Even if Your Regret Holds Me Back (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 162
Eugene stopped where the moonlight, passing through the window, pierced the room. Natasha could finally make out his expression.
He was genuinely angry.
Natasha hastily stammered out an excuse.
“I’m truly sorry for not attending the trial. But I lost consciousness on my way to the courtroom, so there was nothing I could do.”
“That’s a plausible excuse.”
“No, Your Grace, it’s the truth. Please understand me… Cough, cough!”
As she rasped out a rough cough, Natasha bit down hard inside her mouth. She crushed the mucous membrane between her teeth, squeezed out blood, and spat it out. Even in the darkness, the ivory-colored hem of her dress clearly showed the fresh crimson stain.
Trembling her eyelashes and lifting her head, she saw Eugene struggling to suppress his anger. Natasha spat out another mouthful of blood.
Reluctantly sighing, Eugene left after telling her he’d send the attending physician and that she should rest for now.

The day after the trial ended, Helena received a letter from the imperial palace.
From the moment she saw the seal stamped on the envelope, her heart sank—and reading its contents only made it sink further.
It was an invitation to the Crown Prince’s birthday gala. A postscript added that he wished to speak with her briefly before the banquet began.
After persistent urging from Odyssey and Sakin, Helena finished dressing and headed toward the imperial palace.
The location specified in the invitation was a small garden situated behind the main palace. Despite the cold weather, the harmonious arrangement of blooming flowers and trees made the garden beautiful.
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.
