Back to the Past: Breaking the Love Spell

Chapter 402 

Max stared fixedly at Carlisle, his eyes as sharp as a falcon’s.. 

His hands balled into fists. 

“Max…” It was Gareth’s turn to kick Max. 

He knew that Max was angry. 

Max had trained in martial arts since he was young, and he was also an alternative 

medicine physician who could cure many difficult diseases. He was only with Gareth 

for Amos‘ sake. It was also to keep Gareth’s mania under control and protect him. 

Gareth had once personally watched Max tear a crazed mastiff to pieces with his 

bare hands. 

Max exhaled and smiled thinly. “I don’t know much about games. Why don’t you 

young people discuss it amongst yourselves?” 

He stood up and walked over to the Ferrari. 

“He’s probably entering menopause. Don’t mind him, Carl…” Gareth smiled as he 

lifted his wine glass. “Cheers!” 

Carlisle did not lift his own glass. He looked at Wanda instead and asked, “Are you 

full? 

Gareth’s smile froze. 

Carlisle was clearly indicating that there was no need for further discussion! 

Wanda patted her dress, which was stretched taut over her full stomach. Her teeth flashed as she grinned and said, “I’m full, and I’m kind of sleepy now…” 

Carlisle fondly brushed the strands of hair from around her mouth and said gently,” Let’s go home and go to bed!” 

He knew that the two games he had in mind would be explosively popular, and the 

money it would bring in was beyond their imagination. 

He had already helped Gareth narrowly escape death once. The only reason he was 

discussing this collaboration with Gareth was to establish an amicable relatiorien with the aristocrats so that things would be easier for him in the future. 

However, they still did not want to trust him. If that were so, there was no need for further discussion. 

As for the 200 million in Investment funds, he was sure that both Lethan and Shania would find a way to get it. If there were no way to do so, he would wait until next year, when he could use the money he earned through the fishing business to invest 

in his game. 

“Carl…” 

“Gareth, I’m getting tired. Let’s meet some other time.” Carlisle interrupted him, smiling slightly. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

It was impossible to tell what he was thinking. 

“I’d like to get the bill.” Gareth pulled out a wad of cash from his wallet. 

The owner smiled and said, “The bill for your table has already been paid. I still need to give you 160 dollars in change!” 

Owen had dropped by that afternoon to pay a 300–dollar deposit. 

Four steaks and the appetizers had only cost 140 dollars. 

However, 140 did seem rather expensive for this period of time. 

Gareth lit a cigarette and said, “Carl, I trust you. Let’s discuss this further!” 

“Wanda’s sleepy. Let’s talk some other time!” Carlisle smiled calmly and took Wanda’s hand. He led her away. 

At the side of the road, Max threw away his cigarette and hailed a cab for Carlisle. 

In the end, he was only Gareth’s subordinate, whilst Carlisle and Gareth were 

partners. 

Carlisle got into the car and smiled as he thanked Max. “Max, I’m still young and inexperienced, and I had a lot to drink tonight. If I offended you in any way, please 

don’t take it to heart.” 

Max laughed heartily and said, “Don’t worry, Mr. Zahn. I should have controlled my emotions better. That was remiss of me. Please don’t take my actions to heart, either! 

After they had exchanged niceties with each other, Carlisle instructed the driver to 

1. go. 

Max watched the cab disappear into the distance and returned to the dinner table.” 

How did it go?” 

“We were wrong, Max!” Gareth puffed ruefully on his cigarette, looking troubled. 

“Are you saying that we should trust him unconditionally? It’s not 3.5 million or even 20 million. It’s 200 million! It’s all you have left of your savings! 

“Any investment we make right now would really be treading on thin ice, and Carlisle 

is clearly trying to take us for a ride. If we trust him completely, we’ll only keep making mistakes until we eventually lose everything!” 

Max said seriously. “I’m not saying you should doubt him completely. I just want you 

to be able to seize the initiative!” 

“Max, if we hadn’t met Carlisle, do you think that that shipment of red wine would. have gotten through customs by now?” Gareth suddenly mentioned the red wine. 

*Probably!” 

“In a couple of days, wouldn’t this shipment of red wine have been delivered to various places all over the country? Wouldn’t that have resulted in more than 30 people dying?” Gareth raised the bottle and chugged half of it. 

“Well…” At the mention of this, Max was at a loss for words. 

“Which is to say that without Carlisle’s tip–off, not only would I have lost all the money, but I would also be saddled with more than 30 cases of death. I’m not in any position to discuss terms and conditions with him!” Gareth smiled bitterly. 

“Well, you can’t think of it that way! I’ve saved a couple of kids from drowning, but you don’t see me pressuring them to repay me for the rest of their lives!” Max was, still firm in his opinion. 

Chame to 

He knew Carlisle was extraordinary, but Carlisle was still a student who had just become an adult. Gareth was the rightful descendant of a prominent aristocratic family. Max did not want Carlisle to string Gareth along.
