Back to the Past Breaking the Love Spell (Carlisle Zahn) novel Chapter 227

Chapter 227 

Sarah, with a pout on her red lips, said plaintively, “Austin…” 

Austin, feeling frustrated, remarked, “A few insults won’t do any harm.” 

Sarah looked at him sadly. 

Seeing her reaction, Austin softened his tone a bit. 

“Alright. Let’s remember this for later. Once my dad sorts out the Thompson family, I’ll help you get your revenge. 

Sarah could only nod quietly in response. 

Outside, Sean persisted in his questioning, but Carlisle wouldn’t reveal said to Austin. 

Carlisle flagged down a taxi for Lily and Sean. 

“Drop me a message when you reach school.” 

“Got it, Carl. Catch you later!” 

“Goodbye, Carl!” 

They waved goodbye to Carlisle, who waved back with a grin. 

At that moment, Lawrence received a call from Wanda. 

She needed to take some time off from school. 

Lawrence had to reject her request due to the rules of military training. 

Because of the noise outside, Lawrence switched to speakerphone mode.

Carlisle casually draped his arm over Lawrence’s shoulder when he heard Wanda’s voice and Lawrence’s 

refusal. 

He said with a smile, “Mr. Hanson, Wanda and I were high school buddies. We’re really close.” 

Lawrence hesitated for a moment. He glanced at Francis standing on the roadside and noticed Francis! face was filled with melancholy as he smoked. Lawrence picked up his phone and called Wanda back. 

“Mr. Hanson…” Wanda’s soft voice came through the phone. 

Lawrence spoke calmly, “Um… Is your matter really urgent?” 

Wanda thought for a moment before timidly saying, “Not really… It can wait until after the military training. 

At the sound of Wanda’s meek tone, Lawrence softened his stance and replied, “I can give my approval on my end, but it’s ultimately up to your counselor and the principal.” 

Wanda was thrilled. 

“I’ve already spoken with them, and they’ve both approved!” 

Lawrence’s mouth twitched at her words. 

He pondered when Susan and the principal were so easy to persuade. 

“Could it be that Wanda has some special status? Lawrence couldn’t help but wonder 

After ending the call, Lawrence flashed a grin at Carlisle. Her leave’s sorted!” 

“Thank you, Mr. Hanson Carlisle grinned in gratitude. 

Lawrence shrugged and leaned in, saying. “Take care of my sergeant. He’s a real hero.” 

Carlisle asked in a hushed tone, “What kind of hero?” 

With a chuckle, Lawrence replied, “Can’t spill the beans on that one. Even if his own parents asked, he 

wouldn’t say a word!” 

Carlisle nodded. “I understand. It must be the confidentiality agreement and all” 

Lawrence remained silent as he and his two comrades hopped into a taxi 

Since Francis had a few drinks and couldn’t drive, he and Carlisle hailed a taxi back to the studio. 

In the taxi, Francis couldn’t help but ask, “What did you tell Austin earlier?” 

One would expect that Austin’s background as the son of Riverland’s wealthiest would have him accustomed to all sorts of situations. Yet, Carlisle’s words seemed to catch him off guard. 

1 basically told him that investing all my money with his biggest business rival is akin to the underdog challenging the top dog. It was enough to make him break a sweat! Carlisle shared 

“But isn’t he supported by Yuriel? Why would he back down?” 

Francis still couldn’t wrap his head around it. 

“Austin hasn’t fully taken over the family business yet. He probably has his own smaller ventures. I’ve pumped tens of millions of dollars into his main competitors in those ventures. It’ll definitely keep him tossing and turning at night!” Carlisle explained with a sly grin. 

“What if Yuriel decides to splash a load of cash? I mean, he’s the richest guy around. Itd make complete sense for him to throw in tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions, for his own son, right?” 

“With Riverwatch District development looming. Yuriel’s directing his investments there. He won’t be bothering with Austin’s small businesses,” Carlisle confidently remarked as he lounged back in his seat with legs crossed. 

Francis gave a thumbs up. 

“Impressive. I’m starting to think you’re some sort of ageless wizard, having Austin’s psyche all figured out like that!” 

“Seriously, how many drinks have you guys had?” 

Chapter 227 

The taxi driver couldn’t resist butting in. 

“Tens of millions? Hundreds of millions? You’re talking about Yuriel, the richest guy in Riverland! 

“You guys talk big, yet you’re taking a taxi home.” 

Carlisle and Francis wisely kept quiet. 

There wasn’t much point in explaining it to him anyway.
