Then, feeling a sense of relief, he decided to carry out the next steps with Natalia here.
Once everything was set, Magnus, under the pretext of having to work overtime at his company, had the driver take Natalia to the villa first.
Recalling the incident that happened last time they came to this villa, Natalia felt a bit uneasy coming here alone. But thinking about how this place had witnessed her and Magnus go through life and death, Natalia firmly insisted on having this villa. She didn't know how many memories belonging to her and Magnus she could preserve, so she cherished this villa dearly.
"Miss, Mr. Magnus will arrive shortly," Linden, standing beside Natalia, saw her standing at the villa's entrance, lost in thought. He respectfully bent over and stood by her side, speaking to her.
"Alright," Hearing Linden's words, Natalia turned her head, gave him a smile, and entered the grand doors of the villa.
Linden led Natalia to the room where the explosion had occurred before.
Perhaps Magnus' previous concerns were justified, saying that she would always feel fear here due to the accident. Natalia didn't believe him at first, but when she actually walked to the room's door, she realized she was genuinely scared. The events of the day of the explosion flashed before her eyes. Back then, she was so scared, fearing that the explosion would take Magnus' life.
If Magnus was in front of her at the moment, she wouldn't hold back and would hug him tightly.
"Miss, Mr. Magnus said to wait for him here. He'll be here soon," Linden said, noticing Natalia standing there, her face pale. Unlike his usual considerate self, he simply lowered his head, rigidly relaying Magnus' orders.
"Alright, Linden, you can go on with your tasks. I'll be fine here alone," Natalia responded, nodding her head.
She watched Linden leave, his departing figure seemed rushed. Natalia thought, "Perhaps Linden also harbors fearful memories of the attack."
Thinking so, she yearned for Magnus more. She stood at the door of the room, took a deep breath, and reached out to push open the doorknob.
"Bang, bang!" However, the moment she opened the door, two firecracker-like explosions rang out.
Natalia, already a bit fearful, was startled by the sound. Her face turned pale, and she covered her ears and screamed, "Ah!" Her mind was filled with one thought: Had the bastard Lucius started an other attack?
"Natalia, it's us. Don't be scared," James, holding a party popper with an innocent face, hurriedly spoke.
After speaking, he subconsciously glanced at Magnus, who was sitting in his wheelchair in the middle of the room. Seeing the look of distress on his face, James could only think: Oh no, Magnus isn't going to lose his temper, is he?
