Chapter 230


    As Natalia walked, she was wracked with anxiety,pletely bewildered as to where Magnus had


    acquired a Gatling gun. After all, this was Ennd, not the Wild West. If they were to start a full-fledged


    shoot-out, wouldn''t they be thrown straight into a British prison?


    Natalia''s concerns were not unfounded. The moment she had left Orange Horizon, Magnus had hastily


    called James, "Bring the organization''s weapons immediately. Someone wants to propose to my wife!


    I''ll make sure he has nowhere to run!"


    If Callum wanted to marry Magnus’ wife, he wouldn’t get the chance to because Magnus threatened to


    level his castle!


    James was utterly bbergasted, unable toprehend why Magnus would want him to bring


    weapons to help him reim his wife. What could have happened to provoke Magnus into deploying


    the newly-acquired Gatling gun?


    However, James observed Magnus'' furious expression and wisely decided it was best to keep his


    thoughts to himself and agreed readily. Who cared, it was a good chance to test this bad boy''s power!


    Not only would James bring six Gatling guns, but he''d also bring a dozen nes if Magnus asked,


    without any hesitation.


    The next morning, James and his men hauled the six Gatling guns to Ennd.


    Was all this firepower just to reim Natalia? Wouldn''t it be easier to sneak into the castle and whisk


    Natalia away? Why would they make such a show of force with their prized weapons? Wasn’t this a bit


    of an overkill?


    But, facing Magnus'' dark re, James kept his opinions to himself. He simply followed Magnus'' orders,


    directing his men to surround Callum''s castle.


    Then, James stood behind Magnus, waiting for the castle''s owner toe out and face them. The


    stage was set for a showdown, wasn''t it?


    In no time, things started to go as James predicted. Callum, with a scowl even fouler than the one on


    Magnus’ face, stepped out of the castle.


    Looking at the line of Gatling guns outside his property, Callum finally believed what Rita had told him.


    He''d thought Rita had been exaggerating, but it seemed she had actually downyed the situation.


    "Magnus, what the hell are you trying to do?" Callum stood there, hands sped behind his back, with


    an air of disdain, finding Magnus'' actions as immature as a petnt child''s.


    Magnus took a couple of steps forward, meeting Callum''s gaze. "I''m here to take my wife home,


    Callum. If you''re smart, you''ll return her to me, or else, don''t me me for being rude."


    "Ha," Callum couldn''t help but scoff. "Magnus, have you lost your mind? Natalia is no longer your wife.


    Today is the day she and I get engaged. If you''re here to join the feast, I wee you with open arms.


    But if you''re here to cause trouble, well, I won’t go soft on you."


    With that, Callum signaled, and a line of well-dressed bodyguards emerged from behind him. These


    bodyguards moved with cold, military precision, an aura of lethal intent surrounding them. Each one of


    them held a sniper rifle.


    Under Callum''smand, they were his most trusted aides, ready to execute any order without


    hesitation.


    Although Magnus brought six Gatling guns, the advantage between long-range and closebat was


    unclear. If a fight were to break out, it was uncertain who woulde out on top.


    But one thing was clear – It would result in a bloodbath.


    Magnus looked at the hardened mercenaries andughed heartily.


    "Callum, you''re really overestimating yourself. If you dare to make a move, I''ll level your castle and


    chapel. But I''m only here to bring my wife home. If I can''t aplish this, then, this day next year will


    be the anniversary of your death!" Magnus'' eyes were filled with a deadly chill, like a demon straight


    out of hell.


    His love for Natalia was bone-deep, and he wouldn''t stand by and watch her marry another man. Not


    unless he was dead. No, even if he died, he would want their love to live on. She could never marry


    anyone else.


    Magnus knew he was horribly selfish, but love was about possession. He could never be


    magnanimous.


    The thought of Natalia bing another man''s wife made Magnus want to burn the world down! He


    loved Natalia with all his heart and soul. He wouldn''t tolerate her thinking about another man, nor could


    he bear her constant avoidance and escape.


    All he wanted was to keep her by his side, forever belonging to him alone.


    Facing Magnus'' tant provocation, Callum didn''t flinch. So what if Magnus had brought six Gatling


    guns? Even if Magnus dared to unleash such destructive weapons in Ennd, the worst that could


    happen would be half his castle getting blown up. Callum would never let Natalia return to such a vile


    man.


    Natalia was so pure and innocent, and how could she bear such a wicked man like Magnus?

    Therefore, Callum boldly confronted Magnus. "Humph, do you think I''m scared of you? If you want to


    fight, let''s not beat around the bush. But let me tell you, even if you win by some fluke, Natalia will


    never go back with you. She told me that the person she detests the most in this world is you, a selfish


    freak!"


    Callum deliberately provoked Magnus, ignoring his threats. The conversation reached a deadlock, with


    neither man willing to back down. A showdown seemed inevitable.


    "Since you won''t let her go, I''ll make you pay!"


    Magnus was enraged by Callum, especially by hisstment. He felt like he was on the verge of


    losing his mind. What kind of spell had this damned Callum cast on his wife? He needed to get her


    back as soon as possible!


    With that thought, Magnus looked at Callum''s face, and the more he looked, the angrier he got. He


    waved his hand. "Prepare to fire!"


    James immediately got ready. His cold eyes were fixed on Callum. This guy was asking for it!


    Seeing Magnus get serious, Callum felt a twinge of fear. He was terrified of jeopardizing the innocent


    lives in the castle, fearful that such an act would drown him in guilt!


    "Come on, Magnus, let''s have it out just between you and me! You''re not hurting anyone else!" Before


    Magnus could even respond, Callum lunged at him, throwing a punch that nearly knocked Magnus off


    his feet.


    Magnus adjusted his stance, biting his lip in annoyance. Callum had the nerve tounch a surprise


    attack. How low!


    Infuriated, Magnus retaliated with a punch of his own. Callum blocked Magnus'' counterstrike, and the


    two of them began grappling with each other. They tussled together, leaving James, who was ready to


    fire,pletely dumbfounded.


    What on earth was Magnus doing? Weren''t they supposed to be firing their guns? Instead, the two men


    were having a childish brawl.
