Chapter 176: Don’t tempt me more
The next morning, Magnus awoke with a renewed sense of energy coursing through him. With a contented sigh, he stretched his arms and engaged in some light exercises before making his way leisurely toward the balcony. Stepping onto it, he was greeted by the soothing sound of Alora’s voice drifting up from the garden below.
As he peered down, Magnus spotted Alora busily planting new flowers, carefully selecting varieties that would flourish during the rainy season. Her laughter floated through the air, filling him with warmth and joy.
Despite the presence of other young ladies by her side, Magnus found his attention completely captivated by his wife, unable to tear his gaze away from her.
"How could she be so pretty?" Magnus murmured as he almost stopped breathing. He leisurely rested his arms on the balustrade, admiring Alora from the top.
Magnus smiled on his own, feeling delighted for no apparent reason.
After some time, he straightened up and ran his fingers through his hair. "I must have gone crazy. I should freshen up before she comes upstairs to scold me."
As he entered the room, he first freshened up and then came out to take his clothes from the cupboard. "What should I wear?" He mumbled. Usually, Tobias would pick his daily outfits, so he would not have to bother about his appearance at all. But now, he was confused between the outfits.
"Which one looks good on me?" Magnus thought as he checked them in front of the mirror. Suddenly, the door opened and he sensed Alora’s presence.
"Love, tell me which one will look good on me?" Magnus asked, his eyes twinkling with anticipation.
