The Imposter Bride (Natalia and Magnus) novel Chapter 140

Watching Magnus get up a bit unsteady on his feet, Chase knew something was off. "Magnus, are you certain you want to hit the dance floor?"

Magnus looked a bit blurry-eyed and tipsy. "Dance? Why wouldn't I? It's the Andersen Corporation celebration dinner. Let's get moving."

"Right, it's just a dance. What's the big deal?" Isabella swiftly moved to Magnus' side to support his arm, leaning into him.

Magnus pushed her away. "Back off, I can walk on my own."

Chase shook his head disapprovingly. Magnus must be out of his mind. It was obvious to anyone that Isabella was throwing herself at him, yet he was giving her the opportunity to latch onto him.

The poor guy was drunk. Normally, Magnus wouldn't even touch a woman due to his aversion.

However, Magnus was known for his hot temper, so Chase didn't voice his concerns, instead watching them leave.

On the dance floor, couples were deeply engrossed in their dances, swaying to the music.

Isabella was leaning heavily on Magnus, whispering in a way that left a lot to the imagination. "Well, Magnus, you're such a good dancer."

Magnus, feeling dizzy from the alcohol, barely heard what Isabella was saying. Suddenly, he had no desire to dance anymore. "Forget it, let's go sing in a private room."

This action was in line with Isabella's intentions. She wore a determined smile on her face, half-supporting Magnus as they walked towards the private room. A private space was perfect for intimate activities. She didn't believe she couldn't win against Natalia, that illegitimate girl.

Once she became Magnus' woman, everything would be under her control. She would reclaim her man.

Isabella, supporting Magnus, felt his muscular arm through his shirt and began to feel a feverish anticipation. She couldn't wait to be alone with him. "Let's go, Magnus."

To avoid being disturbed by others, Isabella specifically guided Magnus towards a private room.

Unbeknownst to Magnus, all this was recorded. The one recording was Kendra.

From the moment Magnus and Isabella hit the dance floor, Kendra, who came with Lucius, had been watching. She wouldn't miss any opportunity to strike against Natalia. She pulled out her phone and recorded a video of them dancing intimately, then sent it to Natalia.

Of course, she was careful when filming, trying not to capture Magnus' sour face, and intentionally making the pair seem overly intimate. Especially when Magnus was dragged towards the private room by Isabella, the scene was cleverly filmed to look like they couldn't wait to be alone.

At the same time, Natalia was discussing plans to attend a comic exhibition in France with Lexi at their mentor's house.

"Natalia, it's perfect that we three can go together. We can also visit Sabrina in France," Lexi was more than excited about the upcoming trip.

Natalia hesitated. "I'm not sure if I can go." She hadn't discussed it with Magnus yet. She was afraid he might not let her go. Actually, she was a bit reluctant to leave Magnus. After spending so much time together, despite some misunderstandings, Magnus was very affectionate towards her. She didn't want to leave him alone for France.
