Chapter 244


    Even so, Natalia couldn’t shake off a twinge of quilt that seemed tount her, as if she’d betrayed


    something or someone


    Good heavens, what on earth was she thinking?


    Inwardly, she chastised herself, steadying her emotions, and soon fell into a deep sleep. After a day’s


    ordeal, she was utterly exhaunted


    On the other hand, Callum was delighted to have Natalia by his side. He atched her affectionately, his


    gam lingering on Natalia lying next to him Contentedly, he drifted off to sleep


    When Natalia ve up the next day her first instinct was to check Callum’s forehead


    Thank God his fever had finally subsided


    She tiptoed out of the room, giving instructions to Rita to prepare some food for Callum


    Knowing Callum had managed to pull through. Rita expressed her gratitude to Natalia foring just in


    time to save this disheartened man


    Natalia, however felt she had no need for Ritas gratitude if anything it seemed she owed more to


    Callum


    chatting to Rita Natalia headed back into Callum’s room. She stared at him carefully, the once normally


    hearty and robust man was now a frail and sickly man & shad of emotions welled up within her Despite


    knowing she could never go back to her past with Magnus, ever since she saw little Jonas, her heart


    seemed to lean more toward, Magnus


    She could deceive everyone else, but not herself. It wasn’t a rekindling of old feelings, but her desire to


    give Jonas aplete family. But this would inevita betraying his years of dedication, and waiting


    Natalia heaved a long sigh, unsure how to convey her internal turmoil to Callum His health was


    currently unstable, and voicing her concerns now would undoubtedly upset him Perhaps it would be


    better to wait until his health improved before exining everything


    in truth. Natalia didn’t want either Magnus or Callum All she wanted was her precious Jonas, whom she


    had lost and found again


    Natalia quietly walked to the bedside gently pulled out a chair, and sat down. Despite her best efforts to


    be as quiet as possible she ended up waking Callum


    As soon as Callum opened his eyes, he saw Natalia sitting next to him. His eyes met hers, and he said


    with gratitude, “Buttercup, waking up to see you is the greatest joy”


    Natalia greeted him with a bright smile. “Cal, you’re awake? Do you feel any better than yesterday?”


    “Ahem” Callum coughed lightly, his voice significantly better than the previous day “Yes, I am much


    better. Your return is the best medicine for my reco


    promise me that once you’re better you’ll stop recklessly damaging your health, okay?” Natalia asked


    earnestly


    Callum responded with a bright smile, “Risking my health? Oh no, I will definitely take better care of


    myself. Because only then can I take better care of you, and have a healthy baby after our marriage”


    The mention of a baby reminded Natalia of Lex and Jonas, whom she had left at the apartment


    Goodness, she had been so focused on taking care of Callum the previous day that she had


    With this thought, Natalia promptly got up, intending to take her leave “Cal, I have some things to


    attend to I’lle backter to check on you, okay


    “Where are you going, Buttercup? Callum asked, puzzled. He knew Natalia better than anyone else.


    She had no friends in the UK. Why was she in such a hurry to leave?


    Natalia didn’t hide anything and said directly “Cal I rushed here to see you as soon as I returned


    yesterday, but I left my son, Jonas, and my friend Lexi, at the been a day and a night. I need to go


    check on them”


    The mention of Natalia’s son immediately caught Callum’s attention. He asked in surprise. “Natalia, you


    mentioned your son. When did you have a son? Why did She must have been joking Over the years,


    no one knew Natalia better than him Where did this sone from?


    Mait a minute, a son named Jonas Could it be the child who was said to have died shortly after birth

    Callums questioning gaze. Natalia simply said. “Cal Jonas is the kid we thought died years ago Morgan
