I Killed My Husband (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 73
Carlos was radiating an aura as if he meant to kill. Step by step. Everyone was tense.
But Carlos attended to Mercedes before even Lucas. The Emperor, with humble deference, knelt on one knee to meet his lady’s eye level, his eyes filled with worry as he spoke.
Of course, his voice could not help but tremble.
“Mel, are you alright?”
Mercedes had thought, until Carlos approached, that the matter was now merely a matter of retreat. But at the moment his endearment slipped out, she could not help but be flustered.
“Al… alright.”
She replied slowly. Carlos frowned deeply as he gazed at the injury concealed beneath her dress. He seemed unaware he had used the endearment.
That was true. Carlos had not uttered it deliberately.
His sharp mind instantly grasped the entire situation—even that Mercedes had deliberately injured herself.
That was why he was furious; the endearment, which he had only held inside and rolled on his tongue, had burst forth uncontrollably.
“Your Majesty, please rise. To kneel on the floor—”
Mercedes, with a peculiar feeling, spoke carefully to Carlos.
“If you are injured, what does my kneeling matter?”
Carlos spoke as if spitting out the words, then wrapped his arms around her shoulders. Yet he found it strange.

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.
