The Imposter Bride (Natalia and Magnus)

Chapter 150

Thankfully, she made a swift exit, sparing them any embarrassment.

She'd kept her phone off for days, not ready to face him. Despite touring every corner of France with

her friend Sabrina, a cloud of melancholy loomed over her.

When she discovered that Sabrina's fiancé was Carter, she wanted to disappear. But Carter, with a sly

grin, reassured her, "Natalia, Magnus has asked me to keep an eye on you. If you are slightly hurt

while you're in France, he holds me responsible."

Hearing this, Natalia was taken aback. He knew she was in France and had asked Carter to look out

for her.

Just as she was starting to feel better, a text message from Kendra knocked her back to square one.

Leaning against the wall, she felt defeated. Magnus, you were so cruel. She realized what she had lost

in this gamble.

The art exhibition was in full swing and under the guidance of her mentor, Natalia's comic "Ghost" won

the second prize.

"Natalia, come over and introduce your artwork," Lexi beckoned, signalling Natalia who was engrossed

in her phone.

"Okay." Suppressing the overwhelming sadness and hopelessness, Natalia managed to muster a faint

smile and approached Lexi.

Despite her attempts to appear normal, she was struggling internally. After the exhibition ended, Natalia

excused herself to return to her hotel to change clothes, wanting to leave early.

Back in her hotel room, she finally broke down, tears streaming down her pale face.

“Magnus, we had become strangers. If there was no love to begin with, why did you give me hope?”

Wiping away her tears, she stood by the window, looking at the blood-red sunset, vowing not to shed

another tear.

Since her mentor decided to go back to school immediately, after the competition, Natalia was

accompanied by Lexi and returned to Melfort disheartened. Before they even landed, Magnus received

a call from Chase, "Magnus, your wife is about to land."

"What?" Magnus couldn't believe it. He rushed out of the meeting leaving the company executives in

the lurch, "Are you sure about the timing?"

Chase held the phone away from his ear, afraid of Magnus' loud voice, "Yes, she'll be back in about

half an hour. She's about to land."

The news brought a ray of hope to Magnus, and he shouted into the phone, "I'm going to pick her up."

The thought of having his wife back filled him with joy. He had been missing her terribly. Without her,

the world seemed colorless.

He hurried to the airport, eager to greet her.

The high-ranking officials of the office sat waiting, yet Magnus did not return. They started gossiping

amongst themselves, but couldn’t leave halfway through their meeting. They had to patiently wait for

their CEO to return.

Meanwhile, their CEO was rushing towards the airport, filled with thoughts of reuniting with Natalia.

How could he have the mood to care about them?

This time, Magnus didn't encounter any traffic jams and smoothly reached the airport. He deliberately

stood in the most conspicuous spot, fearing that Natalia wouldn't be able to spot him.

He was waiting for his little miss to rush into his arms. Upon thinking of the soft figure that would be in

his arms, his body heated up, causing an unexpected reaction. He quickly adjusted his trousers, Shit!

He actually had a boner by merely thinking about her.

As Magnus anxiously waited, the plane returning to Melfort slowly landed. Before long, Natalia and

Lexi, along with their accompanying professor and another student, emerged from the security NôvelDrama.Org content.

passage, pushing their luggage along.

Natalia was dressed in a blue dress, her long hair flowing, and her small face devoid of expression.

That pretty face instantly made Magnus's heart ache.

She had lost so much weight.

Because her mentor was with her, Magnus refrained from rushing to embrace his wife. When he saw

Natalia and Lexi hailing a cab, he quickly approached them, "Nat, I'm here."

Magnus walked over, carefully observing his wife. He reached out to hold her hand and take her

luggage, as if fearing she would run away again.

Natalia was surprised to see Magnus there. Was he there to pick her up? Shouldn't he be with Isabella

at this point?

He still remembered her as his wife. How ironic, men could also play such roles.

Natalia closed her eyes momentarily, then gently pulled her hand away and walked past Magnus.

Magnus was taken aback by Natalia's reaction. He had expected her to run into his arms and give him

a big hug. Instead, she ignored him and walked away.

"Nat!" His low voice tinged with anger. She went away for more than a week without saying a word, and

came back ignoring him. Even if there was a misunderstanding, she had to give him a chance to

explain it clearly in person, didn't she?

Natalia heard Magnus call out but didn't stop; she continued to walk towards the airport exit.

Magnus, growing impatient, ran after her, "Natalia, stop right there."

Seeing Magnus approaching, Natalia quickened her pace, urging Lexi, who was unaware of the

situation, "Let's go."

Lexi was taken aback. She turned around and said, "Natalia, Magnus is here to pick you up. You

should go back and clear things up with him."

"No need. Lexi, I'll come to your place." Natalia tugged Lexi and started striding out of the airport.

Lexi had no choice but to jog after Natalia. She glanced behind her.

Magnus was hot on their heels, his handsome face dark with anger. Lexi gave a mysterious smirk,

"Want me to ward him off for you?"

Natalia rushed forward in a panic, "Let's just keep moving. We don't want to stir up trouble."

With Magnus' fiery temper, when he got stubborn, it can be quite intimidating. She didn't want to deal

with him now. She'd break up with him in a few days.
