Back to the Past: Breaking the Love Spell

Chapter 379

Sarah nearly lost her temper. She couldn’t believe Gareth could be so rude as to condescend to her like this. How could anyone with zero emotional intelligence and

decorum like him be a successful businessman?

He must have inherited the company from his father or grandfather. That had to be it.

At the thought of this, Sarah did not bother concealing the scorn in her eyes as she

asked softly, “Do you think I’m too young to be a worthy connection, Mr. Spencer?”

“At least you figured that out for yourself,” Gareth said, crossing his legs as he shot

her an indifferent glance.

When Max looked into Carlisle’s background, he had taken notes on a couple of

worthwhile instances from the latter’s high school life.

One of them had been his failed romantic pursuit of Sarah, who had played Carlisle

for a fool.

“It’s impressive how you’ve curated the most popular wine in the nation at such a young age, and I believe you’re a role model for aspiring entrepreneurs like us.

“I approached you in hopes of learning about your experience and your take on the

business world.”

“Guess you’re in for a disappointment, then. I inherited the company, so I have no worthy experience to speak of,” Gareth drawled, not sounding very apologetic at all.

He had seen the scorn in her eyes earlier. She obviously thought of him as an unrefined, philandering sción. He might as well act the part.

“In that case, I’m sorry for bothering you. Have a good evening, Mr. Spencer,” Sarah said in a clipped tone as she turned on her heels and left.
