Sister, I'm the Queen This Life (330 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 466
A moment of silence passed. What did Duchess Rubina truly love? Was it the elderly Leo de Carlo, or merely the wealth and power he possessed?
The answer was so obvious that she needed a moment to moisten her lips before speaking. Duchess Rubina finally cried out, just a little too late:
“There are decades between us!”
As if to compensate for her delayed response, she shouted with forceful conviction:
“I bore the King’s son! You were my first, and I gave you all my youth!”
Duchess Rubina practically screamed at the top of her lungs:
“In my youth, I met Your Majesty and devoted all my best years to you!”
At some point, Leo III stopped listening to a single word Rubina said. From the moment Duchess Rubina began shouting, the old king’s heart felt wonderfully lightened.
‘She deserves to be abandoned.’
Her yelling granted him absolution. Rubina’s obstinate temperament, her fiery rage—everything about her had grown unbearably tiresome. He was also utterly sick of how cunningly she twisted facts to use him like a blade.
Just yesterday, due to Rubina’s deliberate omission of certain truths regarding Alfonso’s affair, the king had made a fool of himself. Leo III had intended to punish Rubina, but Isabella’s sudden interference made him hesitate—
Because he’d felt a flicker of guilt over stripping Rubina of her position for Isabella’s sake. But now, with this outburst, Leo III felt entirely relieved.
‘I should be grateful just to get through this unscathed.’
Leo III believed that merely refraining from punishing Rubina and allowing her to retain her post as palace administrator was an immense act of grace on his part. By rights, she deserved a beating and imprisonment in the West Tower.
Duchess Rubina continued shrieking curses behind him. Without adding another word, Leo III simply turned and walked out of her quarters.
Male lead reborn without memories — but he still falls for her.
The person he finds displeasing in this life turns out to be his cherished wife-master in previous life…
Xie Zhi and Fang Xianxing who had known each other for less than three days through a blind date sat in the same car in front of the civil affairs bureau. They had a disagreement and failed to get married.
Xie Zhi immediately took out his phone, slid through his contacts, and randomly selected the next marriage candidate.
The woman snatched his phone and hung up. Looking at his phone wallpaper, she awkwardly changed the subject: “An ancient painting, eh? It looks pretty good, it’s just that the person in the painting looks a bit like me.”
When he heard this, he sarcastically mocked her for being so delusional, completely unaware that, the person in front of him was the reincarnation of Wen Ru, the famous prime minister of Yuan Shun whom he most admired…
