Never Again Yours (Isadora and Magnus)

Chapter 336

Isadora found herself seriously considering whether she and Eleanor ought to leave Capitolion behind and start over somewhere new.

On the day of her three-month prenatal checkup, Nanette accompanied her to the hospital.

Isadora sat in the waiting room, filling out a mountain of paperwork. When she reached the line asking for the father's name, her pen hovered for a moment before she simply skipped it and moved on.

Nanette, sitting beside her, noticed but asked casually, "So, Isadora, that night Victor took you away... did anything happen between you two?"

Without looking up, Isadora kept writing. "No. Nothing happened."

Nanette rolled her eyes dramatically. "Nothing? Then why did he just whisk you away right in the middle of my birthday? That was the first time you didn't even blow out the candles at my party!"

Isadora handed her forms to the nurse, grinning. "Oh please, with Scales and Finley practically fighting over who got to stand next to you while you made your wish, I'd say you had plenty of attention. You really are irresistible."

Nanette snorted. "Sure, let's see if that charm works on the old lady selling veggies on the corner."
