President's Naughty Sweetheart novel Chapter 20

Ella had not expected that he would care about her, so she gave a little start, and then she said in a nicer way, "Well, much better."

Aiden nodded and seemed to be satisfied with her answer.

He patted the position next to him. "Come over. Sit here."

"Well, I might just stay here... If you want to say something to me, you can get it straight." Ella stepped back with a nervous look.

Aiden chuckled. "You seem to be afraid of me?"

She sneered, "You wish."

That being said, she still didn't come over.

Aiden didn't push her. He put his coffee cup down on the tea table, and then tapped on a note. "Find out all the books on the list."

(He asked me to come, but only for finding books?)

Seeing Aiden continued reading the French newspaper in hand without further reply, Ella shuffled to the tea table and picked up the note. She was a bit surprised, since some books one the list were those French design books that she had longed to read but couldn't buy.

She glanced at the office, then moved a nearby chair to the large bookcase, and began to find books one by one according to the note.

About half an hour later, all of the twelve French books were found out.

Ella took the books, put them on the tea table, and said to him, "All the books have been found. May I leave now?"

"Yeah." He was still reading newspapers, and replied with a cool voice.

"Okay."

She had got only two steps when heard his voice again, "Take the books with you. Read them carefully."

Ella was completely shocked: the book list was for her!

Her happiness lasted less than five seconds, then disappeared. "These books are written in French, and I ... am not good at French."

The perfect man raised his face slightly. There was contempt in his black eyes. "You know how to make excuses, but have no time to look up a French dictionary?"

"Well..." She shouldn't refuse, as he was so kind to lend her these original books.

Ella had just picked up books when the door of the office was open suddenly. Then she heard a pleasant voice. "Aiden."

He was kind of surprised, "Camila, what are you doing here?"

A young girl who looked around 20 came in. What a typical beauty. She was about 5 foot 6 and has good skin that you couldn't even see her pores.

Camila was dressed in a white lacy dress with a sweet smile and big sparkling eyes. She walk with jaunty steps towards Aiden, leaned over to look at him, and pouted. "Aiden, I've come back for a whole week, but you still haven't come to see me! Well, I guess you must be very busy, so I come to see you myself."

By this time, Miles was already standing at the door. He glanced at the office to see if there was any thorny issue. Thanks God, everything seemed fine... But Miles still started with a worried look, "Sorry, Mr. Hill. Miss Morrone has the elevator card..."

Aiden nodded and raised his hand. Then Miles gently shut the office door.

Miles's words let him remember that before Camila went abroad, he had given her an elevator card to the top floor. No wonder she could see him directly without getting past Mile.

Aiden looked slightly mollified, "Sorry, Camila, I've been kind of busy with work recently so I haven't come to see you. Hope you won't get angry."

Camila blinked at him, "If you go shopping with me tonight, I will forgive you."

There was slight indulgence in his eyes. "OK, I promise."

"Aiden, I haven't even had breakfast to see you. Do you have time to join me now?" Her voice sweet and innocent.

Looking at this girl who was just like an angel, Aiden's frozen heart thawed.
