I've Possessed Persephone (9 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 21
Persephone gently stroked the coin purse as if petting a puppy.
Originally, Persephone’s planned excuse had been the ridiculous claim that she “sought to explore the grandeur of life’s creation”…
“Pretending to be innocent and improvising on the spot actually worked out better.”
Since the man she’d called “father” was apparently a god she’d never even heard of, she’d wondered if pressing him on that point might work.
“This worked far too well.”
Persephone poured the coins out onto the table with a clatter.
The hard coins jingled as they struck one another. Counting them one by one, she marveled at the surprisingly large sum.
“So he really is as wealthy as they say.”
She’d only known in her mind that the King of the Underworld was rich, but hadn’t given much thought to the extent of his wealth.
No matter how much Charon collected as ferry fare or how many grave goods the deceased brought upon death…
“Honestly, I thought it was exaggerated.”
Persephone clicked her tongue and shook her head.
She might even have more money than Demeter.
Holding up a coin to catch the light, she smacked her lips.
At first, she’d felt uneasy—“Is it really okay to accept something like this?”—but when the purse dangled right before her eyes, she couldn’t very well refuse.
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.”
Oh my God, poor, pitiful Hades! I hope he finds happiness with Persephone.
Oh, poor Hades! He’s so sweet. Why doesn’t anyone like him? I hope Persephone likes Hades and brings spring into his world.
Poor Hades, how can a little child be hungry? How sweet, how his expression changes upon hearing Persephone speak.
