Back to the Past: Breaking the Love Spell



Chapter 548

Luna's line of secret admirers could reach Yorksle. Yet, a man had actually ignored her. Queenie doubted that it was true.

Moreover, Luna was angry that a man had ignored her. Queenie felt that Luna wouldn't feel that way unless she was interested in him.

With that in mind, Queenie chuckled and asked, "Is that guy from our university? Could it be Jason Yaxley?"

Jason was a sports major and the current president of the Riverland University Basketball Association. He was tall and handsome, the dream guy of many girls, and a classmate of

Luna.

Luna pouted.

"Of course not! I don't have any feelings for guys like Jason!" Queenie froze.

"So, you have feelings for the guy who just ignored you?"

As she spoke, she noticed the yellow Ferrari parked not far away. She questioned if it was Gareth's car.

Queenie instantly figured out who Luna was referring to.

"Oh, stop asking so many questions. Let's go shopping for clothes!" exclaimed Luna as she blushed furiously.

She then dragged Queenie toward the mall.

Carlisle also went out shopping after he ended his call with Gareth. Pennmart was the largest department store in Riverland. Carlisle, accompanied by Francis, headed to the largest tobacco and liquor specialty store on the first floor.

"Boss, has my order arrived?"

Carlisle had pre-ordered two cases of 1988 Smirnoff and five boxes of Ghurka Royal cigars. "Yes, it has. It arrived yesterday."

The shop owner smiled as he fetched a case of Smirnoff from the storage room.

"The supplier only had one case. If you want the second, you'll have to wait until tomorrow night."

Carlisle furrowed his brows.

"Why wasn't I informed before this? Didn't you guarantee that you could get me two cases?"

Looking embarrassed and unsure, the shop owner replied, "This drink is very scarce, and it is quite expensive. You didn't leave a deposit. I was worried you might back out."

Carlisle didn't want to argue with him about it and replied, "Fine. One case will do. Where are my cigars?"

"Just a moment!"

The shop owner went back to the storage room and returned with two Ghurka Royal cigars. He glanced nervously at Carlisle and awkwardly said, "We're currently out of stock. Both of these cigars are from the store's inventory."

Carlisle narrowed his eyes at the shop owner.

"Is it really out of stock, or did you sell it to someone else?"

The shop owner replied somewhat anxiously, "It's truly out of stock. In this line of business, reputation is everything. We wouldn't dare deceive our customers."

Carlisle nodded upon seeing his earnest behavior.

"Alright. I'd like to pay."

"Each bottle of Smirnoff is 16 thousand dollars. Four bottles are 64 thousand.

"A Ghurkha Royal cigar is 30 thousand dollars per cigar, so two cigars are 60 thousand. I'll round it off, so it'll be 120 thousand dollars."

Carlisle placed his bank card on the counter.

"Card payments are fine, right?"

In this era, most shops couldn't process card payments, but high-end tobacco and liquor specialty stores usually had POS machines. The shop owner retrieved a POS machine from the drawer and processed the payment.

Francis watched dazedly.

Smirnoff was a renowned brand of liquor. Selling an 88-year-old Smirnoff for 16 thousand dollars was understandable, but he felt the cost of the cigars was too much.

"30 thousand dollars per cigar? Are they made of fucking gold or something?" Francis thought.

Carlisle then went to a wellness store where he ordered nearly 100 thousand dollars worth of goods. It took two trips for them to load all the gifts into the car.All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

At that moment, Gareth had reached Imperial Hotel. The sofa was full of premium foreign liquors and health supplements. There were also three Ghurka Royal cigars and several pieces of valuable jewelry and gold.

"This is less than half a million dollars. Does it seem too stingy of me?"

Gareth rubbed his chin, deep in thought. He planned to go out again to find better gifts.
