As If I've Never Loved (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 96
The first evening since that dawn when Ansel had erased the unspoken boundary and approached her—Eloise made excuses of illness and hid herself in the attic to avoid facing him.
And last night, the second evening, there had been no conversation beyond a greeting that hardly felt like one.
Contrary to her worries, Ansel hadn’t brought up anything about promises or companionship.
In fact, he hadn’t spoken to her at all.
He merely instructed a maid to bring more soup after seeing Eloise barely finish hers, her mouth dry and stiff.
Though she should have considered it fortunate, something inside her remained tangled and uneasy. Had that dawn left him, too, with memories too heavy to revisit?
Truthfully, Eloise could easily guess that he wanted to say something.
She had felt his gaze, cautious and searching—but she had simply chosen to look away.
Though she knew it was impossible, the moment their eyes met, she feared being dragged back into that dark, suffocating dawn. That fear gripped her.
Just recalling that morning made her reason tremble as if uprooted entirely.
Her heart pounded so painfully it felt ready to burst through her ribcage, and her head spun with dizziness.
Her body burned with fever as though following a predetermined script, swaying precariously like a candle flame in the wind.
So she tried not to remember.
She locked away the surging emotions deep inside and bolted the door shut.
At least until those feelings broke through, she could stand calmly—so she could endure and protect the daily life she needed to carry on.
My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)
A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage
Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.
In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.
As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.
Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.
She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.
“Brother, come home with me.”
