Back to the Past: Breaking the Love Spell



Chapter 549

The next day, Carlisle called Sean after waking up.

"Hey, Carl," answered Sean.

"Do you want to go home together?"

"You go on ahead. I have something to do at the university, so I'll probably be late."

"Alright."

After Carlisle hung up the phone, he called Gareth, who said he would come over right away. Carlisle freshened up and packed two changes of clothes before heading out.

Carlisle bumped into Melanie and Callie when the elevator doors opened.

"Carlisle..."

Melanie's eyes brightened as she smiled and greeted him.

With a smile, Carlisle nodded.

"Hi, Melanie!"

She looked at his suitcase and asked, "Are you traveling somewhere?"

Carlisle nodded.

"I'm heading back to my hometown."

She asked curiously, "Where's your hometown?"

"Rainville."

"Oh! What a coincidence," Melanie replied, her eyes wide.

Carlisle looked surprised as well.

"You're from Rainville too?"

Melanie nodded.

"That's right. I'm from Stonebrook."

"That's pretty close by. I'm from Harveston, so I must pass through Stonebrook on the way to Rainville."

Carlisle hadn't expected Melanie's hometown to be so close to his own.

It was no wonder Stonebrook developed rapidly in recent years. It turned out that Gabriel was the reason behind it. The investors in Stonebrook wished to tap into Gabriel's connections.

Melanie was even more surprised.

"Wow! A lot of my high school classmates are from Harveston. So, did you go to Rainville High School or Rainville Beta High School?"

"Rainville High School," Carlisle replied.

"Oh!"

Melanie was surprised once again.

She then asked, "So, who was your homeroom teacher?"

Upon seeing Melanie's expression, Carlisle knew she must have graduated from the same school.

He smiled and replied, "My homeroom teacher was Lucy Turner."

Callie chuckled.

"Did you both have the same homeroom teacher?"

Melanie shook her head this time and said, "No, mine was Elise Quill. She resigned and

became a full-time housewife two years after my graduation."

Callie grinned and said, "The two of you were fated to meet!"Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

The elevator reached the first floor with a ding.

Melanie said politely, "After you, Carlisle."

"Thanks, Melanie."

He went ahead and left after thanking her.

Once Melanie and Callie stepped out of the elevator, Callie muttered softly, "Why haven't we seen his girlfriend lately? I've seen him come back alone several times."

Melanie had also paid attention to Carlisle on campus.

She replied, "His girlfriend seems to have taken a leave of absence to focus on her health."

"What's she sick with?" asked Callie.

"I'm not sure."

"Okay. Let's not talk about that. Recently, there's been a Rolls-Royce parked in our neighborhood. Rumor has it that the owner is a handsome guy in his 20s.

"Let's go try our luck today. Maybe we'll encounter love!" Callie suggested mischievously.

"Did you break up with that stingy guy?" Melanie turned her head and asked Callie.

"Yeah, we broke up. Didn't I tell you last week? What was the point of keeping him around?" Callie replied, looking annoyed as she glared at Melanie.

Melanie pretended to feel sorry for her and answered, "He was great at budgeting, yet you

rejected him. Aren't your standards too high?"

Callie glared as she said, "You think making me use a cloth instead of sanitary pads makes him good at budgeting?"

Melanie couldn't help but laugh.

"I was just kidding!"

The two continued chatting and laughing as they walked outside. They happened to see the Rolls-Royce pull out of the parking lot.

The windows were open, allowing them to glimpse Carlisle sitting in the back seat.

Callie exclaimed in shock, "Oh my God! Is that Rolls-Royce Carlisle's?"

Melanie shook her head, stunned.

"Wasn't his car a Mazda?"

Callie grabbed Melanie's arm and said excitedly, "Melanie, do you think I have a chance with

Carlisle?"

She wondered how rich Carlisle was, given that he drove a Rolls-Royce.

He was rich and handsome. Which girl wouldn't like that?
