How To Get Revenge On My Sister Who Stole My Husband (16 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 48
“Lies! There’s no way the Duke would seriously court you, sister! What are you scheming with him? Could it be that he’s pretending just to extract our family’s secrets from you?! If not, why would the Duke give something this precious to someone like you, who’s beneath me!”
“Danae! Calm down!”
“Viscountess Danae Uston, what kind of absurd nonsense are you spouting!”
“Let go of that, Viscount!”
I shouted back at her, pushing her away. Leonard also grabbed Danae by the shoulders, pulling her away from me and yelling at her. The nobles murmured as they watched Danae, who had lost all composure and was throwing a tantrum.
“What’s all this commotion about?”
At that moment, the grand doors of the banquet hall swung open, and Empress Maria entered, accompanied by members of the imperial family, Prince Justin, and Marquis Uston. At the Empress’s stern voice, Danae instantly froze in place and hastily stepped back. The Empress cast a cold glance at Marquis Uston and spoke sarcastically.
“How spirited your daughter is, even at an event like this! It’s fine to raise her lively and healthy, but shouldn’t you also teach her to observe proper etiquette in such settings?”
“I deeply apologize, Your Majesty. It is entirely my fault for failing to raise her properly.”
The Marquis bowed his head humbly, as if he were a criminal. The Empress coolly averted her gaze from him, then turned to the assembled nobles with a benevolent expression.
“I am truly pleased to see so many of you gathered here for the ball in honor of Princess Ella and Prince Justin. Now, before everyone present, these two—the guests of honor—shall share their first dance. As Empress and witness to their sacred betrothal, I shall publicly declare their engagement to the world.”
“Congratulations on Princess Ella’s engagement, Your Majesty!”
“We offer our deepest congratulations, Your Imperial Majesty!”
The nobles simultaneously bowed and offered their felicitations. The Empress nodded gratefully, her face clearly delighted, and then summoned the chamberlain to her side with an order.
“Chamberlain, instruct the musicians to play a waltz.”

The Male lead Always Seduces Her with His Beauty (Matriarchy)
Xin Jiao Zhou is the leader of the world’s premier sect. She has just experienced betrayal from all sides, was poisoned in an assassination attempt, and faced death squad attacks while the poison was taking effect. After finally clearing out the scum from her sect, she was drugged again while trying to detoxify.
After waking up from a night of unconsciousness, she gained a “beautiful and kind-hearted” husband.
Xin Jiao Zhou: “???”
He fell ill.
She came to see him, bringing breakfast.
As she put down the breakfast and was about to leave, his hand slipped while holding the spoon. “Clank!”
She turned around upon hearing the noise.
He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”
“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.
He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”
Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.
After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.
Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.
A certain someone when disciplining subordinates behind the scenes: “If they don’t obey, just kill them.”
What’s that? She might already have someone she cares about in her heart? A certain someone: Find out who it is, kill them, and then there won’t be anyone.
What? She met a man by the riverside? What? That man even hurt her? A certain someone: Whichever hand hurt her, chop off his entire arm.
