Meanwhile, Charlotte took Tommy, Luther and Aaron together to the military library.
This was an old historical building with three floors, the exterior was made of piled marble blocks, and the exquisite stonework. Although much smoothed by age, it did not fail to show the original ingenuity.
There were four guards at the door.
After they met Charlotte, they respectfully greeted her, "Miss Charlotte."
Although Charlotte was married, most of the soldiers still called her "Miss Charlotte" internally, and only externally would they call her "Mrs. Robertson".
Charlotte flashed her special pass, "I'll show Mr. Warner in."
Aaron was just about to step forward, but was stopped by an arm from Charlotte.
She turned her head, looked at Tommy and Aaron, and said coldly, "You wait outside the door."
Tommy responded, "Yes."
Aaron's long brow furrowed in displeasure, "Mr. Warner?"
Luther's eyes narrowed slightly and he waved his hand, "It's okay, you wait for me outside. I'll just take a look."
Aaron gritted his teeth and reluctantly stepped back. He wasn’t willing to leave Mr. Warner alone with the shameless Charlotte. Rather, he wanted to chop her up and feed her to the dogs.
Luther could see that Aaron had an opinion in his heart, and he signaled Aaron with his eyes. When he saw how Aaron was bent on defending Joyce all these years, he understood it in his heart and was touched by it.
Charlotte led Luther closer to the library.
Finally, no one else could stay between them, and she couldn't be happier.
In the library, it was more magnificent than expected. There was a three-story high ceiling, and floor-to-ceiling bookshelves were extending to the top of the library, and all these bookshelves were filled with all kinds of books.
Although the decor was old-fashioned, with all solid wood alignment wraps, the facilities were pretty modern.
Each side of the bookshelf was equipped with an automatic ladder for easy access at any height.
