Chapter 115
Sarah shook her head hastily. “I never even agreed to it. I never even touched a boy’s hand when I was in
high school!”
“Well, it seems like I hit the jackpot!” Austin’s eyes sparkled with amusement. He placed his hand on Sarah’s fair, smooth leg.
Sarah blushed and lowered her head, feeling both shy and uneasy.
She was happy to be with Austin, but they had just met.
Austin’s advances made her uncertain about how to respond.
After a moment of silence, Sarah gathered her courage to grasp Austin’s wrist and tremblingly said,”
Austin, maybe we’re moving too fast…
“Hmm, perhaps we are.” Austin withdrew his hand with a smile.
He enjoyed it more when girls were willing and took the initiative.
In Francis taxi, Wanda noticed Carlisle’s worn–out slippers and said, “Carlisle, please dress a bit better
when you go out next time!”
After spending so long at the studio, he hadn’t even bothered to take a shower or change his clothes. And he still smelled like cigarettes..
Carlisle shifted uncomfortably. “I’ll remember next time. I promise!”
He was just too busy.
After bidding goodbye to Wanda, he picked up Cameron, made a trade for the “Galloping Horses painting, and attended another meeting.
Worried that Wanda might have to wait too long, he hurried to the school right after the meeting ended.

“I smell like smoke and sweat, so I was afraid you wouldn’t like it!” Carlisle said apologetically.
“I don’t mind!” Wanda scooted closer to Carlisle.
Carlisle grinned and took Wanda’s hand, placing it in his palm.
Wanda rested her head on Carlisle’s shoulder and whispered, “You don’t have to worry about anyone causing trouble for you at school anymore. We can openly date without any worries.”
Carlisle raised an eyebrow. “You already know about it?”
Wanda nodded. ‘It was Zac’s men. I’ve already talked to him.”
Carlisle chuckled and asked, “What did you tell Zachary?”
Chapter 1154
Carlisle wondered how Zachary, with his personality, had agreed so readily.
Wanda pursed her lips, choosing not to answer Carlisle’s question..
Carlisle tightened his grip on Wanda’s hand and leaned his face against her forehead, whispering, “I’ll prove myself to Zacl
He supposed Wanda had threatened Zachary with something, which made Zachary agree so readily.
It was clear that Zachary doted on Wanda. However, due to Carlisle’s appearance, she seemed to be estranged from her family.
Carlisle and Wanda waited for Lily at A1 Seafood Restaurant’s entrance. The three of them headed to a private room on the second floor.
While Wanda and Lily chatted about school, Carlisle asked, “Any dietary restrictions for you two?”
Both shook their heads.
Carlisle chose a few signature dishes and started browsing the Riverland forum on his phone.
Twitter was established in 2006, while Facebook came in 2004.
Forum websites were the primary platforms for netizens to communicate.
Particularly, platforms like Widetalk Community were hubs for talented individuals.
Many
regions had also established their own forum websites, such as the Riverland forum, where a large number of Riverland residents congregated
When Carlisle first arrived in Riverland, he registered an account on the forum.
Upon entering the forum, he immediately posted a thread seeking to purchase property in the Riverwatch District. He specified that all documents must be complete and even attached his contact number.
