I Possessed the Wicked Empress (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 121
Even amidst the unease, time flowed at the same pace as before.
Ermedilin, who had been slowly reading through the history of her downfall, suddenly stopped reading her diary altogether.
It felt as though if she kept reading those records of atrocities—thickly tangled with hatred, rage, and despair—she might lose even her certainty about herself.
The Ermedilin of the original story was Ermedilin, and I am me.
Right now, she needed something to hold onto her sense of self, even as condemnation poured down upon her.
For Ermedilin, that anchor was her sense of duty.
The more she thought of it as merely struggling to survive, the more this thought kept returning:
‘Can I truly live bearing the sins of this body? Can I live as if I know nothing at all?’
Thus, she resolved to focus solely on her duties as Empress.
Doing her utmost with the tasks before her to protect her crumbling self, holding onto the vague and anxious hope that if she gave her all sincerely, people might eventually understand.
“Wow, the completion ceremony is really just around the corner now!”
Ermedilin, who had been inspecting the fine details of the orphanage still undergoing interior construction, suddenly lifted her head at Runi’s words.
“That’s right! This day has finally come! Your Majesty, you’ve worked so hard all this time!”
Hearing Runi’s words, Ermedilin suddenly recalled the moment she first transmigrated.
Back then, when even hiring a lawyer was difficult, she had asked the very prosecutor who had indicted Ermedilin in the original story for help.
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.”
Wait what the hell. I lowkey hate henri but i feel bad for her to have to suffer with a loser like him omgn
