I Possessed the Wicked Empress (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 46
Tomorrow is finally Foundation Day.
Valière was lost in rapture as she adorned herself with expensive jewels over the dazzling dress made just for her.
‘Hmm. It suits me well. At this level, I won’t be overshadowed by anyone.’
While admiring herself in the mirror for a long while, Valière’s eyes fell upon the mask resting on the table.
‘It’d be better if not for that thing. But I suppose I have no choice—I must humor Henri.’
Valière had decided to share Henri’s bed tomorrow.
It would be the very day she became a marchioness—the most thrilling day of her life—and she planned to seduce him under the influence of that euphoria.
She had read countless related books and even purchased undergarments meant to entice a man.
‘Once I’m pregnant, everything will change. I won’t have to fret and worry about that bastard anymore. I wonder if Duke François is handling things well? I even went so far as to mobilize children prone to curses for him.’
But the duke had already failed once before, so she couldn’t quite trust him.
‘Then again, what if he fails? Once I conceive an heir and become empress, I’ll deal with everything calmly then.’
While Valière was lost in happy daydreams of becoming empress beyond tomorrow’s title-bestowal ceremony, Count Halstein, Henri’s head valet, arrived.
“His Majesty summons you to his office.”
Not knowing what it was about, but in an exceptionally elevated mood, Valière rushed straight to Henri’s office without even changing clothes.
“You called for me?”
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
