Miss Pendleton (Update to C.222 END) - Chapter 52
Miss Lance couldn’t calm her pounding heart after having that thought.
Could the two have been in love? Did their relationship sour?
Miss Lance felt her head going strange with anxiety. The speculation that the person she was pouring her affection for might have shared some kind of affection with another woman shook her mind immensely.
She turned her gaze away from him, trying to regain her composure.
It was certain that the two were not in love with each other now. She had never heard a rumor that Mr. Dalton had returned to London and visited the Pendleton house. The only social event he had attended was her tea party.
Firmly recognizing this fact, the possibility of Mr. Dalton’s heart being directed towards Miss Pendleton disappeared from her mind. Miss Lance’s anxious heart settled. But doubts still remained. Miss Pendleton, who was so flustered when talking about the incident at the picnic just now.
She reflected on what happened at the last picnic. Mr. Dalton, who disappeared into the forest saying he had business while talking to her. About an hour later, Miss Pendleton, who rushed out looking pale and hurriedly returned home by carriage. And Mr. Dalton who came running after her.
Why did Miss Pendleton rush home so hastily? Why did Mr. Dalton run out looking for Miss Pendleton?
She soon recalled that she had talked to Mr. Dalton about Miss Pendleton’s lineage at the lakeside. As Miss Lance pieced together her thoughts, a flash of insight suddenly struck her mind.
‘Mr. Dalton found out about Miss Pendleton’s lineage and abandoned her!’
Miss Lance felt like she had solved all the puzzles within herself after thinking that. Because it fit logically in her own thinking.
The two must have had feelings for each other. Miss Pendleton would have liked Mr. Dalton. Because Mr. Dalton is a wonderful, handsome, kind, gentlemanly, and great man. And Mr. Dalton must have had feelings for Miss Pendleton too. Although she’s older, Miss Pendleton is kind and pretty.
So Mr. Dalton gave the Whitefield painting as a gift. As an expression of his affection. But in the end, Mr. Dalton learned of Miss Pendleton’s bloodline and confirmed the truth with her in the forest.
Miss Pendleton would have honestly confessed the truth… And because of that, Mr. Dalton declared to cut ties with her!
Thinking this way, the mysterious behavior of Miss Pendleton and Mr. Dalton who left early from the picnic was completely explained. Miss Pendleton left heartbroken by Mr. Dalton’s declaration, and Mr. Dalton followed, feeling guilty about letting Miss Pendleton go like that. Because he is a gentlemanly and kind person.
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
[Note: This story will not specifically point out the male lead’s reincarnation time point; it’s all in the details. Whenever you feel that the male lead is acting strangely, he has most likely been reincarnated.]

It’s progressing a bit slowly, but nicely… I hope there won’t be unnecessary distances between them due to misunderstandings.
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.
