“So what? Brother! Not only the empress but also the princess said so. Then everyone must have! Calling Olivia a half.”
“So, what.”
Above Jade’s shouting voice, a cold reprimand fell.
Conrad Madelleine was, after all, a fair person to everyone. A person who was cold but firm and warm, like his father.
“I left her alone because I wished it so.”
So it was more unbelievable. The fact that Conrad really left Olivia alone knowing everything was something he didn’t want to believe.
In that sharp social world, in front of the empress and the princess. That his own brother was the one who made Olivia hear those numerous insults.
Conrad slowly smiled.
“Didn’t you really know?”
And the fact that it was.
It was too clear.
Jade could not say any word.
The fact that I pretended not to know came back so painfully. As soon as Jade realized it, she clenched her fist tightly. But she couldn’t stop the amethyst eyes from flaring red.
Conrad, who couldn’t see those eyes, smirked and shrugged his shoulders.
“It’s noisy enough because of Olivia. You should stop too, now come back home.”
As if.
Nothing had happened at all.
(This is a time separator.)
The news that Jade Madelleine had come to the ducal house after a long time quickly wrapped around the ducal house.
But not even appearing at dinner, Acella, who went looking for Jade, sensed it.
Something about Jade, changing into formal attire as if she had firmly decided on something, emitted a precarious atmosphere.
Just like me, staggering before going to beg my sister for forgiveness.
“Where are you going?”
“…To Olivia.”
Ha. Esella swallowed a sigh. The thing she had wished for unfolded too late. Esella spoke in a hushed tone.
“My sister has left.”
“What?”
Jade’s eyes widened as if she truly didn’t know. As Jade approached with large strides, the darkness under her eyes was clearly visible.
“To Vicander?”
It was a voice full of confidence, as if there was no other place, but Esella shook her head.
“I won’t tell you that.”
“Esella!”
Despite her name being called loudly, Esella looked at Jade calmly.
“You should have done that sooner.”
Jade’s eyes wavered as if she had been stabbed. Seeing that, Esella’s heart ached even more.
If only a little, just a little sooner.
No, if Jade had come with me when I left.
But the unfulfilled assumptions disappeared like afterimages, untouched by her hand. Esella clenched her trembling lips. Her nose stung.
“…My sister was too kind. She even forgave me for coming so late.”
“……”
“So, I can’t tell you, brother.”
After finishing her words with a trembling voice, Esella turned her back on Jade without any lingering attachment and left Jade’s room. Only then did she sigh to soothe her aching insides.
I’ll show it to brother Jade in one more day.
Esella recalled the letter from Olivia.
“Miss. …A letter has arrived.”
Sally was the first to come to me with a letter said to have come from Duke Vicander’s residence at noon. Her hopeful eyes quickly welled up.
My sister’s love was full in the letter she sent to Sally, she said.
The letter to me was similar.
She had gone to Vicander, and kindly said that if you want to write a letter, you can send it to the Duke’s residence first, written in a graceful handwriting.
The only difference from Sally’s letter was one thing. A letter that systematically recorded how to keep books, budget items, and meeting with the bank president was one more.
On that letter was a request to deliver it to ‘Jade Madeleine’.
Not to the brother, but to Jade Madeleine.
Seeing that sentence, Esella clearly understood what her sister was trying to say.
Esella, turning her head, felt the place where the family portrait that used to hang in the 1st floor hall had been sharply empty.
As if something had stuck and then fallen off, just that spot on the wall was unusually dark. As if that very spot made a part of Esella’s heart feel empty and hollow.
Her father, who ordered the portrait to be thrown away, would never know. That the portrait went to Esella’s room.
With painful eyes, Esella looked around the mansion.
The curtains that changed with the seasons, beautiful flower decorations, always neat windows and corridors.
The Madeleine Duke’s residence that received everyone’s admiration.
The touch of her sister that reached every nook and cranny of the mansion.
She would no longer be able to see it.
My Arch-enemy Sealed My Memory and Said That He is My Husband
This is an incredibly captivating story that you absolutely shouldn’t miss! I’ll give a brief introduction here, and below you’ll find a detailed synopsis of the plot.
The female lead is a fierce and powerful demon king. The male lead is a once-in-a-millennium celestial lord, admired by the entire cultivation world.
They are equally matched, legendary rivals who have battled for centuries.
In the final duel, the female lead is gravely injured. The male lead saves her, seals her memories, and hides her true identity. He tells her that he is her fiancé. His entire life has been flawless—except for the one thing he never expected, never controlled, and never wanted to control: falling for his greatest enemy. She is his inner demon, his obsession.
When the female lead regains her memories, she is furious at his deception.
She makes his life a living hell.
And somehow, the male lead—possibly a total masochist—doesn’t mind at all. In fact, he’s happy she’s paying attention to him.
Yep, we’re back to my favorite trope: male lead suffering. If you love this kind of story, jump into the pit with me now!!!
Intro
Dong Xia lost her memory.
Her handsome and extremely powerful fiancé Li Qing comforted her: “It’s okay if you can’t remember. I’ll always be with you.”
Everyone thought Dong Xia’s ancestors must have burned incense to get such a perfect fiancé. He was the number one person in the immortal realm, yet he remained chaste and only loved her.
…
The day before marrying her fiancé, Dong Xia finally remembered everything.
She wasn’t suffering from memory loss at all.
Her arch-enemy had made her fake her death, destroyed her cultivation, replaced her memories, and pretended to be her deeply in love fiancé.
No wonder he said, “It’s okay if you can’t remember”!
Dong Xia laughed coldly as she pulled out her long knife: Li Qing, prepare to die 🙂
*
Li Qing, as the supreme being of the immortal realm, was the people’s shining beacon.
The only unknown stain in his life was his affection for Dong Xia, the ruler of the demon realm.
In the final battle of the war between immortals and demons, the sky collapsed and the earth shattered. The ruler of the demon realm was finally slain under the sword of the supreme being of the immortal realm, and everyone in the immortal realm applauded.
The cultivation world lost a ruler of the demon realm.
And in the back mountain of Li Qing’s cave dwelling, he secretly hid away a fiancée.
Notes:
1. The female lead is white on the outside, black on the inside, and the queen of flattery; the male lead repeatedly tests the edge of darkness, a VIP guest at the crematorium.
2. Fantasy cultivation world setting.
