Back to the Past: Breaking the Love Spell

Chapter 242

“Fuck off. Believe it or not, but I’ll kill you!” the disabled man snarled, his fury palpable.

Carlisle, worried that the man might be part of a group, said, “You can deceive others, but not my girlfriend!”

The man glanced at the 20–dollar bills still in Wanda’s hand.

He gritted his teeth in frustration and said with a hint of menace, “Take your girlfriend and get out of here. Don’t let me see you again!”

With the end of the workday approaching and schools about to let out, more tourists would soon be on the island. To avoid losing his begging opportunities, he chose to back down.

As Carlisle and Wanda walked away from the tense situation, Wanda was still troubled by doubts.

“He doesn’t have legs. How could he be faking it?”

Carlisle explained, “They are trained to tuck their legs under themselves.”

He knew of the deceptive techniques that exploited sympathetic passersby, having become aware of such frauds through his experience.

Wanda was curious about Carlisle’s discernment and asked, “How did you figure it out?”

With a knowing smile, Carlisle elaborated, “He wore long pants on a sweltering day, a clear sign he was hiding something. If he were genuinely disabled, he wouldn’t have a reason to hide his legs.”

He even warned that future con artists might employ realistic prosthetics to further their deceit.

Wanda expressed her frustration, “These people are despicable. We should have exposed him right there.”
