A Red Dead Redemption Story

Chapter 382 Magical Operation

A party is currently being held in Miller's mansion to celebrate Arthur's joining the association.

Howard, who had a goatee and oiled hair, came to Miller holding champagne, laughed and said:

"Miller, congratulations on winning the oil exploration rights of St. Denis Bay this time, and also purchasing equipment that Cornwall cannot take away at half price. Do you think this is the first time in these years that we have done anything in Cornwall?" Wall took advantage? Haha."

It can be seen that Howard is in a good mood today.

Miller just smiled and nodded and replied:

"Howard, this is due to Arthur Morgan, and don't just congratulate me. Is it possible that you don't have a share in it?"

Although Howard said Miller won it, in fact, it would be more appropriate to say that they won it together.

Miller is not in the habit of making money alone. He has always believed in the truth that in a business, the more money you make, the better. You always have to leave some money for others to make. This way everyone will be happy.

"Hey, it's my fault, it's my fault, really. I'm not complimenting you by saying this." Howard was still straightforward.

While the two were talking, Peter also arrived. Unlike Howard, who congratulated Miller as soon as he came up, he had not forgotten the purpose of today's party.

"Where's Arthur Morgan? Isn't this a party held to celebrate his initiation?"

Howard actually also had doubts about Peter. After all, he had been here for a while, and he had indeed not seen Arthur yet.

In this regard, Miller said with some embarrassment:
"About this, Arthur may not be able to attend."

Well, as soon as Miller said this, he felt that it was really outrageous, but there was nothing he could do about it. The main reason was that it had been decided before and then notified. You know, not everyone lives in Saint Denis. It would be better to just reschedule the event temporarily and let others make the trip in vain. It would be better to just do it as scheduled. As for Arthur, there is no way to attend.

If there's no way, there's no way. It's just a formality. Who wants Arthur to have more important things to do?

"Huh? What's wrong with him?" Peter asked Miller.

Howard on the side also did not express any dissatisfaction with Arthur's failure to attend the party held for him, but curiously waited for Miller's answer.

After all, Arthur is no longer the little businessman he was back then.

Whether it's Howard, who always wants to show himself to be very reckless, or Peter, who is scheming, they are more curious about what happened to Arthur than being angry and accusing him of not attending. Ser couldn't get away.

Miller looked at the curious two people, but he was secretive.

"Don't worry, I will read a manuscript for Arthur later that he has prepared in advance, and you will know it then. By the way, have you seen Mr. Green?"

"Miller, you don't know Green yet. If you want to find him in this situation, just go to the corner and look. Most likely, he will be alone there," Howard said.

"Okay, I thought that a small gathering like today would make him less withdrawn?" Miller smiled awkwardly.Peter nodded and said:

"It's not that lonely. When I passed by just now, he greeted me, which was better than when we had a big gathering. At that time, I took the initiative to greet him, and he nodded to me, and then remained silent. The ground went away."

"Ha ha ha ha."

Several people were chatting happily when an 'uninvited guest' that no one expected appeared.

"Mr. Miller, how can you not invite me to this kind of party?" Cornish said with a fake smile.

He pretended to be enthusiastic, opened his hands and stepped forward to hug Miller. Seeing Cornish coming, Howard and Peter quietly walked aside.

"Ah? Mr. Cornwall didn't receive my invitation? This shouldn't be the case. I even specifically asked my butler to deliver it in person. I'm really sorry. I will punish him well later. Him,” Miller said with the same smirk.

This scene is very interesting. It is obvious that one party came uninvited, and the other party wants to drive the other party out directly, but they all have false smiles on their faces, and then tell some lies that no one believes.

Cornwall did not hesitate about whether he was invited or not, but said:

"I came today mainly to thank Mr. Miller and everyone in your association. I especially want to thank Mr. Morgan himself. I wonder where he is now?"

"Ah, Mr. Cornish is too polite. He just took some business from you that you don't want. This is not worthy of your coming to thank you in person." When Miller said this, he was worried. It's so exciting. I never thought that one day I would have the opportunity to face Cornwall's eccentric people like this.

Although Cornwall was prepared to be ridiculed before coming, when Miller spoke freely in front of him, he still spent a lot of effort to finally hold back his temper. He said :
"Mr. Miller, you are all in our profession. You spend your whole day in this world of right and wrong. The people you deal with are right and wrong, the things you encounter are right and wrong, and the money you make is even more right and wrong. So, It’s better to be cautious in what you say, whether you are a person or a person, if you are too proud, there will be no good consequences.”

Listening to Cornwall's barbed words, Miller smiled even more happily. After all, it was not always possible to see Cornwall look like he wanted to have an attack but couldn't.

This also made him curious about what Cornwall wanted to do today.

"Mr. Cornwall's words are really thought-provoking. I just don't know what's going on when Cornwall comes here today?"

"I heard that today's gathering is to celebrate Mr. Morgan's joining your association. It doesn't happen to happen that I am also in Saint-Denis, so I wanted to come and meet Mr. Morgan and have a chat..."

Before Cornish finished speaking, Miller interrupted with a fake smile:
"That's such a pity. Mr. Morgan had something to do today and did not attend the party. Alas, Mr. Cornwall, it seems that your trip was in vain."

"?"

Cornwall felt as sick as if he had swallowed a toad stuck in his throat. What's the matter, it didn't matter that he couldn't see the mayor of Saint Denis, but now he couldn't even see Arthur Morgan?

He had some doubts that Miller was lying to himself. After all, his people clearly told him that this party was to celebrate Arthur Morgan's admission, and the mayor was likely to attend, so Cornwall came. this trip.
