I Had the Enemy's Baby (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 21
“Even if I die, please don’t cut off food supplies to Valmont territory.”
Clodel spoke aloud the words that had tormented her all night—more painfully than the illness that had plagued her for months.
“I’m begging you. The children are starving.”
She desperately hoped he wouldn’t wage war against Valmont territory.
Yet, knowing he was furious over their marriage—forced upon him through deception—she couldn’t rashly voice that plea. This was her best attempt.
“What a truly remarkable saint you are.”
The reply came sharp with biting sarcasm.
Clodel lifted her head to look at the man who mocked her.
“How noble. You’ve come selling your body to the man from your enemy house—all for the sake of hungry little brats.”
“……”
He spoke with genuine exasperation and curiosity, his expression still cold and angry.
But now that the words were out, she couldn’t retreat.
She had to obtain a firm promise from him.
Once he gave his word, surely a man who valued honor wouldn’t break it.
“The children are so pitiful—they should be growing strong, yet they’re starving…”
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.”
You cannot be jealous of your wiggles personal maid
Why does he have to focus so much on his lie instead of focusing on the fact that she is pitiful 🥲
Sharp intuition…hahahaha. The male-lead is very good at being self-contented.
