The Imposter Bride (Natalia and Magnus)

Chapter 64

"Seems like you, Mr. Clarkson, are totally unaware that two days ago, Kendra had my wife kidnapped

and whisked off to England. In the process, she was intercepted by the police and my wife was pushed

into the ocean! Are you telling me that you, as her father, had no idea about any of this?"

"What? Natalia fell into the sea? Is she... alright?" Kyler shot up from his seat. His hands started to

shake. Natalia couldn't be in any danger!

"If she were, I would've done more than just invite you here today!" Magnus lifted his head, his icy gaze

laced with a wild, hostile air.

"I could send Kendra to jail today with the evidence I have, and let her rot in there for a decade or

more. But, I am considering the respect I have for you, Mr. Clarkson. That's why I have asked you to

handle this matter. I hope you can offer me a satisfactory response. And one more thing, I want to put

an end to this absurd marriage with Kendra! I hope you will expedite the divorce proceedings between

Kendra and me! Should you continue to delay, I can't guarantee whether I will become a widower or get

a divorce first!"

His steely gaze bore into Kyler, and the unfathomable coldness in his eyes made Kyler shiver to the

core.

"Rest assured, Mr. Andersen, I will discipline Kendra this time. Thank you for your mercy. I will provide

you with an answer." Kyler rose to leave.

"Mr. Clarkson!" Magnus called after him.

He stopped at the door and turned to face Magnus.

"Natalia is my woman, and I won't allow anyone to bully her!" Magnus' gaze was surging with a hidden

storm.

Kyler nodded and quickly exited, his heart pounding in his chest. He could feel the murderous intent

radiating off Magnus.

At the Clarkson's mansion, Kyler stormed in, with the servants lowering their heads in deference. "Sir."

"Call Kendra down here!" His voice was laced with an indescribable rage.

"Yes, sir!" The servant could sense the brewing storm within the house.

Upon hearing her father wanted to see her, Kendra nervously descended the staircase. "Father!" She

walked over to the couch, looking at the furious Kyler, a sense of fear creeping over her.

"Slap!" Kyler stood up and landed a heavy slap on her face before she could react. Her perfect skin

instantly bore the mark of his palm. Kendra looked at Kyler in disbelief. She had never seen her father

hit her before.

"Father! Why did you hit me?" She cried out loudly.

The commotion brought Addison out of her room. "What's going on?" NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

"What's going on? Ask her what she's done! She dared to kidnap Natalia and even threw her into the

sea! Is this the daughter you raised? She even tried to harm her own sister!" Kyler pointed at Kendra,

his hand trembling.

Addison widened her eyes at Kyler. "What nonsense are you spouting? Kendra wouldn't even hurt a fly,

how could she possibly kidnap Natalia!"

Kyler glared at Addison. "Ask her yourself. If it weren't for my intervention today, Magnus would have

already sent her to jail!"

Addison turned to Kendra. "Kendra, is this true? Did you really do this?" She couldn't believe her

precious daughter could do such a thing. It must have been that wretched Natalia who framed her!

"Yes! It was me, I wanted her dead!" Kendra covered her face, glaring at Kyler fiercely.

"She took my marriage. She refuses to let go of Magnus. I am his wife, and I am the lady of the

Andersen family, not her. She even made Magnus hit me." Kendra's eyes flashed with a fierce light.

Kyler, feeling furious, raised his hand to slap Kendra again. "You still want Natalia dead? She married

Magnus because of you! How dare you be so ungrateful! How could I have a daughter like you!"

Addison immediately stepped in. "Kyler, you can't hit Kendra. Natalia... didn't she survive?"

Kyler looked at the mother and daughter huddled together, and his teeth gritted in anger. "You brought

this upon us! Clean up this mess. If Natalia were to die, do you think we could still stand here? We

might all end up buried with her!"

Kyler pointed at Kendra. "Get your documents ready and sort out the divorce. Or else be prepared to

go to jail."

"No, father, I will not divorce. Even if I can't have Magnus, I am still the wife of the CEO, and my

position is unchangeable! I won't let Natalia have her way! Not unless I'm dead!" She ran upstairs

crying.

Kyler glared at Addison. "This is your doing! You deal with it." He stormed out of the mansion.

Late into the night, in a dimly lit bar, Lucius sat in a booth with a woman in his arms, as the drone glass

after another.

"Mr. Lucius, you're drunk. Do you want me to stay with you tonight?" The woman's blood-red nails

traced the chest hair of the man, slowly moving downwards. Lucius looked at the woman in his arms,

her luscious lips, recalling how Kendra, in her quest to get Magnus, had Natalia kidnapped.

What a brainless woman. He had loved her for so many years. Was he a fool?

A faint smile tugged at the corner of his lips. "Want me to stay? How would you keep me company?"

"Stop it, you know very well..." The woman flirtatiously kissed his chin.

Lucius finished his drink in one gulp, threw the glass away, and leaned down and kissed the woman's

chest. The booth was soon filled with the sounds of a man's low growl and a woman's soft moans.

Kendra repeatedly dialed Lucius' number, but no one answered. Meanwhile, Lucius was in the throes

of passion with another woman, oblivious to Kendra's calls. She threw her phone against the wall in

frustration.

The next day, Natalia went to school and saw Lexi. "Lexi, where's Sabrina?"

"She left, off to France, with tears in her eyes. Natalia, why are both of you like this? She didn't want to

go to France, but her grandfather is a man of his word!" Lexi lamented, tugging at Natalia's arm.

Natalia, gazing at the gradually rising sun, comforted Lexi by patting her shoulder. "Let's go, off to

class. Everyone has their own destiny. She'll be okay. Don't worry."

"Okay." Lexi nodded, gripping Natalia's hand tightly. "You're alright after the kidnapping the other day,

right? The whole school knows about it. The wheelchair-bound hunk even came to school to see the

principal."

"I'm fine. I'm back safe and sound, aren't I?" Natalia replied, puzzled as to why Magnus would come to

see the principal.

A week later, Natalia and Lexi began their final exams. For the intense three days of testing, Magnus

didn't disturb her, driving her to school every morning and picking her up every night, even giving up his

study for her use.

But inevitably, the wheelchair would roll in from time to time, the man capturing her petite figure for a

lingering kiss. Natalia had already grown accustomed to Magnus' overbearing and unreasonable

behavior.

After completing her exams, Natalia began her summer vacation. Kendra had been unusually quiet

during this period, not causing any trouble.

Meanwhile, Magnus' company was thriving under his leadership, signing contracts with several

European countries and boosting economic exchanges, inching the company closer to prosperity. At

this point, Lucius was growing more agitated. He hadn't expected the cripple to turn the company

around, and, even more surprisingly, to make it more successful than before. A sense of fear and

unease began to creep into his heart.
