The Imposter Bride by Sallie Woods

Chapter 266

Without seeing Lexi, Natalia’s spirits were notably dampened.

A car suddenly pulled her over Natalia lifted her head in irritation, expecting Addison to be causing trouble again. However, she was mistaken this time. The man who had stopped her was Magnus, who had received a text from Jonas and was in a hurry to get back.

He had been in a meeting when he received Jonas‘ message. Without a second thought, he left his colleagues behind in the office and sped off to find Natalia, fearing that something terrible had happened to her.

“Nat, are you okay? Is there any trouble? What happened to the person who was following you?” Magnus asked anxiously

Seeing Magnus worned expression, Natalia couldn’t help but smile. This man was usually so ruthless and cold–hearted. How was it that he could get so flustered?

It was kind of heartwarming though

“Oh, we just ran into Addison, but she’s gone now. Everything’s okay” Natalia reassured Magnus.

However, Magnus didn’t seem convinced “Addison? Why would she be following you? Honey, did she hurt you in any way? Let me check.”

With that, Magnus took hold of Natalia and began to thoroughly examine her from head to toe Honey, are there any injuries that I can’t see? Please tell me, I’m worried sick

Natalia burst into laughter, but before she could say anything, Jonas gave Magnus a glaring eye roll ‘Daddy it seems there’s also a certain someone’s son here who hasn’t received any consolation
