Don't Pick That Flower (2 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 87
Carlos’s black carriage stood out wherever it went, and that was no different in Maybell.
Men and women, young and old alike, all stared at the black carriage—then widened their eyes upon seeing the Esper family crest engraved upon it.
At present, there was only one person who could ride in a carriage bearing the Esper family crest: Duke Esper himself.
In other words, Carlos was inside.
There were many rumors about Carlos, but one of them was that he rarely, if ever, left the Esper Territory.
He didn’t even show up for the Founding Day celebrations or the Emperor’s birthday—enough said.
Yet here Carlos was, appearing in Maybell, far from the Esper Territory, leaving everyone both astonished and puzzled.
“Well, maybe he came for a hot spring bath now that the weather’s turned cold.”
Maybell was famous not only for its beautiful sea but also for its hot springs, drawing many visitors even in winter.
“It’s commonly said that as people age, they crave soaking in warm water. Maybe Duke Esper is no different?”
“Is Duke Esper already that old? How old is he, anyway?”
“Hmm… I wonder? How old could he be?”
Usually, nobles from prominent families had their names constantly splashed across newspapers and gossip columns from birth, their private lives laid bare for all to see.
But Carlos was an exception.
Everything about him—his birthdate, who his mother was, how many women he’d dated, what he excelled at—was shrouded in mystery.
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
