Rather Than Be Taken, I Will Take (12 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 105
Aden, who had stopped in front of the office door, let out a small sigh.
Though he had assured Benjamin there would be no problem, in truth, he himself was no more eager than anyone else to meet the Crown Prince in this manner.
Just three months ago—he had met the man who had then led the war.
After Ludmila vanished, he had intended to hold Havertz accountable.
Moreover, Aden had no intention of positively reversing his relationship with the Crown Prince, who had already crossed every boundary imaginable; thus, he could not help but harbor suspicion about all this.
It was certainly not to discuss anything pleasant that he had been summoned.
Understanding Benjamin’s worry completely, Aden had downplayed it with nonchalance to ease his concerns—but the reality was quite the opposite.
No matter how thoroughly he reviewed all possibilities—what Jeffrey could do, what Jeffrey was aiming for—nothing satisfactory came to mind.
The Emperor had delegated all authority to the Crown Prince, Jeffrey.
This international event, the first to be held under his own name, was an excellent opportunity to widely demonstrate his own capabilities.
Could there truly be something so threatening that Jeffrey would forgo this undeniable chance to prove his own achievements?
No matter how many times he asked himself, the answer remained the same.
“It’s Aden.”
‘No.’ That was the answer. Thus, Aden knocked on the door and, upon hearing the reply from within, immediately opened it.
Jeffrey, seemingly just rising from his seat, pushed his chair back. Aden entered, closed the door behind him, and stood before Jeffrey.

This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”
Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
