The Imposter Bride (Natalia and Magnus) novel Chapter 300

Dr. Frankie and a few doctors rushed over to assist Magnus, who had fallen unconscious with his eyes tightly shut.

Natalia clumsily rose from the floor, her mind consumed by Magnus' condition. Her voice trembled as she questioned Dr. Frankie, "Has Magnus... has he fainted again?"

After settling Magnus on the hospital bed and conducting a brief examination, Dr. Frankie shook his head and said, "Ma’am, Mr. Andersen just had a fit because of withdrawal symptoms. Now that he has passed out, he doesn't have the strength to fight it anymore. You know, after this long struggle, his body is already on the verge of collapse."

Touching Magnus' disheveled hair, Natalia's heart ached terribly. The once vibrant Magnus now looked so helpless, all because of that damned drug-laced tea.

"Ma’am, I think it would be better to restrain Mr. Andersen. This way, when his addiction flares up again, he won't harm himself or others," Dr. Frankie whispered.

Reluctantly, Natalia nodded. "Alright, be careful with him. Don't let him get hurt."

Dr. Frankie signaled, and the other doctors brought in the chains they had prepared earlier. Unable to bear the sight of the shiny, cold chains, Natalia turned away, her gaze falling on the setting sun outside the window. How much longer would this ordeal last? She felt like she was about to break.

Meanwhile, chaos erupted at Andersen Corporation due to Magnus' prolonged absence, which unsettled the major shareholders.

Whenever they tried to contact Magnus, they were met with a stammering Natalia, which only increased their suspicions. For their own interests, the shareholders decided to approach Lucius.

Lucius, who had been lying low for fear of Magnus discovering his misdeeds, saw an opportunity when the shareholders came to him. After assuring them of his commitment to resolving the issue and indulging them with some lavish entertainment, Lucius began his investigation.

Soon, his subordinates reported that Magnus' absence was due to a serious illness. However, the nature of the illness was unknown due to tight information control.

To uncover the truth about Magnus' condition, Lucius decided to visit Morgan. As he entered Morgan's mansion, Lucius was met with a cold snort, "What brings you here? I don't want to see you."

By now, Morgan knew about Lucius' past misdeeds and was disgusted by him, even considering kicking him out.

Desperate, Lucius feigned tears. "Grandpa, I know I was wrong. But I've come to see you about something important. It's about Magnus... he's sick."

Morgan, who was enjoying tea in the courtyard, was so shocked that he dropped his cup. "What? Magnus is sick? What's wrong with him?"

"Yes, Grandpa. He's currently in our private hospital. If you don't believe me, you can come and see for yourself," Lucius said with a smile hidden underneath his feigned concern.
