Chapter 1990 Making It Up To Her

Magnus was all curled up, hugging his knees. His head was hanging low. He had no idea how much time had passed when the sound of footsteps reached him.

"What are you doing here? Haven't you deceived me enough?"

She gave a bitter smile. "I'm broke. I don't have a single penny left."

Upon hearing her voice, Magnus was certain he hadn't misheard. He quickly grasped Denise's hand.
