Never Again Yours (Isadora and Magnus) novel Chapter 117

Victor thought he’d just heard Isadora mention something about *M Boutique*.

He knew a little about this luxury brand. The Fitzgerald family were M Boutique’s most exclusive VIP clients, dropping millions there every year. The Vaughan Group—Isadora’s family business—owned high-end shopping malls, and Victor had heard rumors that they were negotiating to bring M Boutique into one of their new developments. That could only mean Isadora was representing the Vaughan Group in a fierce bid for the partnership.

Victor’s expression grew intent.

It looked like he needed to step in.

After all, he wanted to make sure his woman could enjoy her evening—and her dinner—in peace.

He picked up the phone and dialed his assistant. “Ada, set up a meeting with the manager of M Boutique for me.”

Sky Dining.

It was one of the most exclusive restaurants in Capitolion, perched on the 100th floor of a gleaming skyscraper. The name came from the way the dining room seemed to brush the clouds themselves; the views were nothing short of breathtaking. Everything about Sky Dining was over-the-top—the bill for dinner alone could run into the tens of thousands, and even getting in required a bespoke, invitation-only membership card.

Ordinary people didn’t stand a chance of getting a table here.

Even Isadora didn’t have a membership card.

When she arrived, the staff welcomed her with the utmost respect, leading her straight to the best table in the entire restaurant—a private spot by the window at the very top, a table that was almost never given to guests unless they were truly exceptional.

As Isadora settled in, she felt the subtle weight of attention from all around the room. For a moment, it seemed as if every pair of eyes had landed on her, quietly wondering which old-money family she belonged to, and how she’d managed to secure such an honor.

She lounged back in her chair, propping her chin on her hand, her beautiful eyes drifting lazily out the window.

The endless deep blue of the night sky stretched before her, twinkling with city lights below. Capitolion looked even more enchanting tonight, wrapped in a haze of decadence and allure.
