The Imposter Bride (Natalia and Magnus)

Chapter 325

Like a dagger, Callum's words ruthlessly stabbed Magnus' heart, causing him unbearable pain with

each jab.

Magnus lifted his head, his eyes filled with guilt and regret. "Yes, I am the one to blame for all this. I

was too careless and let such a foolish thing happen to me. No matter the cost, I will find her!" He

vowed to bring Natalia back to him. He knew she couldn't return to him, but he could go to her.

"Darling, I will find you, even if I have to search to the ends of the earth. Jonas and I can't go on without

you!" He clutched his chest, allowing the pain to radiate throughout his body.

Lexi reached out and gave Callum a pinch, scolding him in a low voice, "If you can help the couple with

their trouble, just do it. If not, then just shut up. Why are you making such snide remarks?!"

Callum touched his nose in embarrassment. "Lexi, I was just sticking up for Natalia, that's all." After

being reprimanded, Callum fell silent, hanging his head low like a hen-pecked husband.

Seeing Callum quiet down, Lexi turned her attention to the disheartened Magnus. "Magnus, I'm truly

sorry to hear about you and Natalia. I didn't expect that after all the twists and turns, you two would still

end up apart. Go find her. She needs you. We'll also keep an eye out for Natalia, and I'll let you know

as soon as we hear something. Go now; don't let her wander alone for too long."

After finishing, Lexi dragged Callum out of Magnus' office.

In the elevator, Callum was not pleased with Lexi's actions. He frowned in discontent. "Lexi, why didn't

you let me give that jerk Magnus a good beating? Is it because you think I'm still in love with Buttercup?

Lexi, I admit I still care about her, but I swear, it's purely platonic. Please don't overthink." As he spoke,

he stole glances at Lexi, afraid that she would misconstrue his feelings for Natalia.

Lexi adjusted her hair in the elevator mirror before looking at Callum. "You're the one who's

overthinking. I only agreed to try dating you for a while. That doesn't mean I'm tied to you forever.

There are so many handsome men in the world. If one doesn't work out, there will always be another."

Upon hearing this, Callum's eyes widened in panic. He quickly wrapped his arms around Lexi. "No!

Lexi, how can you do this to me? You have no choice but to be with me for the rest of your life. There

can't be a next one, never ever!"

The mere thought of Lexi being with another guy hurt Callum's heart. He was determined not to let her

out of his sight again.

Callum's sudden embrace took Lexi aback. She was thankful that they were alone in the elevator. But

thinking of the security cameras, she knew the guard watching the footage would be having a good

laugh.

"Callum, can you act a bit more mature? This is Melfort. Can you show me some respect?!" Lexi

complained, stomping on Callum's foot with her heel in anger.

Callum winced in pain and finally let go of Lexi, grinning sheepishly as he defended himself, "Lexi, what

can I do? I can't control myself when I'm with you! Do you know how worried I was when you left?"

He was scared when she was almost eaten by a bear, but his heart was broken into pieces when she

ran away. He couldn't imagine his life without her.

Lexi shot Callum a glance, her heart secretly filled with sweetness. This guy always said romantic

things at the most inappropriate times and places.

The elevator soon reached the ground floor. Lexi stepped out and looked at Callum. "Let's go."

"Okay," Callum agreed absently, then asked, "Um, where are we going?"

Lexi gave Callum another look, her cheeks flushing a rosy pink. "Where else could we be going? We're

going to see my parents, of course."

"Great! Let's go see them!" Callum exclaimed enthusiastically, causing the lobby staff to turn and stare.

Embarrassed by all the attention, Lexi walked briskly towards the exit. "Hmph, I'm not talking to you

anymore!"

"Lexi, wait for me, wait for me!" Callum shouted after her, a triumphant grin on his face. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

In the office building above, Magnus silently watched Callum and Lexi's antics on the surveillance

camera. James couldn't help but ask, "Magnus, while this British guy is on our turf, should we teach

him a lesson?"

Magnus shook his head indifferently. "He's found someone else. He won't be coming after my wife

anymore. Why should I bother with him? Let them be. James, you need to keep searching for my wife

and check the ports for any sign of her. She's been hurt too many times because of me. I can't stand to

see her hurt anymore."

"Magnus, how can you say such things? It's all Belle's fault. If not for her, you and Natalia might have

had another child by now," James regretted his words the moment they left his mouth. Why did he have

to bring up such a sensitive topic?

As expected, the office fell into a heavy silence following James' words. Magnus stared out into the

distance, his longing for his wife stretching on endlessly. “Darling, where are you? Are you doing well?

Can you hear my thoughts calling out to you?”

No matter what, he had to find his wife.

Three days later, Magnus had made all the necessary arrangements and set off from the Fareham

harbor, following every possible route Natalia could have taken. But time and again, disappointment

was all he found. Magnus found himself alone in England, hoping against hope that Natalia might

return to the McKinney homestead. After all, it was her home.

However, Rowell claimed not to have seen Natalia. Magnus stood on the cobblestone streets of

England, looking up at the clear blue sky. "Darling, if you’re out there, could you give me a sign?" He

muttered to himself. "I need you, and Jonas misses you terribly!"
