Never Again Yours (Isadora and Magnus)

Chapter 42

Magnus was always known for his icy composure, rarely betraying a hint of emotion. Today, however, you could see the storm brewing beneath the surface- barely restrained irritation flickered in his eyes.

During the meeting, when a colleague slipped up and quoted the wrong figure, Magnus tore into him without hesitation, his harsh words leaving the poor man in tears.
