Chapter 802 A Peculiar Scent

Back in Arthur’s Tavern, Alex and Maggie were almost done with their meal.

The two of them discussed what to gift Richard for his birthday. Despite their prolonged discussion, they had yet to reach a conclusion.

Maggie cursed the dense man countless times in her heart. She even considered cracking open his head to see what could possibly make him so impervious to her charms.
