Dumping The Ice King His Mini-Tyrant novel Chapter 499

Gwyneth arrived in style, sunglasses perched on her nose, trailed by a cadre of famous male models who made her entrance impossible to ignore.

Every one of those models was her assistant, following her wherever she went—a spectacle in their own right.

She’d been waiting outside the test site for over half an hour now, yet had made no public appearance. No one could blame her; with a self-driving truck about to speed down the highway, who could predict what might happen?
