Second Male Lead, You Said It Was A Contract Marriage? (7 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 107
The next morning. Yezar did not blame me. On the contrary, he was restless with worry over my physical condition.
“Madam, did I treat you harshly? I am sorry. I showed you such an unseemly sight.”
Foolish man. The magic was cast because of me.
“No, it was because of me that this happened. I am the one who should apologize.”
For some reason, Yezar’s eyes drooped at my apology. His expression involuntarily drew my concern. I nearly reached out to stroke his head, then stopped myself.
I must not touch his body again. After all, I had already decided to end things with him.
“Yes. Don’t be greedy. I’ll keep every moment we’ve shared as a beautiful memory.”
My desires, already crossing the line, had devoured everything about him. Yezar’s face—whispering my name and murmuring love—chaotically clouded my mind.
I should return to the Duke’s residence as soon as possible. If my resolve weakened, I might end up confessing my love to him.
***
The moment I arrived at the Duke’s residence, I retrieved the hidden divorce contract I’d concealed from the servants’ eyes. When I first drafted this contract, I never imagined my heart would come to this.
“I suppose I should bear the responsibility for the divorce. If Yezar demands penalty fees for contract termination, I’ll pay them in full. I want to end this cleanly, without leaving any debt.”
I needed to end things with Yezar as quickly as possible. Only while my rational mind remained intact could I do so.
And after divorcing Yezar… what should I do? I had no desire to return to the Orbetian household.
Naturally, the face of my nanny at the Orbetian estate came to mind. Before marrying Yezar, I had planned to travel.
When scheming men desperately battle for her favor in the male harem
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…
