Regret With All Your Might (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 71
Winstor gritted his teeth.
This trembling—it was the first time since swearing his knightly oath to His Grace the Duke.
He’d happened to meet Bethany on his way to the castle and, upon hearing that knights would swear fealty to the young lady today, had sprinted here in a panic.
Everyone’s loyalty to the young lady might be similar, but the knight who gave the second oath had to be him.
After all, he’d always intended to serve her faithfully from the moment he entered the Duke’s household.
“Perhaps….”
When that quiet voice slipped out, Winstor felt as if he’d briefly visited hell. It wasn’t the expected phrase accepting the oath.
“Is today my birthday?”
But the words that followed immediately returned Winstor to heaven.
As she took the sword, the young lady spoke playfully. Though she pretended calmness, her voice still trembled—and Winstor sincerely thought he’d done right to run here so quickly.
“…To receive such a grand gift.”
“Wow. You didn’t say anything like that when I swore my oath.”
At that mutter, Edwin grumbled briefly—but even he wore a smile on his face.
“Olivia. As your future Duchess, I joyfully accept your honor. May my joy once again belong to your honor.”
Her voice, filled with emotion, echoed through the banquet hall. The moment the second oath concluded, Howard and Dian snapped out of their daze and bowed respectfully, nearly competing for order.
My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)
A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage
Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.
In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.
As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.
Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.
She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.
“Brother, come home with me.”
Dear lord I got so much second hand embarrassment from reading Maria’s scenes. Idk if I should feel bad or delighted that she’s getting all she deserves
