Eventually, the Female Lead Ran Away (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 137
In his study, Duke of Verrain pondered.
‘How did Margaret know?’
He recalled the words his butler had spoken to him upon his return home on the day Margaret collapsed.
‘She said she felt unwell after coming back from going out.’
Could Zen have summoned Margaret without understanding his place?
‘No matter how capable that brat might be, he lacks the authority to summon a duke’s daughter.’
Even if Margaret were ever so innocent and kind-hearted, she wouldn’t have readily accepted a bourgeois request. Thus, had Belus perhaps arranged the meeting?
‘Does that mean he knows everything?’
But it was strange. Belus did not welcome the duke’s illegitimate child.
How could he possibly be pleased when that child might one day take his position as Duke of Verrain?
‘Or… does he truly desire to break off his engagement with Margaret?’
Margaret loved Belus dearly. To his sheltered, delicate daughter, confined within this estate, Belus was her entire world.
If such a man abandoned Margaret, then Margaret would……
‘Why did I endure all that arrogance!’
It was solely for Margaret’s sake. Even the vast fortune of House of Marquess Delta was meant to secure Margaret’s life after his own death.

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.
Intro
As an enchantress, Su Heng possesses captivating eyes and charming beauty, easily manipulating the joys and sorrows of living beings at her fingertips.
But to enchant a god, making him taste the bitterness of love’s separation, long-lasting resentment, unattainable desires, and inability to let go…
Do you dare?
Su Heng assists a divine lord in his cultivation, aiming to make him experience all the sufferings of love, so that he can attain the Great Dao.
Only after being chased down from the heavens by the divine lord, confined and completely possessed by him, does she realize how successful she has been.
The once gentle and polite youth has transformed into someone she no longer recognizes.
