Never Again Yours (Isadora and Magnus)

Chapter 179

Nanette wrapped up filming a reality show and immediately dragged Isadora out for dinner.

They ended up at Capitolion's hottest spot for barbecue-a place famous for its fiery taste and long waitlists.

Nanette was in high spirits, sipping on a cold beer as as she flipped marbled beef slices on the sizzling grill. She smothered them in an extra-spicy pepper sauce and took a huge bite, the heat lighting up every nerve in her brain. It was the kind of meal that made you sweat and grin at the same time.

She had spent the past month forcing down nothing but salads to keep her figure at 170cm and 45kg. Most days, she hovered somewhere between starving and fainting from hunger. So tonight, she relished every mouthful.

But across the table, Isadora just listlessly poked at her food, stirring a meatball around her bowl without ever bringing it to her lips.

Nanette shot her a look. "Babe, Victor's on a business trip, not running off with someone else. Why so distracted at dinner with me?"

Isadora, jolted by Nanette's voice, finally took a bite of the beef meatball-juicy and bursting with flavor. "Watching you eat is entertaining enough."
