The Imposter Bride by Sallie Woods

CERTAT

Chapter 153

“If you two were as solid as a rock, why did you part ways for nine years? You know what happened within those years. All I can say is that your bond was of youthful naivety, and your decisions were immature and irrational. And now, when Magnus stands on his feet, you finally show up. Why didn’t you come back to be with him all these years? If Magnus can’t forget you, he could simply break up with me and marry you It’s not about handing him back to you Magnus doesn’t belong to anyone, and he’s not a borrowed item that needs returning. As for your claim that Magnus doesn’t want to hurt me and sent you instead, it feels like a sympathy seeking drama you staged

1 admit, I’m young and pretty. But does that mean I should sacrifice my marriage to make you happy? And about your offer of money? As of now, I’m Magnus wife, and half of the Andersen Corporation’s money is mine Where’s yours coming from? isabella, I’m not a charity, nor am I an angel Your words today mean nothing to me.”

Natalia stood up, slinging her backpack over her shoulder. “Isabella, I have an exam tomorrow. I need to go home and study Excuse me” With that, she left the coffee shop briskly

Isabella watched Natalia’s retreating figure, her eyes glinting with a fierce light. This girl was not easy to deal with She was much tougher than that foolish woman, Kendra Although these two were both the Clarksons, there was a world of difference

She clenched her fists tightly, her nails digging into her flesh. With a sweep of her arm, she knocked her coffee off the table. When she noticed the cafe manager approach, she pulled out some cash from her purse, tossed it on the table, and left

Natalia wandered aimlessly down the street, isabella’s words stinging her heart However, she no longer felt the pain. She had grown numb. She simply didn’t want to appear weak and vulnerable in front of this woman Even if she had no future with Magnus, she would not allow this woman to bully her

Under the neon lights, she didn’t know where to go. Looking up, she spotted the public library, its lights on Perfect. She could study in the library and return home a bit later to avoid Magnus. She walked in, finding a quiet corner, and took out her study materials to begin revising.

Ten minutes later, she felt a shadow over her Turning around, she found a tall man standing behind her, looking at her study materials
