As soon as Carlisle stood up, Wanda followed sult.


    Susan smiled <b>and </b>said, “You can both go.”


    Carlisle nodded and brought Wanda to Peter’s office with him.


    When they reached Peter’s office, Carlisle knocked on the door.


    “Come in!” Peter’s voice rang out from inside.


    Carlisle pushed the door open and went in.


    He saw Gareth sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed.


    Beside him was Max and… Hank?


    “Hank?”


    Hank smiled slightly.


    Carlisle said in <b>surprise</b>, “What are you doing here?”


    The next moment, he realized theputer expert Gareth had engaged was Hank.


    “You two know each other?” Gareth looked curiously at both of them.


    Hank rubbed his nose. “I’m working for Carlisle!”


    Gareth turned to look at Max. Surprise and confusion shed in Max’s eyes.


    Wasn’t Hank theputer genius who was unwilling to work under anyone?


    <i>Why</i>


    would he be willing to work with Carlisle, who had just be an adult?


    Gareth’s lips twitched. “Did I just spend 100 thousand to employ someone working for Carlisle to check.

    Hank frowned as well. “Does this have anything to do with Carlisle?”


    Gareth nodded and pointed at Wanda, who was standing beside Carlisle. He said, “His little girlfriend is


    the victim.”


    Hank’s expression darkened at once. “I’ll pay the 100 thousand back to you!”


    He had been obsessed with smart systemstely. After they hade up with a prototype and carried


    out a simtion on theputer, the entire R&D department exploded with excitement.


    That feeling of amazement made him feel as if he had traveled to the future.


    They firmly believed that Carlisle’s phone would take the world by storm.


    The amount of money it would earn in the <b>future </b>was unimaginable.


    That was why Hank thought of Carlisle as a benefactor.


    He had recognized Hank at just the right time!


    In return, Hank was willing to offer his technical expertise to Carlisle.


    He just hadn’t expected Carlisle not toe to him when he needed help.


    It had been Gareth, a rich heir he had met online two years ago, who had contacted him.


    He could not ept the 100 thousand, or else Carlisle would owe Gareth a favor.


    “We can’t do that. Spilled water can’t be gathered up again, can it?” Gareth said firmly. He was determined to do Carlisle a favor.

    Hank looked thunderous and tried to fight back, but Carlisleughed and said, “That’s enough. Hurry up and check it. After all, you’re a pretty busy man!”


    It was now 9:00 am. Gareth and Max had brought Hank to school at such an early hour, which showed they prioritized Carlisle’s affairs. He had to ept their efforts.


    Although Hank worked for him, Gareth had still spent 100 thousand dors to bring him here.Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.


    Wasn’t it a win–win situation to have both of them on his side?


    As for the favor that he now owed Gareth, it was only for the sake of bringing them closer together.


    Carlisle needed him, <b>too</b>.


    Hank acted fast. He looked at Peter and said, “Mr. Smith, where’s theputer?”


    Peter said, “It’s still at the stadium. Mr. Spencer has a few people guarding it there!”


    Hank nodded and said, “I’ll go over and have a look right now!”


    Carlisle was exasperated.


    Why had they called him here when they hadn’t even started checking it?


    Wasn’t this just disrupting his sses?


    Gareth asked, “Carl, do you want to go with us<b>?</b>”


    He shook his head. “I still need to go to ss. Just tell me the result after you’ve checked it!”


    Garethughed awkwardly. “I shouldn’t have called you over here!”


    Carlisle nced at the time. ss was about to end, and the next period was <b>a </b>self–study period. “Since we’re here, why don’t we get some smoothies together?”


    Gareth smiled slightly and said to Max, “Max, I’ll leave this to you. I hope we can find the <b>culprit </b>today!”


    “Okay, I’ll do my best!” Max walked off without hesitating.


    Things had almost fallen apart because of himst night, and he no <b>longer </b>tried to intervene in the affairs


    between Carlisle and Gareth.


    Carlisle brought Wanda and Gareth to Papplewick Tea Shop.


    Wanda ordered strawberry juice.


    She wanted it iced, but Carlisle changed her order to a warm one, which made her sulk for a long time.


    The three of them sat near the window. Carlisle sipped a vani smoothie as he said, “Let’s get straight to the point. Have you considered it thoroughly?”
