Chapter 300


    Dr. Frankie and a few doctors rushed over to assist Magnus, who had fallen unconscious with his eyes


    tightly shut.


    Natalia clumsily rose from the floor, her mind consumed by Magnus'' condition. Her voice trembled as


    she questioned Dr. Frankie, "Has Magnus... has he fainted again?"


    After settling Magnus on the hospital bed and conducting a brief examination, Dr. Frankie shook his


    head and said, "Ma’am, Mr. Andersen just had a fit because of withdrawal symptoms. Now that he has


    passed out, he doesn''t have the strength to fight it anymore. You know, after this long struggle, his


    body is already on the verge of copse."


    Touching Magnus'' disheveled hair, Natalia''s heart ached terribly. The once vibrant Magnus now looked


    so helpless, all because of that damned drugced tea.


    "Ma’am, I think it would be better to restrain Mr. Andersen. This way, when his addiction res up


    again, he won''t harm himself or others," Dr. Frankie whispered.


    Reluctantly, Natalia nodded. "Alright, be careful with him. Don''t let him get hurt."


    Dr. Frankie signaled, and the other doctors brought in the chains they had prepared earlier. Unable to


    bear the sight of the shiny, cold chains, Natalia turned away, her gaze falling on the setting sun outside


    the window. How much longer would this ordealst? She felt like she was about to break.


    Meanwhile, chaos erupted at Andersen Corporation due to Magnus'' prolonged absence, which


    unsettled the major shareholders.


    Whenever they tried to contact Magnus, they were met with a stammering Natalia, which only


    increased their suspicions. For their own interests, the shareholders decided to approach Lucius.


    Lucius, who had been lying low for fear of Magnus discovering his misdeeds, saw an opportunity when


    the shareholders came to him. After assuring them of hismitment to resolving the issue and


    indulging them with somevish entertainment, Lucius began his investigation.


    Soon, his subordinates reported that Magnus'' absence was due to a serious illness. However, the


    nature of the illness was unknown due to tight information control.

    To uncover the truth about Magnus'' condition, Lucius decided to visit Morgan. As he entered Morgan''s


    mansion, Lucius was met with a cold snort, "What brings you here? I don''t want to see you."


    By now, Morgan knew about Lucius'' past misdeeds and was disgusted by him, even considering


    kicking him out.


    Desperate, Lucius feigned tears. "Grandpa, I know I was wrong. But I''vee to see you about


    something important. It''s about Magnus... he''s sick."


    Morgan, who was enjoying tea in the courtyard, was so shocked that he dropped his cup. "What?


    Magnus is sick? What''s wrong with him?"


    "Yes, Grandpa. He''s currently in our private hospital. If you don''t believe me, you cane and see for


    yourself," Lucius said with a smile hidden underneath his feigned concern.


    Hastily, Morgan headed towards the hospital, "Let''s go!"


    With a satisfied grin, Lucius followed Morgan, hoping that Magnus would never recover from his illness.


    When Morgan and Lucius arrived at the Andersen family''s private hospital, Natalia was unaware of any


    of this.


    Morgan stormed into the hospital and demanded, "Where is everyone? Show yourselves!"


    Just as Dr. Frankie was securing Magnus, he heard Morgan''s familiar voice and groaned inwardly. He


    ran out, intending to stop Morgan, only to see him marching towards Magnus'' room.


    "Quickly, get Natalia. We can''t let Morgan know about Magnus'' drug problem," he whispered to a


    doctor before hurrying to intercept Morgan.


    Dr. Frankie hurriedly walked towards Morgan, "Mr. Morgan, why are you here?"


    "Hmph!" Morgan mmed his cane on the ground, "If I hadn''te, how long were you nning to


    keep this secret from me? Speak up, where is Magnus?"


    "Well, uh, that..." Dr. Frankie stammered, deliberately lengthening his words to stall for time, secretly


    praying that Natalia would hurry over.


    Morgan, growing impatient with Dr. Frankie''s stalling, demanded, "Enough with the games, where is


    Magnus?"


    Just then, Natalia''s voice came from behind Dr. Frankie, "Grandpa? Why are you here?"


    Morgan, already displeased with Natalia, was now convinced that she was deliberately hiding Magnus''


    condition. His fury was beyond words.


    The sound of his cane echoed through the room as he fixed a bitter re on Natalia. "What? Should I


    not be here? Should I wait until you''ve killed my grandson before I show up? Where have you hidden


    Magnus? Why didn’t you tell me he was sick?"


    Natalia felt the sting of his words, especially given the audience. She knew who was behind this -


    Lucius, who followed Morgan like a shadow. The despicable Lucius would surely kick Magnus when he


    was down if he knew about his current condition. Regardless, she had to prevent them from seeing


    Magnus in his current state.


    "Grandpa," she began, attempting to concoct a believable lie. "Magnus isn''t here. It''s me. I am the one


    who is sick, and Dr. Frankie is treating me."


    Her words fell t. Morgan, weathered by age and life, wasn''t fooled. Through her swollen, teary eyes,


    he saw things weren''t as simple as she was making them out to be. His disappointment in Natalia


    grew, and he pushed her aside. "Move out of my way! If you don''t let me see Magnus, then I''ll find him


    myself! I don''t believe for a second that I can''t find him in this small hospital."
