The Imposter Bride (Natalia and Magnus) novel Chapter 95

Addison was at her wit's end. It seemed that Kendra would no longer listen to her.

Feeling helpless, she offered a few words of comfort before leaving the hospital.

She thought of asking Kyler to talk to Natalia once again. Maybe Natalia would listen to her father. There might still be a chance to turn things around.

She dialed Kyler’s number and explained her thoughts.

On the other end of the line, Kyler closed his eyes and sighed wearily.

...

"Why are you grinning at me like that all day?"

When Magnus was looking at the documents, he also called Natalia into the study.

He had her sit on the couch, sharing the same space with him for the entire afternoon.

But she could feel the gaze of the handsome man across the desk, watching her and constantly smiling.

Puzzled, Natalia finally raised her head and asked him.

Magnus chuckled softly.

He put down the file in his hand and waved her over, "Come here, my dear."

"Okay," Natalia was used to his tender way of calling her with all sorts of nicknames.

Even though she was blushing, she obediently walked over.

As soon as Natalia approached Magnus, he reached out and pulled her onto his lap.

"Wait, your wound hasn't healed yet. What if it tears?" Fearing for his injury, Natalia blushed and whispered.

Truth be told, she had missed his embrace since he had been hugging her so often before his injury.

But now, she had to hold back since he was still recovering.

After his injury, Natalia had been taking care of him cautiously, afraid that any carelessness would tear his wound. This had kept her away from him for quite some time, and Magnus had been restraining himself.

Now, seeing Natalia so close and enchanting, Magnus couldn't help but have some improper thoughts. He didn't care about the injuries and just embraced her petite body, resting his forehead against hers. Then, he softly said,

"My wound is fine now, but there's another part of me that's aching."

"Aching?" Upon hearing his words, Natalia thought he had injured somewhere else.

She anxiously asked, "Where does it hurt? Tell me quickly. If not, I'll get a doctor."

After all, Magnus had been injured while trying to save her.

If Magnus was uncomfortable, it was her duty to take good care of him.

Before Natalia could finish, Magnus placed his slender finger on her lips, then he led her hand to touch the part of him that was uncomfortably swollen.

However, as soon as Natalia realized what she was touching, she jumped off his lap, her face burning, and stuttered, "You... you... are getting out of line!"

"Why, my dear," he chuckled at her embarrassment, "It's quite normal for a husband to be 'out of line' with his wife. Or would you rather I act this way with other women?"
