Back to the Past: Breaking the Love Spell

When Hilda turned around, she discreetly wiped her tears away.

Witnessing this, Carlisle felt another pang in his heart. He clenched his fists.

In his heart, he vowed that his parents would be proud of him when his SATs results were released.

At the dining table, Gordon took out the unfinished wine he had served Gerard!

ime.

“You’re an adult now, and you’ve finished your SATS. Have a drink with your old man!”

“There’s beer in the fridge, so just drink beer. Why are you drinking wine?” Hilda glared at Gordon with annoyance. Then, she walked to the fridge and grabbed a bottle beer.

The father and son drank together, chatting intermittently.

Gordon didn’t mention a word about Carlisle’s entrance exam.

After a few drinks, Gordon suddenly asked, “Son, if you don’t pass the exam, are you planning to retake it or pursue a skill?”

To Gordon, it was necessary to have a good talk with Carlisle even though this question would hurt his

pride.

Carlisle drank half a glass of beer. He replied confidently, “There’s no Ifs. I’ll pass for sure!”

Gordon stared at Carlisle with slightly reddened eyes. Seeing his son’s confident expression, he

swallowed the rest of his words.

Gordon raised his glass and said heartily, “Let’s not talk about it anymore. Let’s drink,”

“You two, take it easy on the drinks,” Hilda said with her head lowered as she sipped the tomato soup.

After Carlisle finished his beer, he announced, Dad, I’ve made plans with Sean to play basketball!*

Gordon waved his hands. “Go ahead. Youngsters should stay active!”

“I might stay over at his place,” Carlisle added.

Gordon asked, “Won’t you be disturbing his family?”

“No. His parents are usually at the store!” With these words, Carlisle left the house.

Hilda sighed softly and set her spoon down. “He’s probably going with Sean to surf the internet!”

“The SATs are over, let him be. He’s not a child anymore!”

Gordon munched on some nuts.

Although they had revised with Carlisle all this time, they weren’t strict with him.

In fact, they even pampered him.

Chapte

Before Carlisle, they had another child.

Tragically, that child was taken away just a month after birth.

During that time, their world was veiled in darkness.

In this era of limited information, it was almost impossible to find the person who took the child away.

When Carlisle was born two years later, they poured all their love into their son.

Meanwhile, Carlisle rode his bike to an abandoned grain center.

As soon as he locked his bike, someone tapped him on the shoulder from behind.

“Hey, Carl…”

Carlisle turned to see a boy about his age. The boy had a cigarette behind his ear. His hair covered almost

half of his face.

It was Kade Zimmer, Hayley’s son. He was expelled in the second year of high school due to fighting.

Later, he was transferred to a vocational school.

In Carlisle’s memory of his previous life, Xavier would impregnate a female classmate the next semester, Thus, he would be expelled from school again.

In the next few years, Kade would hang out with delinquents and neglect his studies. Eventually, he would

receive a six–year prison sentence for multiple robberies and causing injury.

Despite all this, Carlisle harbored no ill feelings toward Kade. In fact, he admired him.

One day, about three years later, Gordon got drunk and got into a conflict with someone.

The other party threatened to teach Gordon a lesson with a bunch of gangsters. Kade immediately called a group of his friends to help out.

Fortunately, Gordon became scared and vehemently opposed any escalation to violence.

“You ran out of money for the internet again, right?” Carlisle asked as he pocketed his bike keys..

In his previous life, Kade had shown kindness to Carlisle’s father.

In this life, Carlisle would change Kade’s future and steer him away from prison.

“How’d you guess?” Kade chuckled, scratching his head. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

“If you had money, would you be standing outside?”

Kade faked a cough. “Money’s been tight lately. Is Sean coming?”

“No need to wait for him. Let’s go, I’ll treat you to the internet. But next time you get caught, don’t use me as a cover again.”
