Natalia nodded “Yes, the nft between Magnus and I is too deep to mend. Besides, Cal has done so much for me over the years…”

“But gratitude isn’t love!” Lexi exclaimed abruptly. “Natalia, you mustn’t mistake gratitude for love. True love is about sticking together through thick and thin, no matter what How romantic that is!”

Natalia hesitated for a moment. “But I don’t think what’s between Magnus and I is love. All of this stems from his obsession. Things wouldn’t have turned out this way if he had let go earlier”

After hearing Natalia’s words, neither Lexi nor Sabrina had anything to say After all, it was hard for outsiders to understand the feelings between them. The emotional entanglement between Natalia, Magnus, and Cal was something Lexi and Sabrina, who were not involved, couldn’t comment on

“Natalia, no matter who you choose, we sincerely wish you happiness, Sabrina stated earnestly

Lexi nodded in agreement “Right, Natalia, whoever ends up marrying you will be the luckiest man in the world. And I’m so curious about Cal, who is so devoted to you. If I get a chance. I would love to meet him and see if he’s a thousand times better than Magnus”

“No problem When I go back to England. I’ll take you with me I’ll show you the medieval castles Aren’t you fascinated by those?” Natalia agreed cheerfully

At the mention of medieval castles, Lexi’s eyes lit up. “Natalia, you mean to tell me you’ve been living in a castle for the past five years? That’s amazing! Give me a castle and lock me up in it, I won’t complain!”

Natalia, aware of Lexi’s fervor for ancient British castles, nodded knowingly. “Sure. Next time, I’ll take you. And I’ll ask Cal if their castle has a dungeon or something so you can experience what it’s like being locked up.”

“Stop it Lexi gave Natalia a playful glare, pretending to be offended. “I’m a princess, not a prisoner I want to sleep in the princess bedroom”
