Back to the Past Breaking the Love Spell (Carlisle Zahn) novel Chapter 265

Chapter 265 

Carlisle’s response was as blunt as it was brutal

Daniel’s smile slipped from his face. What, is it because of my looks?” 

Carlisle chuckled and said, No, you’re actually pretty goodlooking.” 

Then why do you make it sound like my looks are my downfall?Daniel demanded in puzzlement

Rolling his eyes, Carlisle pointed out, Because looks aren’t all that matters.” 

I’m rich too, if that helps. Aren’t chicks into rich and handsome men?Daniel asked in exasperation

Not all of them,Carlisle said solemnly. You’d be surprised that most of them value love more than anything else. If you’re serious about Christine, you could try and pursue her.” 

In an era where the Internet had yet to become advanced, love was a straightforward matter and untainted by worldly views

Once the internet started gaining traction alongside modern movies and novels, women might have different standards for love

When that happened, women would either fantasize about fictional men or envision themselves as the 

lead character of a romance novel or movie

In all fairness, not all women would develop such outlandish expectations, at least not in the present age

More importantly, the women in this present age might not even want love. Some of themlike Sarah- 

might seek material comfort instead

Birds of a feather flocked together, as the saying went. Sarah and Sienna were more likely than not to 

want the same things out of a relationship

Daniel swallowed a mouthful of oatmeal and said with determination, I’ll convince Christine to go out 

with me.He then grinned mischievously at Carlisle as he asked, Would you mind passing her a note for 

me?” 

Carlisle countered dryly, Where’s the romance in that? She might think you lack sincerity if you have me 

deliver the note for you. Do it yourself if you’re serious about pursuing her.” 

Daniel froze. Really? Butwho even delivers their own love notes these days?” 

Why are you following the masses?Carlisle argued, Everyone has their own way of dealing with 

romance. And if you want to show your sincerity at all, you should deliver the note yourself!” 

Fine, then,Daniel acceded. He thought Carlisle made a rather good point

He was already thinking about the content he would put into that note and how he could deliver it to Christine without humiliating himself

That afternoon, Lawrence rallied the students for a hiking trip

The military training that morning had left the students exhausted; and now, they wouldn’t stop moaning as they trudged their way up the mountain

To commemorate the occasion, Lawrence took a photo of the students with a camera he had borrowed. They did not begin their descent until it was around 6:00 pm

The drive back to Riverland University was quiet. Most of the students had fallen into a deep slumber from exhaustion

It was at that moment that Carlisle received a call from Sean. Carlisle, sorry about yesterday. I got caught up with some stuff, but I’m free to drop by your place later.” 

That’s fine by me,Carlisle replied

After hanging up the phone, he closed his eyes and slept

It was past 8:00 pm when the students reached campus

Carlisle dragged his aching and exhausted body to the dorm. Having washed up and put on a change of 

clothes, he wrote a check and went out of campus to meet with Sean

They agreed to meet at a nearby diner. After ordering a couple of things off the menu, Carlisle handed 

Sean the check and said, We’re racing against time here, so get the job done as soon as possible.” 

Sean reached for the check with both hands, his grip tentative as he stared at the figure. He swore his
