The tall, black-suited bodyguards lined up on command, hoisting Kendra between them. Kendra's cries rang out, "Magnus, what are you doing? Where are you taking me?"
Magnus didn’t answer, and couldn’t even be bothered to look at Kendra. Carter, however, sneered at the frightened woman whose face had turned pale. “What are we doing? You know better than anyone! You've killed Mrs. Andersen and the child. You're done for! You've lost all shame.”
Kendra, trembling in fear, refused to give up, crying loudly, “I didn’t kill Natalia. Magnus, you can’t imprison me!”
“Snap!”
Natalia's phone was thrown at Kendra's feet, showing a video of Kendra in a heated sexual encounter with a man whose profile picture had been changed to Magnus. Kendra swallowed hard, realizing that Magnus knew about the fake video she had made. Damn, even after Natalia’s supposed death by drowning, she still wouldn’t leave Kendra alone.
“Let me make it clear to you, Kendra. I told you not to mess with my wife, and yet you did. I will make you pay!” Magnus waved his hand. “Take her away!”
Kendra’s face was as white as paper. She cursed under her breath, crying out, “Magnus, it wasn’t me! Lucius forced me to do it!”
“You dare to lie! You've done such despicable things to upset Mrs. Andersen and still refuse to admit it! Kendra, you’ve truly sunk to a new low.” Carter's mouth curled in disgust.
Kendra, however, refused to admit to anything. She knew Magnus’ ruthless temperament. If he found out she had tarnished his reputation and caused the death of Natalia and the child, he would never let her go.
“Magnus, you must believe me! Lucius forced me to do it. If it weren’t for his threats, I would never have sent that video to my sister!”
Magnus didn’t want to hear another word from her. He signaled the bodyguards to move. “Get her out of here!”
“Magnus, you can’t treat me like this!” Kendra was terrified. She knew that once she was taken away, there would be no good end for her.
She had heard that Magnus had a wolf. Could it be that the basement was where Magnus kept his wolf? She screamed, “Magnus, I am Natalia’s sister! How can you do this to me?”
Unfortunately for Kendra, Magnus’ response was cold. “You are not worthy of being my wife’s sister. I think she will be comforted watching from above as I punish you.” After speaking, he looked out at the blue sky. His gaze was as calm as the ocean.
Kendra’s face turned ashen. She knew that Magnus always followed through with his threats.
“Mr. Andersen, please don’t! It wasn’t my fault. Lucius and Isabella forced me into this. I’m a victim too! Please, don’t kill me, spare me.”
Kendra’s pleas echoed throughout the mansion, sounding grating and shrill. Magnus sneered, “Everyone who tries to harm my wife will pay the price. Don’t worry, none of them will get away. As for you, I certainly won't kill you." A cruel smile appeared on his face. "I'll make you suffer slowly.”
