Back to the Past: Breaking the Love Spell ( Carlisle Zahn ) Novel

Chapter 620

Whiron International was a sizeable, comprehensive investment group that focused on real estate, travel, construction materials, general merchandise, import and export trade, and many other areas. The company was at least among the top ten in Yorksle.

Tyler became the vice CEO of Whiron International when he was around 30, demonstrating his capability.

Tyler shook Carlisle's hand, smiled, and said, "I had some urgent business to take care of at the office, so I was slightly delayed. I'm sorry to keep you waiting."

Theodore had asked him to humor Carlisle, whom he had described as a businessman. He had said that Carlisle was the Spencers' benefactor.

Tyler was very confused. The Spencers had always been the ones helping others, and he wondered when the tables had turned.

When Tyler kept asking about it, Theodore told him to ask Gareth. After calling Gareth, the latter told him about what had happened with Scarlet Corporation. He was also informed that Carlisle was young.

Tyler had assumed that such a talented businessman would be at least 24 or 25 years old. He was surprised to see that Carlisle only looked to be around 17 or 18. He questioned if Carlisle was really as amazing as Gareth claimed he was.

"We just got here. We haven't been waiting long," Carlisle said politely, smiling.

Tyler clapped him on the arm heartily and said, "Let's go and eat! Gareth treats you as a close friend, so I won't stick to formalities. Let's have a drink later."

Carlisle introduced Tyler to Francis and Hank when they reached the VIP room.

Tyler didn't put on any airs, either. He raised his glass and clinked it with theirs.

When he noticed Hank distracted, Tyler asked in a low voice, "What's the matter with your friend?"

Carlisle pressed his lips together and laughed.

"Just minutes before you got to the hotel, he had his heart broken."

Tyler was at a loss for words.

He raised a glass to Hank and said, "Hank, it's not a big deal. It's just the end of a relationship. Haven't you heard that the wise don't fall in love? Men should focus on their careers!"

"Is that why you're still single at 33, Mr. Duvall?" Jasmine asked teasingly.

"You're a young woman. You won't understand this kind of thing. I'm just responsible and career-driven, alright?"

"You can continue staying single, then," Jasmine muttered, her lip curling.

She was already 27 years old. She wondered why he had reduced her to a young woman. If he weren't the vice CEO, she would have punched him.

Tyler didn't bring Theodore up during the meal. Carlisle tactfully did not ask.

At 2:00 pm, the meal ended. Tyler looked slightly tipsy.

He said, "Carlisle, I've got to thank you for what you did for Gareth..."

"Mr. Zahn, Mr. Duvall, I've got to get going."

Hank waved at them, picked up his backpack, and left.

"I'll send Mr. Quilton off."

Jasmine stood up and followed him out.

Francis could see that Tyler was about to talk business with Carlisle, so he got up and said, ' I'm going out for a smoke."

Everyone left the room.

Carlisle smiled mysteriously and said, "Gareth and I met because of fate. After that, we started working closely in business, and he helped me a lot. It means that we truly were fated to be friends!"

"You got that through fortune-telling?"

Tyler had gone to university in the 90s. He never bought into these mystic arts, but the incident with Gareth made it hard for him to disbelieve.

"Yes!" Carlisle nodded and did not explain further.

Tyler rubbed his hands together and asked rather awkwardly, "Could you help me find out when I'll be married, Mr. Zahn?"
