My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins

Chapter 245: He Should Also Have Given up

Hesitating for a while, she finally sat on another couch, reached out to the paper bag, and opened it.

As soon as she saw the neatly placed books in there, she was completely startled.

Weren’t those the books that she was reading in the afternoon? She had planned to continue reading them tomorrow morning, but much to her surprise, Ernest took them to her.

“We’re not supposed to borrow the books from the mini-library, are we?”

Ernest took a sip of the wine and answered flatly, “I’m the CEO.”

All the books in there belonged to him. If he really wanted to take out any of them, who could stop him?

Florence was rendered speechless. His words indeed made sense. If the rich acted willfully, she couldn’t retort at all.

However, he had the heart to deliver all the books to her and this made Florence moved.

She recalled that he was reading one of them in the afternoon.

Being polite, she asked, “Don’t you want to finish reading that one?”

Ernest answered calmly, “I’ve finished reading it already.”

Florence was so surprised at his speed. In the mini-library, she had only finished half of her book. His book and hers were referencing each other and he stopped at almost the same part when she stopped. However, during dinner time, Ernest had finished reading it already. How could it be possible?

Florence thought that he must have lied to her to unease her.

Upon realizing it, Florence became more embarrassed.

“I’ll finish reading them as fast as I can.”

As she spoke, Florence browsed the books in the paper bag. Sure enough, besides the book that Ernest was reading earlier, there was the book that she was reading in the afternoon.

Those two books were supplemental to each other. It would be appropriate to read them both together.

“How about you read this book first? After I finish reading mine, I’ll exchange it with you.”
