Back to the Past Breaking the Love Spell (Carlisle Zahn) novel Chapter 119

Chapter 119 

“How many units do you have?” Carlisle asked. 

“Six, and they’re all overlooking the river. They should be pretty easy to rent out once you’ve refurbished them a little!” Sunny answered. 

“I’ll meet you at 6:00 pm tomorrow, then.” 

“Alright. I’ll be waiting for your phone call!” 

Carlisle was delighted after hanging up. In three days, the news that Riverwatch District would undergo. development would start to spread among the upper crust. There was also one important factor that led. to his decision–Riverland’s first subway station would be in Riverwatch District. 

Once the wealthy heard about this, they would fall over themselves to purchase property at Riverwatch District, and the prices would skyrocket overnight. 

Six units were far too small a number. Carlisle’s plan was to invest all eight million dollars he had in the area. In three days time, it would probably increase by three to five times. 

After having some drinks with Heath and the others, Carlisle got up to head back to the third floor so he could accompany Wanda. He said to Heath, “Remember to talk to Benjamin and Owen. Tell them we’ll settle the score starting next month.” 

Heath nodded with a smile. “They’re still young. I hope you won’t be too harsh on them.” 

Carlisle smiled and left. Hank downed his liquor, then asked Heath, “Do you believe the things he said?” 

Heath shook his head. “Not really.” 

Cameron looked resolute, though. “I have faith in Carl.” 

The three of them turned to look at Francis. He asked, “So what if we don’t believe him? Can you guys 

take lan down?” 

He laughed mirthlessly. In truth, he didn’t have much faith in Carlisle, either. If the latter were around his age, he would probably be less wary. But Carlisle was much younger. Francis didn’t think he was capable of taking down lan’s financial backer. 

The only thing about Carlisle that could make Francis have some semblance of faith in him was how he was more mature than the people his age. 

Heath and Hank lowered their heads and sighed deeply. 

Carlisle returned to the private room on the third floor to accompany Wanda. After they were fed and watered, he went to the front desk to settle the bill. His bill was slightly over 300 dollars, but Mike and his men had spent 12 thousand dollars.

It pissed him off. They must’ve ordered several bottles of good liquor.

Wanda had already seen Lily a cab. When she saw Carlisle come out, she said, “How much was the bill? I’ll pay you back.” 

She was the one who’d wanted to treat Lily to a meal, so she didn’t feel good having Carlisle foot the bill. There was also the fact that Carlisle was starting his own business–he had to be short on cash. Why else would he have borrowed money from her? 

He tucked his hands in his pockets and said with a smile, “You don’t have to be so polite with me. We’re all classmates. It wouldn’t be wrong for me to treat her to a meal.” 

“No, that won’t do. I have to pay for this!” Wanda stubbornly pulled out some 100–dollar bills from her 

purse 

Carlisle was bemused. “That really isn’t necessary.” 

She glared at him. “If you don’t take the money, I won’t bring you along to any more of my gatherings!” 

He relented and tugged two notes from the stack Wanda held. “Let’s split the bill, then. The meal cost 360 

dollars–you can pa 

I 200 dollars while I pay the remainder.” 

She stuffed all the money she held into his hands. “Take it all!”
