Chapter 551
Anna wolfed down the delightful snacks without hesitation, while the gifts were left untouched, tossed into a corner of her home.
She didn''t even bother to unwrap them, let alone show them to Johanson. She knew that even if she did, Johanson would just
instruct her to throw them away.
And so, Anna and Johanson began their contented life in Ottawa, enjoying thefort and ease of their days. Whenever they
had some free time, Johanson would take Anna out to explore and witness the majestic beauty of nature.
Seeing Anna''s beaming smile, Johanson felt a deep sense of contentment. His sole purpose was to raise Anna well, to ensure
she had a carefree and happy life!
On the shores of Hawaii, Natalia, dressed in a bohemian-style maxi dress, held hands with Magnus as they strolled leisurely
along the beach. Her health had improved dramatically since their ordeal, herplexion now rosy and vibrant.
After a close brush with death, Natalia had also received some astonishing news. Whether it was a misdiagnosis by the doctors
or her near-death experience that triggered her body''s healing, the prior diagnosis of ALS had beenpletely overturned.
After a month of careful recuperation, Natalia was healthier than ever, feeling stronger in speech and stride than before.
They had moved into a newly built vi, embarking on a fresh start and their own slice of happiness.
After days of negotiating with Jonas, Magnus finally managed to send away the little nuisance that had been disrupting their
marital bliss. They no longer had to worry about an awkward third wheel during their intimate moments.
The sea breeze fluttered Natalia’s dress and her soft hair, creating a stunning scene.
Magnus gazed at her lovingly, intertwining their fingers. “Darling, | me myself for not realizing the pain you’ve been through.
Just promise me, from now on, that whatever happens, you''ll tell me everything, okay?"Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org.
Natalia was aware that Magnus was referring to the ALS misdiagnosis and smiled gracefully. "Don''t worry. The doctor said it was
just a mistake."
"Thank goodness it was a mistake. Darling, would you have kept it from me forever if it hadn''t been?" Magnus asked as they sat
side by side on the sand. "We''re husband and wife. We should have no secrets between us. I''m your husband, and | want to
share every joy and sorrow with you and face everything together. Please don''t deny me that right, okay?"
Natalia felt a twinge in her heart as she gazed at Magnus. He was so perfect and devoted. She must have saved a gxy in her
past life to deserve him. She rested her head on Magnus''p, looking up at his slightly stubbled chin, overwhelmed with love.
“Honey, thank you. | love you."
Magnus leaned down, affectionately rubbing his nose against hers, his eyes brimming with adoration. "| love you more, my
darling.”
Their lips met in a tender dance, expressing their deep love and sweetness, even making the seaside breeze hesitate to disturb
them. As the sun dipped into the ocean, painting the sky in brilliant hues of red, it seemed as peaceful as the calm before a
storm.
As night fell silently, Natalia and Magnus returned to their new home and snuggled up on the couch watching TV when there was
a knock at the door.
The maid went to answer and soon returned with a message, "Sir, madam, there''s a visitor at the door iming to be madam''s
brother."
Her brother? Could it be Cal? Natalia leaped up from the couch excitedly. "I''ll go see. It could be Cal." Magnus also suspected it
was Callum, and his face soured at the thought of someone disturbing their peaceful life.
They hurried to the door only to find Henry, not Callum. d in military attire and boots, Henry strode in with authority. "Natalia,
do you know where Alice is?"
"Yes, | do," Natalia nodded subtly.
"We don''t!" Magnus countered at the same moment.
Their conflicting responses instantly had Henry furrowing his brow. He suspiciously stared at Natalia. "Well, which is it?"
Natalia realized she''d misspoken.
Although Alice had been driven out,
she was still Henry''s sister. Blood
was thicker than el Sis reattar! |
W eckless Age''s past actions,
nry would be furious to learn that
Magnus had left her on a deserted
ind. But Natalia was sure Alice
was alive; the ind had coconuts
and bananas, and with Alice''s strong
will to live, she wouldn''t starve. Plus,
Alice might have already been
rescued! Please read the original

With this thought, Natalia''s face paled. She looked at Magnus for help, unsure how to answer Henry.
Magnus had thought about this, too,
which was why he had denied seeing
Alice. Since Henr badsgamesoate
teypetg noise, he ust have caught
some leads. Magnus decided not to
hide it anymore and nodded, "Yes, we
did see Alice before, but she''s not
with us anymore." Please read the

Henry''s gaze turned fierce, his attention solely on Natalia. "Natalia, tell me, where has Alice gone?"
Natalia was never one for fibs, and as she slowly turned around, she looked like a deer caught in headlights, silent.
"Hmm?" Henry hummed skeptically through his nose, his expression filled with doubt.
Faced with Henry''s questioning gaze,
Natalia decided to drop the act and
confront him with the truth. "Henry,
even though we''re half-siblings, |
know you can tellsighehom wr ng.
Anpics''Sn\fy reason you''de here
thiste is if you''ve dug up some dirt.
Yes, you''re right, Alice was at my
ce. But she had ill intentions and
nned to do me in and take my
ce. So, | just gave her a taste of
her own medicine. | had Magnus
maroon her on a deserted ind
where she once held me captive."
