Chapter 169
Looking at the mess downstairs, it was clear as day that Mr. Magnus had thrown another tantrum. Ah,
the fiery temper of youth. Quick to break things when upset, and seemingly oblivious to the cost
That being said, Magnus was far from lacking in funds. To him, these mere objects were nothing more
than trash. But, Natalia was with child. Such outbursts were risky because if anything were to
happen….
May thought to herself, subtly signaling to Linden, who was bent over picking up the debris, to try and
calm Natalia down. Linden caught the hint but was at a loss on how to handle this.
They shared a look of uncertainty, unsure of how to comfort Natalia. They were both well into their 50s,
and it was clear to them that Magnus and Natalia cared deeply for each other. And yet, Magnus always
managed to upset Natalia, while she, in turn, could easily infuriate him.
Ah, the world of the young was truly a puzzle!
As May and Linden deliberated on how to soothe a distraught Natalia, she suddenly experienced
another bout of pain in her abdomen. Her face turned pallid with pain, and she couldn’t help but let out
a soft groan
Hearing Natalias discomfort, May rushed over to find Natalia’s face pale and covered with cold sweat.
“Ma’am? Ma’am, what’s wrong?” May was terrified. She reached out to touch Natalia’s forehead, it was
cold and drenched with sweat.
What do we do? Linden, call Mr. Magnus, quickly! May urged Linden, fearing that any delay would put
Natalia, who already had fragile health, and her unborn child at risk.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLinden nodded and dialed Magnus number. “Sir, the lady isn’t feeling well. Something seems off
Magnus, who was en route to Sapphire Island, slammed on the brakes upon hearing Linden’s words
Linden was cut off halfway through his sentence by Magnus roar from the other end of the line. “You
were supposed to take care of her! What have you been doing?” He hung up the phone before Linden
could respond.
Linden put away his phone, looking helpless. He told May. “Mr. Magnus is furious. We’re in for it.”
‘So be it! It’s his fault she’s in this state. I’ll give him a piece of my mind!” May was anxious about
Natalia’s condition. If anything happened to the child. how would she explain it to Morgan?
While May and Linden were in a state of panic, Magnus car screeched to a halt outside their beach
house. He flung open the car door and sprinted inside out of breath. What happened? She was fine
when I left. What’s wrong with her?”
Linden remained silent, and his head was bowed. But May, being the straightforward person she was,
retorted, “Sir, she’s pregnant. She can’t be stressed out like this it’s your fault this time. Can’t you avoid
arguing with her for the baby’s sake?”
May’s words were cut short by Linden pulling at her sleeve, signaling her to say no more. May glared at
Linden, feeling wronged. Was she not right? It was Magnus fault, after all
Normally, Magnus would have dismissed May on the spot for speaking to him in this manner, but this
time, he let it slide. Instead, he instructed them to call the family doctor
Given their distance from Melfort, they had a family doctor stationed on Sapphire Island. Remembering
this, Linden rushed downstairs to fetch the doctor
Magnus and Natalia were upstairs, and she was now trembling all over. He looked at Natalia’s petite
figure. Her belly was swollen, and she was lying pale–faced on the bed. An overwhelming sense of
regret washed over Magnus.
He was sorry. He shouldn’t have lost his temper. She was already going through the trials of
pregnancy, so why couldn’t he just be more patient with her?
This little woman always managed to push his buttons
Regretting his outburst, Magnus wondered if he had scared Natalia, or worse, their child. With this
thought, Magnus leaned over Natalia, gently running his fingers through her hair
Her sweat–soaked hair felt smooth against his fingers Feeling his touch, Natalia, in her delirious state,
reached out and grabbed his hand, whispering, “Mom, I miss you Let me go…”
Hearing an unconscious Natalia call out for her mother and talk of leaving him, Magnus felt as if a knife
was being twisted in his heart. The woman he loved so dearly was not only disregarding him but also
wanted to leave him. He had fallen head over heels in love for the first time and was being rejected and
abandoned What a cruel irony!
There was a knock at the door
Linden had led the family doctor upstairs and ushered him into the room. The ductor, carrying his
medical bag, conducted a thorough examination of Natalia He then turned to a worried Magnus and
said, “Sir, the lady suffered a panic attack, which was aggravated by her weakened state due to her
pregnancy She also seems to have caught a chill You need to take good care of her and keep her
spirits up. Any distress or sadness can be harmful to both her and the baby. She can’t take any

Magnus nodded, signaling to Linden to escort the doctor out
May immediately set about making the ginger tea
Since he couldn’t upset Natalia anymore, Magnus decided to keep out of her sight for a while. The
sight of him could only agitate her further
Magnus was crestfallen She didn’t love him anymore and wanted to leave him What was he to do?
“Please take good care of her. I won’t be showing my face around her for a while Magnus summoned
Linden and May, instructing them in careful detail. “Her care is in your hands now. If she feels unwell,
day or night, you must report to me immediately! No detail is too small, understood?”
With that, Magnus turned away Unable to bear looking at a sleeping Natalia, he descended the
staircase in desolation
Chapter 189
True to his word, Magnus didn’t return over the next few days. He did not want Natalia to feel upset by
his presence. He gave her ample space to nurture her pregnancy Since she didn’t love him, he’d
disappear from her sight.
However, he absolutely, absolutely, wouldn’t allow her to leave!
After the incident where she smashed things in her anger, Natalia barely spoke once she regained
consciousness. Even her smile became an infrequent visitor to her face. She spent each day sitting by
the balcony, staring out at the vast, limitless ocean. The thunderous sound of the waves added to her
melancholy.
