Back to the Past: Breaking the Love Spell

Chapter 584

"You're sick. You'd better see a doctor about it," Carlisle remarked, his expression cold.

He had been trying to play nice to strike a deal with her, but it seemed she thought she had leverage over him.

"I was just messing with you!"

Zoey chuckled, then continued solemnly, "So, what message do you want me to pass on?"

"Name your price first," Carlisle urged.

He couldn't understand Zoey's character, so he'd rather not owe her any favors.

Zoey blinked and said, "You've already given me 300 thousand dollars, so take this as a complimentary service."

"Business is business. I don't like being indebted to anyone."

"Alright then. 100 thousand!"

Zoey decided to ask for a high price since Carlisle insisted. She knew such a figure would be a piece of cake for him. Zoey had used her connections to investigate Wendell through the police system, but the result showed that his records were restricted. Even her contact, a high-ranking officer in the city hall, had no authority to access his profile.

Clearly, Wendell's identity was highly confidential. It was likely that he had served in special forces. Yet, despite his professional background, he was willing to work for Carlisle, a teenager.

Earlier that morning, Zoey had used her connections to investigate Carlisle, discovering that he was a businessman who had started from scratch and became the owner of several companies within two months.

Each of his companies had distinctive traits. Dragonaire Studio was an online game company. Although it had not launched any products yet, it had already secured a hefty 200 million investment. Meanwhile, Alumni Network had recently surged in popularity nationwide, particularly in universities.This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

Aurora Holdings was even more impressive. It boasted a talented team, including a top headhunter-Anthony Swanson. Their legal, finance, financial, and secretarial departments were all led by top professionals in their fields.

Zoey could foresee Carlisle reaching the pinnacle of the business world within the next decade.

She had intentionally teased him earlier to gauge his character. Clearly, Carlisle showed a level of maturity and composure beyond his years, remaining unaffected even by female advances. It was no wonder that he had established Aurora Holdings at such a young age.

Carlisle took out his phone and called Wendell.

Once the call connected, he instructed, "Arrange to send Ms. Miller 100 thousand dollars."

"Yes, boss!" Wendell replied.

Zoey received a call at the same time.

"They've arrived? That's early. Alright. I'm on my way back now!"

Zoey ended the call and, with a serious expression, said, "The representatives from Golden Happiness Group are here. I'm heading back to the HR Department now. You're on your own later, but I trust you can handle it."

Carlisle frowned. The representatives were supposed to arrive at four o'clock, yet they had arrived before two. He couldn't help but feel tense. After all, he was about to face a powerful conglomerate.

Aurora Holdings might seem formidable to ordinary people, but it was as insignificant as an ant in the eyes of real capital giants.
