At the End of Ruin, There You Are (56 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 71
My vision was blurry. Everything was dark and indistinct, and I wanted desperately to see more clearly and sharply.
Caella strained her eyes with all her might. Her body felt as heavy and limp as waterlogged fabric, utterly drained of strength, yet she still needed to keep her gaze steady. As she persisted in keeping her eyes open, the darkness gradually sharpened into focus.
The familiar canopy of the Grand Duke’s four-poster bed, the drawn drapes, the faint glow from the slightly lit fireplace, and the dry scent of aged wood.
Caella stared blankly at the scene before her, her mind empty. At the edge of that sight sat a man, fixedly watching her beside the bed.
‘Ah, again.’
He appeared once more. Caella closed her barely open eyes. She shut them tightly, then opened them again.
The fireplace’s light cast shadows across his handsome face, while pale dawn light filtered through the window on the opposite side, competing with the firelight to claim half his face.
His clear violet eyes—untouched by any hint of black—stared at her without blinking.
Even after closing and reopening her eyes, he remained. The man who had left the deepest mark on her entire life sat there, like a phantom.
“Caella.”
He rarely used her name, yet now he called it so readily—her name, not a title—tenderly and affectionately.
“Can you hear my voice?”
His cautious, almost whispering voice asked gently. Why was he being so careful? She was just Caella—someone undeserving of such delicate treatment, someone who meant absolutely nothing to him.
“Can you see me? Do you recognize who I am?”
How could she not? Caella was puzzled that he even asked such a question.
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.”

“Just kill me, Your Grace.”
Poor thing. He’s been selfishly and desperately trying to keep you by his side, he’s not going to let go now, no matter how much you wish he would.
“There are many ways. I can suggest several methods that inflict maximum sufferi
Fillon is the only remorseful hero who deserves to be called a regretful and even offered his life directly to her
He couldn’t delay his apology any longer; as a guilty party, he had no right to.
Yes apologizing is the right thing to do, which you should have done sooner and then left her alone.
