Never Again Yours (Isadora and Magnus)

Chapter 121

"So I turned him down, quite seriously."

At that moment, Isadora knew with absolute certainty-there wasn't a trace of Magnus left in her heart.

She looked up, catching Victor's gaze across the table, her eyes shining with a soft, enchanting light-like a rose swaying in a summer breeze, impossible to resist.

Victor's eyes darkened with something unreadable as he picked up a stack of documents from the table and handed them to her. "Take a look."

She'd noticed the folder when he arrived, but hadn't thought much of it-until now. As she opened it, her eyes widened in astonishment.

It was a contract, signed by Mason himself, granting The Fitzgerald Group exclusive rights to bring M Boutique into their shops.

And now Victor was handing it over. Just like that.

Wasn't this the same M Boutique that had turned her down with such arrogance earlier that afternoon? And now, it was hers, as easily as if he were handing her a wrapped gift?

As if to confirm her thoughts, Victor said with a casual kind of grandeur, "Consider it a present."

Isadora snapped her eyes to him. "This is too valuable. What do you want in return?"
