Miss Pendleton (Update to C.222 END) - Chapter 114
The next day, they arrived at London Station. It was a chilly dawn, still cloaked in the dim hues of night. They settled their journey at a nearby inn.
After a simple breakfast, Ian spoke to his agent.
“Let’s head to Grosvenor Square together after lunch. Have a hired carriage ready in front of the inn by one o’clock.”
“Yes, sir. Understood. By the way, where do you plan to spend the morning?”
“I’m going to Harrods to buy gifts for my nephews. They’re quite disappointed since their beloved teacher left.”
Of course, I am too. He swallowed the rest of his words, dressed in a well-ironed suit and a gentleman’s hat, and left the inn.
A cool autumn breeze refreshed London’s stuffy air. Hands in his pockets, he walked to Harrods.
The department store was still quiet. He passed silver cutlery sets displayed in glass cases, shop assistants smiling like mannequins, and piles of various goods stacked behind them, heading toward the staircase.
He had visited Harrods before, to buy a dollhouse set for Olivia’s birthday during his university days.
He recalled the toy section was on the third floor. Climbing the stairs, he thought,
‘Since those boys want to be sailors, a toy soldier set might do. If they loved books, I’d buy them a collection, but the only person who could get them to read has run off to Bath…’
Just as Ian turned toward the third-floor staircase, he bumped into a couple. As he tried to sidestep them, the woman grabbed his arm.
“Oh, Mr. Dalton!”
Ian looked at her but couldn’t place her. Dark chestnut hair, black eyes, freckled, delicate features.
“Do I know you?”
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.”

I think this trip to Bath will be good to Laura. Meeting these women will inspire her to be more confident. I just hope her ex and Mr. Dalton don’t ruin it.
Each chapter leaves me in suspense for the future. Although the readers are given assurance from Laura’s feelings since the carriage kiss, I can’t help but doubt the next steps for this couple! Ian’s feeling are deep and tumultuous like waves against a cliff. I can only hope that when the two finally meet, he will remain level headed.
