Selected as the New Stepmother (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 36
The Duke Loomps bowed with a meaningful farewell and departed.
I gently touched the pin she had left behind, turning the situation over in my mind.
“Are you all right?”
The knight, who had remained silent until now, asked. I nodded silently in reply.
“So the Duke Loomps likes Duke Artenbach? That’s why she gave me that warning.”
But I’m not involved with the Duke at all. I’m only staying here to be the Kid’s mother for a year.
“I don’t feel good about this.”
My chest felt tight. I could endure wearing ill-fitting clothes and awkward adornments, but this felt unjust.
I roughly combed my hair with my hand and lifted my skirt to step outside—when Duke Artenbach entered with his Secretary.
“The conversation took longer than expected. The test drive hasn’t started yet, I assume?”
The Duke sat down, adjusting his tie. His expression betrayed no knowledge of what had just transpired here.
I hesitated whether to speak—whether to tell him that the Duke Loomps had come, warned me not to pursue him, and left me feeling deeply wronged, so he should handle it himself.
“You’ve let your hair down.”
His gaze, as he spoke, rested not on me but on the automobile.
If he had asked why I had undone my hair, I had planned to tell him about meeting the Duke Loomps. But that was all.

really disliked him
Short intro:
What she can’t stand the most is the streets full of effeminate men, especially that so-called top beauty whom she avoids at all costs.
Shen Yaoxing looks at Jiang Mingyue, who keeps approaching her with coy shyness.
Shen Yaoxing: Bro, don’t be like this, I’m really about to throw up!
She fears nothing in heaven or earth, except for him getting close to her.
*
At first he thought she was just using the trick of feigning indifference to attract his attention. Later, he learned that she truly despised him.
This dealt a heavy blow to Jiang Mingyue, and he vowed to make her, like everyone else, fall at his feet in worship!
