Magnus shot Isadora a cold glance, his brow furrowing.

"Gideon, once you're done here, get out. Don't make a mess."

"Don't be an idiot, Magnus. Last time Isadora tried to make Elise jump in the river; this time she shows up at her door and throws boiling water at her. The woman's poison, and she's out for Elise's life! If you won't teach her a lesson, I will!"

"Gideon, I'll handle this. Leave. Now."

Magnus forcefully shook off Gideon's hand.
