Eventually, the Female Lead Ran Away (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 120
Duke Verrain, whose influence had waned, and Margaret, who had no suitable marriage prospects—his relatives would once again begin discussing a new heir.
‘There’s no law allowing a daughter to inherit the family, is there?’
‘We don’t even need to consider a daughter. We must dethrone Duke Verrain immediately. How can we just stand by while he remains a threat to the family?’
Having lost even Delta, Duke Verrain could no longer suppress his relatives by force. Once the predator vanished, his kin would eagerly tear one another apart in their hunger for his position.
The Duke would spend the rest of his life in poverty, confined to a shabby country manor with his frail daughter.
Just as many nobles who failed to ride the tides of their time had done before. But would Duke Verrain alone suffer such a tragic fate? No. The ‘House of Duke Verrain’ would share the same doom.
“The Verrain Duke’s relatives are generally incompetent. Whoever takes the title will be intoxicated by it and drive the already disastrous finances of the dukedom straight into ruin. Yet I don’t understand why you specifically chose Countess Jabel’s son.”
“If the stupidest among them becomes duke, won’t it collapse even faster?”
No sooner had Zen finished speaking than Cedric waved his hand dismissively.
“Ah, what’s the real difference anyway?”
“Why do you dislike Countess Jabel’s son so much?”
Zen frowned as he asked.
Cedric nearly blurted out his true feelings without realizing—something like, ‘Wasn’t that seat originally yours? I’m only placing him there as your replacement, so I’d hate for some utterly hopeless fool to take it.’
Cedric knew this too: even if Zen took that seat, he wouldn’t become a proper Duke Verrain. Instead, he’d be the last duke who brought the house to ruin—a man history might record as utterly incapable.
Yet Zen would crumble with grace.

My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
