The Imposter Bride (Natalia and Magnus)

Chapter 118

But who would've thought that Magnus, the newly dubbed national heartthrob, despite his wheelchair-

bound condition, would find himself cuckolded?

This news was only a couple of hours old but had already caused an uproar back home. Countless

people rapidly shared and commented, the topic blazing hotter by the minute.

Lucius, who had no idea his photo with Kendra would make it to the internet, was taken aback. After

coming to his senses, he quickly arranged a press conference to set the record straight. In front of

everyone, he made it clear there was nothing going on between him and Kendra. He admitted they

used to date, but for his brother, he stepped aside. From the moment Kendra became Magnus' wife, he

had not seen her.

Yet, pictures of him and Kendra looking intimate were circulating all over town.

As everyone was puzzled over Lucius' blatant denial, a user named Kendra posted an audio recording

on a verified website. In the recording, Lucius admitted to laundering money within the company and

funneling a hefty portion of Andersen Corporation’s funds into his personal account. He even boasted

that Magnus' position as CEO wouldn't last, as he would be taking over soon. Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

The fluctuating tone and unsettling words shocked all onlookers once more. In no time, various media

outlets were reporting on the matter.

Based on the previous reports and this audio recording, countless versions of the story were created.

In the end, the most credible version revolved around Kendra, the shameless woman, who married

Magnus, the nation's beloved wheelchair-bound heartthrob. Unsatisfied, she rekindled her relationship

with Magnus' brother, Lucius.

However, Lucius played her, and the deceitful couple began a love-hate relationship. Therefore, Kendra

must have made the recording as leverage against Lucius.

All this chaos started at noon and extended into the night. The controversy did not subside as time

went on, instead, it grew more intense.

Morgan, who was aware of the whole ordeal, was furious. He clutched his heart. The whole of Melfort

was buzzing with the Andersen family's scandal!

He ordered his bodyguards to bring Magnus and Lucius back to the Andersen Family Estate

immediately, intending to get to the bottom of the matter.

Meanwhile, Anthony and Lillian were also outraged. However, the moment Lucius and Magnus stepped

through the gates of the Andersen Family Estate, Lillian kept her eyes on Lucius, wanting to scold him

but was restrained by Morgan's booming voice.

"Lucius, explain yourself!" He demanded, shaking with anger, newspapers in hand.

He threw the papers at Lucius' face!

Regardless of Kendra and Lucius' past, Kendra was now Magnus' wife, and that was a fact. Even if

Magnus didn't want her, it was his business. Lucius should have cut ties with Kendra completely. Now,

their scandal was humiliating the entire Andersen family!

He feared that he would be pointed at and ridiculed, accused of failing to teach his family morals,

leading to this disgraceful affair.

Furthermore, Lucius had been meddling with the company and even attempted to frame Magnus. He

had already received numerous complaints from shareholders demanding action.

He was furious at Lucius. If he weren't family, he would've wished him dead a thousand times over.

Despite forgiving Lucius over and over again, this was the result he got.

After Morgan's rant, a guilty Lucius glared at Magnus sitting in his wheelchair before saying,

"Grandfather, someone must be framing me. You know I would never do such a thing! Someone must

be framing me. Grandfather, leave this to me. I will get to the bottom of it!"

He was certain that Magnus was behind this. First, he sent him to the Middle East, and now this

scandal. Regret filled him for not eliminating the problem when he had the chance.

His eyes filled with murderous intent when he thought of Kendra and how she had played him.

After Lucius' explanation, Lillian quickly stepped in. "We shouldn't accuse Lucius without evidence.

Who knows, someone might be setting him up? As for Kendra, I've never liked her. Maybe someone

manipulated Kendra to seduce Lucius and took those photos."

Turning to Magnus, she continued, "You must have known about this, right Magnus? Kendra is your

wife, after all. Could you have…"

In any case, Lillian just couldn't believe that her sharp-witted son, Lucius, could be so careless as to be

captured in such a compromising photo by the media. And even if such a picture was taken, so what?

With the influence of the Andersen family, who would dare to distribute such a photo without their

consent? Therefore, Lillian was certain that Magnus was behind this scandal.

What puzzled them was, now that Magnus already had the position of CEO, why would he still plot

against his own brother?

After his misfortune nine years ago, Morgan had already handed him a substantial share of the

Andersen Corporation.

He should have spent his life peacefully on Sapphire Island, and enjoy the good life. Why would he

want to compete with Lucius for the position of CEO of Andersen Corporation? Now that things had

gone his way, he still couldn’t let Lucius go. That was why they'd never been fond of this son since he

was a child.

"Enough!" However, after hearing Lillian's words, Morgan, whose face was growing increasingly grim,

suddenly shouted, interrupting her.

In a particularly furious roar, he barked, "You've been protecting him since he was a child, and now that

he's done something like this, you're still defending him! Do you think this voice could be fake? Can't

you recognize that it's this brute's voice?"
