Chapter 42
A week later, Dr. Frankie arrived to check on his wound. With a soft chuckle, he remarked, “Magnus,
you’ve been quite the baby these past few days. Your wound is healing quickly.”
Magnus glanced at the girl standing by his side, the corners of his mouth curving into an increasingly
wide smile.
Once Dr. Frankie had left, Magnus felt no need to continue pretending. Seeing Natalia step out, he sat
up, dressed, and began to stretch his legs. After a week in bed, he felt as though he was growing
moldy.
Natalia walked in after a while and saw him sitting in the wheelchair. She immediately went over to him.
“You’re up. Let me take you outside for some fresh air.”
She wheeled Magnus into the yard. The man’s gaze was deep, watching as she covered his knees
with a blanket. He reached out and took her small hand as she crouched at his feet, looking up at him.
Over the months they had spent together, he had grown gentler, at least he had stopped lashing out at
her. “Darling, you’ve taken such good care of me these past few days. I appreciate it. In a few days,
once I’m home, I’ll grant you one request. As long as it’s within. my power, I’ll make it happen,” he said,
looking deeply into her eyes.
She must have something she wanted to do. As long as she stayed by his side as his wife, he would do
whatever it took to make her happy. She was truly beautiful when she smiled
She was silent for a moment, staring at his handsome face. “You’ll really grant any request |
make?”
“Of course, as long as it’s reasonable,” he replied.
Natalia’s heart pounded. If she asked to go back to school, would he agree? It seemed
unlikely.
“What is it, darling? What do you want to do?” Magnus asked with a soft smile.
“I want to go back to school.” Natalia blurted out.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMagnus was taken aback. He had not expected her to ask to go back to school. “You really want to go
back to school?” he asked, furrowing his brows.
Seeing his change in expression, Natalia quickly laughed it off. “Just kidding, Magnus. I won’t go back
to school. If one day your leg gets better and you can stand up, I’ll go back and finish my studies then.
Not now.”
Magnus looked at the girl standing by his side. She was dressed in a white dress, her skin was
glowing, and there was intelligence in her eyes. She stood against the sun, which cast a halo around
her head.
She was still a student. She hadn’t graduated from college yet. From what he had seen these
past few months, she loved painting. She must have dreams that she had put on hold to
marry
him and move to Sapphire Island to repay a favor owed to Kendra.
If she was going to be his wife for the rest of her life, how could he not help her achieve her
dreams?
“Alright, I promise you. When the time comes, you can go back to school,” he said in a deep
voice.
Natalia looked at him in shock. She couldn’t believe that he had agreed to her request, but he had.
“You’re serious? You promise?” she asked, slowly crouching down and placing her hands on his legs.
He replied, “Of course. But you have to behave. When I’m in a good mood one day, I’ll let you go back
to school.”
“Okay, Magnus. Don’t worry. As long as I can go back to school, I’ll do whatever you ask.” Staring at
her small, fair hand on his leg, the hand that had bathed him every day and sometimes touched him in
places it shouldn’t, he swallowed hard. “Alright. In a couple of days, we’ll head to Melfort. We should
get some rest early tonight.” In truth, his wound had almost completely healed. He just wanted the girl
to take care of him a little longer.
After they had dinner, Natalia bathed him as usual and then went to the study to read and paint. That
night, Magnus wheeled himself into the bathroom. “I want to take a bath tonight. I’ve been wiped down
for a week, and I want a proper bath.”
Natalia watched as he removed his shirt. “Your wound can’t get wet.”
“No can do. I’ve been uncomfortable for days without a proper bath.”
With no other option, Natalia helped him into the bathtub. He looked at the shorts and said, “How can
you bathe with your shorts still on?”
“Then let’s just leave them on.” She was embarrassed to scrub him every day with a body like this, let
alone him getting naked.
“But how can I bathe with them on?” Magnus furrowed his brows, “You’ve seen it all before. There’s
nothing to be shy about.”
Left with no choice, Natalia watched as Magnus removed his shorts. She immediately moved behind
him to wash his back. Magnus sat in the bath, enjoying the girl’s service
Ten minutes passed, and Natalia was still washing his back Magnus frowned, his handsome face
darkening Was his back that dirty? She had nearly scrubbed his skin raw “Aren’t you going to wash the
front?” His deep voice echoed in her ears.
Natalia moved to his front, closing her eyes as she wiped him down with a towel He watched as she
squinted, irritated to the point of wanting to strangle her
“How can you wash me with your eyes closed?”
Natalia quickly opened her eyes, only to be greeted by the sight of his erect penis. She let out

a scream and ran out of the bathroom. Oh God, she had seen something she shouldn’t have.
When had he become such a pervert?
In the bathroom, Magnus watched as the girl fled, grimacing. He sighed and picked up a towel to wash
himself. He stood up, letting the warm water rinse him from head to toe.
When Magnus emerged from the bathroom, Natalia was nowhere to be found. He called out with a
dark expression, “Darling.”
Natalia, who was downstairs, heard him and immediately went up. “You…are you done
bathing?”

“If you weren’t going to wash me, was I supposed to sit in the bathtub until dawn?” His displeased
expression made him look somewhat cold.
“I’ll dry your hair.” Natalia quickly moved to him, noticing his sullen face. She grabbed the hair dryer and
began to dry his hair.
“As punishment for not bathing me tonight, you’ll sleep with me.” Magnus sat on the bed and made his
proclamation.
Natalia was taken aback, “Okay.” If she didn’t agree, would he throw a tantrum?
Dressed in his pajamas, Magnus waited for his hair to dry before lying down on the bed. He patted the
spot next to him, “Come over here.”
“I haven’t taken a bath yet. I’ll go take a bath first.” She picked up her nightgown and headed
for the bathroom.
Magnus picked up his phone and saw that James and the others were trying to get his
attention.
Chase: [Magnus, I heard from Frankie that you’ve been playing the baby card these past few days.
How’s that working out for you? (Teasing grin)]
James: [You can switch it up, you know. Just stay still, and let the little darling climb aboard.
(Mischievous smirk)]
Carter: [He injured his shoulder, not his back.]
Dr. Frankie [His legs and back are just fine. He’s just playing the sympathy card.]
Chase: [Magnus, you’ve only recently started indulging, be gentle. You don’t want to scare the little
darling away]
Everyone: (Hahaha. ]
Magnus (Everyone, get back to work!
He turned off his phone, noticing the girl in the bathroom still hadn’t come out. He leaned against the
bed, gazing at the bathroom door After what seemed like an eternity. Natalia finally come out
