The staff of the vi were all top–notch professionals, trained to a T When they received orders from
their employer, they ensured their tasks were aplished to perfection Thus, the moment Magnus
stepped out, Natalia found herself in a state of absolute freedom.
Finally free from Magnus relentless attention, Natalia heaved a sigh of relief. She grabbed a moment to
dial Callum’s number

The phone rang for a long time, but no one picked up. Natalia was surprised, and thought perhaps
Callum was avoiding her calls because she was in France, so she decided to dial thendline in the
castle.
“Beep Beep Beep
After a long time, someone finally answered.
“Good afternoon Who’s speaking, please?”
The familiar ent from the other side of the line made Natalia realize it was Rita on the other end.
Rita, could you please get Callum on the line? It’s Natalia.”
Recognizing Natalia’s voice, Rita’s tone was filled with an unmistakable excitement. Thank heavens,
Ms. rkson! We’ve finally heard from you! Mr. Callum needs you!
Natalia felt a sudden chill, and she quickly asked, “Rita, what are you talking about? Saved from what?
What happened to Callum?”
“Ms rkson, ever since you left, Mr Callum fell terribly ill. He’s still bedridden, and ording to our
private physician, he’s barely hanging on. He’s been calling for you even in his unconscious state Rita
sobbed over the phone
Rita’s crying stabbed Natalia’s heart. She couldn’t fathom how Callum could have fallen critically ill in
just three days since she left. The thought was inconceivable. She had promised him that she would
return! What on earth had she done? Callum was the only family she had in this world.
“Rita, calm down. Tell me everything. What happened to Callum?” Natalia was extremely anxious,
wishing she could teleport to Ennd night away.
“Ms rkson, I have to attend to Mr. Callum. I can’t talk much. Please,e back as soon as you can.
If you dy you might not see him again” Rita hurriedly hung up after saying this
Listening to the busy tone from the receiver, Natalia’s heart sank to the bottom of her chest. She had
no idea what had happened to Callum, but she knew Rita wouldn’t joke about such matters.
Rita had said, if Natalia dyed, she might never see Callum again.
Natalia was in a state of panic. She needed to fly back to Ennd immediately. Prompted by her
thoughts, Natalia quickly grabbed her passport from upstairs. ready to leave Magnus French vi.
As she descended the stairs, she noticed someone in the living room. It was Lexi
“Lexi, what brings you here?” Natalia asked in a hurry
Lexi shrugged. Talk about being heartless! I’m leaving France and came here to say goodbye If you’re
too busy. I’ll just go.”
“Alright, ainght, Lexi, my bad You’re leaving France? Why?” Natalia asked
Lexi pointed to her small bag Tonginally came to hang out with Sabrina. I’ve seen everything I needed
to, and even ran into you. Don’t see a reason to stick around. I’m thinking of packing up and heading
back to Melfort.”
Then, noticing the passport in Natalia’s hand, Lexi asked, “Natalia, are you nning to travel?”
Natalia nodded, without any attempt to hide her intentions. Yes, and I must leave right now. Callum is
sick.”
“Callum” The Duke from Ennd?” Lexi’s eyes lit up. “Natalia, can Ie with you? I want to
experience living in a medieval English castle and rejuvenate my soul” Natalia knew Lexis artistic
tendencies were acting up again, but she didn’t bother arguing. Instead, she agreed right away. “Sure,
you were leaving France anyway You might as welle with me to Ennd for a while
“Mommy. I want to go too!”
Little Jonas ran down from upstairs, his eyes filled with determination, “Mommy, I heard your
conversation with Auntie Lexi Wherever you go, I want to go too. I don’t want to be apart from you”
Seeing Jonas on the verge of tears, Natalia’s heart ached. She had just reunited with her son. How
could she possibly leave him behind?
“But, should we tell your daddy? In case he doesn’t agree with youing with me?” Natalia pondered,
thinking she should seek Magnus permission before taking
Jonas with her
Jonas quickly shook his head “Mommy, Daddy always said that a man should be adventurous. And I
am leaving with you. If you ask him and he doesn’t allow us to leave, what then?”
Natalia was speechless Indeed, given Magnus stubborn nature, if he knew she was going back to
Ennd to see Callum, he would certainly not let her go
Under such circumstances, acting first and exiningter would be better So, Natalia impulsively
decided to take Jonas with her to Ennd
Of course, the staff asked about their sudden departure. However Natalia deflected their quenes by
saying they were going out for some fresh air
Soon, a ne was carrying the trio to Ennd Throughout the journey, Jonas kept asking questions
excitedly. He had always been well cared for by Magnus and had never experienced the novelty of
traveling alone with Natalia
Uponnding. Natalia hailed a cab and headed straight to her apartment in Ennd in no time, the taxi
pulled up in front of the apartment building. Natalia, cradling Jonas, paid the fare and stepped out of the
vehicle
Lexi couldn’t help but marvel at the quintessential British architecture in front of them. “What a
gorgeous ce. I love it”
“I love it too, Jonas chimed in, not wanting to be left out.
Natalia fished out her keys and unlocked the door, gesturing for Lexi and Jonas to enter “This is my
mom’s ce. I’m staying here for now?
“Wow, this ce is really nice. I love theyout too. Your mom must have been an artsy type, just my
kind of woman, Lexi said, looking around the ce with
batisfied gaze before sinking into the plushfort of the sofa.
