Chapter 118


    But who would''ve thought that Magnus, the newly dubbed national heartthrob, despite his wheelchair-


    bound condition, would find himself cuckolded?


    This news was only a couple of hours old but had already caused an uproar back home. Countless


    people rapidly shared andmented, the topic zing hotter by the minute.


    Lucius, who had no idea his photo with Kendra would make it to the inte, was taken aback. After


    everyone, he made it clear there was nothing going on between him and Kendra. He admitted they


    used to date, but for his brother, he stepped aside. From the moment Kendra became Magnus'' wife, he


    had not seen her.


    Yet, pictures of him and Kendra looking intimate were circting all over town.


    As everyone was puzzled over Lucius'' tant denial, a user named Kendra posted an audio recording


    on a verified website. In the recording, Lucius admitted toundering money within thepany and


    funneling a hefty portion of Andersen Corporation’s funds into his personal ount. He even boasted


    that Magnus'' position as CEO wouldn''tst, as he would be taking over soon.


    The fluctuating tone and unsettling words shocked all onlookers once more. In no time, various media


    outlets were reporting on the matter.


    Original content from N?velDrama.Org.


    Based on the previous reports and this audio recording, countless versions of the story were created.


    In the end, the most credible version revolved around Kendra, the shameless woman, who married


    Magnus, the nation''s beloved wheelchair-bound heartthrob. Unsatisfied, she rekindled her rtionship


    with Magnus'' brother, Lucius.


    However, Lucius yed her, and the deceitful couple began a love-hate rtionship. Therefore, Kendra


    must have made the recording as leverage against Lucius.


    All this chaos started at noon and extended into the night. The controversy did not subside as time


    went on, instead, it grew more intense.


    Morgan, who was aware of the whole ordeal, was furious. He clutched his heart. The whole of Melfort


    was buzzing with the Andersen family''s scandal!


    He ordered his bodyguards to bring Magnus and Lucius back to the Andersen Family Estate


    immediately, intending to get to the bottom of the matter.


    Meanwhile, Anthony and Lillian were also outraged. However, the moment Lucius and Magnus stepped


    through the gates of the Andersen Family Estate, Lillian kept her eyes on Lucius, wanting to scold him


    but was restrained by Morgan''s booming voice.


    "Lucius, exin yourself!" He demanded, shaking with anger, newspapers in hand.


    He threw the papers at Lucius'' face!


    Regardless of Kendra and Lucius'' past, Kendra was now Magnus'' wife, and that was a fact. Even if


    Magnus didn''t want her, it was his business. Lucius should have cut ties with Kendrapletely. Now,


    their scandal was humiliating the entire Andersen family!


    He feared that he would be pointed at and ridiculed, used of failing to teach his family morals,


    leading to this disgraceful affair.


    Furthermore, Lucius had been meddling with thepany and even attempted to frame Magnus. He


    had already received numerousints from shareholders demanding action.


    He was furious at Lucius. If he weren''t family, he would''ve wished him dead a thousand times over.


    Despite forgiving Lucius over and over again, this was the result he got.


    After Morgan''s rant, a guilty Lucius red at Magnus sitting in his wheelchair before saying,


    "Grandfather, someone must be framing me. You know I would never do such a thing! Someone must


    be framing me. Grandfather, leave this to me. I will get to the bottom of it!"


    He was certain that Magnus was behind this. First, he sent him to the Middle East, and now this


    scandal. Regret filled him for not eliminating the problem when he had the chance.


    His eyes filled with murderous intent when he thought of Kendra and how she had yed him.


    After Lucius'' exnation, Lillian quickly stepped in. "We shouldn''t use Lucius without evidence.


    Who knows, someone might be setting him up? As for Kendra, I''ve never liked her. Maybe someone


    manipted Kendra to seduce Lucius and took those photos."


    Turning to Magnus, she continued, "You must have known about this, right Magnus? Kendra is your


    wife, after all. Could you have…"


    In any case, Lillian just couldn''t believe that her sharp-witted son, Lucius, could be so careless as to be


    captured in such apromising photo by the media. And even if such a picture was taken, so what?


    With the influence of the Andersen family, who would dare to distribute such a photo without their


    consent? Therefore, Lillian was certain that Magnus was behind this scandal.


    What puzzled them was, now that Magnus already had the position of CEO, why would he still plot


    against his own brother?


    After his misfortune nine years ago, Morgan had already handed him a substantial share of the


    Andersen Corporation.


    He should have spent his life peacefully on Sapphire Ind, and enjoy the good life. Why would he


    want topete with Lucius for the position of CEO of Andersen Corporation? Now that things had


    gone his way, he still couldn’t let Lucius go. That was why they''d never been fond of this son since he


    was a child.


    "Enough!" However, after hearing Lillian''s words, Morgan, whose face was growing increasingly grim,


    suddenly shouted, interrupting her.


    In a particrly furious roar, he barked, "You''ve been protecting him since he was a child, and now that


    he''s done something like this, you''re still defending him! Do you think this voice could be fake? Can''t


    you recognize that it''s this brute''s voice?"
