Chapter 89
Back in the bookshop near Wiltspoon School, Serenity sat behind the cash register, scrolling on her phone reading news while Jasmine was lost in a romance book.
As the owner of a bookshop, Jasmine had free rein to explore all the books she wanted.
That was the perk for doing what she loved for a living.
Jasmine had read almost all the romance novels in the shop.
At times, Serenity would tease by asking Jasmine to become a writer since she had always enjoyed a good chick lit.
“Seren, the main characters of this story got married at first sight too.”
As she put down the book,Jasmine added with a smile,” Just like you.” Serenity was fixated on Jasmine.
“Lots of people got married after dating shortly.Well, you did say that the female character of that book blindly married a billionaire.My husband is only a wage earner.”
Even though Zachary was a senior white-collar worker in a major group, he was working for someone.
“You might want to cut down on reading.I think the stories are getting way over your head.You’ll never find Mr.Right because you’d compare the male leads to the men you meet in real life.The irresistible men in your books only exist in fiction.” Rarely were there young, attractive, wealthy, and devoted CEOs in real life.
“I’m just passing time with these books.I don’t have a knack for crafting like you.” Closing her book, Jasmine pulled out her phone and scrolled for any interesting news.
Her general preference was tabloid.
She visited her favorite site and checked the trending updates of the day.
With one article piquing Jasmine’s interest, she exclaimed, “Seren, check out Twitter.”
“What’s the big news?” Serenity spared her a glance but nothing more.
She had a Twitter account, but she rarely managed it as her number of followers were only in the double digits.
