Chapter 40

My forehead furrowed as I got out of Magnus’s car. Is he sure we’re not getting lost?

We stopped in front of a grand and classic mansion made of stones and marbles.

I glared at him but he just stared straight ahead.

“It doesn’t look like a business event.” It’s more of a party with all the hanging bright lights and fancy silver décor around the place.

A mini stage is set up in the middle of the spacious garden.

“Son!”

I gulped when she showed up in front of us.

“We’re waiting for you! Where did you go? Why are you late?”

Magnus stared at me

“Something came up, it’s urgent.”

It made me look at it.

Her eyebrow raised, “Why are you with that girl?”

“She’s my secretary Mom. I suppose you know her right?”

Her mother knows my name and my scandal with his son but he doesn’t really know me the way Magnus did before.

“What?! She’s your what?” she glared at me.

“You heard me Mom.” Magnus’s calm promise.<
