Back to the Past: Breaking the Love Spell



Ivan was drunk, so Seth's sudden outburst startled him.

"What... what do you mean?"

"Who did you say sold the Heavenly Sword?" Seth asked, putting down his glass.

Ivan looked at Seth in surprise.

"His name is Carlisle. Scar, do you know him?"

Seth was from Riverland and had been associated with the infamous Heath. Although Heath was no longer around, Seth had seen a lot in his time.NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

"He's the guy my boss reports to," Seth said, shocking Ivan.

"What? He's the guy behind Heath Group?"

Carlisle was only 18. There was no way he could be Heath's boss. Ivan thought Seth must be joking.

"Our boss has woken up and is staying with Carlisle," Seth said as a cold smile formed on his lips.

"He will soon lead us back to Riverland to reclaim everything that's rightfully ours."

Ivan felt his jaw drop. He thought the reason Seth was in Rainville was because Heath was gone, and his followers were scattered. But now it turned out that Heath was alive and staying at Carlisle's house in Rainville.

Seth patted Ivan's shoulder.

"Do a good job, and I'll find a way to get you closer to Heath."

"Don't worry, Scar. I'll do my best!"

Ivan quickly poured another drink for Seth.

He had tried to make his way on the streets before, but he had never quite made it. He was untouchable to students, but he was just another small fry in the real underground.

After his wife fell pregnant, he left that life behind and became a family man. Then Seth came along, and Ivan's life took a turn.

Seth had effortlessly crushed several local gangs in Rainville and, after bonding with Ivan at his internet cafe, handed over control of Rainville's underground to him. Ivan had consulted his wife and in-laws, who supported his decision to take on the new role.

Going back to his old ways had its perks. Most of the internet cafes and arcades in Rainville paid Ivan protection money. Anyone who wanted to open a new one had to get his

permission. It was as simple as handing him a small fee.

Ivan saw no reason to turn down easy money, especially with Seth backing him up.

But now things were different. Seth had an even bigger supporter.

"By the way," Seth began.

"Gordon's Value Mart outside the Franklin Complex is owned by Carlisle's parents. Make sure your men look after their business."

Ivan grinned.

"Got it, Scar. I'll let the boys know right away!"

Even if Seth hadn't mentioned it, Ivan had already planned to do that. He pulled out his phone to call his right-hand man, but the phone rang before he could dial the number. It was Karen.

"Karen, what's up?" Ivan answered, sounding a little impatient.

He didn't like Karen very much. She often caused trouble by leveraging her connection to him, and he often had to pull strings to get her out of jail.

"Ivan, someone hit me! You have to come and help me take revenge!" Karen cried.

"People wouldn't beat you up for no reason. Have you been causing trouble again?"

He knew Karen well. She was a bully without any real skills, so he figured she probably deserved to be beaten up.

"I didn't do anything! They sold expired products. When I complained, they got angry and attacked me. You have to come quickly, or they'll kill me!" she cried.

"Where are you?"

Ivan was an orphan and owed a lot to Karen's family in the past. If Karen was really in trouble, he felt obligated to help her.
