“I will take care of the rest and send it to Windsor. If you only buy this, how petty would Your Highness look to the subjects?”
“Don’t say things you can’t.”
Shanée skillfully gathered the rest of the jewelry.
If Roskella played the role of an information officer in the tavern, Shanée gathered all kinds of rumors that spread in the boutique.
This place was a hub of information officers belonging to the Crown Prince.
What was it like in the previous life? Aside from Roskella, there seemed to be no information officers directly known…
“You can’t do it halfheartedly. You must create a total mess.”
Benjamin gently held Charlotte’s hand and whispered.
“Shall we leave now?”
A guest would be arriving soon.
Benjamin subtly signaled the time.
Charlotte turned.
Benjamin leisurely led Charlotte with his steps. Though he seemed to hurry, his actions were graceful.
“Follow me.”
As Benjamin took a step, Charlotte took a halfstep.
“Charlotte!”
And then. A familiar voice called Charlotte from behind.
A voice that was familiar but nearly forgotten.
Ah. I’ve waited so long.
“It’s been a long time.”
Father, she swallowed the rest of her words.
(This is a time separator.)
How long had it been since she’d met her father?
It had been a long time in this life, but if she added the last life, it had been decades.
‘Twenty years?’
His face was the same.
“You really haven’t changed.”
“What do you mean?”
“I mean, you’re consistent.”
Consistent. His consistent appearance had made it easy to sever their relationship.
“Your Highness, I wish to speak with my daughter alone. Just a moment… please step aside.”
You dare to use the word ‘daughter’ with those lips. Was I ever your daughter?
Charlotte couldn’t cry. Her twisted lips could only draw an unnatural smile.
“When have I ever been your daughter?”
If I were your daughter, you shouldn’t have done that to me.
Every word she spat scratched at her throat. Each word she pressed through clenched lips weighed heavily.
I told you, you shouldn’t have clung to my ankle.
“Has it been a little over two weeks since we last met?”
“…”
“In that time, many things have happened, and it seems I have to face such things to see that expensive face of yours.”
Even when my mother was dying, you left for your damn business.
Even when Charlotte was disowned, you never showed your arrogant face, just erased her from the family register.
She wasn’t disappointed in that. As Charlotte, she was thankful that he consistently forgot her.
Pyotr yanked Charlotte roughly.
“Do you even have a brain, girl? Tuteaga is a family that serves the Empress. Have you forgotten who Tuteaga serves?”
He whispered in a hushed voice.
“Why are you doing this to me, you mother and daughter?”
Charlotte covered her lips with her fingers.
“I haven’t forgotten.”
“You dare keep a child who remembers that close to the prince!”
Charlotte called Pyotr quietly.
“Duke Tutor.”
“What? What did you just call me?”
“I will slap you soon.”
Pyotr suddenly came to his senses. He extended his shaking hand in surprise and then put it down.
Turning his head around, he found people sneaking glances at him. Oh, how embarrassing…!
Pyotr’s face reddened. Blue veins bulged on the back of his hand. The veined hand looked fierce.
“Lost in your dead mother’s memory, wandering around. Did you miss your mother so much that you went to your maternal home?”
There are many cruel words in the world.
People are delicate and sensitive.
A few words can slash a person like a knife.
“Did you forget where your mother’s ashes are buried? It was not abandonment. I should have confined you at home! You must have missed her so much to wail day and night for three days… And you dare do this behind my back?”
There were times like that. Wailing day and night for three days, collapsing from exhaustion, fainting, crawling on the floor to hug a portrait of her biological mother, and wailing again.
“You weren’t there at that time either.”
It seemed like she was watching over my side.
“You weren’t.”
Not even looking back when I was dying. You shouldn’t have said that to me.
“Let me correct a few things. My mother’s ashes are not there. They’re where they should be, so you won’t find them there. Second, don’t speak as if you reluctantly abandoned me out of annoyance. You’ve already calculated, haven’t you? Which side would benefit more?”
Why do you still act so defiantly before me?
“You didn’t calculate this far, did you?”
Of course, you couldn’t have calculated this far.
You might have calculated the worth of offering me for marriage, but you didn’t calculate this far.
“I didn’t calculate either. I didn’t calculate. Why, of all people, that madman…!”
Pyotr cut off his words abruptly. His face, which had been red and blue, gradually turned pale.
He caught sight of Benjamin.
“You must have always had a foul mouth.”
Benjamin ended his words with what seemed like regret. A madman…
“I’ve heard a few times that some nobles call me that.”
Benjamin licked his lips and swallowed.
This was the first time someone had called him that to his face.
“I knew my personality was filthy, but…”
“…”
“Was my personality so base that you would utter such a name in front of me?”
Benjamin lightly touched Charlotte’s ear with his finger.
He felt a flush at his fingertips.
Benjamin, who had been playing with her tangled hair, spoke softly with a faint smile.
“I often wondered whom your carelessness resembled. It was your father’s side.”
Benjamin clasped Charlotte’s shoulder with his hand.
“You dare use such a name in front of me?”
Pyotr suddenly lifted his head and cried out.
“It’s a misunderstanding, Your Highness! I was just upset that my daughter rashly…!”
A shout spreading in the quiet place.
And Benjamin’s incongruous smile.
Charlotte felt something bitter there.
Benjamin murmured softly.
“Don’t interrupt me while I’m speaking. I might cut off your tongue.”
Top Celebrity Younger Brother Bears Her Child (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: Forced to live stream romance with a top celebrity in a female-dominant world.
Yan Jin transmigrated into a brothel, with a fellow transmigrated junior beside her.
Hearing the obscene words coming from outside, the unfortunate junior covered his ears tightly, his cheeks flushed red, and whispered to comfort her, “Don’t worry, I will definitely help you escape.”
“Don’t worry, I will definitely defend your chastity.” Yan Jin looked at the flawless and delicate features of the unfortunate junior and gently comforted, “Because we have transmigrated into a female-dominant world.”

Top celebrity Yu Shu suddenly fell into a coma during a concert.
Research scientist Yan Jin fainted in the lab after working overtime.
Two people with no connection were rushed to the same hospital.
Three days later, neither of them had woken up.
Suddenly, the entire nation discovered that a live streaming app had been forcibly installed on their phones.
Upon opening it, they heard the two discussing how to escape from the brothel.
The entire internet was in an uproar.
After the two successfully escaped from the brothel, Yu Shu’s fan group rushed to make a banner and sent it to the hospital overnight.
“Big sister bravely took action to defend the chastity of our idol!”
※※※
When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
