Love Me Just Once (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 39
It was quite some time after the Marquis’s funeral before they were finally able to leave Rohos Castle.
“Anika Rohos is the sole heir, but since the succession was sudden, there will inevitably be many missteps.”
Idren offered to help solidify her position. Ophelia watched as he sorted through the factions loyal to the new Marquis of Rohos. Idren seemed to be advising the new lord based on memories from his past.
Ophelia thought about whether there was anything she could tell him, but nothing came to mind. It was only natural—she had never concerned herself with alliances among lords, even in her previous life.
She had mostly associated with merchants from Netepel and Egelbamot, as well as nobles close to him. She had also exchanged letters with Deos Lakmata, who had settled in Tesendot.
She had managed to get in touch with the family of her mother—the late Queen Consort of Reden, who had taken her own life long ago—but she never grew close to them.
Once members of a minor island kingdom’s royal family, they had grown to loathe anyone from Reden’s royal line ever since their princess was taken by King Dares of Reden. This sentiment intensified after that princess bore two children for the Reden king and then hanged herself.
In any case, the key point was that within Aglante, she had never mingled well with people.
Once again this time, Idren did not entrust her with governance.
“It’s not that I don’t trust you—I simply don’t want you to concern yourself with domestic affairs.”
When the topic of governance arose during their conversation in the guest chamber of Rohos Castle, he said exactly that.
Ophelia thought Idren wasn’t wrong. Since she would be leaving in a few years anyway, it was better not to get too deeply involved in politics.
Yet it felt inconsistent—having decided to get along well, only for him to handle everything alone. So one night, Ophelia mentioned something she believed she could manage adequately.
“I’ve had quite a bit of experience handling money.”
The man—who had been sitting beside her on the bed, fiddling absentmindedly with her hair ever since he’d started doing so one day (and seemed quite fond of it)—raised an eyebrow. Ophelia spoke to him, noticing he wasn’t taking her seriously.
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
