Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 533

Abigail was tidying up, chatting away, "Our new place has got its own study, and the bookshelf is massive. We won't have any issues with storage for our books."

Cornelia chimed in, "Yeah, once we move in, we can just splurge on books. Lots and lots of books."

Zack dropped in, "I saw a rare book online the other day, and it was so good it had me drooling. Guess how much the seller was asking?"

Cornelia and Abigail asked, "How much?"

Zack held up a hand, "This figure!"

Cornelia and Abigail asked, "Five thousand?"

Zack clutched his chest, "Fifty thousand!"

Abigail exclaimed, "Why doesn't he just rob a bank? Good books should be shared with people who can appreciate them. If they end up with someone who doesn't, isn't that just a waste?"

Cornelia kept repeating, "Fifty thousand? Fifty thousand? That's pricier than the study I saw." She thought of the study in Marcus' Celestial Chateau. Clearly, not only was the construction cost high, but the rare books inside were worth a fortune.

Abigail asked, "What are you talking about?"

Cornelia explained, "I've seen one of Marcus' studies. It's like a library, filled with rare books we've never heard of. If each book is worth fifty thousand, then the books in his study could be worth millions."

Abigail was shocked, "Oh my God!"

Cornelia added, "If he ever lets me borrow his study, I might lock myself in there for months."

Zack was frustrated, "We're nothing compared to these rich people. Even their books are better than ours. He's got all these rare books. Does he even read them? Or are they just for show?"

Cornelia replied, "He definitely reads them. I borrowed a rare book from him once, and there were some words I didn't understand. So I had to look at the footnotes. But he knew them all. He's like a walking encyclopedia."

Cornelia replied, "Not exactly. Like you said, who wouldn't like a good-looking, well-built, rich, knowledgeable, and nice-voiced guy? Of course, this kind of liking is like when we see male celebrities. It's merely admiration. Or to be more specific, we can look but not touch."

But what Cornelia didn't say was that this was her previous thought. After witnessing something between Marcus and Natalia, she no longer thought of Marcus as an untouchable deity.

Abigail high-fived Cornelia, "That's exactly it."

After a pause, Abigail added, "But if Marcus wanted to be with me, I'd definitely say yes. Better yet, have a child. I hope I can have a son as handsome as him. He'd definitely turn heads when I take him out."

Zack was speechless.

Cornelia asked, "Abigail, do you really think so?"

Abigail replied, "Haven't you ever thought about it?"
