Chapter 70


    If Natalia were to leave Magnus, for Hector or any other man, Magnus would never allow it!


    Magnus was always noted for his strength. Despite his seemingly crippled legs, he always managed to


    exhaust Natalia. So when Magnus finally growled in satisfaction, marking the end of their passionate


    sex, Natalia didn''t have the energy left even to speak. She pretended to sleep, turning her head to the


    side, yet her mind was alert.


    “Darlin''?” Magnus, having released his pent-up energy, was still annoyed with Natalia. Seeing her


    asleep with wet eyshes and tear stains on her face, even in his anger, he couldn''t find it in him to be


    harsh.


    After getting off her, he called out to her, hoping to clear up the issues if she was still awake. He made


    it clear that he wouldn''t let her leave. He seemed to really like Natalia, a feeling he''d never had for any


    other woman before. So even if Natalia hated him, her leaving was not an option!


    Natalia heard Magnus calling her, but she chose to ignore him. She coiled up under the nket,


    keeping her mouth shut.


    “Ah…” Magnus, knowing Natalia was awake but choosing to ignore him, exhaled a sigh. He then


    moved to his wheelchair, lifted the nket, and picked up Natalia, who was still unclothed, and took her


    to the bathroom. He filled the bathtub with water, first putting Natalia in, then supported his own body


    into the tub.


    After they were both clean, Magnus held Natalia and returned to the master bed, where he fell into a


    deep sleep with her in his arms.


    Natalia, who had been exhausted, had long fallen asleep.


    The next day, Natalia was awoken by a strong ray of sunlight piercing through the opened curtains and


    “Whoosh!” As Natalia was shielding her eyes from the light, the curtains were abruptly drawn. Soon,


    the sound of a wheelchair moving was heard, and it stopped by her bed.


    Then came the gentle voice of Magnus. “Wake up. You''ve slept a long time.”


    Magnus hadn''t nned to wake Natalia so early, knowing how tired she was. But then he remembered


    how she challenged himst night, saying she wouldn''t marry him.

    Though his anger had subsided after the release, there was still a rock weighing on his chest, he


    needed to clear things up with her.


    “Ah.” Surprised by this method of waking her, Natalia wondered who would disturb her sleep. When


    she heard Magnus'' voice and saw the handsome man in a white shirt and trousers sitting on a


    wheelchair by her bed, she was fully awake.


    This, of course, included Magnus'' harsh words fromst night, so, Natalia''s mood, which was not so


    bad in the early morning, immediately turned gloomy.


    She didn''t feel she did anything wrong the night before. Magnus had the right to like other women, and


    she had the right to choose whether to stay with him. Was she wrong in thinking this? With these


    thoughts, Natalia didn''t say much, she simply got dressed, freshened up, and went downstairs.


    Magnus, seeing Natalia''s indifference towards him in the morning, went downstairs while she was


    getting dressed.


    By the time Natalia was ready, Magnus was already sitting at the dining table, leisurely eating his


    breakfast. Natalia took a seat at the table, wondering, “What time is it now? Magnus hasn''t gone to the


    office yet? Is he staying to settle scores overst night''s incident?”


    As Natalia was pondering and not speaking, Magnus, who was eating elegantly like a prince, finally


    spoke. His tone was light as ifst night''s events were a figment of her imagination. “I will only work half


    a day at the office today and will be back by noon. Be ready to give me a massage in the afternoon.”


    Magnus originally nned to handle the Lucius situation quickly, and then he would have enough time


    to do whatever Natalia wanted. But given the current situation, Magnus felt his n wouldn''t work.


    Across from him, the enemy was not just Lucius. There was also Hector, who was constantly trying to


    steal Natalia away from him.


    Natalia was surprised to hear Magnus would only be at the office for half a day. She couldn''t help but


    look at him.


    “What? Is there a problem? Didn''t you say you prepared a lot of ns yesterday? So, were you lying to


    me yesterday?” Seeing Natalia''s gaze, Magnus also looked up at her. Although he knew Natalia had


    been studying massage techniques at Maplewood Manor, he expressed doubt.


    He thought to himself, “This girl is getting more and more daring. She was clearly in the wrong


    yesterday, and yet she dares to ignore me this morning. If I didn''t care for her so much, wouldn''t I be at


    a loss right now?”


    It was a surprise to hear such words from Magnus this early morning. Natalia, who had been feeling


    Magnus'' kindnesstely, couldn''t help but furrow her brows. She set down her knife and fork.


    Swallowing her feelings of hurt, she said, "How dare I deceive you? Well then, I''ll await your return at


    Maplewood Manor."


    Natalia''s tone was harsh, but Magnus had no intention of arguing with her. He disregarded the


    resentment and sorrow in her eyes and simply finished his meal on his te. Then, with Linden


    pushing his wheelchair, Magnus left for the office.


    Once Magnus had left, Natalia, who had lost all appetite, didn''t eat anymore. She turned around and


    went upstairs, locking herself in her room to read.
