Chapter 1127

The next day, when Zoey arrived with her son, Cedric Prince, in tow, she mentioned the annual salary she intended to offer Travis–three hundred silver coins.

Travis was fond of money, but even he knew he wasn’t worth that much. He immediately tried to refuse.

“No, that’s far too much. Sixty silver coins a year is already more than enough. Three hundred is too generous, and I wouldn’t feel right accepting it.”

No matter how Zoey insisted, he refused to take three hundred silver coins and stood firm on his demand for just sixty silver coins a year.

Zoey turned to Carissa, silently pleading for help in convincing him.

Carissa smiled warmly. “Sixty silver coins it is, then. Listen to Mr. Mullen. Whether it’s sixty or three hundred, the teaching will be the same. This way, he won’t have such a heavy burden on his conscience.”

Since Carissa had said so, Zoey could only express her deep gratitude. Whether it was for schooling or learning skills, Zoey had no objections to spending money–so long as it was within her means.
