The Imposter Bride by Sallie Woods

Chapter 61

When they arrived at Melfort, it was already dawn. The man in the wolf mask strode off the boat, carrying the feverish girl in his arms. He didn’t exchange a word with Hector

Hector was left feeling quite superfluous with a lump in his throat.

Linden, on the shore, swiftly came forward to take the unconscious Natalia from him. He looked up at the masked man.

“She has a fever, get her to the hospital! She needs clothes and also inform May!”

Linden nodded promptly. “Yes! Thank you for saving Ms. Natalial

“It’s my duty as a bodyguard! The masked man turned on his heel and strode away.

Hector watched him for a moment before joining Linden in taking Natalia to the hospital

When Natalia woke up again, it was already the next day Opening her eyes to the sterile white surroundings, she knew she was in a hospital. She had been saved from drowning by a man in a mask, but who was he?

Just then, the hospital room door opened, and May walked in carrying a thermos. Upon seeing Natalia awake, she smiled and approached. “Ms. Natalia, you’re awake I knew you would be. I made some soup for you. Eat it while it’s hot. You had a fever after the bodyguard brought you back last night. We were so scared! If Mr. Magnus knew you were kidnapped, he’d be frantic. Thank God you’re okay”

Natalia slowly sat up, feeling weak. She took the soup from May and slowly ate a few spoonfuls.

“May, was it my classmate Hector who brought me to the hospital?”

“No, it was Mr. Magnus‘ bodyguard who saved you. Linden brought you here. Hector was also there. May said with a smile
