Not going anymore?!

“I don’t care about her status.” Magnus interrupted her indifferently, his tone full of implications. “Also, she is the mother of my child, I will never help you against her, no matter what.”

The mask was pure gold, inlaid with crushed diamonds, and an engraving of the word ‘Enigma‘ at the corner of the eye was very conspicuous.
