Don't Obsess Over A Married Woman (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 56
But even though the crime had been exposed, Viscount Baden was shamelessly brazen.
〈I didn’t steal anything—I was merely holding onto it temporarily! Yet here you are, treating me like a thief after receiving favors from my father?〉
There was absolutely insufficient evidence to press the matter further.
Moreover, Viscount Baden refused to return the papers, claiming Jepheth had offended his sensibilities.
In truth, those papers had already been submitted to the Emperor and thus couldn’t be returned, but Jepheth had no way of knowing that.
In any case, to retrieve his papers, Jepheth spent a long time trying to persuade Viscount Baden.
Wilhelm Baden eventually relented—but imposed one condition.
〈I have a dim-witted nephew, the son of my late brother, who, due to constant abuse from my stepmother, never received proper heir training until he turned fifteen. Raise his academic level enough so he can at least enter the Academy. If he reaches that standard, I’ll return your papers immediately.〉
Of course, this was merely a ploy by Viscount Baden to buy time to secure the final report.
He never truly believed the Viscount Dieren—whom he assumed to be as foolish as his late father—could ever reach the Academy’s admission standard.
If only he could keep Jepheth occupied for three years and steal the papers in the meantime…
‘Then I can retain my position as Chairman of the Privy Council!’
And only then could he maintain his viscountcy.
In reality, the viscountcy had been granted to Baden solely because Wilhelm York Baden had become Chairman of the Privy Council.
Before that, the Badens were merely a cadet branch and vassal house of Dieren.
When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did
“How dare you!”
“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?
“I will never accept that.”
“I will never let you return to him.”
“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”
“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”
“I will never let you escape me!”
This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!
At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.
Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.
The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.
Synopsis:
Want to see how a green tea bitch male lead falls in love with the female lead?
Want to see how he flirtatiously pursues the female lead?
Want to see how he gets slapped in the face repeatedly?
The male lead is a green tea bitch, a poisonous lotus, jealous, ruthless, unscrupulous, with a venomous heart, and he’s also a delusional maniac.
The female lead is righteous, positive energy-filled, kind, a holy mother.
Let’s see how two people with extreme personalities come together~
