Queen Adelaide was in a foul mood.

The contents of the letter sent by the Kingdom of Carulo infuriated her. It seemed that the king had taken action after somehow discovering the letter she had sent.

“[Let’s consider this incident as if it never happened. Emily is very angry, and I’m in trouble because of it. It seems like she doesn’t suspect you’re behind it, so don’t worry.

Adelaide, do not pull such a stunt again. I’m overlooking it this time, but it’s the last.

If anyone from the Kingdom of Carulo gets hurt again, I won’t stand by idly. I’ll hold you accountable.]”

Adelaide tore the letter and threw it into the fireplace. Her insides were boiling with rage. She bit her teeth tightly and gulped down her wine.

“Jane.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“Find out who leaked it.”

“I’ve already sent someone to do just that. Don’t worry. Traitors can’t stay by your side, Your Majesty.”

Jane’s words made Adelaide nod and slump on the couch. At least the queen’s palace was quiet, sparing her from a worse headache.

“What about Carl?”

“Prince Carl has finished his sword training and is resting.”

“And him?”

“He hasn’t left the detached palace at all.”

Adelaide covered her eyes with her hand. The direction of events was unexpected. She was frustrated that she didn’t get the compensation she desired for her cousin’s death.

‘I have no face to show.’

Though she had killed her cousin with her own hands, the failure to gain what she wanted from the king had left a bitter taste. If she could go back, she wouldn’t have let things end so vainly.

Even if she could go back, she would have chosen the same path. She had already missed one opportunity and wasn’t planning to miss another. If left alone, Carl would have been a hindrance. The king’s love was directed towards his wife, and he was keen on Sword Master Cheston.

She knew the king would wait and wait for Carl to make a mistake, eventually handing her position over to that woman’s hands.

“It seems I can’t just watch any longer. Perhaps after the debutante ball, the royal banquet would be a suitable time. What do you think?”

“The time when everyone’s distracted would be the best. I will proceed according to the day you’ve decided, Your Majesty.”

“Good, don’t tell Carl either. It’s troublesome if he shows it on his face.”

“But… is that alright?”

Jane looked anxious. The queen burst out laughing. It seemed Jane was worried about Carl potentially getting killed in the process.

“Afraid I might blame you for a mistake?”

“How could that be? I’m just worried you might fall into despair, Your Majesty.”

“Oh, Jane. It’s because you’re by my side that I can smile. My plan is perfect, so don’t worry. There won’t be any trouble with Carl.”

“In that case, I’ll proceed without worries.”

Adelaide nodded. If her son had been a bit more exceptional, a Sword Master with aura, she wouldn’t have had to resort to such measures. Her son’s inadequacy had made her even more ruthless. The young girl who once yearned for the king’s love was no more.

She now lived only to protect her rightful place and authority. No one could point fingers at her.

Especially those who didn’t understand what it was like to live with a man who always looked at another woman.

Whitney was surprised to receive the invitation.

“I never thought he would invite me.”

In her previous life, he had shown no interest in her. Instead, he had succumbed to her sister’s seduction, and they had their secret meetings.

Whether Carl believed that Melisa saved him was still a mystery. However, from his words and actions towards her, Carl was not a man who would be content with Melisa.
Whitney pondered if Melisa, too, might have been merely used and met a miserable death like her. The important thing was that Whitney died at the hands of her sister and Carl, and she had no interest in what happened afterward.

“I’ll get ready to go to the palace.”

“Actually, I won’t go today. I’m planning to send a reply. I’m asking if I can bring my sister along.”

“…Melisa?”

“If I go alone, it might lead to misunderstandings. Since my sister also wanted to go, it would be easier for me if I take her once, and the story will spread among others.”

This would naturally draw attention to Whitney in the social circle. The rumor that she was summoned to the palace and had a private meeting with Carl would make everyone eager to extract information from her.

[Whitney Orleans, I want to keep the promise I made to you.

If you refuse my invitation, I’ll be heartbroken. I hope to have the opportunity to serve you fragrant tea.

Wouldn’t sharing a conversation in a beautiful garden make a pleasant memory?

I’ll await your reply.]

A pleasant memory, indeed. Whitney was already full of unpleasant memories. She would never forget Carl’s sweet voice that had deceived her, nor the look in his eyes that perfectly hid his emotions, making it seem like he was in love.

Ink-stained, Whitney penned her reply.

When the male lead is punished by carrying the female lead’s child and having periods like a woman

“I’ve given birth to two children for you, yet you still think about him.

Was I nothing but his substitute to you from beginning to end?”

Synopsis:

Meng Huan, a scumbag who has dated countless girlfriends,  transmigrates to a female-dominated country.

Day 1: Whether it’s female dominance or not doesn’t matter. The beauties here are passionate and amorous. Isn’t it easier to date them than in modern times?

Day 2: After a night, Meng Huan discovers the differences in the female-dominated world. Men here actually have chastity locks and menstrual cycles. This hinders his ability to perform, damn it!

Day 3: What’s wrong with sleeping around? I don’t want you to marry me. I’m meant to be a playboy. I don’t care about male virtues… What? You want to drown me in a pig cage? Marry, I’ll marry!

Day N: Meng Huan inexplicably vomits and receives the shocking news of his life… He’s pregnant.
