I Ended Up Living Next Door to My Ex-Husband (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 23
Camilla swallowed hard, as though she’d just heard unwelcome news.
Her facial muscles twitched oddly.
She remained frozen like ice for a long while.
Soon, she began trembling all over and burst into tears.
“Oh, no… I—I don’t want to die!”
Camilla grabbed Mina’s skirt again, pleading desperately.
“Please, spare my life! Your Highness Rebecca, please do something…!”
Any trace of the elegant countess had vanished.
I looked down at her, now utterly pitiful, and slowly parted my lips.
“…There’s no such thing as an antidote.”
Then, stepping calmly toward her, I continued,
“Because it was just tea, after all.”
Camilla looked up at me, her face smeared with black tears.
“…What?”
Her eyes darted frantically back and forth.
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.
