I Think My Daughter Has Regressed (7 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 93
“Sir Charles.”
Lucy, who had just stepped out of the playroom, halted and called out to Charles.
“Yes, Your Grace.”
Lucy slowly closed and then opened her eyes, clenched her fists tightly, and looked up at him.
“How much do you know about Earl Shannon’s scheme?”
“…Excuse me?”
Charles parted his lips momentarily as he met her green eyes fixed firmly upon him.
Just a moment ago, those pupils had been trembling with anxiety—but now that uncertainty had vanished completely, leaving only the commanding presence of the duke’s daughter he’d witnessed during the kidnapping.
Caught off guard by Lucy’s sudden shift, Charles could do nothing but gape like a goldfish.
“Didn’t you just hear it? Helen called me ‘Lucy Shannon.’ Doesn’t that mean Earl Shannon’s side is already planning such a move?”
Even amid her confusion, Lucy was precisely grasping the situation.
Charles took a deep breath as he looked down at the young girl’s delicate face—could these truly be the words of a seven-year-old?
He realized then that Lucy had deliberately feigned anxiety in the playroom.
It was an act.
A chill ran down his spine, just as it had when she’d summoned him disguised as a knight.
An Indifferent Woman is the One Men Desire the Most
One-line summary: The female lead is actually cold-hearted and extremely rational. She has stage-by-stage relationships and won’t two-time, but there will always be someone who secretly likes her.
This novel has the following triggers, so if you’re sensitive to these, please don’t read:
1. The female lead has had many relationships, but she treated each one seriously and broke up properly.
It’s just that the men unilaterally pestered her incessantly. For the female lead, when she doesn’t like someone anymore, she simply doesn’t like them.
(This applies to her relationships with Male Lead 1, 2, 3, and 4 as well, but she’s loyal in each 1-on-1 relationship!)
2. In this novel, Male Lead 2 and the female lead kiss in a car, and Male Lead 1 sees it and beats up Male Lead 2.
The female lead calls the police and sends both Male Lead 1 and 2 to the police station! Male Lead 1 begs the female lead not to break up with him.
3. Male Lead 1 has a gentle appearance but an obsessive personality.
Male Lead 2 has a delicate and soft appearance, slightly green tea-like (two-faced).
Male Lead 3 is a youthful college student and a smart person who has secretly liked the female lead for a long time.
Male Lead 4 is the female lead’s father’s special assistant, a business elite with deep, hidden thoughts.
4. At the beginning of this novel, the female lead has already broken up with Male Lead 1 (Chapter 4) and gotten back together with Male Lead 2 (ex-boyfriend).
5. Enter with caution if you have triggers!!!
Ooo, he is indeed a quick one! Poor Lucy. My mother died well after I became an adult and I still miss her terribly.
Tsk. Charles needs to read some Doyle: “When you have eliminated all which is impossible, then whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.”
Say what? The duke is a centaur? Ha ha ha ever so funny
