Miss Pendleton (Update to C.222 END) - Chapter 221
Episode 74
Having learned all the circumstances, Anne could not help but fall in love.
It was a splendid love story. But even more splendid was the married life of the two. Oswald McGill was a man like a toy soldier, but Anne, undeterred, drew out the warm emotions in his heart. He loved Anne for it, and to her, he became the most affectionate husband in the world.
Laura, hearing the trivial details of their domestic life through letters, grew quite fond of Lawyer McGill.
At that moment, Ian, who had been quietly listening to the conversation, spoke up.
“Mr. McGill, are you still working at Jayden & Maze Law Firm?”
“Yes. How did you know?”
“I saw your name among the business cards sent from the firm. Are you going to work tomorrow as well?”
“Yes. I plan to take the night train.”
“Take a day off. Send a telegram to the firm saying you’ve been requested for legal consultation by the Dalton family.”
Oswald looked at the great landowner before him with a puzzled expression.
“My wife is so fond of your wife that she’ll be depressed if you leave like this. Stay the night in the guest room and join us for lunch before you go.”
Laura’s face flushed.
“Really, you.”
Oswald McGill glanced at his wife. He noticed Anne’s delight at Dalton’s proposal and nodded immediately.
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.”

“So, Ann, are you happy?”
What the author did was truly lovely – bringing the narrative full circle. The story began with two friends, and that’s exactly how it ends…
