Chapter 325

Like a dagger, Callum’s words ruthlessly stabbed Magnus‘ heart, causing him unbearable pain with each jab Magnus lifted his head, his eyes filled with guilt and regret. “Yes, I am the one to blame for all this. I was too careless and let such a foolish thing happen to me. No matter the cost, I will find her!” He vowed to bring Natalia back to him. He knew she couldn’t return to him, but he could go to her.

“Darling, I will find you, even if I have to search to the ends of the earth. Jonas and I can’t go on without you!” He clutched his chest, allowing the pain to radiate throughout his body.

Lexi reached out and gave Callum a pinch, scolding him in a low voice, “If you can help the couple with their trouble, just do it If not, then just shut up. Why are you making such snide remarks?!”

Callum touched his nose in embarrassment. “Lexi, I was just sticking up for Natalia, that’s all After being reprimanded, Callum fell silent, hanging his head low like a hen–pecked husband Seeing Callum quiet down, Lexi turned her attention to the disheartened Magnus “Magnus, I’m truly sorry to hear about you and Natalia | didn’t expect that after all the twists and turns, you two would still end up apart. Go find her. She needs you We’ll also keep an eye out for Natalia, and I’ll let you know as soon as we hear something Go now, don’t let her wander alone for too long”

After finishing, Lexi dragged Callum out of Magnus office In the elevator, Callum was not pleased with Lexi’s actions. He frowned in discontent. “Lexi, why didn’t you let me give that jerk Magnus a good beating? Is it because you think I’m still in love with Buttercup?

Lexi, I admit I still care about her, but I swear, it’s purely platonic Please don’t overthink.” As he spoke, he stole glances at Lexi, afraid that she would misconstrue his feelings for Natalia.

Lexi adjusted her hair in the elevator mirror before looking at Callum. “You’re the one who’s overthinking I only agreed to try dating you for a while. That doesn’t mean I’m tied to you forever. There are so many handsome men in the world. If one doesn’t work out, there will always be another”

Upon hearing this, Callum’s eyes widened in panic. He quickly wrapped his arms around Lexi “No!

Lexi, how can you do this to me? You have no choice but to be with me for the rest of your life. There can’t be a next one, never ever!”

The mere thought of Lexi being with another guy hurt Callum’s heart. He was determined not to let her out of his sight again.

Callum’s sudden embrace took Lexi aback She was thankful that they were alone in the elevator But thinking of the security cameras, she knew the guard watching the footage would be having a good laugh.

“Callum, can you act a bit more mature? This is Melfort. Can you show me some respect? Lexi complained, stomping on Callum’s foot with her heel in anger Callum winced in pain and finally let go of Lexi, grinning sheepishly as he defended himself, “Lexi, what can I do? I can’t control myself when I’m with you! Do you know how worried I was when you left?”

He was scared when she was almost eaten by a bear, but his heart was broken into pieces when she ran away He couldn’t imagine his life without her Lexi shot Callum a glance, her heart secretly filled with sweetness. This guy always said romantic things at the most inappropriate times and places The elevator soon reached the ground floor. Lexi stepped out and looked at Callum “Let’s go “Okay” Callum agreed absently, then asked. “Um, where are we going?”

Lexi gave Callum another look, her cheeks flushing a rosy pink “Where else could we be going? We’re going to see my parents, of course ‘Great‘ Let’s go see them Callum exclaimed enthusiastically, causing the lobby staff to turn and stare Embarrassed by all the attention. Lexi walked briskly towards the exit “Hmph. I’m not talking to you anymore!”

“Lexi wait for me wait for me Callum shouted after her a triumphant grin on his face in the office building above. Magnus silently watched Callum and Lexis antics on the surve while this British guy is on our turf should we teach him a lesson?”

Magnus shook his head indifferently. He’s found someone else. He won’t be coming after my wife anymore. Why should bother with them be James, you need to keep searching for my wife and check the ports for any sign of her. She’s been hurt too I can’t stand to see her hurt anymore “Magnus, how can you say such things? It’s all Belle’s fault if not for her you and Natala might have had another cháo bị his words the moment they left his mouth. Why did he have to bring up such a serisike As expected the office fell into a heavy silence following James words Magnus stared out into the distance, his tonging for his wife stretching on endlessly Darling where are you? Are you doing well?

Can you hear my thoughts calling out to you?”

No matter what he had to find his wife Three days later Magnus had made all the necessary arrangements and set off from the Fareham harbor, following could have taken But time and again, disappointment was all he found Magnus found himself alone in England, hoping against hope t might return to the McKinney homestead After all, it her home However, Rowell claimed not to have seen Natalia Magnus stood cobblestone streets of England, iscking “Darling, if you’re out there, could you give me a sign?” Ha mutteraid to himself. “ned you, and Jonas misers you terbay
