Back to the Past Breaking the Love Spell (Carlisle Zahn)

Chapter 7

Wanda returned to the classroom just before class. Carlisle noticed she had changed into a different set of clothes. As a day student, Wanda had to go home to change clothes.

"Carlisle, thank you." Wanda buried her head and thanked Carlisle with her cheeks flushed with embarrassment. She looked adorable.

"If you really want to thank me, just help me with my studies!" Carlisle couldn't help but smile.

Wanda pursed her pink lips and said softly. "As long as you're willing to study, I will help o you!"

Carlisle was touched. There weren't many in the class who respected him.

Wanda came from a well-off family, and had good grades. Yet she didn't despise him at all. She was even willing to help him study.

At that moment, Carlisle's heart fluttered. Could it be that Wanda chose to stay at Riverland University just because of him?

Then, the thought was quickly dismissed by Carlisle. He didn't have any outstanding qualities besides his

looks.

There were plenty of people in the class who were better than him. How could someone from a wealthy family like Wanda be interested in a poor guy like him?

During their self-study session, Wanda patiently tutored Carlisle, and he studied diligently.

Whether it was because of his reincarnation or not, Carlisle realized that his mind was exceptionally

sharp. Concepts he couldn't grasp before became clear when Wanda explained them.

Wanda handed Carlisle a math test paper and said, "Complete this paper!"

"Okay!" Carlisle picked up the mineral water on the table and took a few sips.

Wanda widened her eyes and said, "Carlisle..."

"What's wrong?"

"That's mine." Wanda blushed. She had drunk half of the mineral water Carlisle bought while getting

sanitary pads.

"No wonder it's so sweet..." Carlisle licked his lips and seemingly savored the taste.

Wanda's face turned even redder, with her heart pounding fast. He drank from the same bottle she did. Wasn't this like an indirect kiss? Her face flushed, and she buried her head close to the desk. Carlisle smirked and started filling out the test paper, Interestingly, Wanda got embarrassed so easily.

Towards the end of the school day, Carlisle handed the completed test paper to Wanda. After casually scanning it, Wanda looked at Carlisle in shock and asked, "Did you cheat without me knowing?" Although she had only glanced at it briefly, she could tell that Carlisle's test paper could at least score

seventy points. Considering Carlisle had never passed a math test before, it was shocking.

"Uh, you gave me the test paper. Shouldn't the answers be with you?" Carlisle replied with a smirk.

"But you learned so quickly?"

"It's because your tutoring is excellent!"

"Is that so?" Wanda blinked as she almost believed Carlisle's nonsense.

"Yeah, that's how it is!" Carlisle nodded continuously.

Sarah was observing the scene of them laughing and chatting. She clenched her fists as she was enraged.

She knew what Carlisle was up to. He was deliberately getting close to other girls to get her attention. But did he think she would get jealous?

With a pen in his mouth, Quentin suddenly pushed his test paper towards Sarah's desk and asked, "Sarah, do you know how to solve this-?" "Get lost," Sarah interrupted.

"Oh." Quentin quickly retrieved his test paper and dared not to look at Sarah again.

After school, Wanda received a call from her father while Carlisle was packing his books.

"Wanda, I have to go abroad for a while. The driver doesn't have time to pick you up today. So, you'll have to take a car back yourself!"

"Oh, I see," Wanda responded dejectedly.

"Why are you suddenly feeling so down?" Carlisle asked while shouldering his backpack.

"My dad is going abroad again," Wanda sighed helplessly.

"You use the word "again' so well! Unlike my dad, who has never been abroad in his life!" Carlisle then

smiled wryly.

Wanda blinked her watery eyes and said, "My dad needs the car. So there's no one coming to pick me up today. Would you mind giving me a ride home?" Carlisle raised an eyebrow and responded, "I'd be honored!"

"But my house is quite far away!"

"No problem, I'm good at riding bikes!"

Carlisle and Wanda carried their backpacks and walked out of the classroom, chatting and laughing.

"Damn it, Carlisle, you're putting love over friendship! to wait for me," Sean cursed as he prepared to sweep the classroom.

Wanda followed Carlisle to the parking lot. Multiple rows of bicycles were parked there. Carlisle's bike was a mountain bike his dad bought after three months of quitting smoking. Riding bikes wasn't allowed on campus. So, Carlisle pushed his bike toward the school gate, with Wanda

walking beside him. They looked like a pair of young lovers.

"Sarah, do you think Carlisle might be falling for someone else?" Not far away, Sienna watched Carlisle and Wanda's departure and began to doubt their relationship.

"How is that possible? Wanda is known for being a good girl. She couldn't possibly be in a relationship! Besides, apart from being rich, how can she compare to me?" Sarah expressed her confidence. Although she said so, she couldn't help but feel a little doubtful too. Since yesterday, Carlisle's attitude. towards her had completely changed.

Today, he even hesitated to buy her a bottle of mineral water. This made her wonder whether she was

waiting for him to apologize or if he was waiting for her to apologize to him, But she clearly hadn't done anything wrong!

Wanda lived in the city center, approximately three miles away from the school.

Carlisle pedaled as fast as he could, almost flaring the bike chain. But it still took him more than forty minutes to get her to the neighborhood. It was summer, and Carlisle's clothes were soaked in sweat. "Carlisle, thank you." Wanda blushed and thanked him.

Carlisle grinned. "No problem, I'll head back now!"

Wanda pursed her lips and asked, "Do you want to come to my place and cool off yourself for a while?"

"Umm... No, thanks. I have to go back now. Otherwise my parents might be worried!" Carlisle politely declined Wanda's offer and quickly rode off.

Wanda watched Carlisle's figure fade in the distance, unable to take her eyes off him.

It was already dark when Carlisle got home. Gordon was smoking on the balcony with a worried expression. Meanwhile, Hilda was sitting on the old sofa in the living room, making handicrafts. "Mom, Dad, I'm home!"

"Why are you back so late? Did you go on another date with that girl?" Hilda joked as she put down her

handicraft.

Gordon walked in and asked with a stern expression, "What girl? This kid is dating already?"

"I just stayed a little longer at school to revise. Don't jump to conclusions!" By then, Carlisle noticed his dad's worried expression.

Although he was deliberately hiding it, Carlisle, who had experienced the reality of society, could still perceive the clues. At this point, his dad seemed to have lost his job.

His grandmother was suffering from uremia. Hence, she had to take medications every day. She even required dialysis now and then

Although they could still afford three meals a day, they were having a hard time to make ends meet. This time, he had to earn some money to ease his father's burden. Chapfat 7

Hilda went to the kitchen and brought out the warm dishes. "Let's eat first. Your dad personally cooked your favorite lemon butter fish!"

The lemon butter fish made by Carlisle's father was unparalleled. It was sour, zesty, and extremely delicious. Yet, there was no fish head or tail left. His parents always left the best for him. Carlisle was touched and felt like crying. To hide it, he eagerly picked up his bowl and started to wolf

down his dinner.

"Eat slowly, you brat! Be Careful not to choke on the fish bones!" Gordon laughed and scolded.

At this moment, Hilda asked, "Have you filled out your college application form?"
