I Became The Sword Of The Sword-Obsessed Male Lead (18 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 148
What could be the reason for lying?
I was curious about the intent behind hiding the fact that Janice wasn’t at Howard Manor.
Nocturne gave the butler a perfectly composed smile.
“Oh, is that so? Well, that’s quite troublesome. I had an urgent message regarding Prince Dietrich Delgado to deliver.”
At those words, the butler’s pupils visibly widened—likely reacting to the name “Dietrich.” He calmly opened his mouth to speak.
“If it’s urgent news, please tell me, and I’ll be sure to pass it on…”
“That won’t do. It’s something I must deliver in person.”
Nocturne carried on with his act flawlessly to the very end.
“Since neither the Earl nor the young lady is here, I’ll take my leave now. Let’s go, Miss Heidi.”
As Nocturne placed his hand naturally on my shoulder and turned to leave, Lyon hurriedly grabbed his arm.

My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)
A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage
Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.
In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.
As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.
Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.
She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.
“Brother, come home with me.”
