The Imposter Bride (Natalia and Magnus) novel Chapter 51

The girl rose to her feet, with a bitter smile tugging at the corners of her mouth. “Mr. Andersen, it’s me, Kendra. Your wife.” She had had one too many glasses of wine, but it was the only way she could muster the courage to stand next to him. Magnus’ lips curved into a mocking smile when she introduced herself as Kendra. “And what brings you here?”

“I...I came to see you, Mr. Andersen. I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have let that bitch Natalia take my place...I...I shouldn’t have lied to you. I’m sorry, I just wanted...”

“What is it that you want?” Her sentence was cut short by his icy tone. “To switch places back? Huh?” He gripped her wrists that were restlessly moving on his thighs.

“So, you’re not put off by my disability now?” He stared at her coldly.

“No...No, I’m not. I’m your wife, I don’t mind. I’m sorry.” Kendra held back the intense pain in her wrist and was struggling to rise, but he pushed her back down.

"But I mind! Kendra, you're so naive. Do you think you can have whatever you want? Well, let me tell you, you're not meant to be on the island. If it had been you living here, you'd have been miserable. Be smart and bring your papers tomorrow to finalize the divorce."

Magnus pulled out a handkerchief from his pocket, wiped his hands, and tossed it on the ground. He then slid towards his car.

"No, I won't divorce you, Magnus. Since you took the CEO position, you have to marry me, because I'm the wife of a CEO!" Kendra's head was spinning, she didn't even understand what she was saying.

He ignored her, climbed into his car, and Paul closed the door behind him. The car slowly pulled away from the Golden Groove.

At the entrance of the Golden Groove stood a man, Lucius, who had just come down from the building. He had waited for hours and hadn't seen Magnus.

He clenched his teeth in anger. Very well, Magnus, if you're heartless, don't blame me for being ruthless!

When he came down, he saw Kendra kneeling on the ground, apologizing to Magnus, claiming she didn't mind his disability. His blood boiled in outrage. Kendra was indeed harboring fantasies about Magnus. The woman he had genuinely loved for all these years turned out to be utterly...despicable! Even without the CEO position, Lucius had more than enough to offer to Kendra.

He watched the woman crawling and begging on the ground like a dog. His anger caused veins to bulge on his forehead.

After Magnus left, he strode forward, grabbing Kendra, and slapped her across the face. Kendra hadn’t reacted yet, but the burning pain on her face made her look up, only to see Lucius' face, cold and terrifying. "Lucius, why did you hit me?"

She clutched her face in confusion. Lucius had always been extremely indulgent with her, and now he had hit her!

"Why? Can't wait to seduce Magnus, Kendra? I didn't think you'd stoop so low. The moment he becomes CEO, you're so eager to latch onto him. Don't forget, you're my woman. Do you think he wants you to go back to him? Stop dreaming, break up with him properly, and don't make me a cuckold!"

He grabbed her and stormed off towards the parking lot.

"Let go! ...Lucius, you bastard!" Kendra was struck and Lucius even dragged her; her wrist was killing her.

She had never hated Lucius as much as she did at that moment. He had actually hit her! On what grounds did he have to hit her!

Regardless of how much Kendra struggled, Lucius opened the car door, threw her in, and locked it. He got into the driver's seat and was ready to drive home. Kendra grabbed his shoulder from behind. "Let me out, I'm not getting in your car, Lucius. I didn't know you were such a lowlife that hit women. I misjudged you!"

"Heh heh..." Lucius sneered. "Only now you realize you made a mistake? Too late! Sit tight, or I wouldn't mind giving Magnus a live show of how much you enjoy being beneath me."
