Magnus's face changed a bit.

His eyes blinked, and he paused for a moment before gesturing to be quiet.

He spoke louder, asking, "Who is it?"

Cole introduced himself, "Mr. Xavier, I'm Cole, the head of the design department at Strakovski Jewelry. I'd like to discuss something with you."

Magnus frowned and whispered to Elena, "Go hide in the bathroom."

He had sent his assistant to Strakovski to sign a contract for a jewelry order, hoping to lure out Reese.

Since his true intention was now known, there was no point in continuing this ruse. He was short on time to customize the jewelry anyway.

Seeing that Strakovski's design director was here, Magnus planned to address the matter directly. He didn't want to waste more time on this matter.
