Under the name of Casius, the knights of the Duke’s house came out and dragged Maximilian away.
As soon as he was driven out of the gate, Maximilian ran somewhere, and I was left alone.
I was rolling my eyes, not knowing what to do, when Casius appeared quietly.
His hostility had diminished since we first met, but his eyes were still cold. She glared at Maximilian and said to me,
“The Viscount has a problem with his personality. How can he doubt the relationship between men he has never met and Teresa? He showed up with the Princess at his side.”
“What?”
“I think Her Highness cherishes Teresa, so I have a favor to ask. If the Viscount is going to treat Teresa like this, please tell him to break off the engagement. Teresa… will never give him up first.”
With that, she went back to the mansion.
I only remembered that I had forgotten something when I got on the carriage in front of the door.
“Ah. His Highness the Crown Prince…”
The event that suddenly unfolded made me forget to bring him along.
I sighed, holding my head in my hands.
[This is the time separator] [Exclusive! Turbulence between the Duke of Winters and Count Menisil]The next day, the front page of the newspaper was covered with the incident of Teresa slapping Maximilian.
Upon seeing the article, my father summoned us immediately.
The Duke knew that the two weren’t getting along, but he didn’t expect an article to be published.
“What the hell is this, Max?”
“……”
“Why are you silent! Jaina, you explain.”
Maximilian glared at me as if warning me, but I wasn’t one to hold back.
One of the reasons why it was difficult to mention divorce from Teresa’s side was alimony. It was customary for the one who requested the divorce first to pay alimony.
The amount didn’t seem large to the Duke’s family, but it was a bit burdensome to the Menisil family.
‘It’s a matter of money even to divorce…’
The simplest solution to the problem was to touch my father’s pride.
My father had strong pride in his position, so he was sensitive to the Duke’s honor being tarnished.
If he knew that the root of this problem lay with Maximilian, he would hardly accept the alimony.
Because it was so in the original work.
“Father, did you know that our family was full of spies from other families?”
“What?”
It seemed he hid this too. I told him what Teresa had been through in our family.
How many families used the servants of the Duke of Winters to slander and torment her.
“How can this be! The shame of the family in front of wide open eyes!”
My father yelled, anger reaching his tips. Maximilian hung his head and said nothing.
“That’s not the end of it. My brother, without any objection to Lady Menisil, entered the banquet with other women and spread rumors.”
Hottempered, my father threw the stack of papers on one side at my brother.
“Are you really in your right mind? A son engaged, what in the world!”
Then I threw the final counter. It was like throwing a gas cylinder into a burning house.
Although that house was our house, it was a bit sad.
“And yesterday, he cornered Lady Menisil in front of everyone, asking if she cheated on him with some other man.”
“You… this crazy thing!”
In the end, my father stood up and started beating my brother. The sound of the Duke, once the empire’s greatest knight, hitting Maximilian was even cheerful.
After beating him for quite a while, my father yelled,
“Go apologize right now! Go on your knees and beg, but get Lady Menisil’s apology!”
With that, we were driven out of the office.
Maximilian bit his lip and looked at me.
“Are you satisfied now?”
“If I had left it alone, father would have thought as he pleased? He wouldn’t know that you did such nonsensical things, so he would rather have pressed the Menisil family. And our kind Teresa would have said it was her fault.”
This had happened several times in the original work. Teresa always covered up the problems caused by Maximilian’s wrongdoing.
Because she thought the relationship would end otherwise.
“You just need to be good to Teresa from now on! I was just angry at what you said that day, it wasn’t my true feelings.”
Certainly, here is the translated passage:
“Isn’t it worse to hurt someone with insincere words?”
At my words, Maximilian closed his mouth.
“Big brother is a terrible person.”
“Jaina!”
“Yelling like that won’t help, so do whatever you want.”
You’re speaking your true feelings. I planned to completely separate the two on this occasion.
[This is the time separator]A few days later, a letter came from Teresa. The content of the letter was ordinary, but she was worried about Maximilian’s wellbeing.
I’m not sure if it’s sincere, but Maximilian has been begging Teresa every day. However, thanks to the letter I secretly sent to the Menisil family, outlining the situation, the family stopped their meetings.
[I’m not sure about my relationship with Maximilian, but I want to continue to be close with Jaina. If you have time, could you come to the Count’s residence tomorrow?]My Arch-enemy Sealed My Memory and Said That He is My Husband
This is an incredibly captivating story that you absolutely shouldn’t miss! I’ll give a brief introduction here, and below you’ll find a detailed synopsis of the plot.
The female lead is a fierce and powerful demon king. The male lead is a once-in-a-millennium celestial lord, admired by the entire cultivation world.
They are equally matched, legendary rivals who have battled for centuries.
In the final duel, the female lead is gravely injured. The male lead saves her, seals her memories, and hides her true identity. He tells her that he is her fiancé. His entire life has been flawless—except for the one thing he never expected, never controlled, and never wanted to control: falling for his greatest enemy. She is his inner demon, his obsession.
When the female lead regains her memories, she is furious at his deception.
She makes his life a living hell.
And somehow, the male lead—possibly a total masochist—doesn’t mind at all. In fact, he’s happy she’s paying attention to him.
Yep, we’re back to my favorite trope: male lead suffering. If you love this kind of story, jump into the pit with me now!!!
Intro
Dong Xia lost her memory.
Her handsome and extremely powerful fiancé Li Qing comforted her: “It’s okay if you can’t remember. I’ll always be with you.”
Everyone thought Dong Xia’s ancestors must have burned incense to get such a perfect fiancé. He was the number one person in the immortal realm, yet he remained chaste and only loved her.
…
The day before marrying her fiancé, Dong Xia finally remembered everything.
She wasn’t suffering from memory loss at all.
Her arch-enemy had made her fake her death, destroyed her cultivation, replaced her memories, and pretended to be her deeply in love fiancé.
No wonder he said, “It’s okay if you can’t remember”!
Dong Xia laughed coldly as she pulled out her long knife: Li Qing, prepare to die 🙂
*
Li Qing, as the supreme being of the immortal realm, was the people’s shining beacon.
The only unknown stain in his life was his affection for Dong Xia, the ruler of the demon realm.
In the final battle of the war between immortals and demons, the sky collapsed and the earth shattered. The ruler of the demon realm was finally slain under the sword of the supreme being of the immortal realm, and everyone in the immortal realm applauded.
The cultivation world lost a ruler of the demon realm.
And in the back mountain of Li Qing’s cave dwelling, he secretly hid away a fiancée.
Notes:
1. The female lead is white on the outside, black on the inside, and the queen of flattery; the male lead repeatedly tests the edge of darkness, a VIP guest at the crematorium.
2. Fantasy cultivation world setting.
