Chapter 128
After that, Carlisle, Sunny, and Francis strolled along Rhonwen Road. Sunny took down the phone numbers of listings for sale or rent.
Then, they returned to Premier Properties. Carlisle signed the six contracts before heading to the bank to transfer 890 thousand dollars to Bill’s account. It was 3:00 pm by the time they were done dealing with all
the necessary procedures.
Sunny asked Bill for 20 thousand dollars–that was his commission. Bill reluctantly went to the safe to
retrieve the cash.
On their way back to the game studio, Sunny gave the money to Carlisle. “I’ll return this to you, boss.”
Carlisle could’ve signed the contracts with Bill, but he’d given him the chance instead. The money
shouldn’t have been his.
“But why? This is what you deserve. Carlisle pushed the money back.
“Premier Properties has already taken 20 thousand dollars in commission–those units should’ve only cost 850 thousand dollars in total. I’m giving you these 20 thousand dollars to cut your losses,” Sunny
explained helplessly.
“Yeah, yeah. Look, you don’t have to be so polite to me. What’s meant to be yours should be yours. It’s better for you to get the money than for Bill to get it, alright?”
“Well… okay.” Sunny cautiously put the money away.
Carlisle leaned back and fell into deep thought as he stared out the window. Riverwatch District’s property prices were much lower than he’d expected. He’d probably be able to earn about 80 million. dollars once he sold the units in three days. Then, he’d have enough to start up the studio.
However, he still needed money for research and development, as well as the manufacturing of customized equipment. That would be a considerable sum. He still had a long way to go if he wanted to develop his very own phone brand!
Just then, his phone pinged with a notification from MSN messenger. It was from Wanda.
Wanda: “Have you taken the afternoon off, Carlisle?”
Carlisle: “Yep!”
Wanda: “What’s wrong? Is something bothering you?”
Carlisle: “No.”
Wanda: “Then why are you so cold?”
Carlisle: “I’m still busy with something right now.”
Wanda: “Don’t forget that you owe me a smoothie. Remember to buy me one after class later!”
Chapte: 128
Carlisle: “I don’t think I have the time for that today. Maybe we can take a rain check on that.”
Wanda: “Alright, then. You go do your thing.”
Carlisle shut his eyes after ending the conversation. He didn’t know how to handle his and Wanda’s
relationship at this point. If they were to continue seeing each other, Zachary would probably do
something to harm his parents. But he was unsure if he wanted to break things off with Wanda.
“Do you have a a cigarette, Sunny?” he asked with his
with his eyes still shut.
“I don’t smoke.” Sunny patted Fran
on the shoulder. “How about you, Francis?”
Francis kept one hand on the wheel as he stuffed his lighter into his box of cigarettes. He’d already
smoked half of them. Then, he threw the whole thing into the back seat.
Carlisle lit one and took a few drags. This was his first time smoking since being reborn. His heart was in
a mess.
He thought he could make a fortune based on his memories of his previous life and that he and Wanda could be together forever. He never would’ve expected to be under such pressure from Wanda’s family.
Meanwhile, back at Riverland University, Wanda had slumped on her table, feeling down. Just then, Susan appeared at the entrance to the classroom with a few middle–aged men in white shirts.
Everyone fell silent. Wanda turned to look at them, and her heart clenched when she saw that. Susan approached her, looking like she had mixed feelings. She said softly, “Wanda, the dean wants to have you
transferred to Class 2.”
