His Versatile Gorgeous Wife (PDF) novel Chapter 813

Wendy’s heart skipped a beat the second she caught a glimpse of Arielle stepping inside the doors of the library.

Determined to not allow Aaron to see Arielle, she shot in front of him and obscured his line of sight. With a wry smile, she said, “Actually, there’s nothing interesting to see there, so why don’t we head over to the school museum first?”

That confounded Aaron. “Didn’t you just tell me that the library here is the grandest one amongst all within Chanaea’s higher institutes of learning? Why aren’t we going in now that we’re here?”

“It’s because…” Wendy hastily tried to cook up something. “It suddenly occurred to me that no matter how big or impressive libraries are, they’re kind of the same anyway.”

“I won’t argue against that.”

That offered Wendy a moment’s breather until Aaron added, “But since we’re already here, we might as well go in and check it out.”

Wendy’s chest tightened and she looked to intervene, but Aaron was already headed inside.

Left with no alternatives, she could only grit her teeth and play along

She could not afford to make it too obvious, lest it aroused his suspicions.

Wendy caught up with Aaron only to see him shake his head in disapproval. “It’s a lot less than I expected. Back home, any one of our libraries would easily put this one to shame.”

Wendy’s eyes darted around in search of Arielle’s whereabouts so that she might adopt preemptive measures.

When she heard what he said, it irrepressibly piqued her curiosity. “Our school library previously became a popular search topic domestically because of its size and splendor, so where exactly are you from, Aaron?”

Aaron narrowed his eyes and smirked menacingly. “I hope that’s the last time I’m hearing you ask me that, Wendy.”

Wendy was suddenly gripped by terror as she could clearly see the warning signs in Aaron’s eyes.

The look inside them was akin to a sharp blade pressed up against her chest, threatening to pierce through it at any time.
