I Had the Enemy's Baby (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 121
His kiss resembled that man himself.
Her startled heart pounded inside her chest as if it had grown hands, thumping against her ribs until her whole chest reverberated.
It was a kiss that mirrored Kai An’s sudden appearance in Clodel’s life—
arrogantly declaring, “Did you really think you could die as you pleased?” and forcibly breathing vitality into her when she’d nearly faded away, devoid of hope or will, scraping the bottom of an empty well for even a handful of vigor.
‘He isn’t pushing me away.’
The gap, which had made her uneasy as if distance between their bodies meant distance between their hearts, instantly narrowed.
Yet she couldn’t feel purely happy either. The delicate tightrope she’d been walking all this time now summoned even more complex and peculiar emotions.
Just as before she’d opened her heart to him, and before she’d begun carefully guarding her conduct upon learning of her pregnancy.
Were Clodel’s confessions to him—words once spoken with passion to a man who held her tightly in his arms, breathing as though consumed by urgency—now nothing more than futile bubbles shattering against stone?
After all, it was the waves’ remnants that scattered and vanished, not the rocks themselves.
Facing Kai An, who showed no trace of the heartache she felt, Clodel quietly gathered her bitter solitude.
As their perfectly interlocked lips finally parted—as if he’d deliberately set out to rummage through her innermost thoughts—Kai An’s crimson eyes looked down at her golden irises, shimmering with unshed tears.
Without a word, the man who had been gazing into her eyes gently brushed her dry cheeks as if to wipe away invisible tears.
“Why that expression?”
“…….”
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.”
That king… that traitor… is a thorn in the throat
Oh, you don’t care much about rumors… I feel ashamed, Duke.
Congratulations, my dear champion, but why did you tell that pest?
