Chapter 183
The Imposter Bride
I that Michael and isabella had severed their relationship, he couldnât bring me to for their past camaraderie Two days inter news arrived that isabella was missing Magnus sat motionless, staring blankly at the azure expanse of ocean his face devoid of any expression Who knew what he was thinking?
Nine years ago, he had been betrayed by Lucius, which resulted in him losing his legs. Afterwards, Isabella abandoned him. He had managed to endure all of that The time he had lost his legs again but had also lost his beloved wife. He surmised that he probably couldnât pull through this time. Even if he dealt with those who had betrayed his wife, he couldnât bring her back Magnus continued to gaze emptily at the sea every day. Outside his window, the sea wind rustled, and the waves seemed to sigh with regret and longing Morgan tred several times to cheer Magnus up, reminding him that the company could not go one day without a leader But Magnus still lived in his memories of Natalia. He no longer cared about any company matters, leaving everything to Paul Carter and Chase also had their hands full On the day of Carters return to France, an irate Morgan announced that Lucius would temporarily take over as the company president. When Magnus received the news, he showed no reaction Lucius strutted around Andersen Corporation with his shoes shining, and his suit perfectly tailored. He was full of pride and satisfaction Finally, Magnus, that bastard had lost his legs again, and Lucius had smoothly taken over Andersen Corporation while Magnus was recuperating The feeling of power was so wonderful!
Even though Morgan said it was temporary, once Lucius had this position, he would never give it up!
However, he regretted that Magnus had only lost his legs, and hadnât been killed it was so frustrating!
He was afraid that one day, that cripple would stand up again and take his position âBut this is also not bad Magnus, do you want to fight with me? Youâve ended up losing your wife and child, and now you have to sit in a wheelchair Lucius thought Hahaha he was the rightful president of Andersen Corporation!
With these thoughts, Lucius opened the door to his office and walked in This was Magnus former office it was neatly arranged and meticulously maintained.
Lucius looked around the room and sneered, âWhat kind of taste does Magnus have? The office of a CEO doesnât have a single decoration Itâs so shabbyâ After saying this, Lucius called his assistant give you half a day to redecorate this office to be grand and opulent. If you canât do it, pack your bags, and get out After the call Lucius felt much better. He leaned back in his luxurious office chair and closed his eyes to rest in the peaceful environment, Lucius suddenly thought of Kendra. It had been a long time since he had seen her in fact, this time, it was all thanks to her that Magnus was brought down and Natalia and Magnus son were killed. Now that he had taken the position of CEO, why hadnât she come to see him?
She shouldâve been eager to flatter him and even willing to lick his shoes that was just the woman she was!
With this thought, he casually dialed Kendras number, eager to have her come over and satisfy his vanity Ding DingâDingâ
The phone was quickly answered, and Lucius frivolously asked. âKendra, do you know where I am?â
He was expecting to hear Kendraâs familiar voice, but instead, an anxious voice from Addison came from the other end of the line âYouâre Lucius, night? Mr. Andersen, Kendra has been missing for several days!â
âWhat? Lucius instantly dropped his smile, sat up straight, and asked seriously. âWhat happened? How could she just disappear?â
On the other end of the phone. Addison was choking up, clearly having cried for a long time 1, I donât know, I found Kendraâs phone at our front door itâs been several days now, and she never came home I donât know where she went âHow could this happen? Did you report it to the police? Lucius asked.
âI did, but the police said that the surveillance at our front door was broken There was some surveillance footage of Kendra coming home from a camera further away, but it didnât show what happened at our front door Kendra, she just disappeared without a trace Addison cried.
On the phone Addison pleaded with Lucius. Mr Andersen, I beg you, you must save Kendra Even though Lucius was a heartless man, he still had a soft spot for Kendra â she was his first woman.
He was far from being deeply in love with her, as he didnât understand what love was But regarding Kendraâs sudden disappearance, Lucius was also caught off guard in Melfort everyone knew that Kendra was Lucius woman Who would dare to lay a hand on her? Lucius comforted Addison with a few words and quickly hung up the phone He sat at his desk frowning as he pondered the reasons for Kendraâs disappearance Who would be so bold?
Suddenly a thought flashed across Lucius mind â Magnus? That was right, if anyone in Melfort didnât take Lucius seriously, it was probably only Magnus, right? He must have found out that Kendra had betrayed Natalia But where had he taken Kendra?
He didnât kill Kendra, did he? This thought flashed through Lucius mind, and without any hesitation Lucius immediately called Magnus.
The phone was picked up and Magnus cold, distant voice came from the other end âWhat is it?â
âTsk, tsk tsk. Magnus, such disrespect for your own brother? Shouldnât you at least call me Lucius or Mr Andersen?â Upon hearing Magnus lackluster Magnus was in a foul mood and intentionally provoked him with a sarcastic tone âMr Andersen? | hope youâll take that title to your grave! The icy voice that echoed from the phone seemed to originate straight from heli ne, Lucius knew A shiver ran down Lucius spine He retorted sharply Magnus, donât tell me youâre losing your temper now Ive told you before, you wonât be able to hold onto your CEO position for long See, not even a year has passed, and you we resignedâ
âHa, ha, back in the wheelchair again, are you? How does it feel. Magnus? Are you enjoying your days of mourning your wile and sun? Lucius sheered from his chan Upon hearing his words. Magnus cellphone began to twist and warp in his grip, and the veins on his fomhead were buiging in agitation in an instant, with a phone was crushed in half Listening to the disconnected dial tone coming from his phone, Lucius was so infuriated he nearly threw his own phone âDamn you, Magnus, hanging up But as he lifted his phone, Lucius changed his mind. He still had to contact Kendra Left with no other choice he dialed Magnum muniber again.
