him. The terms Sebastian was offering were incrediblytempting for Wyatt at the moment, making his heart race.
