Chapter 256
Lexi silently rejoiced for Natalia because she knew that Natalia was still hung up on Magnus
“You know when we were both still just little kids. Nat promised she’d marry me. I waited for her for
over two decades, only to stand helplessly by as she left with Magnus. “Magnus, that bastard, hurt her
so badly once and all I could do was watch I couldnt even give him a piece of my mind
“Oh, how I wish I hadn’t gotten drunk that night Then, I couldve stopped Nat from leaving with
confidence
“But now what is this? What’s the point of all this? I messed up how can I face Buttercup now? She just
left with that jerk. I know what Magnus is like Hell definitely take advantage of her
“Oh, I regret it so much if I could turn back time, I wish I hadn’t gotten drunk that night Nat please
forgive me. I didn’t do it on purpose love you, don’t leave
Callum mumbled to himself before slumping onto the bed, sound asleep
Lexi sat quietly at the foot of the bed, listening to Calum’s worth feeling a pang of sympathy Another
hopeless romantic, yet, he was to blame for his own misery if he hacht been so brutal, maybe he
could’ve competed with Magnus.
Natalia left, and he drowned his sorrows in alcohol. But what about her? She was still trapped in this
cager
Les looked at the slightly ajar door, and a surge of determination rose in her heart. She needed to get
out, to escape this cage
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHer heart pounded with the desire for freedom as she climbed out of bed, feeling a surge of strength.
She gingerly kicked Callum’s body, and when he didn’t mact, she knew he was finally asleep
Time was of the essence. She had to seize this rare opportunity
Lew held her breath stealthely got out of the bed, quickly moved to the door, and gently pulled it Sum
enough, it wasn’t locked. Her heart filled with joy as she pushed the door open and stepped out
Outside the room she was dumbfounded. The comdor was lavish and opulent, with countless rooms
under the ornate chandeliers. When was the eat?
Moreover, all the doors looked the same, so how was she supposed to leave?
She couldn’t stay here, or she might never get out. Lexi steeled herself and cautiously moved forward
The comidor was long and filled with exquisite oil paintings Lexi, being somewhat of an art enthusiast,
knew that these paintings were at least three to four centuries old and worth a fortune
if it were any other day she would have definitely taken pictures of these precious paintings. But now,
all she could think about was escaping. She needed to move faster to leave this nightmare before
anyone noticed her
But, after passing more than a dozen moms, she still couldn’t find the ext. Even looking back, she
couldn’t remember which mom she had come out of
Suddenly, she heard footsteps approaching from not too far away Lead instinctively pressed herself
against the wall and moved forward. She couldn’t be found, or she’d be locked up again
The footsteps got closer and Lexi realized that if she had moved faster earlier, the exit would have
been just a bit further
But now, where could she hide?
Suddenly, the felt the door behind her move. It was unlocked. Lexi barely suppressed her elation and
quietly slipped into the room. As she did the footsteps reached the door and she could hear two people
conversing in English
From what Lex could make out, it seemed like a maid was saying something about the master being
drunk. So, it was probably one of the mansion’s maids
That was close! Luckily, she had managed to hide in this room it time, or she would surely have been
caught again. Lex let out a sigh of relief, unconsciously sticking out her tongue in a cheeky gesture
before daring to take a look around the room.
Then, she was taken aback by what she saw
The room was a luxurious, dreamlike princess mom, everything was pink. The cozy and dreamy pink
was every girl’s favorite color because it was the color of a princess
The rooms windows were covered in pink lace curtains with fresh floral prints. On the wide princess
bed a pink blanket was neatly folded, and it was piled with various cute plush toys
No, not just on the bed the windowsill, the corners of the room, and even behind the door, were
occupied by various toys
This place was like a princess‘ bedroom.
Lex couldn’t help but be amazed, she hadnt expected Callum to have such a fascinating hobby
Every girl had a princess dream, but if a burly man like Callum also had such a dream, it seemed a bit
strange. Not only was there no sense of beauty, but it gave people a
When Lex saw the pink princess outfits hanging in the wardrobe by the window, she felt a chill down
her spine.
Alright, a big man with a cross–dressing fetish? She couldn’t help but admire hund
Le didn’t want to stay in this room for another second, although she admitted that the room filled with
dreamy elements was indeed beautiful. When she imagined Calluma large figure living in it, she lost all
interest
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe cautiously pushed the door open again, quickly scanned both sides of the hallway, saw no one,
and hurried out of the room
Not fur from the corner was the eat!
Lex rushed towards the corner but just as she was about to dash around it, she heard a voice behind
her “Where are you going?”
Lex turned around in panic, only to find a maid pointing at her and shouting. At this moment, every
second counted, she didn’t even check what was in front of her, she just
ran towards Ua comar
Behind her there were chaotic footsteps. The people causing these sounds were the servants of the
mansion, and their aim was to mecapture Lexi
Lexi knew this Letter than anyone. So, even though she hadeit eaten all day she kept running forward.
Freedom we just ahead. She had to keep going
However, things didnt go na smoothly as Lex had hoped. She could no longer keep running after
running past more than a duzen xións. She found out, NO there was no war aleat only a realistic
painting of a courtyard
smoking at the vivid flowers and plants in the painting Lexi atmost burst into tears. Enough was
enought Who on earth had brought in such a large piece of arta
