The Imposter Bride Chapter 139

Chapter 139 

How can we start the evening without you, Mrs. Andersen? You have to be there,” Magnus gently cajoled over the phone. 

le wished he could immediately bring her close to soothe her, and make things right. If she wasn’t there tonight, he wouldn’t be in the mood to host any elebration. 

Magnus, I really don’t want to go. I have plans with Lexi to discuss our participation in a French art exhibition,‘ she explained. Their school had secured hree spots for students to participate in a renowned French comic competition, and she and Lex had applied hoping to see their friend Sabrina. Upon hearing her outright refusal. Magnus furrowed his brow into a tight knot, his expression darkening significantly. He silently hung up the phone Natalia assumed he had given in, allowing her to skip the company’s anniversary dinner After school, she, Lexi, and another classmate met with their utor to discuss their upcoming trip to France 

The Andersen Corporation’s annual celebration went on as scheduled. As the CEO, Magnus delivered speeches and handed out awards. However, his nood was visibly sour, especially during the after–dinner dance party, because Natalia didn’t show up. 

He sat sullenly in a corner, nursing a glass of brandy, one after another, drowning his disappointment. 

Was he not affectionate enough? Was he not treating her well? How could she actually skip the dinner Dame it! 

Without her, he felt a profound emptiness. As the rest of the partygoers danced and laughed, he was alone, nursing his loneliness and frustration ‘Magnus, don’t drink too much, Chase advised, noticing his friend’s foul mood. Everyone knew Magnus was upset because his wife, Natalia, hadn’t come Magnus shot Chase a glance, continuing to down his brandy and finally slamming the crystal glass on the table impatiently, “Enough with the chatter, drink with me.” 

“Enough, Magnus You’re going to get drunk,” Chase warned, eyeing the three empty bottles on the table. 

Today, of all days, Magnus couldn’t afford to get drunk. The celebration dinner was far from over, and it wouldn’t do for the CEO to pass out. 

“Drunk” A good idea, I could use it to forget my sorrows, Magnus replied, pouring two more glasses and shoving one towards Chase, Drink with me.” 

Realizing he was stuck, Chase sighed and obliged. 

Everyone knew how formidable Magnus could be, and Chase wasn’t eager to push his luck. He had never seen Magnus drink so much, nor had he ever seen his friend express his pain in such a way. 

Ah, love was so complicated. It had reduced even the mighty Magnus to this state. But fine, he thought, he would accompany his friend. They were buddies after all.. 

Chase joined Magnus in his drinking, indifferent to the socialites and dignitaries around them. However, they were unaware that they were being observed 

Isabella arrived early for the Andersen Corporation’s banquet, dressed in a sexy backless outfit. Her lips were seductively red, her makeup exquisite, and her walk exuded an alluring presence. 

When Magnus was giving his speech, she watched him with an entranced gaze, admiring his poise and intelligence. She had loved him since she was young and was determined to win him back, no matter what it took. 

Upon spotting Magnus in the corner of the room, she seized her opportunity. 

She retouched her makeup, reapplied her perfume, and adjusted her dress to reveal more of her back before heading towards him. 

“Magnus, there you are. She feigned surprise and sat down next to him, acting as if they were old friends. 

Chase moved a little to the side, wary of her intentions and overwhelmed by her overpowering perfume. 

Magnus, somewhat drunk by now, looked up at the mention of his name and saw isabella He furrowed his brows, “Isabella, what are you doing here?” 

By now, Magnus was already somewhat intoxicated, overwhelmed by a sense of frustration due to Natalia’s absence. He had no particular feelings for isabella, only treating her as a friend 

Hearing Magnus call her by her name, Isabella felt flattered. She quickly picked up a wine glass and said with a charming smile, “Come, Magnus, let me drink with you” With that, she took a delicate sip of her drink, her eyes seductively fixed on Magnus, awaiting his adoring gaze 

However Magnus didn’t even bother to look at her. He was already half drunk and was preoccupied with pouring more liquor into his mouth upon hearing someone was joining him for a drink 

isabella was frantic inside, yet she dared not show it. She wished she could catch Magnus‘ eye and make him notice her. She knew how radiant and captivating she looked today 

From the side, Chase saw through Isabella’s attempts. He had no respect for women who threw themselves at men like this and sneered slightly 

Isabella didn’t notice Chase’s contemptuous action, her mind fully occupied with thoughts of how to draw Magnus attention to herself After all, she was wearing her sexiest backless dress today. With her perfect curves, she couldn’t believe there would be a man who could resist her 

“Magnus, how about we hit the dance floor?” Isabella tried to maintain her appearance of graceful composure as she extended her hand towards Magnus. 

Magnus squinted at Isabella and suddenly remembered that his wife was not coming today, that she didn’t take him into consideration at all. He hadn’t danced yet today Rising to his feet, he said, “Alright, let’s have a dance”
