As If I've Never Loved (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 20
Feeling embarrassed at having disturbed the lady’s work, Eloise listlessly fiddled with her hands and headed toward the kitchen behind the stairs.
Yet immediately afterward, Eloise’s smooth, glossy forehead crumpled instantly.
“…Wait. Is this supposed to be a meal?”
It was already disheartening enough to have to eat alone, but on the table lay only a dried-up loaf of bread, a single apple, some cold black tea, and a small amount of milk.
Of course, she hadn’t expected anyone to match the culinary skill of Chef Mitchell, who had always prepared meals for the family.
But even so, wasn’t this far too meager?
‘They did say not to expect a grand meal, but this is just…’
After a brief hesitation, Eloise slid out a chair and sat down.
There was nothing to be done. She had no luxury to complain.
If she’d wanted a warm, lovingly prepared breakfast, she shouldn’t have left home in the first place.
She should be grateful that, despite the dust, she’d slept in a soft bed and that a meal—however modest—had been prepared for her at all.
After all, this was the capital of a kingdom where she knew no one and where kindness was nowhere to be found.
‘If I’d been unlucky, I might not have found shelter until dawn. In that case, I’d be shivering right now with an empty stomach.’
Thinking this way, the food before her didn’t seem quite so bad after all.
Though it still felt lonely without her mother’s pre-meal prayer, Eloise quietly clasped her hands without showing it.

My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
