Back to the Past Breaking the Love Spell (Carlisle Zahn) novel Chapter 33

Chapter 33 

Carlisle clenched–his teeth and bought three phones straight. 

Observing Carlisle’s generosity with the money, Sean decided to indulge himself and bought one as well. 

During that time, SIM cards did not require any form of Identification. So, Carlisle bought three phone cards directly. 

As they exited, the store manager gifted them water bottles and umbrellas. 

Just as they stepped out of the phone shop, Carlisle suddenly felt a pang of regret. 

He remembered that the technology for mobile phones would advance rapidly in the coming years. 

He shouldn’t have bought such an expensive phone. 

Then, he quickly rationalized that the money he had was an unexpected fortune. 

In his previous life, he had been negligent, failing to adequately support his parents. He resolved to make amends in this lifetime. 

Carlisle rode his bike to the market and purchased a substantial amount of high–quality produce. 

He didn’t return home until nine in the morning. 

Hilda sat on the couch, engrossed in her handiwork. 

Seeing Carlisle arrive with bags of groceries, she smiled and remarked, “Oh, it seems like my son has really grown up. He even knows how to buy groceries now!” 

It was intended as a jest, but Carlisle chastised himself internally. 

Other teenagers his age were capable of doing household chores like laundry and cooking by the time they were juniors in high school. 

However, Carlisle had already graduated from high school. Yet this was the first time he bought groceries for the family. 

“I’m eighteen now. I’m already an adult!” 

Carlisle placed the groceries on the table. Then, he picked up the white cell phone gift box and walked to the couch. “Mom, I got you a gift!” 

eyes widened when she saw the exquisite Motorola cell phone image on the gift box, “Is this… a 

cell phone?” 

It wasn’t just any cell phone; it was a high–end brand, Motorola! 

Gordon’s older brother, Gerard, had bought a Motorola last year. They had heard it cost over 3000 dollars. 

Even after a year of manual labor, Hilda couldn’t afford such a phone! 

Carlisle had foreseen Hilda’s reaction. He explained, “I sold a piece of equipment in the game last night 

for over 30 thousand dollars!: 

“How much?” Hilda repeated. She thought she had misheard and accidentally dropped the cell phone 

components. 

“30 thousand dollars!” 

Carlisle placed the 20 thousand dollars he had set aside on the old coffee table. 

He didn’t dare disclose the actual amount of 80 thousand dollars. 

After all, he had already given Sean twenty thousand and spent over 10 thousand on the phones. 

80 thousand dollars seemed like an immense amount to Hilda now. 

He feared she might not be able to handle it. 

Hilda gazed at the stack of crisp hundred–dollar bills, her breathing slightly agitated. 

It took her a moment to compose herself. She fixed her gaze on Carlisle and asked sternly, “Carlisle, 

where did this money come from?” 

“I got it from selling game equipment!” 

“Nonsense. What kind of game equipment could sell for so much money?” 

Hilda clearly doubted his explanation. 

Carlisle had no choice but to keep explaining about The Legendary Tale to Hilda. He even took out his phone and had Hilda call Sean to confirm. 

Sean exaggerated the story even further. “Aunt Hilda, Carlisle is telling the truth. We even sold the equipment at a discount. Originally, it could have been sold for 50 thousand dollars!”
