Chapter 446
Paul cast a nce at Natalia before turning to Magnus with a heartyugh. “Hey, Magnus! Congrats on the new addition to the
family. Don’t you worry, I''ll make sure the missus is as safe as houses!”
Once done, Paul summoned his team of eight bodyguards and split them into two shifts of four. Their mission was to stand guard
outside the vi round the clock, making damn sure not even a fly could buzz through.
The bodyguards scattered, each shown to their guest room by the housekeeper before taking up their posts as Paul had
ordered.
With these guardians at the vi, Magnus could finally breathe a sigh of relief about home security. He then took Paul to the
office, pinned a fancy title of Vice President on him, and asked Gabby to assist in his work.
With business taken care of, he could nowy back at home, devoting his full attention to Natalia, patiently awaiting the day she
would give birth.
With his sharp skills and Gabby’s support, Paul kept the business ticking like clockwork, and thepany''s profits soared.
In her spare moments, Gabby often swung by Magnus’ ce to mooch a meal and share office anecdotes with Natalia. Her wit
and humor always drew heartyughs from Natalia. Magnus couldn’t help but beam with pride at Gabby’s savvy, appreciating
her smarts and hard work.
After Gabby left, he and Natalia agreed that they had struck gold in hiring her and decided to double her bonus as a reward for
her dedication.
On payday, Gabby held her hefty sry and double bonus with a heavy heart, seated in her office and staring at the sunset
through the window, her emotions a whirlwind.
It was on a day like this, with the fiery sunset, that she had met her fate by the sea...
Somehow, sinceying eyes on him, she had been utterly captivated. Gabby felt anything was worth it to make him happy, to
earn his approval, and to see his smile. Even if it meant bargaining with the devil, selling her soul, or facing eternal damnation,
she''d press on fearlessly!
“Dummy, why does my heart ache so much when I’m doing all this for you? Is it because my love isn’t deep enough? Don’t
worry. Even if I’m damned, I''ll be with you, by your side! After all, you''re the man | pulled from the sea a year ago, the only
reason | keep going in this life, my love...”
Thanks to Paul and Gabby’s help, Magnus could now spend worry-free days by Natalia’s side. Magnus found new ways to make
herugh every day, fearing any sign of prenatal blues.
Time flew, and soon, Natalia was full-term.
Looking at her belly, swollen like an upturned mixing bowl, Natalia frowned and asked Magnus, who was peeling fruit beside her,
“We''re full-term now, but why isn’t there any movement?”
Magnus, focused on his task, replied without looking up, “Must not be time yet. Don’t worry.”
“How can | not? The little one’s been in there for almost ten months. Wouldn’t you want them toe out already?” Natalia
paused, then asked, “What do you think, is it a boy or a girl?”This belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
“I''d carry them if | could, but I’m not cut out for that, am I? Heh, darling, | appreciate all your hard work!” Magnus handed her the
peeled fruit. “Whether it’s a boy or a girl, I''ll love them just the same. But two ain’t enough. | dream of having a whole ser
team.”
They had chosen not to find out the baby’s gender, wanting it to be a surprise.
“Pffl” Natalia yfully spat at Magnus’ dream, “You''re just like Cal. Lexi wasining the other day, saying Cal wants to turn
her into a breeding sow. Seems you''re cut from the same cloth.”
Magnus quickly interjected, “Whoa there, darling, don’t lump me with Callum, that lug. I’m all charm and suave, nothing like that
brute.”
Magnus was clearly agitated at beingpared to Callum. Natalia, sensing his mood, changed the subject. “Touchy, aren’t we?
Never mind, I’ll give Lexi a call and see how she’s doing.”
After Natalia had her chat with Lexi, night had fallen, and a steady rain began to pour. Natalia never liked the rain; she went to
bed early after dinner.
Magnusy beside her, ready to massage her legs and arms on demand. Pregnancy had left Natalia perpetually exhausted, but
she had constant care with Magnus, the ever-doting husband.
Soon enough, Natalia drifted off to sleep, and after massaging her for a while, Magnus sumbed to sleep himself.
The rain kept drizzling outside, and in
the dead of night, Natalia suddenly

Magnus jolted awake, panic seizing him as he remembered the perilous delivery of their son Jonas. “Somebody, help! We''ve got
to get to the hospital!”
Magnus’ shout echoed through the vi, alerting the maids and bodyguards, who rushed to assist, ushering Natalia into a
luxurious car.

Throughout the drive, Natalia was caught in a relentless grip of pain. Her groans were low and suffering. By the time Magnus
screeched into the hospital parking lot, Natalia''s strength had ebbed away to nearly nothing.
The nurses swiftly transferred Natalia onto a gurney and hastened towards the maternity ward. Magnus, with his heart pounding
against his chest, kept pace beside her, following her into the delivery room.

Seeing the beads of sweat forming on Natalia''s forehead, Magnus clumsily pulled Natalia into his embrace, his voice soft and
comforting. “Darling, don’t be afraid. I’m right here with you, every step of the way.”
