Chapter 80


    For him, Natalia and the girl from his past both held a ce in his heart. However, that girl eventually


    left him, while Natalia did not. So Magnus felt that he should cherish Natalia even more.


    Back when his legs were broken, that girl wept with a heart–wrenching sorrow. He thought she would


    be his future. She had cared for him tenderly during that time, and he opened his heart to her. But three


    yearster, when Magnus returned from France, that girl had lost patience and was no longer waiting


    for him. When Magnus came back, she had already left, and at that moment, it felt like a piece of his


    heart had been torn away. He tasted the bitterness of abandonment again. From that point on, he


    despised women and focused all his energy on revenge.


    That woman was Isabe, Magnus first love.


    Now, when he thought of her, there was no turbulence in his heart. He had even forgotten what she


    looked like. But the girl in front of him, he absolutely wouldn’t allow her to leave him. He couldn’t bear


    another abandonment


    As he thought this, Magnus leaned in once more to kiss Natalia. All he wanted was to kiss her and


    im her. To have her squirming beneath him, to savor her tenderness and innocence


    He had never gone that far with Isabe, so he didn’t know how addictive sex could be after sleeping


    with Natalia.


    “You have me in your heart” Magnus was surprisingly certain about Natalias feelings.


    Before she could argue, he lowered his head to kiss her deeply. Natalia quickly pushed against his


    chest, her face flushed, “Stop it, if you’re not going to work, let’s return to the room I can give you a


    massage”


    She was already worn out by Magnus this afternoon. If they did it again, she wouldn’t be able to get out


    of bed. So Natalia felt a sense of panic, afraid that Magnus would continue disregarding her


    exhaustion.


    “Alright, let’s see how much you’ve learned Magnusughed and gently stroked her nose with an


    indulgent tone.


    Even though Natalia’s massages always hurt him a bit, he endured it to make her happy.


    So the two of them went upstairs to their room. Compared to her previous simple muscle massages,


    Natalia’s technique was more professional this time She even followed a specific sequence, massaging


    several pressure points on Magnus legs.


    The stimtion made Magnus want to move his legs. But to prevent Natalia from discovering he could


    stand, he had to grit his teeth and pretend not to feel anything


    Natalia grew suspicious as she watched Magnus sweating profusely on the special massage nket.


    “Are you sure you can’t feel anything?” she asked. Seeing Magnus strong, muscr legs, it seemed


    impossible that he couldn’t stand.


    Considering the cases she had seen before, they usually involved patients with some degree of muscle


    atrophy in their legs. But the muscles in Magnus legs looked well–developed, clearly showing signs of


    regr exercise. However he imed he couldn’t stand up, which was indeed quite puzzling.


    Magnus quickly denied it. “If I could stand, would I be sitting in this wheelchair, letting people call me


    useless?”


    Hearing this, Natalia felt guilty. I’m sorry, Magnus. You’re not useless to me. Even if you can’t stand,


    you’re not useless. You’re the best


    She couldn’t bring herself to say it, but in her heart, she felt grateful for him because he was the only


    one who didn’t me her for being a substitute and had protected her so well. He also didn’t make


    things difficult for the rkson family


    Natalia knew that the person who always called Magnus useless was his brother, Lucius. Thest time


    she visited the Andersen family mansion, she had seen Lucius. He was indeed mean to Magnus, and


    she understood why Magnus wanted topete with Lucius for Kendra’s affection. It was either out of


    hatred or family rivalry


    Just like Kendra was to her, Lucius was just as ruthless. It was surprising how family members could


    turn against one another over family disputes.


    Seeing Natalias teary eyes, Magnus sat up and gently pulled her into his arms. “Are you feeling sorry


    for me?” he asked.


    Thest time at the mansion, Natalia had stood up for him despite Lucius fierce demeanor. It was the


    first time that a woman had protected him. It didn’t feel as bad as he had imagined; in fact, it made him


    very happy.

    However, Natalia didn’t answer Magnus‘ question. She simply leaned into him, nodding her head in


    agreement. This made Magnus chuckle. “Silly girl, ? couldn’t care less about what a scumbag like


    Lucius says. Even if I were to lose my legs. Lucius wouldn’t stand a chance against me “


    With that, Magnus lowered his gaze to Natalia, who was nestled against his chest, her eyes still


    reddened Afraid that she might burst into tears, Magnus purposely changed the subject “Your final


    exams went pretty well You didn’t disappoint me So, tell me, what reward would you like?


    Because of their marriage, Natalia hadn’t been at school for quite some time Magnus had assumed


    that even if she returned to school for the exams, her grades would inevitably plummet. But to his


    surprise, after only a short time back at school, Natalia had managed to catch up on all her missed
