In the Midst of Revenge on Cinderella (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 21
While polishing the statue, I suddenly rolled up my sleeve to check the bracelet.
Staring at the purple gemstone, I recalled Jaan of Karl. I gritted my teeth, remembering those annoying, mocking eyes of his.
“Should I just go sell it off?”
I shook my head, glaring at the bracelet. Better to endure it—otherwise, who knows what kind of blame they’d pin on me using it as an excuse.
Anyway, Karl is clearly on Floria’s side, so what does that mean about the First Prince’s connection to the guild?
‘Ah!’
Right—the First Prince lost to Floria far too carelessly at the end, considering his abilities. He was exiled from the country without properly defending himself against the flood of corruption allegations.
Even while reading the original story, I thought it was strange—but if the guild had been acting as a double agent and ultimately betrayed the First Prince, it would make perfect sense.
“That’s it! That’s the only explanation!”
I swallowed my admiration for how neatly my deduction fit together.
‘I’d better watch my words from now on. If I accidentally badmouth Floria without realizing it, I might end up dead before anyone even notices.’
Remembering the terrifyingly stern expression that appeared just from a bit of gossip, my body shuddered.
“Still… he seemed kinder than I expected….”
His hands carefully untangling my knotted hair were incomparably gentle compared to the maids who’d deliberately hurt me while brushing it.
Feeling oddly self-conscious, I fled the spot as if running away, forgetting entirely about returning to the banquet. As a result, Floria scolded 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.”
Shes really got caught by the demon king. Good luck for the grim future
