Back to the Past: Breaking the Love Spell

Chapter 518

There was a knock outside his door.

"Come in," Carlisle called. The door was only closed.

Selena Johansen, the secretary to the CEO of Aurora Holdings, walked in with an armful of documents.

Selena was 31 years old.NôvelDrama.Org content.

She had studied management, economics, finance, accounting, and law. She was proficient in six languages and had once been the secretary of a listed holding company in Dell City.

Anthony had put in a lot of effort to poach her, and her salary was as high as that of a director.

"Mr. Zahn, the number of Alumni Network's users has surpassed three million!

"The lithography machines for Xenos Factor finally arrived on the coast of Dell City yesterday, and we'll start proofing in December. Mr. Scott has already given his word. Within two months, the Xenos chip will be revealed to the world.

"Holly Fisheries' greenhouse was completed three days ago, and they're currently cultivating the ecological environment.

"Dragonaire Studio's multiplayer online game is thirty percent complete. We expect to be able to launch it online for a test run in two months' time." Selena put some important documents on Carlisle's desk as she gave him a quick report about the current situation with all the companies.

Carlisle rubbed his hands, picked up his pen, and began signing

There were so many reports that he barely looked at them nowadays.

After all, before they got to him, they were checked and signed by the team leaders, managers, the CEO, as well as the executive director of the accounting department. Carlisle was only signing to authorize them.

"How is Aurora Holdings' financial situation?" Carlisle asked as he signed.

Selena pressed her red lips together. "Yesterday, Dragonaire Studio applied for 20 million in development funds. Currently, Aurora Holdings still has about 25 million in its account."

Carlisle paused in the midst of signing his name.

Selena said in a low voice, "Mr. Zahn, if Aurora Holdings is under financial stress, we can try looking for angel investors. With the current potential of Alumni Network, we should be able to get at least 500 million in investment funds!"

If it had been any other company, Selena would not have dared to say such a thing in front of the boss.

However, at their first meeting, Carlisle admitted he was new to running a business. He had encouraged Selena to mention anything he didn't know about or was doing wrong,

Carlisle smiled slightly and said, "We don't have any financial stress for now."

A while ago, Gareth had gone abroad and somehow managed to get 200 million.

He had said that it was a reserve fund for Carlisle to use.

If Aurora Holdings was in financial difficulties, he would ask Gareth to invest.

Gareth was always wandering around the accounting department, hoping fervently for Aurora Holdings' accounts to finally be emptied.

There were even rumors spreading among the company executives about something developing between Gareth and Felicia.

Carlisle finished signing the bills, and Selena left with them.

As soon as she left, Sean called. "Carl?"

Carlisle immediately said, "Alumni Network has now surpassed three million registered users!"

Sean burst into laughter, "Nothing, escapes you, Carl! Did Ms. Johansen tell you about it?" Carlisle was amused. "Of course. Ms. Johansen keeps an eye on you for me."

Sean chuckled and said, "She must not have told you I've already gotten an advertisement."

Carlisle was immediately interested. "That's very proactive of you. You've only just surpassed three million, and you're already accepting advertisements?"

"Why wouldn't I be proactive when it comes to earning money? If I wasn't, there would be something wrong with me! You'll never guess how much this advertisement will bring us." "How much?" Carlisle could not guess how much money Alumni Network would make.

He was very curious.

"See you at Caulitorna BBQ!" Sean said before hanging up.

Carlisle's curiosity had been piqued, and Sean had hung up on him. He had no choice but to laugh exasperatedly and put the photo album away, after which he called to tell Francis to come and pick him up.

Caulitorna BBQ was near Riverland University.

Sean had booked a lavish private room, and he had called Owen and Gareth as well.

When Gareth got Sean's call and heard that he was treating them to BBQ, he guessed that Alumni Network's number of registered users had met expectations. He asked, "Is Carlisle going?"

Sean said on purpose, "Carl doesn't have any time."

Gareth said impassively, "I won't go either, then."

Sean hastily laughed and said, "I'm joking! Of course Carl's coming. I wouldn't call you otherwise."

Gareth's lips quirked up. "Alright. I happen to have a present for Carl, so let's make today the day when he gets two pieces of good news."
