The Imposter Bride (Natalia and Magnus)

Chapter 105

Serve him right. After all, he was the one who carried her to his bed; she was pretty certain she didn't

wander there herself.

Without uttering a word, she finished her breakfast and headed to school.

Ever since that day, Carter had been absent from the villa for several days. Sabrina had grown

accustomed to it and didn't question him; she just focused on her schoolwork and her comic books.

***

In Melfort that afternoon, Kyler heard from Addison that Kendra had been called to Andersen

Corporation by Magnus again.

Concerned for Kendra's safety, he hurriedly made his way to Andersen Corporation.

However, when he requested to see Magnus, he was stopped by Magnus' secretary at the entrance of © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

the CEO's office.

With no other options, a desperate Kyler headed to Maplewood Manor to seek help from Natalia.

He knew that Kendra's actions often caused distress for Natalia, b

ut Kendra was his biological daughter. He couldn't just turn a blind eye if something happened to her,

could he?

After all, wasn't Magnus fond of Natalia? Her words carry more weight than theirs.

Natalia, who had been reading medical books in her room, was informed by a servant that Kyler had

come to see her.

She had a hunch about why Kyler might be here.

But she owed Kyler a lot - she wouldn't have survived till now if it wasn't for him. She might have

starved to death.

So, regardless of the situation, Natalia couldn't refuse to see him. Thus, she made her way downstairs

to meet Kyler.

"Dad, what brings you here?" she asked. Maplewood Manor wasn't a place that just anyone could

enter.

She had been married to the Sapphire Island for quite a while and had moved to Maplewood Manor

some time ago. Even though Addison and Natalia had visited her numerous times to cause trouble, her

father had never visited her.

Just thinking about it made Natalia's heart ache.

Kyler was taken aback by Natalia's drastic change in attitude towards him after just a few months.

He was slightly hurt, but recalling Kendra's precarious situation, he swallowed his sorrow and said,

"Natalia, please help your sister. I know you might be upset with me for asking this, but she's in real

danger. If you don't help her, she might die."

He still vividly remembered how ruthlessly Magnus had treated Kendra last time.

If he wasn't around and Magnus decided to harm Kendra again, and Kendra remained as stubborn as

ever, wouldn't she be doomed? The thought sent chills down his spine.

"My sister? You think she deserves to be my sister?" Natalia raised an eyebrow when she heard Kyler's

plea. She hadn't expected Kendra to approach Magnus again. She was truly relentless.

She turned to Kyler, her gaze piercing, "She forced me into marriage for her, even hired someone to

kidnap me and throw me into the sea. Is this what a sister does?"

Initially, Natalia thought that Kyler had agreed to let her marry into the Andersen family out of

helplessness, to save the Clarkson family.

She never blamed him for silently allowing Addison and the others to do as they pleased.

But after spending so much time with Magnus and experiencing so many things, Natalia realized that

the world wasn't as simple as she had thought. She'd once believed that Kyler loved her, that he was

forced into making that decision.

But Kyler's silence, his willingness to sacrifice her happiness to protect Kendra, showed that in his

heart, there was a significant difference between her and Kendra. Maybe he didn't love her, and

maybe, it was just a sense of duty.

"Natalia, I'm sorry. If there's anyone to blame, it's me. Kendra may have mistreated you, but she's still

your sister. Now she's at Andersen Corporation with Magnus, and her life is in danger. Are you just

going to stand by and watch her die?"

Kyler was taken aback by the transformation of his once obedient daughter. He almost couldn’t

recognize the girl standing in front of him.

He thought to himself: It's no wonder Addison said Natalia had changed. Now, even he, as her father,

felt that Natalia was different from before.

"Heh, just stand by and watch her die?" Kyler's words made Natalia feel like she was just a pawn of the

Clarkson family, to be used and discarded at their whim.

She couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.

Her blue eyes were slightly red, but she tried her best to hold back her tears.

She stared at Kyler, then laughed bitterly, "Magnus called Kendra to Andersen Corporation for a

reason. As long as Kendra behaves and does as he says, what could possibly happen to her?

"Instead, it's you, Dad. Last time, Kendra had me kidnapped and thrown into the sea. If it weren't for

Magnus' men, I would've been fish food by now.

"Hasn't it been a long time since that happened? Don't you know about it? All this time, have you ever

visited me at Maplewood Manor? Have you ever showed any concern for me? You haven't even asked

about me.

"The ones who want to harm me now have simply been called by Magnus to the Andersen

Corporation, and yet, here you are, in my face, berating me for not swooping in to play the hero. I

thought that, you out of everyone in the Clarkson family, still love me after all. Seems like I was wrong."

It now seemed to her that any kindness she thought she had perceived from Kyler in the past was just

a facade.

Although Kyler's actions were not as explicit as Addison's, deep down, he always favored Kendra.

Kyler initially thought that by saying these words, he would make Natalia feel guilty and prompt her to

help Kendra.

To his surprise, not only did his words fail to give him the upper hand, but he was also left at a loss for

words by Natalia's retort.

Seeing Natalia's tearful eyes, Kyler instantly felt a wave of guilt wash over him, leaving him speechless.

Although he knew he had wronged Natalia, his deep concern for Kendra led him to say, "I'm sorry,

Natalia. I know that I have let you down. But I'm out of options. If I had any sway with Magnus, I

wouldn't be here begging you.

"I know your sister has gone too far, making you take her place in marriage and now wanting you to

leave Magnus. But no matter how wicked or bad she might be, she doesn't deserve to die.

"So for the sake of your old man, can you help her just this once? From now on, I won't bother you with

your sister's issues. I will make it up to you."

He had indeed heard about the previous incident from Magnus.
