The Imposter Bride

Chapter 85

All she knew was that her heart was like a stormy sea, churning within her Her palms were sweaty, and she had no idea what to say at this moment.

Hadn’t she promised herself that she would leave him once Magnus stood up? Yet, why had he gifted her a house, even promising her a honeymoon? Was he being sincere? Did he truly not want Kendra, or the girl in the portrait, but only her, Natalia?

“…” Natalia’s gaze met Magnus, words stuck in her throat Overwhelmed by a storm of emotions, she was unable to articulate her feelings

She stared at Magnus, silently pledging to herself if Magnus did not abandon her, she would never leave him. Their destinies were now inextricably

intertwined

Magnus chuckled at her expression, but just as he was about to say something, an ear splitting noise erupted next to them. The French doors in their room were suddenly shattered by a sharp object, sending shards of glass flying in all directions

“Watch out

The sudden danger startled Natalia Before she even had a chance to react, a strong arm wrapped around her waist. The next moment, she found herself

securely nestled in Magnus arms

Instantly he maneuvered his wheelchair, swiftly retreating with Natalia in tow Amidst the chaos. Natalia caught a glimpse of bullets piercing through the French doors, igniting sparks as they hit the wall

Magnus, hugging her tightly with a determined expression, diminished her fear considerably

In a few moments, he had led Natalia behind a decorative wall, safe from the view of their attackers

“Sir, they have a sniper It seems they came prepared, Linden reported, pulling out his own gun and firing back at their attackers. He managed to provide enough cover for Magnus and Natalia to retreat to safety, before swiftly moving to Magnus side

Hearing this, Magnus brow furrowed “Of course they came prepared How else would they know I would be at this villa today?”

He had never anticipated that his surprise for Natalia would turn into such a nightmare. It seemed that the villa was far from the safe haven he had imagined it to be

Upon realizing that they were on Andersen Corporation territory, Magnus had no doubt who was behind the attack. Lucius “Magnus clenched his teeth. internally vowing. “I’ve given you countless chances, yet you persist in your folly Don’t blame me for striking back. Let’s see who will fall first –

“Sir take Miss Natalia to the secret room immediately Chase and the others will be here soon” Linden advised, pushing the wheelchair towards the elevator Natalia, still in Magnus arms, was too shocked to react.

At this point, Lindens main concern was Magnus‘ safety

If it werent for Magnus s concerns that he d make Natalia uncomfortable with too many people around, he wouldn’t have reduced his entourage, if were more people with him the situation wouldn’t be so critical right now.

Their adversaries had already started firing from across the way Once they saw that their goal hadn’t been accomplished, they’d definitely rush over making the situation even more dangerous.

When Natalia heard Lindens words, she didn’t even wart for Magnus to respond. She immediately jumped down from his arms Linden, protect Magres. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

She couldn’t afford to drag Magnus into danger During their last encounter in France, he had been injured while protecting her. She couldn’t repeat itself in Natalia’s entire life, there weren’t many people who had genuinely treated her well. Magnus had already been very good to her, so she couldnt be so selfish as to bring trouble to hum

But Magnus hearing Natalias words was immediately aggravated He quickly pulled her back into his arms, whispering harshly in her ears, Dont be ridiculous. Have you forgotten how they tried to throw you into the sea last time? Do you think they would spare you now that you’re married to m

He continued “Stay put will never let my woman face danger

Knowing how ruthless and cruel Lucius could be Magnus wasn’t willing to let Natalia face danger

Lucius wouldn’t hesitate to strike a fatal blow by killing Natalia She is my woman Magnus woman it she fails into Lucius hands, he recouldn’t hes retaliate Magnus thought to himself

But But at this point Magnus was still resolutely protecting her Didnt be worry
