Back to the Past: Breaking the Love Spell



Chapter 701

"Apart from those who know Carlisle, everyone pretty much ignored him!" Sienna couldn't help giggling.

She said in a snarky tone, "Wasn't he acting all cocky? He's the owner of a Rolls Royce, after all. Why didn't anyone clap for him?"

Yuriel smiled slightly. "Mr. Zahn is one of the up-and-coming entrepreneurs of Riverland. It's probably his first time attending a charity gala. Is there anything you would like to say to everyone?"

Carlisle took the mic from Yuriel and smiled as he said, "I will donate ten million and ten thousand dollars to Riverland Charity Foundation on behalf of Aurora Holdings!"

There were speakers in all four corners of the banquet hall. Carlisle's young but deep voice was magnified through the speakers and echoed in the banquet hall. Everyone present heard it very clearly.

Silence fell at once. One could have heard a pin drop.

Most of the entrepreneurs who were present looked shocked.

The younger entrepreneurs' eyes bulged as they stared at Carlisle in disbelief.

Sarah and Sienna felt as if their brains had ceased to function. Their jaws dropped so widely that one could have stuffed an egg in their mouths.

Sarah recovered very quickly. She turned pale and shook her head, and her voice trembled as she said, "That's impossible.... It can't be possible... H-how could he possibly be able to donate ten million?"

Austin had earned about 20 million dollars by trading, and he had given her ten million to start up her business. After that, he earned another ten million, which was why he bought her a Porsche.

However, Austin had lost all his money last week, including interest. He only had eight million dollars left in his personal account and had just donated three million. If Yuriel hadn't given him three million, Austin would only have five million left.

Sarah only had two million left out of the ten million she received to fund her business. Austin and Sarah's assets combined only amounted to about seven million dollars.

However, Carlisle had donated ten million and ten thousand in one go.

He had donated much more than Shein and Yuriel.

Sarah bit her lip and felt that she had a fool of herself when she was mocking Carlisle just now. She was like a total clown.

Sienna laughed coldly. "Sarah, I suspect that Carlisle's check is fake. Let's ask Mr. Gust to verify it."

She and Sarah were on the same boat, so whenever she met Carlisle, she would say a few cutting words to him. She could not accept how rich Carlisle was.

Sarah's eyes dimmed. She looked bitter as she said, "I remember now. Carlisle has the two hundred million dollars that Mr. Spencer invested."

Sienna's eyes widened, and she said, "Now that you mention it, I remember too! Mr. Spencer invested two hundred million in Dragonaire Studio, didn't he?"

"Yes..." Sarah nodded.

"That company has been soaring in popularity lately. They seem to have developed a game called... Journey Games? The guys at our college talk about it every day." Sienna wrinkled her nose and looked displeased.

She said, "I'm worried Carlisle's Dragonaire Studio will develop and progress well."

"I don't believe he'll keep having such good luck!" Sarah said coldly.

Yuriel was the richest man in Riverland, after all. He would not lose his composure just because Carlisle had donated so much more than he had. When Carlisle announced that he was donating ten million and ten thousand dollars, Yuriel's brow only furrowed slightly. Carlisle produced a check with the amount written on it and flashed it briefly at the cameras of the media reporters present. After that, he put the check into the charity box.

Yuriel gathered himself and smiled brightly. He complimented Carlisle. "Mr. Zahn has shown great character and responsibility at such a young age. As the richest man in Riverland, he puts me to shame!"

His smile dropped, and he said in a reprimanding tone as if he were talking to a child, "I do have something I would like to correct. You are donating ten million and ten thousand dollars on behalf of Aurora Holdings as well as all affiliated companies under Aurora Holdings."

"One must always keep their word. I said that the ten million and ten thousand were given as a representative of Aurora Holdings, so it means that it is only on behalf of Aurora Holdings." Carlisle emphasized the word "only".

Yuriel's eyes gleamed. "What do you mean by that, Mr. Zahn?"

"Aurora Holdings' affiliate, Alumni Network, will donate one million!"noveldrama

"Aurora Holdings' affiliate, Dragonaire Studio, will donate one million!"

"Aurora Holdings' affiliate, Xenos Technology, will donate one million!" "Aurora Holdings' affiliate, Govan Technology, will donate one million!"
