The Imposter Bride by Sallie Woods

Chapter 307

As she spoke, Isabella deftly unclasped a thin silver chain from around her neck. Hanging from it was a tiny glass vial about the size of a thumb, filled with a deep green liquid This must have been the antidote

Upon seeing the coveted antidote, Natalia was overjoyed. She impulsively moved towards Isabella, reaching out to grab the vial, but Isabella skillfully sidestepped her.

Isabella held the antidote high, a cold smirk plastered on her face. “Natalia, you want this antidote, don’t you? No problem Leave Magnus, and I’ll make sure he takes it”

Natalia was taken aback “But even if I leave, Magnus will never accept you again.”

“Thats not your concern anymore I live to torment you two I want to break you apart, watch you drift apart, never to meet again” Isabella’s voice dripped with malice, her eyes gleaming with anticipation “Only when you’re gone will Magnus see how good I am! So, you must leave him. Go somewhere he’ll never find you!”

“Isabella, you’re seriously deluded if you think you can break us up like that. True love can’t be broken by time or distance You’re so naive Natalia was baffled by Isabella’s twisted logic it was madness

“Narve? Ha Isabella scoffed dismissively “You think it’s as simple as you leaving? Natalia, you have to swear, swear to never return to Magnus‘ side, then I’ll give you half of the antidote. The other half I’ll give to him after you’ve left”

“No. I can’t do that Natalia flatly refused How could she leave Magnus? if she just left like that, how heartbroken would he be?

“Can’t do it? Natalia, isn’t Magnus already starting to deteriorate? Let me tell you, if you let this poison spread, it will get worse until it seeps into his marrow. By then, even if you have the antidote, it’ll be useless Isabella pocketed the antidote, crossed her arms, and stared at Natalia with certainty, convinced she would agree

Natalia paled instantly She knew Magnus condition was critical, and the antidote was needed urgently. There was no more time to waste.
