Chapter 923 Took Pleasure In Taunting Him

Giles and Lydia bade them goodbye and left as soon as Alex arrived in Lumenopolis.

During his time in Lumenopolis, Alex let himself loose and focused on spending time with Maggie and Richard. In fact, he devoted so much time to them that he barely had any time for himself.
