Never Again Yours (Isadora and Magnus) novel Chapter 38

Three years ago, the Fitzgerald Group was already the leading corporation in Capitolion. Now, its influence stretches across the globe.

Looking back, it’s no wonder the company’s founding board members once doubted Victor Fitzgerald’s capabilities.

Victor was the embodiment of effortless charm—confident, wild, razor-sharp, and strikingly handsome.

With looks more fitting for a top male model than a hard-nosed CEO, he turned heads wherever he went.

Victor glanced at the number on the screen and nodded, clearly satisfied.

He had always run the company with a clear system of reward and discipline.

“This year, everyone’s year-end bonus will be doubled.”

“Thank you, Mr. Fitzgerald!”

“Thank you, Mr. Fitzgerald!”

“We’ll meet again once the second half’s investment plan is finalized. That’s all for today.”

Laughter and chatter filled the air as the team filed out of the conference room, spirits high.

Victor was just about to head back to his office when his assistant, Jasmine, approached.

She took in his tall, athletic frame, the way he stood with one hand in his pocket, exuding an air of relaxed confidence.

Even though Jasmine had a boyfriend, she couldn’t help but feel a little flustered in his presence.

A man like Victor—blessed by fate—could draw attention just by existing.

If Jasmine hadn’t been so keenly aware of the gulf between them, she might have entertained ambitions of her own.

Don’t be fooled by her title—assistant to the CEO of the Fitzgerald Group. Jasmine was also a Beckett family heiress in her own right.

Landing this job had taken considerable effort and no small amount of family influence.

She composed herself and said, “Mr. Fitzgerald, Miss Vaughan from the Vaughan Group is at reception. She’d like to speak with you.”

Isadora Vaughan? That woman certainly wasted no time.

A subtle, amused curve appeared at the corner of Victor’s mouth. “Send her straight to my office.”
