The Imposter Bride (Natalia and Magnus)

Chapter 432

After Jonas finished speaking, he remembered the days Magnus had fooled him into thinking Natalia had been sleeping beside him, while in reality, it was all Magnus’ trickery.

The more Jonas thought about it, the more irked he became. He crossed his little arms, sulking in the back seat of the car, and refused to speak to Magnus.

Seeing Jonas throw a mini tantrum, Natalia chuckled and tugged at his arm. “Alright, alright, from now on, | will cuddle with you at bedtime, okay?"

"Honey..." Magnus immediately voiced his protest.

Natalia shot Magnus a stern look. "I'm in the early stages of pregnancy. | need to be careful and nurture the baby. What are you thinking!?"Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

She knew Magnus all too well. If they continued to share a bed, he would undoubtedly be handsy and get up to no good. But during early pregnancy, it was critical to keep such activities in check, so it was best to set boundaries with Magnus early on.

Magnus was visibly deflated upon hearing her words. The joy he had felt from learning about Natalia's pregnancy vanished in an instant.

“Honey, we can still sleep together. Don't worry, | will take very good care of you," Magnus tried to negotiate some benefits for himself. Even if intimacy was off the table, he had grown accustomed to falling asleep with Natalia in his arms. The thought of being separated from her was unbearable!

However, Natalia was firm in her refusal, slowly shaking her head. "No, it's not possible!"

Magnus' face fell, and he was filled with gloom. If he had known that pregnancy would lead to separation, he would have never been so eager to ‘plant the seeds.’ Now it seemed like a loss, completely not worth it!

In contrast to Magnus’ gloom, Jonas was gleefully shaking his head. Happily hugging Natalia's arm, he exclaimed, "Mommy, | can finally be with you. This is so great!"

"Hehe," Natalia laughed softly, tucking Jonas close to her. "Are you really that happy?"

"Of course! I've missed your embrace for so long." Jonas wrinkled his nose at Magnus, who was driving. "Ha! Now Mommy is all mine. I'm so happy, yay!"

Magnus had seen Jonas little antics in the rearview mirror and shook his head in irritation. There was nothing he could do; his wife's word was law. Otherwise, he would have definitely given the little brat a spanking!

The car slowly made its way to the cozy home shared by Magnus and Natalia, filled with laughter and the warmth of a happy family.

Since Natalia became pregnant, her appetite had improved significantly, and she found herself sleeping more and more. Perhaps it was due to her personal constitution, but even after eating so much, she showed no signs of bloating. Her limbs remained slender, with only her belly gradually showing a slight bulge as time passed.

To take better care of Natalia, Magnus had become a veritable house-husband, always on call, dutifully attending to her every need.

He regretted not giving her enough attention during her previous pregnancy with Jonas, which led to misunderstandings and suffering for her, including a fall into the sea and amnesia. This time, he was determined not to repeat the same mistakes. Even if it meant putting all his work aside, he needed to take care of Natalia.

“Honey, are you thirsty? Should | get you some water?" “Honey, are you hungry? Should | whip up something for you to eat?" "Honey, are you sleepy? Do you want to rest your head on my lap?"

Every day, these phrases were like a mantra for Magnus, his attentiveness almost overwhelming for Natalia. She looked at the overzealous Magnus with a mix of amusement and exasperation. "Can't you relax a bit? I'm just in the early stages of pregnancy; I'm not that incapacitated yet. And don't you have a business to run? Can't you attend to your work sometimes?"

Magnus showed a rare patience, pointing to Natalia’s slightly swollen belly. "Honey, you're already on the path to being significantly pregnant. Isn't it only right for me to take extra care of you while you're carrying our child? Compared to that, my company is trivial."

While his words were sweet to Natalia's ears, she was no longer the dependent woman she once was. It was just a pregnancy, after all, and Natalia didn't see the need for Magnus to hover around the house attending to her every need.

So, to find some peace, Natalia thought it was essential to encourage Magnus to focus more on his work and not just on her.

“Magnus, | feel like you've been overly cautious lately. It's putting some pressure on me, so | hope you can shift some of your energy back to your work, is that okay?" Natalia spoke earnestly, hoping Magnus would understand her sentiment.

Magnus paused, not realizing he might have been overdoing it. He yearned to make up for the lost ti with Natalia, a alneWantedWas to year Hera little better for the rest of their lives. However, if his actions were causing her stress, he decided it would be best not to add to it, as pregnant women indeed could become anxious and irritable.

Suddenly, Natalia felt a lump in her throat. This man, once so wild and unyielding, had always seemed to tower above everyone else, and had never before considered anyone else's feelings. But now, he was willing to change for her, to step back for her sake. How lucky she was!

"|... it's not a bother, I... 1... “ Natalia stammered, unable to find the words as tears began to tumble down her cheeks.

Magnus panicked, hastily pulling out a tissue to dab at her tears. "Darling, we were having such a nice tal why t watenworks\s Ota sudden?
