The Imposter Bride (Natalia and Magnus) novel Chapter 184

The phone line to Magnus was dead. Lucius immediately dialed the landline of Sapphire Island, refusing to believe that Magnus could switch off all his lines of communication.

The phone rang. Magnus thought it was Morgan calling to appease his anger. He picked up.

"Did you kidnap my woman?" It was Lucius again!

"Your woman? Heh, do you want to know?" Magnus sneered.

Lucius' heart pounded at his words! "Where have you taken Kendra?" Lucius’ voice was filled with anxiety.

"Heh, Kendra, huh? She might be having a blast with some guys in a Mexican underground casino right now. Lucius, do you want to come see?"

He signaled to his bodyguard. The bodyguard immediately sent a video to Lucius from his phone.

It was a video of Kendra in a foursome.

"Enjoy watching your woman having fun. Learn something. Ha-ha!" Magnus hung up the phone, feeling a sense of relief. He wheeled himself towards the elevator and went upstairs.

Lucius hung up the phone and then saw the video sent by the bodyguard. He was shocked, and his hands gripped his phone so hard. He wished he could destroy the world. Magnus was torturing Kendra. Even though Lucius was disappointed in Kendra, seeing her like this hurt him.

His heart was filled with rage. He squeezed out the words through gritted teeth. “Magnus, I will make sure you have no place to rest in peace!”

A few days later, Magnus sat in his wheelchair and was being pushed by Chase, to the bridge where Natalia had fallen off.

The cool sea breeze blew by, and beneath were the relentless waves. Listening to the sound of the sea, Magnus asked quietly, "Still no news about Natalia, huh?"

Chase sighed softly, "Yes, we send people to search every day, but there's nothing."

Magnus closed his eyes slightly. His face looked exhausted. "I see, you can go now. I want to be alone!"

Carter hesitated. "Magnus, if Natalia is still alive, she wouldn't want to see you like this. Lucius has taken over the Andersen Corporation. You can't be in this state."

"What's the difference? Without my wife, what do I need the company for!" Magnus said, closing his eyes and waving Chase away. "Go."

Chase acknowledged Magnus’ stubborn behavior and didn't insist. He shook his head and left, leaving Magnus alone on the bridge.

Magnus wheeled himself to the edge of the bridge, silently looking down at the raging sea. The sea was roaring and splashing, and the waves were mesmerizing.

“My wife, where are you now? Can you come back? I was wrong!”

In the distance, a vendor was selling a big bunch of red roses. He was yelling out to potential customers while walking towards Magnus. Magnus looked at the bright red roses. He had never given his lady roses before.

Chase stood at a distance watching the vendor. He hesitated for a moment, thinking it was just a flower vendor and there wouldn’t be any problem. He stood there as Magnus had instructed, not daring to disturb him.

"If you know what's good for you, you will let go of him now, then I might consider leaving you as a whole corpse." Chase was furious, and silently blaming himself for being careless and letting the assassin take Magnus hostage.

"Shut up!" The assassin was furious. "I'm just a lowlife. I can exchange my life for Mr. Andersen's; it seems like a good deal. Don't come over, or I will do what I say!"

"Heh, you don't need to kill me!" Magnus chuckled, looking at the roaring waves. Natalia had driven off the same way. If he could, he would’ve liked to join her in atonement!

Magnus used his strength to break free from the assassin, rolled over the railing, and fell into the sea. The hitman hadn't expected Magnus to pull such a stunt, leaving him in a state of shock and confusion! He had thought that if Magnus handed over the money, he would take it and disappear with his wife and children fromt Melfort.

But Magnus had thrown himself into the water.

"Magnus!" Chase shouted in disbelief. He immediately stared at the churning waves before diving in after him.

The bodyguards trailing behind followed suit and plunged into the water.

The flower vendor turned tail and ran.

Magnus, swallowed by the waves, sank into the ocean with a smile on his face. He tried to swim, but he had forgotten his leg was still injured.

He had to find his wife!

Saltwater rushed into his ears, nose, and mouth, draining him of all his strength. His body slowly sank deeper. The only sound he could hear was the crashing of the waves against his consciousness as it blurred into nothingness.
