Chapter 223
Natalia stood in the elevator Her feelings were a whirlwind of emotions. She stared at her reflection in the shiny elevator mirror, feeling like a fool that was being played around with
Callum would have never deceived her, and yet Magnus was going through all this trouble, just to play her for a fool. What was the point?
“Ding”
The elevator came to a stop at the penthouse Natalia hesitated, biting her lip, before stepping out
The top floor was decorated in a simple yet elegant style that was refreshing to the eye. Yet, beneath its modesty, there was a hint of luxury
Her stilettos clicked pleasantly against the polished floor as Natalia made her way towards the CEO’s office. Taking a deep breath, Natalia mustered up her courage and pushed open the door to the office
The room was tidy and bright On the large desk, there was a photo of her. The room was empty. Seeing her photo on the desk, Natalia walked over and picked it
up
In the picture, she was looking down, smiling slightly. Her right hand rested on her slightly protruding belly. She looked so tender and sweet. From this angle, it was clear that the photo had been taken without her knowledge The person behind this must have been Magnus. She wondered when he had taken this picture
Natalia gazed at her image in the photo, and a lump was forming in her throat. She gently touched her flat stomach, as if recalling the time when she was pregnant. Back then, although she was often in low
spints, the baby inside her was her biggest support. Every day, she felt the baby’s heartbeat and movements, and that was the happiest time of her life
But now the baby was gone, and all that remained was painful history.
Natalia’s smile faded as she put the photo back on the desk. She unconsciously touched her flat belly, a bitter taste spreading in her mouth
Who would ever know that she once camed a precious life inside her?
A tear escaped from her eye and fell onto the shiny floor
Realizing she was crying, Natalia quickly wiped away her tears and started searching the room. She was here to expose Magnus lies, and she had to find him
However, after a thorough search, she found nothing but cold decorations and books. There was no sign of Magnus.
She pushed open the door to the lounge and was stunned to see the walls covered in photos of her There were pictures of her frowning, smiling lost in thought,
and even sleeping
The photos were plastered all over the lounge walls, not only from the time when she was pregnant five years ago but also from recent moments
There was one of her licking cream off the comer of her lips. It was taken on a day when the company had served cheesecake. She remembered that cheesecake, it
was nich and smooth
There were also photos of her watering plants, working at her computer, and explaining proposals to her staff
It seemed that Magnus had captured all sorts of moments in her life.
Feeling a sense of helplessness, Natalia was furious. This obsessive man had been secretly capturing her moments without her knowledge, which was infuriating.
This was her life, and Magnus had intruded without her permission. He was even trying to manipulate her personal lifel
Without hesitation, Natalia started to peel off the photos from the walls. She was angry and quickly removed many photos, holding a thick pile in her hands.
“Hey! What are you doing? Who let you in Magnus had just entered his office when he saw someone in the lounge tearing down his precious collection. He was
livid
He quickly approached Natalia and grabbed her by the shoulders. “Get out of here wait, Natalia?! Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
Natalia was wearing a green suit, and from behind, she looked like a high school girl. It took Magnus a moment to recognize her.
Startled by Magnus sudden grip, Natalia turned to face him “You, you
All the accusations and questions she had prepared in her mind vanished when she saw Magnus incredibly handsome face. She stuttered, unable to form a coherent sentence
“Natalia, did you come specifically to see me?” Magnus was thrilled to see Natalia, and he grabbed her hands. “My wife, I knew it. I knew you loved me. I knew you couldn’t let me go”
Natalia pulled her hands out of Magnus grip as if they had been burned. She remembered why she was there and questioned Magnus angrily, “Did you Did you buy this company? For fifty billion?”
Magnus paused bet
quickly realizing that Callum must have told Natalia the truth
So what? Everything he did was to win his wife back, and there was nothing to be ashamed about So, Magnus nodded without hesitation. Yes, I did buy this company Natalia, I know you love designing. So why should you work for others when you can work for your own company? I think you would be happier here!”
He bought the company, but the legal owner was Natalia He took out the property deed and the company’s contract from his drawer “This is your company?
Natalia stared at him, unable to say a word She pointed at Magnus and said fiercely. “Are you crazy? You spent fifty billion on this company! Do you have that much money to burn? Go back to Melfort now!”
“I won’t leave Wherever you are. I’ll be there, Natalia. You are my woman!” Magnus was thrilled to see Natalia’s cheeks tum pink. He wanted to pull her into his arms. He had wanted her since last night, but she had run away. His desire had been left unfulfilled for the entire night
For years, he had lost interest in other women. Chase once introduced him to a woman who looked a lot like Nataba,but even when she stood naked in front of him, he felt nothing
Chase and James had teased him about him being impotent. He had also begun to suspect that maybe he was
But last night, he had impulsively kissed Natalia, and to his shock, he had felt something. It kept him awake till the wee hours of the moming. Her petite figure and the sweet taste of her lips were haunting his thoughts.
He desired her – with a fervor that drove him to the brink of madness! Her angry look actually stirred his blood and set his heart aflame.
Tm not! We’re nothing to each other now!” Natalia flung the tom photograph at Magnus. “And you! Are you like some peeping Tom? You were secretly photographing me?!”
