Chapter 220
Chapter 220
Magnus' relentless pursuit was a constant source of pain for Callum, so Natalia really didn't want things
to turn out the way she least wanted them to.
"I'm not letting you go, Natalia. I hope you understand that." Natalia struggled, and Magnus, holding
her, managed to push her down to the backseat of the car.
Then, looking down at her, he smirked. "If you keep struggling, I can't guarantee that I'll be able to
control myself. I might do something you'll regret."
He had been yearning for her for five years and searching for her for the same length of time. His
desire for her had penetrated deep into his bones. If Natalia continued to resist, he really wouldn't be
able to control himself, just like he had said.
"You..." Magnus' words were obviously a threat.
Natalia was angry, but she held her tongue at the last moment. She had been with Magnus before, and
he was always a man of his word. Therefore, she wouldn't be foolish enough to question him. She
knew him well.
She turned her head away from him. She wanted to see what he was going to do. After all, this was
England, not Melfort.
"That's a good girl," Magnus said when he saw Natalia stop struggling. He gave a satisfied smile.
"Drive!"
"Yes, sir!"
Soon, Magnus' driver brought them to a luxurious villa in the city. This villa was just as luxurious as the
one Magnus had in Melfort.
When the car stopped, Natalia wanted to get out on her own, but Magnus didn't let her. He picked her
up and carried her into the villa.
"…What are you trying to do?" Did he buy this villa? Was this his home?
Magnus ignored the guards who were snickering at their intimacy and carried her into the villa. He
swiftly ascended the stairs and entered a large room.
"What are you trying to do, Magnus? Let go of me!" Magnus was now in much better shape than when
she had last seen him. He was no longer emaciated and listless.
Natalia put on a serious face and spoke to him. She believed that he wouldn't force her to do anything.
Seeing her serious expression, Magnus couldn't help but laugh. He gently set her down on the floor of
the room. Then, holding her hand, he said earnestly. "Natalia, I brought you here today because I
wanted to clear everything up with you."
He led her to the bed and looked at her radiant face. His heart started to race.
His wife was alive, thank God.
He touched her face, and Natalia stared at him. Her eyes were filled with caution. "What do you want to
say? Say it and let me go." She didn't think he had anything to say to her, other than to ask for her
forgiveness for the past five years, which she would not give.
That was a painful memory. How could she possibly forgive him so easily?
Magnus gently held her hand, and his eyes were burning with intensity. "Five years ago, I didn't get
together with Isabella. The person I've always loved is you, and you alone. Believe me, there's nothing
between Isabella and me."
After Natalia jumped into the sea, he investigated everything thoroughly. When he discovered that
Isabella and Kendra were behind all the dirty tricks, he wanted to kill those two damned women! Even
though he didn't kill them in the end, the fate of those two women wasn't any better.
"Even now, you're still lying to me. Do you find that amusing?" When she heard Magnus say this, Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Natalia, who thought he was still trying to deceive her, looked at him with disappointment. Her bright
eyes were red, and there was a faint trace of tears.
It was better not to mention the past, as it felt like tearing open an old wound!
Five years ago, she had seen with her own eyes the scene of Isabella and Magnus together. And there
was the video of him and Kendra having sex, which led to the death of her child!
She would never forgive Magnus in her lifetime!
And now he was coming to her and saying that all of that wasn't true. How was she supposed to
believe that? Did Magnus think she was a fool? Whatever nonsense he said, she definitely wouldn't
believe it!
After all the hardships she had endured, Natalia only believed in what she saw with her own eyes!
"Natalia, I'm not lying to you. Everything I've said is true." Knowing that she wouldn't believe him
without any evidence, Magnus looked at her and said earnestly, "Everything you saw was a trap set by
Isabella and Kendra. After you… jumped into the sea, I found out everything. Isabella wore my suit
jacket because she deliberately ripped her dress. I gave her a piece of clothing in return for her past
companionship. And the video of Natalia was doctored. It was her and Lucius!
Natalia, I love you so much. How could I possibly do those things with another woman? Is that how I
come across to you? I couldn’t fall in love with anyone else after all we've been through. You've already
taken up residence in my heart. My love, believe me!.
"And I've made those two damned women pay for what they did to you! My love, can you forgive me?"
"For the past five years, I've been looking for you, missing you. Can you really bear to leave me?" At
this moment, Magnus was no longer proud and aloof.
He was like a little wolf abandoned by its mother, begging for forgiveness. If it weren't for the fact that
he couldn't find Natalia for five years and missed her terribly, he would never have uttered these words.
But Natalia, who had been so righteous and indignant just a moment ago, was now at a loss for words
after hearing what Magnus had to say. She, too, had doubted that the video was real, but she had
believed it because she was in a bad mood at the time.
She had fallen into Kendra's trap.
Remembering all this, she felt incredibly foolish!
But all of this had already happened, and her child was gone. Even if she forgave him, it wouldn't bring
back the past five years or her child.
Back then, she had believed it to be true, thinking that the man in bed with Kendra was really Magnus.
Once she had calmed down, she was certain that even if Magnus no longer loved her, he wouldn't
have crossed that line with Kendra, but that was water under the bridge now.
So, she just looked at Magnus, very seriously, and said, "Alright, let's say what you're saying is true. So
what? It's been five years now, Magnus. I've moved on, and I'm ready to start a new life. So let's just
live our own lives separately, okay?"
She owed Callum a debt of gratitude, so no matter what, she couldn't betray him. As for Magnus, she
decided to let bygones be bygones.
