As If I've Never Loved (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 95
“The slaughterhouse workers gave me the details. About that steward, Mr. Guy Lylance….”
Eloise had just received an uncomfortable truth from Harry.
“He’s still unmarried, though he’s been engaged several times—but all those engagements were broken off due to his womanizing. He’s merely a minor provincial noble whose family business became highly successful, and now he’s aiming to enter the capital. It seems the Hungerford steward position was part of that plan. I heard he invested a large sum into expanding the factory….”
It was undeniably devastating news.
If he secured the steward position by investing in the factory, he likely held far more influence than an ordinary steward would.
Moreover, for such a shameless man to have enjoyed such extraordinary fortune from his family’s successful business seemed utterly undeserved.
Thinking of her father, who had suffered such a painful failure, only deepened her bitter sense of despair.
On this day, burdened by such bitterness, the three women—except for Eloise—were each summoned one by one to the steward’s office.
Alicia, who had returned first from her meeting with the steward, wore a complicated expression as she spoke about her last working day.
“He asked if I’d prefer to keep working until the next payday, since it’s only a few days away—but then said it wouldn’t matter if I quit right away today.”
At this, Melanie immediately exploded in frustration.
“How could it not matter? Won’t they need to hire a replacement? It’s barely been any time since the new supply contract was signed—does he plan to suddenly cut our chicken delivery quotas?”
“Don’t worry too much. He said he’d post a hiring notice today, so people should start coming by tomorrow. I also told him I’d stay on for three more days, and the factory manager won’t just stand by if deliveries are disrupted.”
Eloise, who felt goosebumps rise at the mere thought of Mr. Lylance, decided to say nothing at all.
She resolved to focus solely on the day’s workload and hide her inner turmoil.
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.”
