Chapter 75

"What? After everything she's done, you still won't break up with her? Magnus, you must be out of your mind."

Magnus stood up abruptly, unwilling to listen to Faustina's nagging any longer.

"As the heir to the Wainwright family, I'll do what's expected of me. But my marriage is none of your business. And stop harassing Isadora."

With that, Magnus strode out of the conference room, leaving Faustina alone.

"Magnus! Magnus, sweetheart-how is this my fault? She's the one who embarrassed your mother in front of everyone today, not me.”

Faustina had come to Magnus hoping for some support, never expecting him to refuse to break up and even blame her for making trouble for Isadora. Isadora must have cast some kind of spell on him, she thought bitterly.

Magnus summoned Lean.

"Has LA Wedding finalized the dress design?"

"It's ready,” Lean replied. "The 'True Heart' engagement ring and necklace from Northmarch's next jewelry collection have also been auctioned off. We're just waiting for Miss Isadora to come in for her fitting."

The 'True Heart' set had once belonged to a Northmarch duchess in the old days. Winning that auction had cost a cool five million.
