The Imposter Bride (Natalia and Magnus) novel Chapter 217

Magnus woke up in the hospital, was discharged after half a day, and returned to the hotel. He wanted to confront Callum again. It wasn't that he was afraid of Callum, but rather, Callum had saved Natalia, and he knew if he pushed too hard, Natalia would inevitably side with that man.

Magnus instructed Paul to investigate Callum's connections in the UK immediately. Meanwhile, he busied himself with his business on his laptop.

When Paul returned in the evening, he brought shocking news to Magnus. Natalia was the biological daughter of Rowell, and like him, she had lost her memory for five years after being rescued from the sea.

She had only recently learned of her lineage. In order to reclaim her place in the McKinney family, her mother had exchanged her life for Natalia’s place in the McKinney family.

Before Natalia had the chance to get to know her mother, she had died too soon, leaving Natalia to slowly recover the painful memories from five years ago.

Magnus felt a storm raging in his heart. No wonder Natalia wouldn't forgive him. Rowell was a selfish man, and any association with him would tarnish Natalia's purity.

Moreover, Natalia didn't want to return to the McKinney family at all. According to Paul’s investigation, Callum had recently taken her to visit the Henley family, where her sister had attempted to set her up.

Magnus was even more determined to take Natalia away. He would never leave her in such a complicated situation. All she needed in this life was him. There was no need to acknowledge that scoundrel Rowell!

Magnus rose to his feet and looked out at the sunset through the lingering snowflakes. He turned around and walked out of the room.

Three days passed. Magnus hadn't sought out Natalia, and Callum hadn't pressured Natalia about their engagement.

Natalia had won the crown design contest, and job invitations were flying in like snowflakes from all over.

Natalia looked at the sincere invitations and was deeply touched. She decided to take up a job offer. Among the many invitations, one from a multinational corporation called Orange Horizon seemed particularly suitable. The CEO was rumored to be from Melfort.

Although Natalia harbored resentment for Melfort, she was born there and felt a certain affection for it.

Unable to dissuade her, Callum agreed to let her work.

After Lena's death, Natalia inherited all her assets, including an apartment closest to the McKinney family. She told Callum that she wanted to move into her mother's house.

Callum vehemently disagreed. Natalia took his hand and said, "Callum, in this life, you're the only family I have. I didn't get a chance to get to know my mother before she died. This was her last wish. I want to try to understand what kind of world she lived in."

Callum looked at Natalia, who seemed to have grown up suddenly, and felt reassured. After the last incident, Alice had broken her leg and no longer dared to provoke Callum. She had calmed down considerably.

On Natalia's insistence, Callum agreed to let her move into Lena's old apartment.

The apartment was simply decorated, all Lena's masterpieces. Natalia slowly sorted through Lena's things. She saw a large number of books in the study of their hometown. She could imagine how much Lena must have missed her homeland.

After tidying up everything, Natalia went to report to the company the next day.

The HR manager immediately led her to the office with utmost respect. "Ms. Clarkson, this is Orange Horizon's contract. Please take a look and sign it. Your office is on the twenty-first floor. Based on your previous achievements, we are offering you the position of Chief Designer and Director. We hope you can fully utilize your talents."

The HR Manager was a man in his forties and British. His mannerisms indicated years of experience in the field.

Natalia nodded. “Thank you for your trust. I will do my best and not let you down.”

She glanced at the contract. It wasn’t a big deal. The only clause was that she had to stay at Orange Horizon for five years. Leaving midway would be a breach of contract and cost her two hundred million.
