The Imposter Bride

Chapter 264

Kyler nodded repeatedly following the doctor towards the exit. “Thank you, doctor. Let me walk you out.”

Unsuspecting the doctor walked ahead towards the front door. As they neared the entrance, Kyler grabbed a sledgehammer he’d hidden behind the door and swung it with all his might at the back of the doctor’s head

Crack! Thud

The doctor hit the floor with a dull thud Kyler wiped the bloody sledgehammer on his pants, muttering, “Only the dead can keep secrets. It’s not my fault. You just had bad

Addison, who had covered Kendra’s eyes, reproached Kyler “Are you out of your mind? Why do this in front of our daughter? And now the house is a bloody mess, disgusting Clean this up right now!

Kyler didn’t respond but dragged the doctor’s body towards the basement

Meanwhile, in Melfort, Natalia was finally settling in.

It was the town shed grown up in, and once she’d gotten past her initial unease, she managed to relax a bit, especially after learning that Morgan wouldn’t bother her

anymore.

After all, Morgan was Magnus grandfather, and Natalia knew that Morgan had never liked her. She didn’t expect to gain Morgan’s approval, she just hoped he wouldn’t make things difficult for her

However, it seemed that over the years, Morgan had clearly stopped targeting her. Whether it’s because Morgan had compromised with Magnus or simply because he had grown old and wanted to enjoy his family this outcome was exactly what Natalia desired

On her third day in Melfort, Natalia packed a small gift basket to visit her old friend, Lexi. It was a day when Magnus was away at work, and Natalia was glad for the rare moment of peace

Since leaving that note, Lexi seemed to have disappeared completely. How iresponsible Natalia would give Lexi a piece of her mind when she met her

As she prepared to leave a small voice stopped her “Mommy, where are you going?”

Natalia looked down at little Jonas and answered gently. “Oh, I’m going to visit an old friend, sweetie. I’ll be back soon”

Jonas looked up at her with hopeful eyes “Can I come too, Mommy? I promise I’ll be good”

Natalia thought for a moment, then nodded “Sure, honey I think Auntie Lex would be happy to see you”

As they drove towards Lex’s house in the convertible Magnus had gifted her Natalia failed to notice the pair of eyes watching them from a distance

As she drove. Natalia couldn’t shake off the feeling that they were being followed Jonas, wise beyond his years, confirmed her suspicions. “Mommy, there’s been a car following us since we left the house

Natalia’s heart pounded as she glanced in the rearview mirror and saw a red sports car failing them closely

“Maybe they’re just passing through? She suggested, more to comfort herself than Jonas

But Jonas was certain No. mommy This car has been following us for a while. Im sure of it

Natalia felt a wave of panic wash over her She was unsure of what to do if the knew leaving the house would be this dangerous, she wouldn’t have brought Jonas along Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

“What do we do, Jonas? What do we do? She asked, her voice trembling with fear

As she slowed down the car behind them sped up, threatening to overtake them.

“Mommy, you can’t slow down if they get in front of us, they’ll force us to stop. That’s bad,” Jonas warned.

“Okay okay I’ll speed up Natalia replied, trying to calm herself as she stepped on the accelerator

Their car sped away leaving the red car a little behind But the driver of the red car wasn’t giving up and sped up to catch them.

The two cars raced down the deserted highway, each trying to outpace the other

“Oh God, Jonas, they’re catching up What do we do? Natalia asked, her voice filled with panic.

She was driving a car shed sneaked out with, and now they were being chased She was completely out of her depth.

“Don’t worry, Mom, we’ll shake her off! Jonas encouraged Natalia. Tve already sent a text to Dad. I’m sure he’ll be here soon to help us out.”

Upon hearing Jonas words Natalia felt as if her brain was failing her Of course, why hadn’t she thought to alert Magnus?

Perhaps it was the knowledge that Magnus was coming to their rescue, but Natalia felt a sudden calm descend upon her. Her earlier panic vanished without a trace

She glanced in the rearview mirror, taking a closer look at the car behind them. To her surprise, she recognized it

God wasn’t this the car that Addison used to drive?

Could it be

Natalia shivered, not daring to complete the thought
