I Decided to Let You Go (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 48
“Duchess Aschardt.”
After a long pause, Ash finally spoke.
“Just to clarify, I am not in any improper relationship with His Grace. And it’s nothing grand enough to call it a ‘bond’—it’s merely a childhood connection that has simply continued until now.”
“Oh, no! I’d never assume such a thing! If I’ve offended you, Miss Calent, I apologize in advance. I was only…”
Natasha, unintentionally about to reveal her true feelings, abruptly clamped her mouth shut in surprise.
Yes, only…
She had been puzzled that in her past life, she never once encountered Ash Calent.
If it were truly just a simple connection like she claimed, the relationship between their houses should have become public knowledge—but Ash Calent had been completely erased, as if someone had deliberately hidden her.
“…I was only being impolite out of my wish to become closer to you, Miss Calent, and ended up prying into your personal affairs.”
Natasha hastily covered up her slip.
“No, it’s quite all right. I reacted too sensitively and probably said more than necessary. I meddled out of worry that your relationship might suffer because of me.”
Ash responded with a gentle smile and continued.
“I know it’s impolite, but may I excuse myself first, Your Grace? The stares of the crowd gathering here are becoming uncomfortable.”
“I’m sorry—I never meant to burden you…”
“No need to apologize.”
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!
