Lord Preston's Secret Tutor (47 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 37
It was Samantha who had remained unchanged. She was still as innocent as ever, utterly unaware of the world’s ugliness. She had bloomed beautifully like a flower nurtured in a warm, windless greenhouse.
“Yes. You haven’t changed at all. You’re still the same Jackie I always liked.”
Samantha’s voice grew wistful, as if tracing memories from long ago.
“Even back then, when Elizabeth mocked me as a ‘rolling cake’ and giggled—everyone was too intimidated by Elizabeth to speak to me, but you, Jackie, treated me just like anyone else.”
“Was it really like that?”
“Yes. That’s when I started liking you, Jackie.”
Samantha smiled gently. The affection glowing in her eyes enveloped Jacqueline in warmth, as if she were burying her face into Colin’s belly.
So Jacqueline found herself smiling too.
Reconnecting a bond she’d thought severed was a wearying task, accompanied by both comfort and bitterness—but it wasn’t as bad as she’d imagined.
Jacqueline brought her teacup to her lips and let out a slow breath.

Roman looked down at the garden visible behind Windsor’s back. The study on the second floor of the mansion offered a rather splendid view, and among everything, the large greenhouse stood out immediately.
Roman, who had been gazing blankly downward, suddenly narrowed his eyes slightly—someone had appeared in the quiet space below.
It was Jacqueline and Benjamin, both wearing straw hats.
What could they be doing there?
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
Intro
As an enchantress, Su Heng possesses captivating eyes and charming beauty, easily manipulating the joys and sorrows of living beings at her fingertips.
But to enchant a god, making him taste the bitterness of love’s separation, long-lasting resentment, unattainable desires, and inability to let go…
Do you dare?
Su Heng assists a divine lord in his cultivation, aiming to make him experience all the sufferings of love, so that he can attain the Great Dao.
Only after being chased down from the heavens by the divine lord, confined and completely possessed by him, does she realize how successful she has been.
The once gentle and polite youth has transformed into someone she no longer recognizes.
