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.

Her heart ached, and a bitter taste filled her mouth. Why couldn't Michael have done this sooner? She might not have completely given up on him if he had changed a week or a month earlier. But now, with everything settled, he decided to change for her.

He held her hand. "Chloe, is it really too late for me?"

Chloe said, "Michael, next time you meet someone you like, don't be so slow to realize it." For them, what was lost was lost.
