The Imposter Bride (Natalia and Magnus) novel Chapter 108

Magnus’ words seemed like he was defending Lucius. But anyone with a discerning eye could tell that he was implying that Lucius was out to get him.

Much like the past nine years, Lucius had deliberately pushed him into a line of fire, and also hired hitmen to kill him. All was done with malicious intent!

Upon hearing Magnus’ words, Lucius was consumed by a burning rage. He shouted at Magnus, “Stop slinging mud at me, Magnus! When did I push you?”

Turning to Morgan, he fervently explained, “Grandpa, don't believe him. I didn't push him. I really didn't!”

“Mr. Lucius, you still deny it, when all of us here saw it. You clearly pushed our CEO intentionally. If the Chairman doesn't believe us, he can check the CCTV footage!” Having done something wrong in front of so many people, Lucius still had the audacity to deny it. Paul couldn't stand it any longer and decided to call out his lie.

Their CEO might’ve been icy, but he was kind-hearted, unlike the ambitious and ruthless Lucius, who could be so hard on his own brother. Paul witnessed it with his own eyes this time!

Upon hearing Paul's words, Morgan, of course, knew the truth. He slowly stood up, looked at Lucius, and walked towards him.

“Smack!” A firm slap landed on Lucius' face. “You bastard! Can't you learn to restrain yourself? Do you think I'm oblivious to all you've done? I let you off the hook because you're of the Andersen’s bloodline. Your brother was lucky enough to be spared from your harm!”

Morgan's hands shook with anger. Thinking of the hardships Magnus had to endure from childhood, and the repeated traps set by his brother as an adult, his heart ached as if pierced by a thousand arrows!

He entrusted the Andersen Corporation to Magnus, not only to make amends but also for the company's future development. He already knew that all of this was Lucius' doing. But he never thought that selfish Lucius would repeatedly try to kill Magnus.

Morgan already know that the accidents Magnus experienced were all this Lucius’ doing.

“No, no, Grandpa, you can't wrong me like this, you can't believe Magnus' side of the story and wrong me!” Lucius shouted. His face flushed with embarrassment from being slapped in front of everyone.

His heart filled with resentment, as he coldly looked at Morgan. Why was it always Magnus who was favored by Grandpa, since childhood? Where did Lucius fall short compared to Magnus?

Seeing Lucius continuing to deny his wrongdoings, Morgan, was filled with rage, and roared, “You still won't admit your mistake! You're beyond redemption!”

He still refused to admit his mistake, accusing Magnus of framing him. The CCTV footage wouldn't lie, would it? As a grandfather, he had long figured out Lucius' nature. But Lucius thought Morgan was old and confused, and unable to see through his actions.

“I…” Lucius was at a loss for words when Morgan decided to check the CCTV footage. He knew that no matter what he said today, he couldn't escape Morgan's determination to investigate this matter.

Left with no choice, Lucius knelt down before Morgan, crying. “Grandpa, I was wrong, I shouldn't have pushed Magnus. But I really didn't mean to. He provoked me and made me lose my mind.”

Magnus chuckled bitterly as he watched Lucius not only gladly take the beating to save face, but also kneel in front of everyone. Then he Magnus said quietly, “Lucius, who provoked who? You were just in your office, engaging in intimate acts with Kendra, my lawful wife. You claimed that you've cuckolded me. I didn't retaliate because you're my brother, Lucius. In any case, Kendra is still my wife by law, and we're not divorced yet. Aren't you going too far?”
