My Fiancé Keeps Trying to Raise Me (16 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 124
“What? Eliminated in the first round?”
Bridget scrunched up her face at the unbelievable news.
The previous day, she had rushed around visiting every renowned dressmaker in the Alkan Empire and only returned to the imperial palace late at night.
She had bought her gown for the immediate occasion as an off-the-rack piece with minor alterations, but the gown for the state wedding required painstaking selection and custom tailoring.
Queen Esther had repeatedly emphasized that on that day, Bridget must appear more beautiful than Anet in her wedding dress.
Though it would have been ideal if the Grand Duke changed his mind before the wedding, time was running short—so much so that they had even considered announcing a replacement bride at the ceremony itself.
Of course, Bridget had absolutely no desire to become the Grand Duke’s bride; she had merely indulged freely in luxuries she’d long restrained herself from enjoying.
And now, only at dawn did she hear the news that Jeon hadn’t even reached the finals—he’d been eliminated in the preliminaries, and not just that, but in the very first round.
“Ha, how absurd.”
Hadn’t he been described as a swordsman skilled enough to contend for victory?
Yet he’d been knocked out in the preliminaries. Wasn’t that not only failing to bring honor to Heyworth, but actually bringing it disgrace?
“I’ll skip the finals today.”
Bridget declared in a voice dripping with irritation.
The maidservant, who had just finished preparing her bath, looked flustered.
“But it’s a grand tournament held here in the Alkan Empire…”
The Villainous Demon Lord Laid an Egg for Her (Female-Dominated)
Several months after transmigrating into a book, Yu Wu found herself facing the demon lord Li You, who could no longer conceal his dragon horns. With one hand on her aching waist and the other gripping a sharp sword, she stared at him.
The demon lord’s eyes were red with fury:
“This is all your doing! Today, I won’t rest until I kill you!”
Yu Wu rubbed her temples. Putting aside the taboo against bloodshed during pregnancy, wasn’t it this very man who willingly walked into her trap that day?!
Warnings:
- Male pregnancy.
- Height ratios are set to mirror typical male-female height proportions.
- Characters include a foot-loving demon lord and an eldest daughter from an immortal family’s concubine lineage.
