The Imposter Bride (Natalia and Magnus)

Chapter 340

Magnus couldn't help but feel a sense of amusement. Clearing his throat, he continued to lead James

towards the leather couch and casually invited William over, "William, care to join us?"

Shaking his head, William declined, "You guys go ahead, I've got guests to attend to. Enjoy

yourselves." With that, William, every bit the gentleman, walked away.

Once William was out of earshot, James murmured, "Is it just me, or is William a bit off his rocker?

We're going over to chat with his sister, and he tells us to enjoy ourselves. Is this his way of selling his

sister for some fat cash?"

Magnus promptly gave James a light knock on the head. "Shut it! Not everyone has a dirty mind like This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

you."

James couldn't help but retaliate, pointing to himself and questioning, "Me? A handsome, dashing,

suave, affluent man being slandered like this? It's an outrageous injustice! I might have a dirty mind,

but you have a dirty body!"

Keeping his voice low, James knew better than to push Magnus' buttons, especially when he was

already so wound up over Natalia.

Diana had already taken her seat on the plush couch in the corner, eagerly awaiting Magnus' arrival.

Seeing Magnus and James walking over, laughing and joking, her fondness for Magnus only increased.

He might have been a powerful man, but his ability to mingle with his subordinates won her over.

Unaware of Diana's internal monologue, Magnus led James over and practically pushed him to sit next

to Diana, before finally settling down himself.

Diana's heart pounded as Magnus took his seat, noticing how he had positioned James between them.

She couldn't help but think that Magnus was interested in her. Could he be trying to hide his feelings?

Suddenly, Diana found herself feeling a bit shy. She twirled her wine glass, pondering over what she

would do if Magnus were to ask her out.

"Miss Diana, I'm quite interested in your design sketches. Could you tell me more about them?"

Magnus cut straight to the chase, bypassing any small talk.

Diana's smile froze. She hadn't expected Magnus to be interested in her designs. Could this be his

unique way of flirting?

Inwardly, she frantically tried to remember anything about the designs - they weren't even hers. The

recluse designer had never shown up to any social gatherings, leaving Diana to take the fall for her.

Those design drafts were not designed by Diana, but what William said before was not wrong. She

indeed studied design for a while, but she didn't have the talent and inspiration later, so she moved to

the sales area and usually responsible for attracting potential clients for her brother William.

Magnus' question was too abrupt, and Diana took a long time to recall the design drafts she had seen.

To be honest, when she saw those drafts at that time, she foresaw that the clothes made according to

these designs would definitely sell well with her many years of sales ability.

What a close call! If she were a spoiled rich second generation, she would have made a fool of herself

in front of the man she adored.

After thinking for a while in her heart, Diana pretended to smile modestly and said, "Actually, there is

nothing surprising about these drafts. They just looked trendy, and it was beyond my expectation that

they are loved so insanely by everyone."

Magnus' eyes narrowed slightly and continued to ask, "So, what prompted you to use magnolia as a

design inspiration?"

Diana thought carefully for a while, "Oh, all these inspirations come from the latest fashion clothes.

When I see the finished products made by my peers, I also have different ideas in my heart. Then, you

know, inspiration, it often comes and goes in a flash, and I just happened to catch it. As for the

magnolia, it should symbolize pure love!"

Magnus’ face suddenly darkened. Diana was clearly talking nonsense. He had studied each of those

design drafts carefully. Getting the inspiration from the latest trendy clothe? It was obviously a complete

nonsense! The reason why those clothes can lead the trend was entirely because the designer

diverged and integrated elements of her own into it.

Not only that, these clothes with were generous in color, which could blend into any beautiful scenery

without being obtrusive. This kind of design best demonstrated a designer's skill. Without a peaceful

mind, it would be impossible to create such dazzling works.

As for the magnolia, it's his wife's favorite flower. It didn’t symbolize pure love, but steadfast love.

Magnus was sure at this time that Diana was a fraud. He signaled to James with his eyes, implying him

to get more out of Diana.

Although James was not very interested in those design drafts, he remembered that Magnus once said

that those works were all marked with white magnolia, and asked cunningly, "Miss Diana, I wonder

what kind of flower do you usually like?"

Without hesitation, Diana said, "It might sound cliché, but I've always loved the passion of red roses."

Internally, James pitied Diana. She was clearly a fraud and soon she would have to face Magnus'

wrath.

Magnus' gaze hardened. He remained silent, studying Diana as if trying to uncover a hidden secret. He

wanted to see the real designer, Natalia, the woman he loved.

Diana felt somewhat unsettled under his intense gaze, and asked rather nervously, "Mr. Andersen, is

there something wrong that I've done?"

Magnus softened his piercing look and smiled kindly. "Not at all, Miss Diana. I'm quite fond of your

work. Please do let me know as soon as you have a new piece. I'd love to appreciate it."

Diana managed a stiff smile. She was here hoping for a bit of flirtation, not to discuss design drafts. Mr.

Andersen's tastes were certainly unique. Always a design draft this, a design draft that! Couldn't he be

more like James, asking about her hobbies? Or he could suggest a date and invite her to go skiing,

swimming, or dining at a fancy steakhouse?
