Back to the Past Breaking the Love Spell (Carlisle Zahn) novel Chapter 406

Chapter 406 

Callie’s expression darkened at once, and her tone grew impatient. “Don’t mention him! It annoys me!” 

Melanie was unmoved. It wasn’t easy to find Callie’s weakness, and she wasn’t about to let it go easily. She asked. “Did he buy pads for you when you were on your period?” 

Callie laughed out of sheer anger. She looked angry. “Just the mention of it makes me angry. There was once when I asked him to go and help me buy pads because I was on my period. Guess what he said?” 

“What did he say?” Melanie looked enthusiastically at Callie. She only remembered Callie had a boyfriend in their second year of university, but they had broken up recently. 

Melanie had never asked Callie about the reason. 

Callie laughed wryly and said, “He told me that women in the past used cloths that could be washed and used again. He says it would save a lot of money if I did so too…” 

Melanie burst into laughter. “I’m sorry… I know I shouldn’t laugh, but… I can’t help it….” She was laughing so much that she was crying 

How could he tell her to use cloths as pads? 

He was so weird! 

Callie was furious, and her face and ears reddened. “Don’t tell anyone about this! We’ve broken up, but he hasn’t graduated yet. If this gets out, it won’t be good for his reputation!” 

Melanie stopped laughing with difficulty. She wiped away her tears of laughter and asked, “He’s from the University of Science and Technology, isn’t he?” 

Callie nodded. “Yes. I hear that there are a lot of literal–minded, tactless men studying there. Make sure you don’t get a boyfriend who goes there!” 

Just as Carlisle reached the building, Phoebe’s voice suddenly rang out behind him. 

“Carlisle!” 

He turned and saw Phoebe dragging a pink suitcase as she walked toward him, holding an umbrella. 

Christine was with her. 

“Did you rent a place here?” he asked curiously. 

Phoebe smiled stiffly. “You think too highly of us, Mr. Zahn. How could we afford to live in such a high–end apartment?” 

Christine explained, “We’re here to deliver Wanda’s luggage.” 

Carlisle glanced at the suitcase, nodded, and said, ‘I’ll bring you both up.” 

Phoebe saw Carlisle was soaked, so she put her umbrella over him. “Mr. Zahn, why didn’t you bring an 

umbrella when it’s raining so heavily? What were you thinking?” 

“We don’t have any umbrellas at home. Besides, when I came downstairs, it was only drizzling! Carlisle looked resigned. He hadn’t expected the rain to get so heavy. 

Phoebe praised him. “You’re such a good man. With you looking after Wanda, I feel perfectly assured!” 

The three of them chatted together as they walked. 

Carlisle suddenly asked, “Didn’t you get an investor? How much is he contributing?” 

Phoebe said triumphantly, “30 million!” 

Carlisle looked admiringly at Phoebe. “That’s impressive. You managed to find an investor after just a day! 

30 million wasn’t a small amount. 

Only a millionaire could invest 30 million so easily, and he wondered who the investor was. 

Without asking further, he entered the elevator and pressed the button for the 16th floor. 

In the elevator, Phoebe said, “It’s all thanks to Christine. She was the one who found the investor on a forum. He doesn’t seem to be in Shorefield, and he wants to talk to the company’s person–in–charge, but in Wanda’s current condition…” 

Carlisle laughed and said, “Tell him to set a time. I’ll take Wanda to discuss things with him.” 

Christine looked at Carlisle with bright, clear eyes. She hesitated, looking as if she wanted to say
