Contract Marriage Devil's Trap
Chapter 40: Under Her Pure Looks...
When Isabella read the sentence, she was stunned for a moment.
This should be Maxwell's handwriting.
Although she knew it was a quote from the book, she was surprised by his neat and sharp handwriting.
Just by looking at it, she could feel his dominance.
Not knowing where he was right now, she had to put down the book.
It would be awkward if he caught her reading.
However, just as she turned around, she met his gaze.
"Oh! Y-You...When did you..."
Isabella felt guilty and asked awkwardly.
All of a sudden, she felt she was on extremely bad luck today.
Not only had her lies been exposed within an hour, but she was even caught by Maxwell just as she picked up his book.
Looking at her guilty expression, Maxwell said softly, "I've been here when you picked up the book.What is it? Have you read it before?"
Nodding, Isabella answered, "I read it in college, but I didn't finish it because of the internship."
"Aren't you a good student? Don't you know how to persevere?"
Maxwell snorted while walking to the desk.
Upon hearing this, Isabella raised her eyebrows because this wasn't the first time he had mocked her.
Just now, he hinted that she was stupid, but she ignored him.Why was he doing it again?!
"I have a reason.If you aren't reading it anymore, lend it to me!"
She picked up the book from the coffee table.
Casting a glance at her, Maxwell replied, "Just take it as you please."
After hearing the same words from him not long ago, Isabella left the room grumpily.
Her footsteps were heavy as she vented her anger along the way.
Seeing her walking away, Maxwell said lightly, "Write me a book review after finishing it."
Isabella, who had reached the door, was stunned by Maxwell's words and stopped in her track.
Turning around, she asked, "What book review?"
"What else can it be, huh?"
There was a faint smile in Maxwell's eyes when he looked at her.
Being certain that Maxwell would never smile at her, Isabella believed the dim, yellow lights were giving her a hallucination.
"Well, I don't want to read it anymore."
Was Maxwell cracking a joke on her now? It had been ages since she wrote a book review, and yet, Maxwell said it so lightly as though it was as simple as ABC.
