Back to the Past: Breaking the Love Spell

Chapter 8 Carlisle took the college application form from his backpack and handed it to Hilda. Upon examining the application form, Hilda frowned and commented, "You little rascal, you actually wrote Riverland University?" Gordon's tone turned displeased. "What do you mean? Isn't my son qualified for Riverland University?" "I didn't mean that. What I meant is he could have selected a few more schools!" "What? He only filled in one school?* Gordon snatched the application form and glanced at it. Suddenly, his body stiffened.

Goodness! Carlisle only wrote Riverland University. So, does that mean he was only considering Riverland University? Encouraging him was one thing, but reality was another matter. He didn't believe that Carlisle could get into Riverland University.

Carlisle swallowed his food carefully and said cautiously, "Dad, don't you believe inanymore?" Gordon took a deep breath while he placed the application form on the table. He said earnestly, "Why don't you reconsider?" His father just swore t Carlisle's mouth twitched a few times. support him. How hypocritical! Carlisle suddenly remembered the twhile he was sick. His father had frequently coughed and occasionally had difficulty breathing. He suspected his father had lung problems.

It wasn't until Carlisle was close to death that he promised to quit smoking.

"Dad, let's make a bet. If I get into Riverland University, you'll quit smoking." Carlisle suggested.

"Quit smoking?" Gordon couldn't help but shiver as he remembered the three months he had quit smoking to buy Carlisle a bicycle. He continued, "You should change the bet." Carlisle sneered. "Do you not have the courage to take on the bet?" Gordon was agitated and responded, "Let's bet then! If you get into Riverland University, I will quit both smoking and drinking!" Carlisle smirked triumphantly.

Gordon cut in sharply, "Look at you now! You're acting as if you're really going to get into Riverland University!" Hilda pinched Gordon's arm hard and asked, "Who was the one who wholeheartedly believed that he could make it?" Gordon rubbed his arm and turned to the balcony to smoke.

Carlisle then went back to his room to revise after dinner. Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, and Chapter 8 Carlisle took the college application form from his backpack and handed it to Hilda.

Carlisle then went back to his room to revise after dinner. Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, and Language were his weakest subjects. He had to focus on these.

For the next three days, Carlisle studied tirelessly. He listened attentively in every class. Once a quiet student, he now eagerly raised his hand to answer every question and could always respond fluently.

One day, Lucy wrote down the smath problem that Carlisle had first consulted Wanda about on the blackboard.

*This question is likely to appear on the SAT paper. Anyone who can solve this?" Lucy asked as she scanned the entire class, Everyone was shrinking back as they were afraid of being called upon. Lucy wasn't upset as the question. was indeed difficult. Even the class monitor, Wanda, would need sbrainpower to solve it.

"Ms. Turner, I can solve this question," Carlisle raised his hand and said confidently.

"Let Wanda solve it instead!" Lucy ignored Carlisle directly. Although Carlisle had indeed made progress these days, she didn't think he could solve such a complex equation.

"Ms. Turner, let Carlisle try it. He really can solve this question!" Wanda said confidently.

Lucy was t taken aback, then nodded and said, “Alright, Carlisle, cand solve this question." Carlisle walked to the podium and began to solve the equation with the chalk. Within less than three minutes, Carlisle had filled half of the blackboard with equations. He didn't even pause for a moment.

"Done!" Carlisle said as he put the chalk back into the chalk box. "Ms. Turner, please check if there are any mistakes!" Lucy checked his answer carefully, It turned out everything was correct without a single mistake.

She stared at Carlisle in disbelief. It was hard to imagine that a low achiever like him could solve such a question.

Lucy took a deep breath and remarked, “It seems that Wanda's tutoring has influenced you greatly!" Carlisle smiled and replied, “Thank you, Ms. Turner, for givingthis opportunity, and thank you, Wanda, for tutoringtirelessly!" A rare smile appeared on Lucy's stern face. "Well done, you can return to your seat now. I hope you can surpriseeven more in tomorrow's mock exam!" Carlisle returned to his seat. Wanda looked at the blackboard with a faint smile. She knew how much Carlisle had improved in these three days.

Sarah was also smiling. She believed that Carlisle's progress in studying was all because of her.

He liked her, so he becvery hardworking just because she told him that she wanted to go to Riverland University. That was exactly the power of her charm.

After class, Sienna sent Quentin away and sat next to Sarah. She murmured, "Sarah, it seems like Carlisle has changed!" Sarah raised her chin proudly and said, "Of course! Otherwise, how could he get into Riverland University? How could he catch up to me?" Sienna asked, "Has he talked to you these past few days?" "Can't you see he's been studying hard? Sarah rolled her eyes.

To Sienna, that meant he did not talk to Sarah for the past few days.

After a moment of silence, Sienna asked again, "Will you date him if he gets into Riverland University?" Sarah hesitated for a moment before nodding and saying, "Probably. It depends on his attitude!" Carlisle had disappointed her a lot for the past few days. Not only did he not buy her meals, he didn't even buy her snacks.

If he still had this attitude after getting into Riverland University, she definitely wouldn't accept him. But if he continued to pamper her as he used to, she might consider trying to date him. After all, Carlisle still had sgood looks. He even made it to the top ten of the senior high school heartthrob list! "By the way, who's the person who's been delivering breakfast to us mysteriously?" Sienna asked.

"Who else could it be? It must be one of my pursuers. I hate this kind of mysteriousness. Let's not accept his breakfast anymorerting tomorrow. I will let Carlisle buy us breakfast instead!" "Alright, I'll follow your lead!" Sienna replied.

The next class was physical om education. Lucy had already informed the physical education teacher to allow the students to have free activities. She believed that most people would stay revising in the classroom.

And indeed, most of the girls stayed back to study in the classroom. But most of the boys were not there. Herman was the exception. He felt weak and didn't want to stay in the sun for too long. He returned to the classroom instead.

"Herman, where's Carlisle?* "Herman, where's Carlisle?"

Herman heard two voices merging into his ears as soon as he reached the podium, First, he glanced at the class monitor Wanda. Then, he looked at Sarah sitting in the corner.

Wow, does Carl have this much charm? It was one thing for the school belle to look for him, but now even the class monitor was looking for him too! "He's playing basketball now!" Herman answered.

'Tell him to cupstairs. Just say that I need to talk to him!" Sarah commanded.

*I... I think I have a heatstroke," Herman weakly replied.

Wanda got up and asked, "Sarah, what do you need him for? I was just about to go down!" Sarah replied nonchalantly, "Farget it, I'll go down too. I want him to accompanyplaying badminton!" "Oh!" Wanda responded, then walked ahead.

Sarah followed Wanda unhurriedly. She felt a sense of crisis because of Wanda. Even though she didn't like Carlisle, she didn't want Wanda to get too close to him either.
