Back to the Past: Breaking the Love Spell



Chapter 467

Carlisle shook his head and said, "It's getting late. Let's call it a night and meet again next time."

"Forget about the beer! We want the bill instead!" Gareth took out his wallet at once to pay. Sean pressed his hand down. "Gareth, what are you doing? Don't you respect me?"

Gareth swatted Sean's hand aside and took out two hundred-dollar bills. "It's the same no matter who pays. You've been working hard lately, so take it as a treat from me. Invite the other staff someday, and I'll take them to the Imperial Hotel for a big meal!"

Sean was drunk and looked annoyed as he said, "You're older than I am. I should pay for this meal!"

While they were arguing about who should pay, Carlisle had already gotten the bill and walked over to the road.

By the time the other two came out with their arms around each other, Carlisle had already finished smoking one cigarette.

Sean said tipsily, "Carl, that's not very nice of you. We asked you out for a meal. How could you get the bill?"

Francis drove the car over and stopped in front of Carlisle before getting out to open the door for him.

Carlisle got into the car and looked up at Sean as he said, "Don't get back too late. Don't make Lily worry."

"Oh, okay!" Sean nodded obediently.

Francis asked, "Should I drive them home, boss?"

Sean did not want to take up Carlisle's time, so he said quickly, "I want to sit in Gareth's Ferrari! I've never been in such an expensive luxury car before."

Gareth looked Carlisle's car up and down and said, "Carl, this car is too lousy. It doesn't fit someone of your status."

Carlisle leaned against his seat and said, "I don't have any money..."

He had been planning to get a better BMW, but funds were tight, and he had used up 100 million from Dragonaire Studio. He had decided to delay his plans of getting another car.

Francis got into the driver's seat and got ready to drive off.

Sean put a hand on his waist and waved. "Bye, Carl!"

Carlisle stared at Sean and said, "You should spoil your girlfriend, not yell at her. You need to differentiate between someone who's showing you concern and someone who's bossing

you around."

After saying his piece, he leaned against his seat and closed his eyes.

Francis saw in the rearview mirror that Carlisle had closed his eyes, which meant that he had finished speaking. He stepped on the gas pedal and drove off.

Sean watched the car's tail lights disappear into the distance. He scratched his head and said, "Why do I feel like Carl is more mature than my dad?"

Gareth patted him on the shoulder. "Let's go. I'll drive you home."

Sean's phone rang.

However, he had no intention of picking up. Instead, he said, "I've never been in a sports car. Take me out on a ride, Gareth!"

"Alright, I'll call the driver. You should take that call." Gareth took out his phone to call Max.

Sean did not want to take the call.

It was probably Lily again.

However, after thinking about what Carlisle had just said, he took out his phone.

The caller was Bart Peterson.

He was the poorest student in the dorm, and he earned some loose change by running errands for his roommates every day.

As long as the gates to the university weren't closed, he would go and help his roommates buy anything, whether rain or shine.

"What's he calling me for?" Sean muttered to himself before taking the call. "Hello, Bart? What is it?"

"Sean... S-something's happened..." Bart was stuttering, and his voice trembled.

"What's the matter? Is there a rat in the dorm again?" Sean was disdainful. There were often rats in their dorm, and Bart was scared of them, just like a sissy.

"No, I-I-I just saw your girlfriend get mugged. She was hit on the head with a hammer!" Bart was barely intelligible. He seemed to have had a huge fright.

Sean burst into laughter and said, "Are you dumb? Lily just called me! If you want to lie to me, find a better excuse. If you had said that Leonard or Fred got mugged, I might have

believed you!"

Leonard Vellon and Fred Mosby, their other roommates, often went to cybercafes. They would climb over the wall at night to get back to the dormitories.

Lily was always at the university. Apart from when she was on dates with Sean, she barely stepped outside the campus grounds.

How could she have been mugged?

Would those muggers have been bold enough to enter the campus grounds?

Bart was even more agitated when Sean did not believe him. "Sean, I'm not lying to you. I

swear on my life!"This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Sean's smile froze at once.

Bart had sworn on his life.

Even a stranger would have to believe what he had said.

However...

Why would Lily be out this late at night?

Sean's voice trembled as he asked, "Where's Lily?"
