Chapter 118

But who would’ve thought that Magnus, the newly dubbed national heartthrob, despite his wheelchair–

bound condition, would find himself cuckolded?

This news was only a couple of hours old but had already caused an uproar back home. Countless people rapidly shared and commented, the topic blazing hotter by the minute.

Lucius, who had no idea his photo with Kendra would make it to the internet, was taken aback. After coming to his senses, he quickly arranged a press conference to set the record straight. In front of everyone, he made it clear there was nothing going on between him and Kendra. He admitted they used to date, but for his brother, he stepped aside. From the moment Kendra became Magnus‘ wife, he had not seen her Yet, pictures of him and Kendra looking intimate were circulating all over town As everyone was puzzled over Lucius blatant denial, a user named Kendra posted an audio recording on a verified website. In the recording. Lucius admitted to laundering money within the company and funneling a hefty portion of Andersen Corporation’s funds into his personal account. He even boasted that Magnus position as CEO wouldn’t last, as he would be taking over soon.

The fluctuating tone and unsettling words shocked all onlookers once more In no time, various media outlets were reporting on the matter Based on the previous reports and this audio recording, countless versions of the story were created.

In the end, the most credible version revolved around Kendra, the shameless woman, who married Magnus, the nation’s beloved wheelchair–bound heartthrob. Unsatisfied, she rekindled her relationship with Magnus brother, Lucius However, Lucius played her, and the deceitful couple began a love–hate relationship. Therefore, Kendra must have made the recording as leverage against Lucius All this chaos started at noon and extended into the night. The controversy did not subside as time went on, instead, it grew more intense Morgan, who was aware of the whole ordeal, was furious. He clutched his heart. The whole of Melfort was buzzing with the Andersen family’s scandal He ordered his bodyguards to bring Magnus and Lucius back to the Andersen Family Estate immediately, intending to get to the bottom of the matter Meanwhile, Anthony and Lillian were also outraged. However, the moment Lucius and Magnus stepped through the gates of the Andersen Family Estate. Lillian kept her eyes on Lucius, wanting to scold him but was restrained by Morgan’s booming voice.

“Lucius explain yourself! He demanded, shaking with anger, newspapers in hand.

He threw the papers at Lucius face!

Regardless of Kendra and Lucius past, Kendra was now Magnus‘ wife, and that was a fact. Even if Magnus didn’t want her, it was his business. Lucius should have cut ties with Kendra completely. Now, their scandal was humiliating the entire Andersen family!

He feared that he would be pointed at and ridiculed, accused of failing to teach his family morals, leading to this disgraceful affair Furthermore, Lucius had been meddling with the company and even attempted to frame Magnus. He had already received numerous complaints from shareholders demanding action.

He was furious at Lucius. If he weren’t family, he would’ve wished him dead a thousand times over.

Despite forgiving Lucius over and over again, this was the result he got After Morgans rant, a guilty Lucius glared at Magnus sitting in his wheelchair before saying, “Grandfather, someone must be framing me. You know would never do such a thing! Someone must be framing me Grandfather, leave this to me. I will get to the bottom of it He was certain that Magnus was behind this. First, he sent him to the Middle East, and now this scandal Regret filled him for not eliminating the problen when he had the chance His eyes filled with murderous intent when he thought of Kendra and how she had played him After Lucius explanation, Lillian quickly stepped in We shouldn’t accuse Lucius without evidence. Who knows, someone might be setting hum up Kendra Ive never liked her Maybe someone manipulated Kendra to seduce Lucius and took those photos.

Turning to Magnus, she continued. “You must have known about this, right Magnus? Kendra is your wife, after all. Could you have In any case, Lillian just couldn’t believe that her sharp witted son, Lucius, could be so careless as to be captured in such a compromising photo lay the media. And even if such a picture was taken so what?

With the influence of the Andersen family, who would dare to distribute such a photo without the consent? Therefore, Lillian was certain that Magnus was behind this scandal What puzzled them was now that Magnus already had the position of CEO why would he still plot against his own brother?

After his misfortune nine years ago. Morgan had already handed him a substantial share of the Andersen Corporation He should have spent his life peacefully on Sapphire island and enjoy the good the Why would he want to compete with Luacus for the position of CRO of Andersen Corporation? Now that things had gone his way he still couldn’t let Lucius go that was why they’d never been fond of the son since he was a child “Enough” However, after hearing Lillians words. Morgan, whose face was growing increasingh grim, suddenly shouted, interrupting her in a particularly furious roar, he barked. “You’ve been protecting him since he was a child, and now that he’s done something we tiha, you’re stiä defending him! Do you think this voice could be fake? Can’t you recognize that is this bride’s voice?”
