Never Again Yours (Isadora and Magnus) novel Chapter 474

Isadora sent the screenshot to Nanette.

Nanette replied almost immediately.

“Thumbs up! Your man’s really something!”

Smiling faintly, Isadora exited the chat and kept scrolling.

It didn’t take long before she came across another headline about The Fitzgerald Group—the annual shareholders’ conference.

She tapped on a video.

The main entrance of The Fitzgerald Group headquarters was swarmed with people.

At the front of the crowd, a young male reporter in a crisp white shirt stood holding a microphone, broadcasting live.

“This is The Fitzgerald Group’s annual shareholders’ meeting. As the wealthiest corporation in Capitolion and a powerhouse on the global stage, their financial report has sweeping implications for markets around the world. Let’s see what this year’s numbers bring.”

The camera panned across the main gates.

One luxury car after another pulled up in a seemingly endless procession. Shareholders began to arrive, all with serious, almost grim expressions.

A row of burly security guards stood in perfect formation, holding the press and media at bay, keeping the entrance clear and the scene orderly.

It was obvious that today’s event was both grand and fraught with tension.

Suddenly—

A sharp screech of brakes shattered the tense atmosphere.

Nash, the driver, slammed the brakes. The Rolls-Royce jolted to an abrupt stop.

Isadora was still looking down at her phone, oblivious.

The sudden force sent her lurching forward, nearly throwing her off balance. She barely managed to steady herself, just avoiding a fall.

Nash twisted around in his seat, eyes wide with terror.

“Ma’am, I’m so sorry, I’m so sorry—a car just cut in front of us, I… I didn’t mean to slam the brakes!”

Rubbing her slightly dizzy head, Isadora steadied herself.

Thank God for the Rolls-Royce’s sturdy build. Even with such a harsh stop, the ride inside remained relatively smooth.

Nash saw her massaging her forehead and looked as though he might burst into tears—pretty impressive for a man pushing fifty.

“Ma’am, I’ve been driving for the Fitzgeralds for over twenty years. Nothing like this has ever happened before—honestly, it wasn’t my fault, that car just swerved out of nowhere. Please, ma’am, don’t fire me, I beg you!”
