The Imposter Bride (Natalia and Magnus) novel Chapter 82

There were no servants around, and she had a peculiar habit; she was afraid of the dark and thunderstorms.

"The CEO will be back, and we've got a housemaid, Marian, who will see to your needs," Jack glanced at Sabrina, "If there's nothing else, Ms. Shaw, I'll be on my way."

"Alright. Thank you." Having a housemaid was enough. She wouldn't be alone in such a grand mansion. She did enjoy solitude, but being in an unfamiliar place was a different matter.

Sabrina gently pushed open the door. The mansion was newly renovated, with luxurious furniture that spoke volumes about the wealth of the person living there. She noticed a pair of new women's slippers on the shoe rack and put them on.

In the kitchen, a woman was arranging ingredients. Sabrina approached her, "Hello."

The woman immediately looked up, smiling at Sabrina, "Hi, are you Ms. Shaw? I'm Marian, I'll be taking good care of you. Anything you need, just let me know."

Marian enthusiastically guided Sabrina to the sofa. "Have a rest, dinner will be ready soon." After taking Sabrina's luggage upstairs, Marian went back to the kitchen.

Late at night, Sabrina was alone in her room after Marian had served her dinner and left.

The mansion was indeed hers alone. There were six bedrooms upstairs, and she chose one at the end to settle into.

Looking around, she noticed that only one room had been occupied while the others were empty. One of them was locked. That room must belong to her fiancé, whom she had not met yet.

She looked out of the window at the twinkling stars in the night sky, feeling the cool breeze on her face.

After taking a shower, she sat on the bed and logged onto her Messenger. Seeing Lexi and Natalia online, the three of them started chatting happily.

Sabrina: [Hi, darlings. Did you miss me, or you just knew I'd be lonely and decided to keep me company?]

Lexi: [Aren't you with your fiancé? You just moved in today. You should ask him to show you around.]

Sabrina: [I haven't met him yet. I'm all alone in this huge mansion. (Sad)]

Natalia: [Sabrina, where is he?]

Sabrina: [I don't know, and I don't care. I'll go to school tomorrow to see if there are any courses I can join.]

Lexi: [Oh, my dear Sabrina, how can your fiancé be so heartless? Leaving such a beautiful lady alone in a mansion, how can he bear it?]

Sabrina: [Oh, please. I'm fine on my own.]

Natalia: [Take care of yourself, call us if you need anything.]

Sabrina: [Don't worry about me. I can handle anything. Haha, nothing will happen.]

She closed her phone and shut her eyes.

Suddenly in the middle of the night, a thunderstorm started, waking her up. She was so frightened by the thunder and the trees dancing in the wind outside her window that she pulled the blanket over her head. She hid under the blanket until dawn.

After a while, someone suddenly pulled the blanket off her.

"Ah!" She screamed.
