I Became The Ex-Wife Of A Regretful Male Lead (2 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 23
“The dog over there barks every time it sees me. If you just leave a growling beast alone, it’ll only end up biting you, won’t it? Might as well growl back together.”
To Joshua’s sighing question, Chelsea replied calmly.
“You really are something, sister.”
“Joshua, if you ever feel like the throne, go ahead and growl anytime. This older sister is fully prepared to bite back fairly—even if you are my full-blooded younger brother.”
“Thank goodness, then. I have no interest in the throne whatsoever.”
“Oh dear. What a pity.”
Joshua sulkily shook his head at Chelsea’s bright smile and leaned back against the chair.
The atmosphere at home felt like walking on thin ice every day, and he couldn’t help but sigh deeply.
‘It was wise of me to give up the throne early.’
Just imagining himself jumping into that battlefield, where everyone was busy tearing each other apart, gave him a headache.
“By the way, Joshua. Are you all set to head north?”
“What exactly do I need to prepare? Whatever I prepare, you’ll just do as you please anyway, sister.”
“My, my. Our little brother is so clever.”
With that, Chelsea was the next to leave the room.
Left alone, Joshua closed his eyes tightly in the now-empty dining hall.
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.
Love at first sight without realizing it, gradually falling in love, slowly getting closer…
Family and national grudges, schemes and desires, good and evil, crime and punishment, she and he face the future together, seeking justice with passion!

‘If I go out with me, people will be scared, and Flora will feel uncomfortable t
Oh! Dante is truly warm-hearted, very sensitive and kind. It’s good that Serafina knows at least a little about him.
“But it’s a problem that I don’t even have proper clothes to wear *while* going
Wow 😮…”don’t even have clothes to go out to buy clothes”…..just…how bad is her usual clothing?!
The outing was set for the very next day.
I must say; the servants of the Duke’s mansion work fast!
Or was this just urgent?
