The Imposter Bride (Natalia and Magnus) novel Chapter 210

She wouldn't remember her precious baby, who was taken away far too soon.

With that thought, Natalia's hand involuntarily caressed her abdomen. The scar there began to throb with a dull pain.

Once, it had nurtured a tiny life, but due to her carelessness, the little one never got to see the colorful world before his time came too soon.

Sigh...

Natalia heaved a long sigh, and a tear trickled down her cheek, for herself and her unfortunate baby.

“Buttercup, if you want to cry, let it out. Seeing you holding back emotions makes me feel worse,” Callum said, using a tissue to gently wipe the tear from her cheek.

From the moment they boarded the plane, Callum had been carefully observing Natalia’s expressions. Callum saw her downcast, almost tearful demeanor, and felt an overwhelming sense of regret; he wished he had punched that bastard Magnus a couple more times.

Magnus was the one to blame!

Natalia removed her eye mask, and guiltily looked at the bruise on Callum's face. “Cal, I’m so sorry. Does it hurt?”

Callum burst out laughing. “Not at all. Didn't you see how I made his jaw fly? If that scumbag ever crosses my path again, I’ll beat him so badly that even his parents would not recognize him!”

Natalia noticed Callum’s nonchalant behavior and felt even more guilty. She knew Callum didn’t want her to worry. He always downplayed things. As for Magnus, there would never be any interaction between them. There probably wouldn't be a next time, would there?

“Buttercup, don’t let anything upset you. Let's just consider today as having run into a mad dog and, unfortunately, getting bit. Once we reach England, we’ll forget all the unpleasantness.” Callum gazed at Natalia with deep affection. “We agreed before we left, that once we return, we will have a grand wedding. When that time comes, you have to be my beautiful bride.”

Looking into Callum’s earnest eyes, Natalia, for a moment, couldn’t bear to meet his gaze. “Cal, I…”

Seeing the obvious panic in Natalia’s eyes, Callum felt a pang in his heart. He knew Magnus was the rotten apple spoiling the barrel. Without Magnus, Natalia would definitely not be like this.

However, Callum didn’t show his feelings. His Buttercup was feeling down, but that was okay, he could wait. Once they returned to England, Callum would patiently wait for his Buttercup to say she wanted to marry him.

If one year wasn’t enough, then two years, if two years weren’t enough, then three years. Even if it took five years, it was okay. He had time. As long as his Buttercup wanted to get married, he would always be her one and only love!

As for Magnus, that jerk, if he dared to come to England, Callum certainly wouldn’t let him off easily. Callum would definitely settle old and new scores with him.

“Buttercup, we still have a while before we arrive. You should rest for now,” Callum said, replacing the eye mask on Natalia.
