The Imposter Bride (Natalia and Magnus) novel Chapter 14

Natalia suddenly looked up, noticing the sudden change in Magnus’ demeanor. She quickly walked over to him.

"No, I just haven't helped you put on clothes before. I'm not sure how to do it. I... I've never looked down on you for being handicapped. No, that's not it. Even though your legs aren't functioning well, I believe that one day you'll definitely be able to stand up again."

Natalia nervously looked at Magnus’ face, afraid he would lose his temper again. She walked over and gently helped him out of his bathrobe, quickly dressing him in a shirt. Her heart was pounding. She didn't dare to meet his eyes.

The man stared at her as she clumsily helped him get dressed. He didn't move and was simply watching her.

Once his shirt was on, she needed to remove his bathrobe to help him into his shorts. Natalia realized he was wearing nothing underneath. Oh, God, what was she supposed to do! Who was going to come to her rescue?

He couldn't possibly expect her to help him put on his underwear. As she pulled down his bathrobe, her hand accidentally brushed against something it shouldn't have. Boom! Her mind felt like it was about to explode. She quickly withdrew her hand.

But then she noticed something move beneath the bathrobe.

Magnus looked up at her. "Where did you touch?" His voice was a low growl.

"I... I'm sorry, Mr. Magnus, why don't you dress yourself? I'll go prepare breakfast!" Saying this, she quickly ran out of the room, as if a wild animal was chasing her.

Magnus frowned, watching her run out and close the door behind her. He stood up, removed his bathrobe, got dressed, and moved to the balcony with a smirk on his face.

By the time Natalia had finished preparing breakfast, Magnus had already come out of the elevator. He wheeled himself to the dining table. His clothes were neat and clean, giving him an elegant and noble appearance. Natalia looked at his formal attire. "Are you going out?"

Magnus nodded. "You're coming with me."

"Me?" Natalia was taken aback. Where was he taking her? If they were going to the Anderson family, would she be recognized as a fraud?

"Who else? You've been on the island for a week now, and it's time we went to visit my grandfather. Eat up and get ready."

After he finished speaking, Magnus began eating his breakfast. Natalia stared at him blankly. His handsome face showed no warmth. It was chilling.

He was taking her to meet his grandfather. Although she had never met the old man, she had heard about the Andersen family. His grandfather wielded enormous power as the founder of Andersen Corporation. Everyone in the Andersen family feared him. Even though the corporation was now managed by Lucius, who was merely a manager, the position of CEO was still undecided.

Morgan had said that he would only announce his successor on his deathbed. Therefore, Lucius had been extremely cautious all these years. Even if he lost the woman he loved, he had to endure it in front of Morgan.

"Mr. Magnus, I think I'll stay in the villa and read. I'll learn more massage techniques to help with your rehabilitation. It will be beneficial for you to stand up sooner." She didn't want to meet the king of Andersen Corporation.

Magnus looked at her. "Are you scared?"

"No, I'm not scared. I should visit your grandfather, but he must be very busy. I might be a burden to him." She absolutely couldn't go. Perhaps Morgan knew her sister. If he found out she wasn't her sister, would he kill her father?

Her heart pounded. Now was not the time to meet Morgan. She would try to delay it as long as possible.
