Chapter 137

Suddenly, Isadora remembered that man's wild, arrogant declaration from the other night: "How about I give you The Vaughan Group?"

She'd never seriously considered accepting, of course.

Still, she couldn't deny the words had touched her—if only for a few seconds.

A man who's generous with his wealth, who doesn't hesitate to spend it on you— now that's impressive.

On that thought, Isadora unlocked her phone.

Just in time to see a message Victor had sent ten minutes ago.

"Miss me?"

She could practically picture his handsome, cocky face behind those words, that hint of mischief in his eyes.

A smile tugged at her lips as she typed back, "Not really."

Almost instantly, Victor sent a photo.

"What's this supposed to mean?" she replied.

It was a selfie she'd posted earlier that morning: a champagne silk blouse, buttoned all the way up, her smile casual and understated.

She hadn't expected Victor to notice-let alone send the photo back to her.
