Lord Preston's Secret Tutor (47 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 62
“…Is it alright?”
Jacqueline asked hesitantly. William turned his back instead of answering, and she looked down at the letter in her hand with a wary expression.
The sender was Southfield.
A letter from her mother.
Another dry laugh escaped Jacqueline’s lips—a fragile smile that crumbled like autumn leaves at the slightest breeze.
As she began reading the letter, her face grew as cold as a child standing alone in winter. Unconsciously, Jacqueline wrapped her arms around her own shoulders.
A cold wind swept past her nape. No matter how tightly she fastened her collar, the wind easily pierced through to her chest.
Whooosh, whooosh.
Somewhere deep within her heart, it felt as if a hole had opened, echoing with hollow emptiness.

“Hurry up, Ritz.”
At Benjamin’s words, Ritz, who had just finished putting on the boy’s stockings, stepped back and said, “All done.” Her eyes quickly scanned Benjamin’s attire.
“Good work.”
“Wait a moment, young master.”
Benjamin, about to leave the room, frowned at Ritz’s call. Seeing the boy unusually impatient, Ritz reached out.
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.

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.
