Regret With All Your Might (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 157
The sisters were continuing their lively conversation.
Essela had relayed the rumors she’d heard to Olivia, and Olivia vividly recounted what had happened in the imperial palace.
“Good heavens… His Grace the former Archduke is still alive….”
Essela muttered this again and again, unable to believe it. Her face was filled with confusion—the pride she’d always held toward the Empire and the Imperial Family, all of it now revealed as an illusion.
So Olivia changed the subject, as if to lighten the mood.
“Essela, have you been alright? You said reading ledgers was a bit difficult, right?”
“Oh, I don’t look at ledgers anymore. Brother Jade….”
Essela, speaking without thinking, quickly covered her mouth with her hand. At the same time, her amethyst-colored eyes darted around nervously, stealing glances at Olivia.
Even seeing that expression, Olivia couldn’t easily bring herself to speak.
Yes—if it had been her old self, she would have smiled gently and said something else. But Olivia remained silent. She knew better than anyone that her silence felt like a prompt, yet she waited for the next words.
Finally, unable to bear the subtle tension, Essela opened her mouth.
“It’s just… Brother Jade has stepped down from his position as Vice-Captain of the Imperial Palace Knights.”
Olivia nearly blurted out an instinctive denial—there was no way. The Jade Madelaine she knew had dreamed of knighthood more than anyone, and once he became a knight, he’d roamed battlefields like a fish in water.
While Olivia bit her lip, Essela added,
“I don’t really know why he quit. He said he’d been thinking about it for a while. You know him well, Sister—he’s not the kind of person who’d resign just because someone told him to….”

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.

Olivia wanted to trace the source of this false rumor and separate Madelaine fro
Yes it is actually very frustrating and ironic how her past wishes become only true once she let them go
Sajida Chapter 158 — Paragraph 67Because her sleeping face resembled Essela’s—because she looked like his younger
Just for this reason. It is difficult for Olivia to forget the grief she suffered from her family.
Sajida Chapter 159 — Paragraph 99“Women and jesters.”
Was this a trap! The emperor fell into the trap easily. Now the empire is heading towards collapse.
