Don't Obsess Over A Married Woman (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 123
‘Ah, so that’s why…’
Only then did I understand why Sir Joseph had been so displeased about my meeting with Dorothea.
Yet, even though it made sense, the nausea churning deep inside me wouldn’t subside.
My mind went utterly blank.
I couldn’t quickly calculate what thoughts I should form or what actions I ought to take.
Still, there was one thing I was certain of.
As long as Sir Joseph and I were in an alliance, I had to stand on his side.
Therefore, there was only one thing to do right now: immediately sever the connection between those two…
“Duchess.”
…?
At that moment, Sir Joseph’s quiet voice called out to me.
However, the way he addressed me felt slightly off. “Duchess”? Wasn’t that unnecessarily formal?
“May I have a brief word with that woman?”
“Ah…”
An inexplicably heavy discomfort settled in my stomach—but this feeling was entirely different from my earlier mistake.
The Male lead Always Seduces Her with His Beauty (Matriarchy)
Xin Jiao Zhou is the leader of the world’s premier sect. She has just experienced betrayal from all sides, was poisoned in an assassination attempt, and faced death squad attacks while the poison was taking effect. After finally clearing out the scum from her sect, she was drugged again while trying to detoxify.
After waking up from a night of unconsciousness, she gained a “beautiful and kind-hearted” husband.
Xin Jiao Zhou: “???”
He fell ill.
She came to see him, bringing breakfast.
As she put down the breakfast and was about to leave, his hand slipped while holding the spoon. “Clank!”
She turned around upon hearing the noise.
He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”
“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.
He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”
Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.
After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.
Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.
A certain someone when disciplining subordinates behind the scenes: “If they don’t obey, just kill them.”
What’s that? She might already have someone she cares about in her heart? A certain someone: Find out who it is, kill them, and then there won’t be anyone.
What? She met a man by the riverside? What? That man even hurt her? A certain someone: Whichever hand hurt her, chop off his entire arm.
Love at first sight without realizing it, gradually falling in love, slowly getting closer…
Family and national grudges, schemes and desires, good and evil, crime and punishment, she and he face the future together, seeking justice with passion!
A naturally dark female lead who could accidentally destroy the world but is actually an honest person VS a weak, pitiful, and helpless but skilled fighter, beautiful white-cut black male lead
