The Imposter Bride

Chapter 309

couldn’t help but chuckle self–deprecatingly. “Last time Jonas visited, he whispered something to me. He told me I had to hang in there, otherwise, people would spend my money bully you, and hurt him Although his voice was barely audible, I could see the tears he was trying to hide Since then, I’ve been fighting to stay alive. I can’t stand the thought of you being hurt or being with someone else! The mere thought of his wife with another man after his death made him wish he could take Natalie with

him

“Yes, we must stay strong. We must keep fighting. Natalia murmured, pouring all her sorrow into those words

“Natalia, you’ve been taking care of me these past few days, and I can see that you’ve lost weight But I’m too selfish to let you leave my side. Am I too possessive?

Magnus asked, as he reached out and gently touched Natalia’s pointed chin

Natalia shook her head “No, I’ve been wanting to lose some weight anyway Besides, you’re the boss if you’re not going to be bossy, who will?”

“Ah, I forgot about that I am the boss. The only night thing I’ve done in my life is to have you. Natalia If I had the chance to do it all over again, I would choose the same path. Magnus said, his eyes heavy with fatigue Natalia, I’m feeling tired again I need some sleep What a useless man I’ve become Stay with me,

will you?”

Natalia held Magnus frail hand and whispered. ‘Of course But only she knew how fleeting that promise would be

“Natalia, can you give me a goodnight kiss Magnus asked, his voice barely above a whisper

Natalia bent down and planted a soft kiss on his forehead “Sleep now You’ll feel better when you wake up.”

“Mhmm, Magnus responded faintly slowly closing his eyes. His strength had already reached its limit, and the sweet, intoxicating kiss had taken whatever was left of it The long conversation with Natalia had drained him completely, and he soon fell into a deep sleep

After a while, Magnus breathing became steady, and he was lost in a peaceful slumber Natalia, however, was left with a heavy heart. Her world was crumbling around her as she faced the imminent separation Her eyes were filled with unshed tears. As she stared at the sleeping Magnus, Natalia managed a bitter smile. She was reluctant to

leave him, but she knew she had to

Magnus this time. I’m not leaving you at will I have been forced to. I must have done something terrible in my past life to deserve this. To be separated from you time and

time again

“Magnus, you must take care of yourself when I’m gone Your life is a gift I’m leaving you with. You better not waste it!” Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

With a pale face and heavy heart, Natalia knew it was time to say goodbye. She held Magnus‘ hand, studied his face, and vowed to keep this memory alive

Magnus, my love, take care

“We chied, we laughed, we looked up at the sky with a few stars still shining bright. We sang the song of time. Only then did we understand why we held each other so tight | was lucky to meet you, leaving

beautiful memones behind. The wind blew, flowers fell, and tears fell like rain because we didn’t want to part I was lucky enough to meet you, leaving a promise of ten years if we meet again, I believe I will remember you

In the middle of the night, Natalia finally stood up, bending down to plant another kiss on Magnus forehead. “Magnus, we’re parting ways now Take care!”

With these words in her heart, Natalia left the hospital room without looking back She needed to leave immediately so that Isabella would send the antidote

As Natalia hurriedly walked out of the hospital, she bumped into James He looked at Natalia, his expression confused ‘Natalia, where are you going?

Natalias eyes briefly flickered with panic She wanted to tell James everything, but she knew that if she pushed Isabella too hard, she might destroy the antidote in a fit of rage Then, no one could save Magnus

With this thought in mind. Natalia knew she had to stay calm and leave quietly. She forced a smile. “Oh, I’m just going to fetch some things.

“Do you need a lift? James kindly offered.

Natalia shook her head “No, you should stay with Magnus. I’ll be fine.”

“That’s good Natalia, I’m going to check on Magnus now Dr Frankie just called to tell me that you’ve found the antidote Natalia, you’re amazing!” es praised sincerely

Natalia gave a faint smile Am I? Maybe

“What did you say, Natalia? Can you repeat that? I didn’t quite catch it” James hadn’t heard what Natalia had said, so he asked again.

Natalia shook her head it’s nothing You should go in. I’m going to fetch some things.”

“Alright then, I’ll go in then. I’ve been so busy looking for that witch Belle, haven’t seen Mr. Magnus for days I wonder how he’s doing. Natalia, be careful on the Hurry back After saying these words, James strode into the hospital

Watching James walk away. Natalia silently prayed. “James, please take care of Magnus. I’m counting on you”

In the early hours of the morning, Natalia’s solitary figure left Melfort, headed for the harbor

As the morning sun lazily rose, its languid rays marked the start of a new day. Dr Frankie woke up early that day, hurrying to Magnus room

Yesterday, somehow. Natalia managed to get her hands on an antidote that miraculously halted the rapid deterioration of Magnus condition.

Prankie tossed and turned

all night, and then it hit him this wasn’t just any potion, it was the real deal! And the only person who could have given Natalia this antidote had to be t vanished Belle

In retrospect, he regretted letting James leave so early. He should have figured it out and informed him

Dr Frankie wasn’t convinced that Belle, with all her cunning and schemes had done this out of the goodness of her heart. He needed to talk to Natalia, to find out what this sly Belle was really up to

However, upon reaching the hospital room, he was taken aback to find a woman he didn’t recognize standing there

Dr Frankie paused, feeling a twinge of familiarity After a moment of thought, he rea yet remained nowhere to be found? What was she doing here? And where was Nata

wasn’t this Belle, the woman whose face James had been plastered all
