I Possessed the Wicked Empress (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 123
I don’t even know what I was thinking when I crossed the corridor and climbed into the carriage.
Henri didn’t possess Arbian’s ability to see souls, yet he witnessed precisely the same scene.
It was devastating.
He had just watched the person he once loved most transform completely into someone else right before his eyes.
The note he’d given to Duke François—he kept it on hand just in case, but Henri hadn’t taken the matter too seriously.
After all, the other party was that witch Ermedilin, and it wasn’t as if anyone had been directly harmed.
Valière had merely sent the orphanage’s blueprint, and it was Duke François who dealt with the maid.
And then there was that murder on the imperial wedding anniversary.
Truthfully, Henri had been shocked by the incident, but he’d only been surprised that such a gentle woman could commit such an act—he hadn’t considered it seriously either.
The deceased woman had threatened someone carrying the Emperor’s child.
Henri had simply assumed Valière, cornered and desperate, had acted in self-defense to protect the child.
But today was different.
This wasn’t about merely inciting someone by sending blueprints, nor was it an impulsive act of self-defense to protect a child.
She’d hidden the earring with her own hands and deliberately inflicted wounds upon herself.
All with the clear intent to ensure someone’s death.
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.
