The Imposter Bride (Natalia and Magnus) novel Chapter 294

It was all her doing! But what was her grudge against Magnus that she would resort to poisoning him?

"Paul, get Chase and his team to find Belle. She's the only one who knows the source of Magnus' illness, and probably the only one with the antidote," Natalia instructed Paul.

Paul nodded and left the room.

"That Belle... When I get my hands on her, I'll tear her apart and feed her to the dogs! The evil woman tried to poison Magnus!" James fumed, his anger palpable.

Natalia turned to Dr. Frankie. "Please, Dr. Frankie, continue researching a cure. Any medicine that can alleviate Magnus' pain, however slightly, would be beneficial."

Dr. Frankie nodded solemnly. "Don't worry, ma'am. I will do everything in my power to find a cure."

"Thank you, Doctor." Natalia bowed respectfully. "Please, take care of him."

Dr. Frankie nodded and left for the pathology lab. James looked at Magnus lying on the bed and followed Dr. Frankie, leaving Natalia alone.

"Go home, Natalia. Take a shower, change, and check on Jonas. You've been away from home for days," James said, feeling pity for Natalia.

Natalia nodded and left the hospital. As she pushed open the door of their villa, she saw Jonas sitting on the couch. "Mommy, where have you and Daddy been? I missed you."

Natalia hugged Jonas tightly, holding back her tears. "Jonas, Daddy is sick. Mommy has to take care of him. Can you be a good boy and let the housekeeper take care of you for a few days?"

"Okay, Mommy. Take care of Daddy. I remember how sad he was when I was sick. I don't want him to be sad."

Natalia's heart clenched at Jonas' words. After a quick shower, she asked May to prepare some soup for Magnus.

As she entered the hospital, holding the warm soup, she saw several doctors rushing towards Magnus' room. Her heart sank. Something must have happened to Magnus.

"Magnus!" Natalia cried out as she pushed open the door to his room. Despite the doctors' attempts to restrain him, Magnus was thrashing around on the floor, his screams piercing the silence.

"Please, be gentle! Don't hurt him!" Natalia pleaded.

He used to be such a prideful man. When had he become like this? Before, he could single-handedly fight a dozen terrorists without batting an eyelid. Now, he became something like this.

"Ah--! Ah--! Let me go! Let go!" Magnus' drug addiction was acting up again. His eyes were bulging and he was screaming at the top of his lungs, looking particularly terrifying.

The doctors, mindful of Natalia's just issued orders, didn't dare to restrain Magnus too forcefully. In their panic, they were even pushed aside by Magnus.

"Ah--! Let me go, I want to go! I want tea! Give it to me now!" Magnus, who had managed to break through the encirclement, was in tears. He attacked ferociously, knocking down the bar doctors.

"Ah--" With a loud roar, the entire room started to tremble.

The cloth strips on his arm snapped instantly. He punched Dr. Frankie, who fell to the ground, nose bleeding.

Just then, James somehow produced a chain and lassoed Magnus from behind. As Magnus prepared to attack again, he was forcefully restrained.

Unable to break free from the chains, Magnus roared like a wounded wolf.

Natalia could no longer bear it. With tears, she walked up to Magnus, gently wiping away the sweat on his forehead and the blood from the corner of his mouth. "Magnus, don't be afraid. I will stay with you, and help you through this detox. Please, work with me."

In his frenzy, Magnus heare Natalia's familiar voice. He paused. His gaze softened as he looked at Natalia.

His consciousness ebbed and flowed, sometimes lucid, sometimes muddled. He heard Natalia's voice and recognized the tear-stained woman before him as the love of his life. Shaking his head and sobbing, he whispered, "Is that you, my dear? I can't stand it. Please, save me! I can't bear this feeling. It's like ants gnawing at my bones. Please, my love, would you end my suffering? I beg you!"

Natalia nearly fainted at his plea. Her heart was numbing with pain. She cradled his face, wiping the sweat and blood from his skin. "Magnus," she said. “If I could take your pain and bear it myself, I would do so without a second thought. I would willingly draw all your agony onto me if it could ease your suffering. I would do anything! But can we face this together? You will get better, Magnus. I love you!”

Natalia then grasped Magnus’ chained hand. Looking into his tortured eyes and pained expression, she began to sing softly, “I would give you my world willingly. I’m heartbroken, but I pray you hear my blessing. I would trade my life for your eternal happiness. I cherish even the pain and loneliness. From this day to the everlasting tomorrow, my love will never change..."
