Spent the First Night with the Male Lead, Thinking I Was Terminal (10 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 146
Could this truly be how livestock feel when dragged to the slaughterhouse?
Duke Herscher’s heart was utterly despondent as he headed toward the imperial palace to attend the tea party hosted by the Crown Princess.
He wished more than anything to turn his horse around right now and return to his mansion.
No—he simply wanted to fling open the door and flee to some unknown place where no one would ever find him.
But Duke Herscher knew full well what fate awaited him if he ran.
‘The moment I do that, my entire family will die.’
He forced himself to steady his anxious mind.
Everything depended on him—his house, his family, even his own future.
“What became of the houses I contacted?”
The Duke asked his aide, who had been at his side.
He had reached out to houses that had maintained close ties with the Herscher Family for a very long time or had sworn loyalty to them.
Upon hearing they would also attend this meeting, he had pleaded for their help.
Yet his aide’s expression was grim.
“No replies came at all.”
“Not even after I gave them so much money?”
My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)
A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage
Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.
In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.
As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.
Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.
She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.
“Brother, come home with me.”
I wonder what that crowd did to Lloyd. I hope they shaved his head bald 😂
Instead of kicking her out, why doesn’t he lock her up in the dungeon?
Can’t Clea just transfer it back to Airhead? She doesn’t have to break it…
