Aa Natalia walked, she was wracked with anxiety, completely bewildered as to where Magnus had acquired a Gatling gun. After all, this was England, not the Wild West. If they were to start a full– fledged shoot–out, wouldn’t they be thrown straight into a British prison?

Natalia’s concerns were not unfounded. The moment she had left Orange Horizon, Magnus had hastily called James, “Bring the organization’s weapons immediately. Someone wants to propose to my wife! I’ll make sure he has nowhere to run!”

If Callum wanted to marry Magnus‘ wife, he wouldn’t get the chance to because Magnus threatened to level his castle!

James was utterly flabbergasted, unable to comprehend why Magnus would want him to bring weapons to help him reclaim his wife What could have happened to provoke Magnus into deploying the newly acquired Gatling gun?

However, James observed Magnus funous expression and wisely decided it was best to keep his thoughts to himself and agreed readily. Who cared, it was a good chance to test this bad boy’s power

Not only would James bring six Gatling guns, but he’d also bring a dozen planes if Magnus asked, without any hesitation.

The next morning, James and his men hauled the six Gatling guns to England.

Was all this firepower just to reclaim Natalia? Wouldn’t it be easier to sneak into the castle and whisk Natalia away? Why would they make such a show of fore with their prized weapons? Wasn’t this a bit of an overkill?.

But, facing Magnus dark glare James kept his opinions to himself. He simply followed Magnus orders, directing his men to surround Callum’s castle

Then, James stood behind Magnus, waiting for the castle’s owner to come out and face them. The stage was set for a showdown, wasn’t it?

In no time, things started to go as James predicted. Callum, with a scowl even fouler than the one on Magnus‘ face, stepped out of the castle

Looking at the line of Gatling guns outside his property, Callum finally believed what Rita had told him. He’d thought Rita had been exaggerating, but it seemed she had actually downplayed the situation.

“Magnus, what the hell are you trying to do?” Callum stood there, hands clasped behind his back, with an air of disdain, finding Magnus actions as immature as a petulant child’s

Magnus took a couple of steps forward, meeting Callum’s gaze. “Tm here to take my wife home, Callum If you’re smart, you’ll return her to me, or else, don’t blame me for being rude”

“Ha‘ Callum couldn’t help but scoff “Magnus, have you lost your mind? Natalia is no longer your wife. Today is the day she and I get engaged. If you’re here to join the feast, I welcome you with open arms. But if you’re here to cause trouble, well, I won’t go soft on you” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

With that, Callum signaled, and a line of well–dressed bodyguards emerged from behind him. These bodyguards moved with cald, military precision, an aura of lethal intent surrounding them. Each one of them held a sniper rifle

Under Callum’s command, they were his most trusted aides, ready to execute any order without hesitation

Although Magnus brought six Gatling guns, the advantage between long–range and close combat was unclear. If a fight were to break out, it was uncertain who would come out on top

But one thing was clear- it would result in a bloodbath.

Magnus looked at the hardened mercenaries and laughed heartily.

“Callum, you’re really overestimating yourself. If you dare to make a move. I’ll level your castle and chapel. But I’m only here to bring my wife home. If I can’t accomplish this, then, this day next year will be the anniversary of your death! Magnus eyes were filled with a deadly chill, like a demon straight out of hell

His love for Natalia was bone–deep, and he wouldn’t stand by and watch her marry another man. Not unless he was dead. No, even if he died, he would want ther love to live on. She could never marry anyone else.

Magnus knew he was horribly selfish, but love was about possession. He could never be magnanimous

The thought of Natalia becoming another man’s wife made Magnus want to burn the world down! He loved Natalia with all his heart and soul. He wouldn’t tolerate her thinking about another man, nor could he bear her constant avoidance and escape

All he wanted was to keep her by his side, forever belonging to him alone.

Facing Magnus‘ blatant provocation, Callum didn’t flinch So what if Magnus had brought six Gatling guns? Even if Magnus dared to unleash such destructive weapons in England, the worst that could happen would be half his castle getting blown up. Callum would never let Natalia return to such a vile man

Natalia was so pure and innocent, and how could she bear such a wicked man like Magnus?

Therefore, Callum boldly confronted Magnus Humph, do you think I’m scared of you? If you want to fight, let’s not beat around the bush. But let me tell you. you win by some fluke, Natalia will never go back with you. She told me that the person she detests the most in this world is you, a selfish freak”

Callum deliberately provoked Magnus, ignoring his threats. The conversation reached a deadlock, with neither man willing to back down A showdown seemed inevitable

“Since you won’t let her go, I’ll make you pay!”

Magnus was enraged by Callum, especially by his last comment. He felt like he was on the verge of losing his mind. What kind of spell had this damned Callum cast on his wife? He needed to get her back as soon as possible!

With that thought, Magnus looked at Callum’s face, and the more he looked, the angrier he got He waved his hand Prepare to fire!”

James immediately got ready His cold eyes were fixed on Callum This guy was asking for it!

Seeing Magnus get serious, Callum felt a twinge of fear. He was terrified of jeopardizing the innocent lives in the castle, fearful that such an act would drown him in guilt!

‘Come on, Magnus, let’s have it out just between you and me! You’re not hurting anyone else! Before Magnus could even respond, Callum lunged at him, throwing a punch that nearly knocked Magnus off his feet

Magrius adjusted his stance, biting his lip in annoyance. Callum had the nerve to launch a surprise attack. How low!

Infuriated Magnus retaliated with a punch of his own. Callum blocked Magnus‘ counterstrike, and the two of them began grappling with each other. They tussled

Having James, who was ready to fire, completely dumbfounded.

What on earth was Magnus doing? Weren’t they supposed to be firing their guns? Instead, the two men were having a childish brawl.
