The Imposter Bride (Natalia and Magnus)

Chapter 112

At the Golden Groove, the music was ear-splitting inside the private rooms. Countless men and women

were intoxicated by the dazzling lights and the aroma of the booze. But the largest and most luxurious

private room was completely insulated from the outside noise, thanks to its high-end soundproofing

equipment.

"Magnus, are you sure about this? Sending Kendra to deal with Lucius?"

James took a swig of his drink, and leisurely looked at Magnus who was sitting in their midst, whose

eyes were brimming with satisfaction.

Despite his faith in Magnus' intellectual prowess, James still felt this strategy was out of character for

his friend. After all, Lucius was not someone who fought with kids gloves.

Would using Kendra against him, a woman who had been involved with Lucius for so many years, be

effective?

In James' opinion, they should have assembled a team of experts from their organization and armed

them with high-end weaponry to make Swiss cheese out of that bastard, Lucius. That sounded more

like it.

Upon hearing James' comments, Magnus, who had been leisurely sipping his drink, suddenly burst into

laughter. Lifting his head to look at James, he said, "When have I ever joked about these matters with

you guys? My methods may differ from Lucius' methods, but they are certainly not any less potent than

his foolish antics."

Sensing Magnus' confidence, Chase, who sat quietly on the side, nodded, and said, "Regardless of the

outcome, it's worth a try. The idea is to break Lucius from the inside and lead him down a path of self-

destruction. Just imagine how terrifying it would be for a man to be betrayed by his own woman!"

While he didn't fully comprehend why Magnus decided to use Kendra for this task, neither did he think

that the brute force approach advocated by James was any more sophisticated than Lucius' antics. If

real guns and bullets were sufficient, Lucius wouldn't be alive today. Magnus simply wanted to lead

Lucius to his own downfall out of respect for his grandfather.

"But I still think it's not the best approach," James interjected. He did not want to contradict Magnus but

was genuinely concerned about wasting a golden opportunity to deal with Lucius. He was itching to get

his hands dirty.

However, seeing Magnus' piercing gaze fall on him, he felt a chill run down his spine. In a rush, he

added, "I mean, Kendra has been with Lucius for so many years. What if she disobeys orders or

changes her mind midway? Wouldn't all our efforts go to waste?"

In his view, the most straightforward and effective solution was to get rid of Lucius once and for all.

Lucius had committed countless atrocities, and he'd been itching to deal with him for a long time.

Magnus wasn't worried. In fact, he laughed at James' concern. He drained his glass of its contents and

then confidently stated, "Kendra will not back out. She still yearns for the title of Mrs. Andersen; she

wanted to be the CEO's wife."

If Kendra had any feelings for Lucius, how could she have switched sides and started cozying up to

him as soon as Lucius lost the fight for the CEO's position?

Kendra was a woman blinded by vanity and greed, oblivious to her own shortcomings. The reason he

chose to use her against Lucius was merely to add some drama to the whole scenario. And he was

certain that Kendra didn't have the guts to cross him.

"Fine, as long as you're happy with your plan. If things don't work out, you can always call on me,"

James said, reluctantly accepting Magnus' decision. He had never interacted with Kendra and had no

idea what kind of person she was. But from what Magnus had shared, she seemed to be a rather

unpleasant woman. No wonder she and Lucius were a perfect match.

As James voiced these sentiments, Magnus didn't even bother to respond. Glancing at the designer

watch on his wrist and noting the late hour, he rose from his seat, moved to a wheelchair parked

nearby, and said to Chase and James, "It's getting late. I'll be heading back."

He needed to go home early to spend time with his wife, Natalia. He didn't have much time to waste

with these two singletons.

His fondness for the Golden Groove was waning. It was too noisy. He preferred staying at Maplewood

Manor and spending the entire night stargazing with Natalia. Even he found his sentiments amusing,

but he just couldn't help it. Natalia just had a special place in his heart.

"You're leaving already? You've only been here for less than half an hour!" James exclaimed, taken NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

aback by Magnus' sudden departure. While he admitted that Natalia was indeed a beautiful and kind-

hearted woman worthy of a man's love, he didn't expect Magnus to become so smitten that he wouldn't

leave the house for days on end, only to return home after just half an hour when he finally did step out.

Natalia's power over him was indeed formidable.

However, hearing James' complaints, the usually silent Chase couldn't help but laugh. He said, "We're

lucky to have him join us today, so stop complaining. Next time, we'll just go to Maplewood Manor. It'll

save Magnus the trouble of traveling back and forth. How could he bear to leave his young wife alone?"

Chase knew very well that Magnus, who had always kept his distance from women, had fallen hard this

time. But it was a good thing that Natalia was different from her sister Kendra. She was a loyal and

righteous girl and perfectly suited to be by Magnus' side.

After James heard Chase's words, he was about to scoff when Magnus, who had reached the door of

the room in his wheelchair, stopped, and turned around. With an approving look in his eyes, he said to

Chase, "That's a good suggestion. It'll save me the trouble of traveling this far. Next time, just come

over to Maplewood Manor."

After speaking his piece, Magnus didn't say anything more. He walked straight out of the private room,

through the door that was held open by the waiter. Then he disappeared from sight, leaving a

somewhat stunned James and Chase in his wake.

"That's a bit much, isn't it?" James finally said, watching Magnus leave.

At his words, Chase, who had been quietly nursing his drink, looked up with a puzzled expression on

his face. Then he said, "You, the playboy of this game we call life, wouldn't understand what true love

is. Our boss has found the real deal."

Meanwhile, Magnus was waiting for Kendra to make a move.

Kendra, having received a call from Magnus' assistant, was getting a bit anxious. She was afraid that

the deadline Magnus had given her wouldn't be enough time to get things done.

After hanging up, she quickly got out of bed, not daring to waste any more time. She put on her best

outfit, made herself up meticulously, and set out to find Lucius.
