The Imposter Bride by Sallie Woods

Chapter 148

Once Morgan was settled and stable, Magnus prepared to leave the hospital.

Emerging from the hospital, Magnus was in a foul mood. When he spotted Lillian and Anthony heading towards the hospital, he promptly hopped into his car. He wasn’t in the mood for any conversation.

Magnus drove at the highest speed, releasing the pent–up frustration within.

“We can’t be sure. Maybe Natalia came to see me. Maybe she thinks you’ve been treating her unfairly, and she came to me to let off some steam?” Carter quipped

Magnus fell silent, and Carter could almost picture his normally stoic face distorted in frustration.

“Well, you better take good care of her. If anything happens to her in France, you will have to answer to me.” Magnus warned before hanging up
