Chapter 535 Workaholic

Chloe's breath caught in her throat.

Michael recited her favorite poem by her favorite poet.

He recited it in his confused state as if to tell her he had read it.

She had thought he was just pretending at the Jorge Luis Borges poetry gathering, trying to create a false sense of shared interest.

But now, it was clear he had genuinely read Jorge Luis Borges' work.
