Back to the Past: Breaking the Love Spell

Chapter 376
Daniel had heard what was being said on the other line during Carlisle's phone
conversation. With a tight smile, he shook his head at Carlisle and pretended he
had
nothing to say.
Carlisle smiled. "Could you go to the dorm and grab my guitar for me while I take
Wanda to the stadium?"
"For sure," Daniel said and turned to make his way to the dormitory.
A stage had been set up in the stadium, and before it was the audience seating area. A total of 25 rows had been allocated, and there were 30 seats in each row.
Shane found the student who was selling seats and handed him 800 dollars. "I'll give you 800 dollars for four seats in the middle section, second row. It's a non- negotiable
offer.
The student who was selling the seats was an upperclassman. He glanced at the 800 dollars Shane was holding out to him and frowned. "Kid, you're kind of driving a
hard bargain here.
"We agreed that the seats in the middle section wouldn't go for anything less than
300 dollars, which was why I held the reservation for you.
"Now you're offering a third less than the agreed price? Come on."
Shane didn't want to offend a senior, so he feigned despair as he mumbled, "Concert
tickets only go for about 100 dollars per show; 300 dollars for a seat at the bonfire
party is too steep. Can't you go any lower than that?"
"Damn it, fine!" the upperclassman growled. "Rough day for business, I guess. Follow
1. me.
The upperclassman took the 800 dollars from Shane and led him toward the
audience seating area.
Shane hid his glee as he fell in step behind the upperclassman.
A lot of the students at Rive and University hailed from affluent backgrounds. While
200 dollars might seem a lot for the average working-class person, it was nothing to
the rich.
A seat for 300 dollars would be considered a steal for these students, and even if the seats went for 500 dollars, Shane would bet his last coin that the scions would still
fight for them.
By grabbing four seats for 800 dollars, Shane had saved close to 400 dollars for
Daniel.
As the sky darkened, the lights in the stadium flickered to life. Images depicting the glory days of Riverland University and its many
accomplishments began to play on the large screen behind the stage.
While the quality was far from high definition, the freshmen found the whole set- up
impressive.
After all, a lot of the villages in the country were still considered underdeveloped, and it was a miracle for anyone to own a black-and-white television.
A large screen projecting color images was relatively new and wondrous to the
freshmen.
Daniel had Carlisle's guitar strapped to his back when he bumped into Christine and
Phoebe outside the stadium.
Up until a second ago, he had been worried about the two extra seats that Carlisle
and Wanda no longer needed.
Now, he bounded up to Christine and Phoebe like they were his beacons of
hope."
Hey there, gorgeous ladies!"
"Daniel, are you trying to give me a heart attack?" Phoebe snapped, patting her chest
to calm her beating heart when she saw that the person who had come up to her
was none other than Daniel.
It wasn't her fault that she was shocked; it was dark outside the stadium, after all.
Christine glanced at Daniel indifferently.
Daniel chuckled sheepishly "Sorry, I might have been a little loud."

Phoebe saw the guitar poking out from behind his shoulder and asked incredulously "You play the guitar?”

"It's one of the easiest instruments to pick up, you know," Daniel said cockily.

While he was no expert in any of them, he could play a few simple tunes if he
tried.
Phoebe pressed, "So what song are you playing tonight?"
Another sheepish chuckle escaped him as he said, "Uh... I didn't sign up for the
performance tonight."
"Then why do you have a guitar?" Phoebe asked, quirking her lips in amusement.
"It's Carlisle's," Daniel explained.
"Do you know what song he'll be performing?" Phoebe inquired.
"Nope, he didn't tell me," Daniel said sadly.
Phoebe rolled her eyes. "What do you know anyway? Come on, Christine. Let's
go."
She linked arms with Christine and led the latter toward the stadium doors.
At that moment, Daniel ran over to them and cut them off. "You guys, wait!"
He sneaked a glance at Christine and saw nothing but indifference on her face.
Phoebe asked with a raised brow, "What?"

Daniel explained, "Look, I had someone grab four seats for me in
the second row Two of the seats NO. were originally meant for Carlisle and Wanda, but they'll be sitting in the
first row with the guests. The content is on Novelxo.org! Read the latest chapter there!
"I was hoping you guys would do me a favor and take up the two extra seats."
