The Imposter Bride

Chapter 256

v

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

Her 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 Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

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

She 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
