Second Male Lead, You Said It Was A Contract Marriage? (7 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 097
Bertisha’s voice trembled with shock.
“Camileo, are you angry at me right now……?”
She had impulsively slapped Lady Orbetian’s cheek. But to reprimand her so harshly! Whenever such incidents occurred, it was Camileo who would first ask Bertisha if something unpleasant had happened to her. If anyone had upset her, he would willingly punish that person most severely.
‘It was always like that! Camileo, why are you angry at me?’
Bertisha lowered the corners of her eyes sorrowfully and avoided his gaze. Seeing this, Camileo understood that she was hurt.
Yet, as always, he could not comfort and soothe her. This was no longer childhood naivety; now he was Emperor, and she was Empress.
As the foundation and order of this nation, they had to maintain their public image. That was precisely why, when he was still Crown Prince, he had secretly dealt with those who harmed Bertisha—not openly, but behind closed doors.
Being feared by the imperial subjects or nobles was not desirable. A reign of terror, killing and cutting down those one disliked, could not last. The empire’s history books had proven this.
Those who indulged in tyranny barely lasted a few years before crumbling beneath the sparks of rebellion. Camileo was well aware of the responsibilities that came with being Emperor.
And yet, upon the throne of Emperor, he had chosen not a woman from a noble house who could support the Empress’s position, but the one he loved. His love, burning as if consuming everything within him, had always valued the happiness of being together over the stability of status.
But why had Bertisha been acting so un-Empress-like lately? The joy over her pregnancy had lasted only briefly, and recently her sharp words and attitude toward the palace staff occupied his thoughts.
“Yes. I’m angry at the Empress who acted so recklessly, despite knowing full well that eyes and ears are everywhere in the palace.”
His voice, cold to the point of icy detachment, pierced deep into the bones. Camileo continued to address her as “Empress,”
as if drawing a clear line. With glistening eyes, Bertisha confronted him.
“And you, Camileo—why didn’t you tell me you invited Duchess Ferhaem? Weren’t there supposed to be no secrets between us?”
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”

"Is this merely a simple quarrel...? Or has the story already changed?"
What’s happening, darling, is that they’ve already discovered the little web of lies she’s been telling, and that she’s lusting after another woman’s husband, that’s why things are going so badly for her now.
Yezar earnestly wrapped his hands around my cold fingertips, sharing his warmth.
Julietta, if you’re going to be like this and Yezar decides to confess, accept it. It doesn’t change the fact that you accept him, and you can live happily ever after and have many children.
“I know you’ve woken up, Julietta.”
No Julietta, you can’t pretend at all, I’m sure they caught you the moment Yezar came in. Noooooooo! HAHA …
