Sister, I'm the Queen This Life (330 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 74
Isabella was horrified. Missing Taranto’s winter social season was disappointing enough, but she urgently needed to get out and spread the rumor that Countess Bartolini, not herself, was Marquis Campa’s true mistress—otherwise, how could she possibly escape this filthy quagmire!
“Hey! Enough! Even in this situation, you still won’t listen to your parents and keep acting like you know better than everyone else!”
“No, no, Papa, that’s not it—”
Lucrezia’s sharp scolding followed immediately.
“Be quiet! Listen to Father! I’m so ashamed I can’t even show my face in public!”
Since Lucrezia usually sided with Isabella no matter what, Isabella grew even more tearful. Cardinal de Mare continued his verdict.
“You’re forbidden from sending or receiving any letters from outside. Don’t go to church either. Live quietly without drawing anyone’s attention.”
“No letters? Please don’t cut me off completely!”
She had to get word to at least her few remaining friends that it was Countess Bartolini—not her—who was Marquis Campa’s mistress!
However, upon seeing his eldest daughter desperately insisting she absolutely must exchange letters, Cardinal de Mare concluded she must have a secret pen-pal lover and was clearly infatuated with some man.
Though this conclusion was mistaken, given the male-sent gifts scattered throughout the room, it was an entirely reasonable assumption.
“You still can’t come to your senses even now! How can a girl be so blinded by men that she doesn’t realize she’s ruining her own reputation! Do you even have a brain!”
Cardinal de Mare bellowed.
“Confiscate all the luxuries in this room! I’ll personally take them away and return them only once you’ve regained your senses!”
Cardinal de Mare signaled to the butler Nicolo standing outside the door.
The Villainous Demon Lord Laid an Egg for Her (Female-Dominated)
Several months after transmigrating into a book, Yu Wu found herself facing the demon lord Li You, who could no longer conceal his dragon horns. With one hand on her aching waist and the other gripping a sharp sword, she stared at him.
The demon lord’s eyes were red with fury:
“This is all your doing! Today, I won’t rest until I kill you!”
Yu Wu rubbed her temples. Putting aside the taboo against bloodshed during pregnancy, wasn’t it this very man who willingly walked into her trap that day?!
Warnings:
- Male pregnancy.
- Height ratios are set to mirror typical male-female height proportions.
- Characters include a foot-loving demon lord and an eldest daughter from an immortal family’s concubine lineage.
