The Imposter Bride (Natalia and Magnus)

Chapter 177

He remembered plunging into the sea with his wife. There was no way he would abandon her.

The door to his hospital room swung open as Morgan, Anthony, and Lillian stepped in.

Lying on the bed with his eyes wide open, Magnus stared at the ceiling. Morgan saw this, felt overcome

with emotion, and rushed to Magnus’ side.

"Magnus, you're finally awake. Do you know you've been unconscious for half a month? How long were

you planning on scaring me?" Morgan said as tears streamed down his face.

Magnus slowly moved his gaze from the ceiling to Morgan's face. "Where is my wife? Where's Nat?"

He tried to get up to look for Natalia, but Morgan held him down. "Your leg's broken, and you have

severe internal injuries. Don't move!"

Magnus shrugged him off. "Where's my wife? I need to find her!"

Even the hardened Lillian couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy. After all, he was her flesh and

blood. "Nat fell overboard...we couldn't find her...Maybe someone else did. Once you're better, we'll

look for her!"

Couldn't find her? Then he would continue the search. Natalia must have been freezing in the water.

He had to find her!

Ignoring Morgan's protests, he tried to get out of bed but ended up tumbling to the floor. A sharp pain

shot up his leg. What had happened to it?

Anthony rushed over. "Your leg's not healed. You want to ruin it again?"

His leg had been broken again. What was he to do? Magnus closed his eyes as tears rolled down his

cheeks. He remembered the moment Natalia fell into the sea, and his mind felt like it was going to

explode.

“Nat, if anything happens to you, I won't survive.”

Who said men didn’t cry? They just hadn't been hurt enough.

Magnus felt a deep concern for Natalia, who had fallen into the water. He despised himself for not

being able to do anything because of his injury. He looked helplessly at Morgan standing by his bed.

"Grandpa, I beg you. Can you help me find my wife? I've never asked you for anything before, but now

I'm begging you. Please help me find her."

Morgan shook his head. "Magnus, I've told you before, that girl doesn't deserve you. Her background is

murky at best, and if it wasn't for her, my grandson wouldn't left this world. Now that she's missing, it's

even better. I don't have to deal with her anymore!"

With a hard heart, Morgan spat out these words. Seeing Magnus' heartbreaking look, he hated Natalia

even more. Why did she have to jump into the sea?

"Grandpa, how many times do I have to tell you before you believe me?" Magnus stared at Morgan in

despair. "I love Natalia. She is the only wife I'll have in this lifetime. Do you know that the early death of

our child was partly my fault? I hurt her and our baby!"

Morgan sensed Magnus' emotional state, and didn't want to upset him further. He nodded perfunctorily.

"Alright, alright. I'll send someone to look for her. Don't get too agitated. You need to focus on healing

your leg. This is the second time it's been broken. You can't afford another accident."

With that, Morgan left the room with Anthony and Lillian, instructing his bodyguards to continue the

search for Natalia. But it had already been half a month. If they were going to find her, they would have

by now. Morgan was deep in thought.

As soon as Morgan left, Dr. Frankie walked in. He saw Magnus struggling to get out of bed, and rushed

over. "You can't move around like that. Otherwise, your leg that I worked so hard to set will be

displaced."

"You need to make my leg better, now! It's been days. What are you doing?" Magnus shouted at Dr.

Frankie.

Dr. Frankie was taken aback. This guy was so heartless. When he'd rushed back that day, Magnus' leg Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

had been crushed between a car door and a steel pipe. He'd spent a day and night without food

performing surgery on him. And now that he was awake, this was how he treated him. Dr. Frankie was

so angry he wanted to punch him. "Magnus, do you have a conscience? Your leg has broken twice! I've

wasted my youth and time with my family treating you, and you..."

Magnus pushed Dr. Frankie aside. "Then get out! I need to find Natalia. She's still in the sea. I need to

save her!"

Magnus was on the verge of breaking down.

Seeing how agitated Magnus was, Dr. Frankie pushed him back onto the bed. "Calm down! Nurse, give

him a sedative!"

"You dare!" Magnus glared at him.

"Why wouldn't I? Do it!"

The nurse nodded and turned around to prepare the sedative. Quickly, she handed the syringe to Dr.

Frankie. He whispered to the nurse, "Hold him down. He's terrified of injections."

The nurse approached Magnus hesitantly and reached out to hold him down.

"Don't touch me!" Magnus glared at her, warning her to stay away. The nurse flinched and looked at Dr.

Frankie for help.

"If you want to get better quickly, you need to cooperate with our treatment. Otherwise, you might never

be able to stand again. Your leg has broken for the second time!" Dr. Frankie looked him in the eye.

Magnus had no response, but what about his wife?

As Dr. Frankie's words echoed in the room, the Chase brothers and James walked in. They heard Dr.

Frankie's words and knew that Magnus was refusing to cooperate with the doctor. They approached

Magnus and held him down.

"Do you never want to stand again, or do you want to get better quickly to find Natalia?" James asked,

holding down Magnus’ arm.

"Magnus, this isn't a minor injury. You can't take it lightly. This isn't the first time you've injured your leg.

You need to take care of it," Carter, the most rational of them all, said.

"That's right. It takes a hundred days to recover from a bone injury. You're going to have to stay in the

hospital for at least a few months," Chase added.

While the three of them were talking, Dr. Frankie had already injected the sedative into Magnus' arm.

After pulling out the syringe, Dr. Frankie shook his head in resignation. "If we don't get tough, he won't

behave. This time, his shock is no less than the last time. Sigh!"

Magnus seemed deaf to Dr. Frankie's warnings, showing no concern for his own injuries. With the last

vestiges of his consciousness, he commanded, “You three…head to the beach, now! Find my wife and

get her out of those waters! I don’t care how you do it. I need her back, alive or dead!”

With that, the sedative that had been administered earlier began to take effect, and Magnus slowly

closed his eyes.

Fear that Chase and the others would not heed his words, he bit down hard on his bottom lip, drawing

blood in an effort to keep himself awake. “Go now!”

Seeing Magnus' desperate attempt to stay awake, Chase and his friends were trembling with pity and

distress. They were brothers in arms, each one always looking out for the other. Magnus had always

been their rock, but now his wife and child had been taken from him. How was he to bear it all?

Swiftly they nodded. “Alright, we're on it. You focus on getting better. We'll bring Natalia back!”

“Yeah, you rest here, we'll go find her right away.”
