The Imposter Bride (Natalia and Magnus)

Chapter 140

Watching Magnus get up a bit unsteady on his feet, Chase knew something was off. "Magnus, are you

certain you want to hit the dance floor?"

Magnus looked a bit blurry-eyed and tipsy. "Dance? Why wouldn't I? It's the Andersen Corporation

celebration dinner. Let's get moving."

"Right, it's just a dance. What's the big deal?" Isabella swiftly moved to Magnus' side to support his

arm, leaning into him.

Magnus pushed her away. "Back off, I can walk on my own."

Chase shook his head disapprovingly. Magnus must be out of his mind. It was obvious to anyone that

Isabella was throwing herself at him, yet he was giving her the opportunity to latch onto him.

The poor guy was drunk. Normally, Magnus wouldn't even touch a woman due to his aversion.

However, Magnus was known for his hot temper, so Chase didn't voice his concerns, instead watching

them leave.

On the dance floor, couples were deeply engrossed in their dances, swaying to the music.

Isabella was leaning heavily on Magnus, whispering in a way that left a lot to the imagination. "Well,

Magnus, you're such a good dancer."

Magnus, feeling dizzy from the alcohol, barely heard what Isabella was saying. Suddenly, he had no

desire to dance anymore. "Forget it, let's go sing in a private room."

This action was in line with Isabella's intentions. She wore a determined smile on her face, half-

supporting Magnus as they walked towards the private room. A private space was perfect for intimate

activities. She didn't believe she couldn't win against Natalia, that illegitimate girl.

Once she became Magnus' woman, everything would be under her control. She would reclaim her

man.

Isabella, supporting Magnus, felt his muscular arm through his shirt and began to feel a feverish

anticipation. She couldn't wait to be alone with him. "Let's go, Magnus."

To avoid being disturbed by others, Isabella specifically guided Magnus towards a private room.

Unbeknownst to Magnus, all this was recorded. The one recording was Kendra.

From the moment Magnus and Isabella hit the dance floor, Kendra, who came with Lucius, had been

watching. She wouldn't miss any opportunity to strike against Natalia. She pulled out her phone and

recorded a video of them dancing intimately, then sent it to Natalia.

Of course, she was careful when filming, trying not to capture Magnus' sour face, and intentionally

making the pair seem overly intimate. Especially when Magnus was dragged towards the private room

by Isabella, the scene was cleverly filmed to look like they couldn't wait to be alone.

At the same time, Natalia was discussing plans to attend a comic exhibition in France with Lexi at their

mentor's house.

"Natalia, it's perfect that we three can go together. We can also visit Sabrina in France," Lexi was more

than excited about the upcoming trip.

Natalia hesitated. "I'm not sure if I can go." She hadn't discussed it with Magnus yet. She was afraid he

might not let her go. Actually, she was a bit reluctant to leave Magnus. After spending so much time

together, despite some misunderstandings, Magnus was very affectionate towards her. She didn't want

to leave him alone for France.

"Oh come on! How can you miss such a great opportunity!" Lexi playfully tackled Natalia onto the

couch, tickling her. "Admit it, you don't want to leave Mr. Andersen, right?"

"No way," Natalia managed to escape Lexi's tickling, sitting up with a flushed face. "That's not true.

You're making it up."

"Really? Are you sure I'm making it up?" Lexi winked at Natalia with a teasing smile. "Come on, tell me,

did you and Mr. Andersen have a wild night after he carried you off last time?"

Seeing Lexi's provoking smile, Natalia's face turned even redder. She punched Lexi playfully. "Aren't

you a lady? How can you say such things? I'm not going to entertain your nonsense."

Just as she finished speaking, her phone beeped with a new message.

"Look, it must be a flirty message from your Mr. Andersen. Go and enjoy." Lexi's smile grew even wider.

Natalia felt even more flustered. She hadn't attended the company's celebration because she didn't like

such occasions, and she was planning to participate in the art contest in France. However, she didn't

know if he was upset about it. She was curious to see who would text her at this time though. What if it

was Magnus?

A wave of joy spread across Natalia's heart as she took out her phone and headed towards the

balcony, trying to escape Lexi's constant teasing. She unlocked her phone and saw a new video

message, surprisingly from Kendra.

Why would Kendra send her anything good? Natalia was about to delete it when Lexi, who had quietly

followed her, snatched the phone from her hand. "Let's see what kind of sweet nothings Mr. Andersen

has sent."

Lexi only intended to tease Natalia and didn't really want to snatch the phone. Natalia, trying to dodge,

inadvertently opened the video that she had received but hadn't yet deleted.

The sound of the gala's music from the video drew both Natalia and Lexi's attention. Due to the dim

lighting on the dance floor, the video wasn't very clear. However, Natalia instantly recognized Magnus,

who was dancing with Isabella.

The two embraced on the dance floor, Isabella in a seductive backless outfit, pressed closely against

Magnus' chest. Magnus' large hand rested on Isabella's exposed skin.

In an instant, a profound bitterness spread across Natalia's heart, forming bitter fruits of sorrow. She

tried to suppress the piercing pain in her heart, her hands beginning to tremble. So he was still in love

with that woman. He had her in his arms because she didn't attend the banquet, so he brought Isabella

as his date.

A hollow laughter escaped her. Her heart felt as if a chunk had been ruthlessly gouged out, the pain Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

was unbearable.

So, his claim of loving only her was a lie. She was the one deceiving herself all along.

Indeed, she was not a girl from a rich family. She didn't even dare to attend a celebration banquet. How

could she ever be worthy of him, the high and mighty CEO of Andersen Corporation.

Natalia swayed, her eyes desperately holding back tears as she leaned weakly against the wall behind

her.

Lexi naturally watched the video too, fuming on behalf of Natalia, "This is too much! Natalia, Magnus is

getting cozy with that woman again! Don't be sad. We don't need this kind of womanizer."

Natalia didn't say a word. A bitter smile crossed her face, masking her own humiliation. Her heart was

silently weeping, the pain so intense she didn't even have the strength to cry out loud.

Looking at Natalia's smile, which was worse than crying, Lexi opened her arms and hugged the girl,

gently patting Natalia's shoulder, "Natalia, don't be too upset. If you want to cry, just let it out. Don't

keep it in your heart. It's really not worth it for this kind of unfaithful man."
