Chapter 539
“Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!" Alice''sughter peeled through the air, her head thrown back in utter delight. "Oh, Natalia, dear Natalia, | so
regret not capturing that moment on camera. Just imagine the agony you would''ve felt seeing it!"
Hearing Alice''s grating cackle, Magnus felt his anger boiling to the point of eruption. Yet, for Natalia''s safety, he had to endure!
"Come here, Magnus. Kiss me," Alice teased with a crooked finger, her voice dripping with provocation. "Every day, I''ve watched
Natalia blush and swoon under your passionate kisses. You must be quite the expert, huh? Now, please me, and maybe I''ll
consider making things a bit easier for dear Natalia."
Magnus clenched his fists. His face turned a shade of thunderous green, utterly disgusted by the shameless creature before him.
But his anger didn''t cloud his judgment, and he asked coolly, "You''ve seen us?"
"Don''t believe me?" Alice hastily grabbed a rag and bent over, mimicking the diligent work of her alter ego ''Reba’ the maid,
then looked up at him with triumph in her eyes. "Tell me, Mr. Andersen, am | doing a satisfactory job in my role as your maid?"
It dawned on Magnus that the mute maid, whom Natalia had so kindly taken in, was none other than Alice herself. She had been
scheming from the start, waiting for the perfect moment to get close to his wife. The treachery was beyond belief!
As Magnus remained silent, Alice''sughter grew louder and more obnoxious. "Oh, | am quite proud of myself, you know. That
dimwit Natalia and her saintly ways, thinking the world is full of poor souls in need of saving. Ha! It''s a wonder she''s made it this
far in life with such naivety."
Magnus red at Alice with revulsion. "Don''t be so smug. Your heart is too poisoned to understand my wife''s goodness!"
“What was that? I''m poisoned?" Alice''s eyes narrowed dangerously as sheughed hysterically. "Magnus, to be human is to be
deceitful and cruel. It''s only because men like you have been coddled Natalia that she can afford to y the saint, pretending to
protect everyone, when she can''t even protect herself. How utterly childish!"
“Enough! Do not insult my wife!" Magnus strode forward, towering over the repulsive figure sprawled on the sofa. "Where is
she?" Hismanding presence loomed over Alice.
Faced with his murderous re, Alice lost her amusement and pointed to her lipsmandingly. "Kiss me, please me, and I''ll
tell you where she is."
Magnus’ brow furrowed deeply, using every ounce of strength to refrain from ending the life of the woman who was unting her
power before him. Without a second thought, his hand swung out in a p. "You disgust me!"
Alice hit the floor hard, slowly getting up with a bloody lip. "If you won''t cooperate, don''t me me for being heartless!"
Magnus pointed at her fiercely. "Tell me where my wife is, or you won''t live to see another day!"
“Ha! Impossible!" Alice''s eyes gleamed maliciously.
Magnus grabbed the phone. "Send people to search for my wife immediately, and get someone to take care of the woman in the
mansion!" His eyes were full of deadly intent as he stared at Alice like she was already a corpse.
Alice smirked, "You''ll never find Natalia. No one knows where she is except for me. Ha! Ha! Ha!"
"Just please me, do what you do with Natalia, and I''ll tell you where she is," Alice challenged.
Magnus’ gaze softened in apparent concession, his head bowing. "Not today. | can''t. | cannot!" he said before striding toward the
door. He was sure that as long as Alice wanted revenge on Natalia, she wouldn''t harm her—for now.
Magnus couldn''t waste any more time with Alice; he needed to find clues to rescue his wife quickly. As he reached the door, his
gaze turned icy.
Alice, furious at his departure, stomped her foot. "Magnus, stop! If you don''te back, | swear I''ll have Natalia destroyed!"
His step halted, his fists clenched in a gamble on Alice''s twisted psyche. "Fine, | have urgent matters now, but I''ll fulfill your
requestter."
Hehe, he would fulfill Alice''s wish soon!
"| only asked you to kiss me! Not to sleep with me. What the hell are you faking!" Alice was so angry that her face distorted. She
didn''t believe that this outstanding man would ignore her like she was trash.

Shortly after, Paul arrived with backup. "Mr. Andersen!"
"Take control of the woman in the mansion. No outside contact. She''s kidnapped my wife," Magnus ordered quietly.
"Understood."
Magnus strode to his car, his energy ebbing as he sank into the driver''s seat. The weight of the situation was crushing—Alice
had won Natalia’s trust in disguise, and now his wife was in unknown danger.
He watched the security footage, seeing Alice load an unconscious Natalia into a car before disappearing.
Now, time was of the essence. Every minute wasted meant unknown perils for Natalia. Magnus knew what he had to do—find
his wife, and fast. It had only been a day, surely she couldn''t have gone far.
Magnus'' heart pounded like a drum as he revved up his car, peeled out of the driveway and drove away from the home that once
held such sweet memories.
