Chapter 235

Natalia shook her head, indifferent to the fate of Kendra and Isabella. Magnus had thought he was avenging her, but even now, he still failed to realize that he was the one who had hurt her the most

“Let’s not argue in front of the child,” Natalia gently suggested. “Magnus, could you leave us alone for a bit? I’d like some alone time with Jonas”

Natalia was overjoyed. She picked up a stuffed animal from the bed and played with Jonas “Do you like this, sweetheart? Mommy got it for you”

Thank you, Mommy,” Jonas responded softly, leaving a sweet kiss on Natalia’s cheek that instantly melted her heart
