Back to the Past: Breaking the Love Spell

Chapter 434

"I just found out about it now. Thank you, Ms. Lowe," Carlisle replied, his voice drained of energy as the phone slipped from his hand.

It turns out that Shein hadn't taken Wanda away for medical treatment purposes only. He probably planned to separate Wanda from Carlisle. In other words, even if Wanda recovered, she might not return to Riverland.

Carlisle tried to call Wanda, but her phone was switched off. Closing his eyes, Carlisle felt his heart in disarray.

After a brief moment, he opened his eyes and gently touched the couch cushion beside him, vividly remembering when Wanda had just been sitting there that morning, requesting him to feed her the imported black tea. The cup of black tea was still unwashed on the coffee table.

Carlisle returned to his room to collect his clothes from the balcony and put them on. He then wandered around the room, recalling Wanda's presence in every corner.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

When he entered the bedroom, Wanda's purple camisole was still on the bed, her scent filling the room.

Carlisle closed his eyes and let out a breath before whispering, "Wanda... I'll bring you back in no time!"

His eyes were filled with determination.

"Shein, Zachary, you both look down on me, don't you? In that case, I'll show you what I've got," Carlisle murmured before taking out his phone to call Leon.

"Mr. Zahn-"

"Get me some suits," Carlisle abruptly interrupted Leon.

"No problem."

Leon offered some styles and brands for Carlisle to choose from, but Carlisle left the decision to Leon, trusting his expertise.

After the call, Carlisle went to a high-end hair salon in the city and spent five hundred dollars on a trendy hairstyle.

Then, he called Logan, informing him that Govan Technology Limited must launch its first phone in two months.

Sitting in her apartment, Logan exclaimed in shock, "Two months? That's too rushed! Our system is still a prototype. Most of the software is still in development, and the hardware is far from ready!"

"Downgrade it," Carlisle said calmly, looking at his reflection in the mirror at the hair salon.

"Downgrade?"

Logan didn't get it.

"Yes. Downgrade all functions and hardware of the phone. As long as the phone surpasses the other phones available on the market, I don't mind if it doesn't meet our expectations," Carlisle elaborated, eager to make profits so he would surpass Zachary, Austin, Shein, and Yuriel.

"Mr. Zahn, are you under some kind of stress?" Logan asked cautiously.

However, Carlisle ended the call without offering any explanation.

Sighing helplessly, Logan made a call to her secretary.

"Ms. Cooper-"

"Notify all department heads of a meeting at 8:00 am tomorrow. Everyone must arrive on time!" Logan instructed directly.

"Yes, Ms. Cooper!" the secretary replied.

Carlisle returned to his apartment and phoned Francis.

"Boss-"

"Return to Riverland."

"Roger."

Without delay, Francis embarked on an overnight trip back to Riverland.

Carlisle lay on his bed and stared at Wanda's pillow beside him, feeling as though she also lay there, her innocent eyes gazing at him. With a gentle smile, he soon drifted off to sleep.

The next morning, Carlisle woke up with a start.

"Wanda!"

His face was covered in sweat, his heart racing.

He had a nightmare. In his dream, Wanda was locked in a cage by Shein and was forced to marry someone else. He called out to her, but she didn't seem to recognize him.
