Interest Compounds on Revenge (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 30
Terren was dumbfounded. A duel? Grace seemed impatient because things weren’t going her way. Yet he wondered what kind of duel she had in mind.
“A duel? With guns or swords?”
“Not that kind of violent duel.”
“I’m good at anything. Besides, I’m outstanding in every way compared to others.”
‘Yes, you’re quite impressive, Your Grace.’
He wanted to argue, but there was nothing to fault, leaving him frustrated. Still, Lea had one thing she was confident about.
“Tell me what you want to duel me with.”
“Swimming.”
Lea answered confidently. In truth, the Hamilton Trading Company’s mansion had a bathhouse as long as 100 meters. Naturally, the water was quite deep as well.
Because of that, she’d learned to swim instinctively while bathing since childhood.
“As far as I know, Grace is afraid of water.”
‘Oh no! I didn’t think of that.’
“I’ve… learned. Humans are beings who strive, after all. After my illness, I realized there’s nothing left in this world to fear.”
The lie rolled off her tongue effortlessly. Even as she spoke, she felt so disgusted with herself that goosebumps rose on her skin.
“Hmm, does the ducal estate even have a bathhouse 100 meters long and about 2 meters deep? I don’t recall. You used to be scared of water, so you never went to the bathhouse.”
When scheming men desperately battle for her favor in the male harem
This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.

“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”
Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
Trigger warning: All men in this novel are yandere style.

I don’t understand, if she is trying to save the twins, why is she putting a gun to her head? She needs to be alive for the twins to survive.
This is sounding less like a punishment and more like a privilege.
Sometimes this novel’s inability to reflect anything close to realism frustrates me. Let’s reward arson and attempted murder! (Can’t help but point out the lack of creativity with Mr. Baker’s name.)
