The Imposter Bride (Natalia and Magnus)

Chapter 79

The more Natalia blushed, the more relentless Magnus became. He set down the papers in his hand

and wheeled his chair over to Natalia. His gaze was direct and unflinching.

Natalia, feeling awkward under his gaze, quickly denied, "It's not like that. Don't read too much into it."

All of a sudden, she saw Magnus’ smile as fleeting as a cloud in the sky. His handsome face was even

more charming under the sunset outside the yacht.

Natalia's heart started to beat wildly as she walked over to him, saying gently, "Your massage is

important. I want your leg to get better soon."

“So that I could accomplish my mission!” She thought but couldn't say it. How could she say something

that would sadden him when faced with such a smile?

She knew she was not the one in his heart. Whether she stayed by his side or not, he didn't care. If that

was the case, why should she offer her true feelings for a discounted admiration?

"Really?" Magnus looked at Natalia standing there, her clear eyes filled with gentleness, making him

infatuated. A myriad of emotions surged in his heart. This girl was his, and he would cherish her.

He reached out and took Natalia's hand, pulling her into his arms. Pressing his forehead against hers,

he whispered, "I'm so happy that you care for me, my dear. Once the divorce with Kendra is finalized,

I'll marry you right away. From then on, we'll be a legitimate couple, and you'll have to massage me for

the rest of your life. I won't allow you to leave no matter what you say."

He feared that she might have mentioned leaving again, so he quickly issued the ultimatum. During his

time with Natalia, Magnus had never felt as happy as he did now. So, there was no way he'd let this

little joy-bringer leave his side.

As for Kendra, the sight of her disgusted him. If it weren't for his spite against Lucius back then, the

thought of him having any relation with Kendra would be unthinkable.

Life was kind to him, having sent Natalia his way.

Natalia sat in Magnus' arms, instantly remembering they were in the hall. "You... How could you do this

again? If the servants see, they will laugh." She looked around anxiously, noticing that the servants had

hidden out of sight.

"Where are Chase and the others? Have they left?" She had slept for a while, and they were gone.

Magnus murmured a soft, "Hmm," and continued to kiss her cheek one after another.

Natalia knew he was always like this, holding and hugging her inappropriately in public. His legs were

in such a state. Couldn't he put in more effort to stand up sooner? Didn't it anger him to be called a

cripple by Lucius? Or were his legs not a problem at all and had already healed?

Natalia had noticed a few times that Magnus seemed able to stand. But that night, when she was fully

conscious and pretending to sleep, Magnus took her to the bathroom in his wheelchair. This

inconsistency left Natalia confused. Were Magnus' legs healed or not?

Seeing Natalia's nervousness, Magnus couldn't help but laugh. He lifted his hand to caress her smooth

face, saying softly, "It doesn't matter if others see. You're my wife. It's normal for me to hold you, and no

one will dare to laugh. And this time, are you not worried about hurting my leg?"

...

Carter had come home after a long time, and James and the others wanted to hang out with him. But

as soon as Carter left, the plan was canceled.

Although Chase and James tried to persuade Magnus to relax a bit, he insisted on staying at

Maplewood Manor with Natalia. He'd been so busy lately that he had very little time to spend with

Natalia.

He was upset the last time Kendra took advantage of his business trip and kidnapped Natalia, giving

her a chance to visit Hector again.

Natalia was his woman, and no one had the right to take her away. But it seemed that Natalia didn't

care much about his legs anymore. Did his deliberate act last night, of standing and carrying her to the

bathroom while she pretended to sleep, fail to dispel her doubts?

Natalia, caught off guard by Magnus' question, looked elsewhere in a rush, her face flushing. "Your leg

is your problem. If you don't care about it, what's the use of me caring?" She retorted, annoyed at his

insinuations.

She eagerly awaited his return every day, hoping to massage his legs, but he was always so busy that

by the time he came home, he was too exhausted for a massage. If he cared about his legs, he would NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.

have them treated long ago. There would have been no need for her to stay at Maplewood Manor,

always ready to give him a massage.

"Ah? You're seeing it that way now?" Seeing Natalia's petulant look, Magnus couldn't help but laugh.

Her contradicting words and actions amused him.

He leaned down and pecked her lips before smiling and saying, "Do you now wish that I would never

stand again so you can stay by my side forever?" He teased her.

Regardless of whether he could stand or not, Natalia would never escape him in this lifetime. He was

determined to make Natalia his. Whether it was Hector or anyone else related to her in the past, this

outcome would never change.

"I never thought you'd see it that way. I still hope you can stand up again. No matter what the future

holds, I hope you can stand tall." Magnus misinterpreted her intentions, causing Natalia to quickly lift

her head to clarify. Her blue eyes locked onto his impenetrable gaze.

Natalia's heart fluttered wildly in her chest. Only when she saw the slight smirk on his face did Natalia

realize that Magnus was once again teasing her. At that, Natalia's brows furrowed together. She

grumbled internally, “This jerk. He's really pushing it!” She knew he was smart and cunning, but did he

really have to tease her until she was spinning in circles every single time?

Just a single sentence was enough to make Natalia anxious, and Magnus couldn't help but laugh.

Pulling her closer, he chuckled. "I know you didn't mean it that way, baby. I can tell that you truly care

about me and want the best for me."
