I Killed My Husband (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 80
Mercedes did not look surprised. The Empress Dowager and the Emperor were both too preoccupied with probing each other’s secrets; it was natural that Carlos would be assumed to know of the Count’s existence.
If he knew of the Count, he would have told Mercedes. Thus, her excessive astonishment at the Count’s appearance seemed even stranger.
“Father…”
The Empress Dowager had received the Count’s stern letter, hadn’t she? Naturally, she had anticipated their relationship was strained.
She did not know what the Empress Dowager intended to do with the Count, but if she followed the letter’s tone, she might give the Empress Dowager grounds to exploit her.
Until the Count arrived and the banquet began, Mercedes had reached this conclusion:
‘It would be better to pretend we get along perfectly.’
She did not know what scheme was being devised, but if she acted amiably, she would not be immediately accused.
So Mercedes rose abruptly.
Four people who had tormented her for her entire life stood before her.
The Count’s stern, bright face; the Countess’s flushed countenance; Flora’s face filled with discontent; Frederick’s face, sneering faintly as he looked at her.
A wave of nausea surged instantly.
These were faces she had tried, for half a year in her room, to forget—but could not. Faces she had etched into her mind with a single-minded resolve for revenge.
What would it be like to see them again? She was nervous. But perhaps, she thought, it might be alright.
For she felt as though she had returned to the emotionless state she once inhabited.
When scheming men desperately battle for her favor in the male harem
This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”
Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
