The Imposter Bride (Natalia and Magnus)

Chapter 252

She stood up from the sofa, moving to a position further away from Magnus, fearing she might be

swayed by his charm again.

As Natalia quietly took her juice to a more distant location, Magnus unleashed his superpower of being

irresistibly charming and moved closer to her with a cunning smile on his face. "Honey, shall we get

going?"

"Go where?" Natalia was puzzled. Didn't they just return to his place yesterday? The sofa was barely

warm again. Why were they leaving so soon?

Natalia set down her drink, and Magnus looked at her with affection. "My love, can we return to

Melfort? After all, this isn't our home. Plus, you can occasionally visit your mother's grave back there."

Magnus' words struck a chord in Natalia's heart. Yes, home is where the heart is, and this place would

never be home for her.

"But, Cal's health hasn't improved yet, I'm worried if I leave abruptly..."

Natalia's words were cut off by Magnus' slender finger. "Shh. Stop calling him that name, it makes me

jealous. Darling, I know your feelings for him are just like a sibling’s love, but can you guarantee that

Callum doesn't have other intentions? It's better to reject him directly than let him live in an illusion. It

won't hurt him to start a new life."

"But I'm afraid he can't handle it, Magnus. You know how well he has treated me all these years. He's

been my only support. How can I be so cruel to him?" Natalia lowered her head, feeling upset.

She was well aware of Callum's devotion, but to directly reject him was something she couldn't do. She

was terrified of seeing the disappointment in Callum's eyes.

"Darling, I'm sorry I wasn't there for you all these years. Trust me, I'll love you more than Callum ever

could, and I'll be your only support! Also, being a man myself, no one understands men better than I

do. The more you don't reject him, the more he thinks there's a chance. It will only make him more

obsessed with you. Let him go, let him start his life anew. And you, are destined to be mine for life!"

Magnus gazed deeply into Natalia's eyes. His warm hand gently caressed her cheek. His deep-set

eyes reflected only love and affection.

Magnus' words was like a punch to Natalia's gut. Yes, she was always worried that Cal couldn't handle

it. She gave him hope only to disappoint him again!

Was she really doing the right thing by dragging this out?

Watching Natalia lower her head, Magnus couldn't bring himself to utter a single word of guilt. He

gently embraced Natalia. "Honey, go clarify things with him. Let him let go of his hopes and start a new

life sooner. Shall we leave tomorrow?"

Natalia's mind was full of thoughts about how to clarify things with Callum, she didn't notice that she

was already in Magnus' arms. By the time she realized, Magnus had sneakily pulled her onto his lap,

giving her a passionate kiss.

Feeling the heat from Magnus' thigh and his undeniable hardness, Natalia's face turned beet red. She

pushed away and squeaked, "You...put me down!" Jonas was still there!

As she spoke, she looked towards Jonas, only to find him covering his eyes with his small hands,

peeking through the gaps and grinning. "I didn't see anything!" He then darted into the room and closed

the door.

Natalia's face turned even more crimson. She immediately pushed Magnus away.

"Honey, you know, every time I'm close to you, I can't control myself." Magnus didn't seem

embarrassed at all. His voice was husky and sexy. "I'm thinking about doing it again. What should I

do?" His masculine scent filled Natalia's nostrils.

Natalia was speechless. Was this really the cold and calculating Magnus she knew? Oh, she

remembered he was indeed this cheeky, always making her blush with his smooth talk.

"Magnus, I need to see Cal, to see if he's feeling better and to clarify things. Then I'll go with you."

Natalia hesitated for a moment before agreeing to return with Magnus. Because Jonas would go back

to school there, and she didn't want to leave Jonas.

Magnus was overjoyed. "Good, but before we return to Melfort, let's go to France. I don't want you to

face a bunch of old acquaintances as soon as you return. You need to spend some time with me first,

to make up for all the years of longing."

Hearing Magnus' childlike words, Natalia managed a helpless smile. She never had any solution for This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

Magnus' persistent charm.

Natalia and Magnus were having a lovey-dovey conversation at their apartment, oblivious to the fact

that Lexi was being held captive by Callum in the mansion.

At that moment, Lexi had been taking a long bath in her confined room, hopelessly soaking in the

water, and trying to wash herself clean.

The cold water had wrinkled the skin on her hands, but she refused to get out She felt utterly tainted.

Not just her body, but her soul too.

And she was powerless to resist, helplessly imprisoned in this place that seemed glamorous but was a

living hell. Other than silent sobbing, Lexi didn't know what else she could do.

Suddenly, she heard footsteps outside the door. Lexi quickly got out of the bath, hastily wrapped herself

in a bathrobe, and quietly stood by the door.

The door creaked open slightly, and a man's foot stepped in.

Lexi knew that it must have been the jerk who had hurt her! Without a second thought, she grabbed a

brass flower vase by her side and smashed it towards Callum, who had just entered the room.

Callum had initially wanted to check on Lexi as he heard she hadn't eaten all day and had been

throwing things around. He stepped inside without a moment's hesitation, only to be greeted by a

flower vase hurled in his direction by Lexi.

With his hands outstretched, he caught the flowerpot in mid-air, lifting his hazel eyes to meet the gaze

of the petite girl standing before him.

"Why aren't you eating?" He slowly approached her, placing his hands on her frail shoulders.

Lexi swung her hand in an attempt to slap him. "Callum, you better let me go. Do you think Natalia will

spare you when she finds out you have locked me up?"

Callum caught Lexi's oncoming slap and pulled her towards him, pressing her against his chest. "Then

I guess I'll just keep you here for the rest of your life, so you won't get a chance to tell her that!"
