Everyone present couldn’t hide their astonishment.
His Second Highness has a broad-mindedness?
Is this a story from another world?
Especially for Adviser Adam, knights, and attendants who served His Second Highness, the astonishment was evident on their faces.
Adam couldn’t believe what was happening before his eyes because he was always worried that Lacogen might strike Lishi, hug her saying she liked her, or order her to kneel, but here he was, unable to believe the events unfolding before him.
The petite and beautiful woman who seemed like she would be devoured by Lacogen was gracefully walking away from the giant and cruel beast’s clutches, now displaying an elegant gait.
‘A trainer… Countess Green is a beast trainer.’
While Adam was having such thoughts, Britney was on the verge of collapsing due to her anger.
‘Why did Lacogen treat Iris so disrespectfully in comparison? What did she say? She was just a lowly bastard child living in our house, not even as good as a servant. Dirty bloodline.’
Glancing to the side, Meri also shot an angry look at Lacogen.
‘Yes, it’s probably for the best. With this, Princess Meri will hate Iris even more.’
Lishi hadn’t done anything, but for Britney, it seemed like everything that happened was because of Iris.
‘Iris, your triumphant demeanor will only last until tonight. Tonight, you…’
A sinister smile appeared on Britney’s lips.

Lacogen was guided to the largest and finest room in the western residence, but he had no time to explore the room.
Lacogen wandered back and forth in the spacious reception room, thinking about Lishi.
Grace and arrogance that didn’t crumble even in front of His Second Highness, along with a vulnerability that seemed to collapse at any moment.
He had met many beautiful women, but Lishi was the first woman like her.
She had a strange atmosphere that others, not only women but everyone, did not possess.
He wanted to have it. He wanted to make it completely his own.
This intense impulse was a first.
Although he had always found a way to get what he wanted, he couldn’t treat Lishi in the same way.
There was a completely different emotion from the urge to hold a woman, and Lacogen didn’t know the name of that emotion.
He had never felt awe for anyone until now, not even for the Emperor.
Adam, who was anxious about giving the order to bring Iris to his room right away, found Lacogen’s silent pacing in and out of the room strange, but he secretly felt relieved.
‘You won’t cause any trouble for a while, will you?’

In the darkness, Alford breathed heavily, wheezing and gasping for rough breaths.
Thinking about what would happen in a few hours, his heart raced, and he couldn’t contain his excitement.
“[Dash]Force yourself to get Iris. The Green family won’t protect a tainted Iris anymore. Moreover, with the rumors of saltation and such going around since before, they’ll be suspicious this time, even if they let it go before.”
A few nights ago, Brittany, who came late at night, whispered discreetly while handing him a letter.
“[Dash]Prepare for the party, and precious guests will come, so the main house will quiet down. Aim for that moment. And if Iris yells and gets caught, present this letter as evidence.”
Alford checked the contents of the letter.
“[Dash]Just say Iris wrote it and sent it.”
“[Dash]But won’t they quickly notice that the handwriting is different?”
“[Dash]Oh, why do you think the handwriting will be different?”
Alford treasured that letter and carried it with him.
Since entering the Green Count’s residence, he had been waiting eagerly for the moment when the main house would calm down, with the anticipation of meeting precious guests.
Alford definitely wanted to get Iris.
At first, he was only interested in the ‘Witch of Whitelow’s’ daughter.
But after the trouble with K, he wanted to make Lishi his own, seeking revenge on K. He wondered what expression K would have when he found out that Lishi belonged to him.
Thanks to the arrival of the Second Prince, as Brittany mentioned, the moment had come when the main house quieted down. Alford did not miss the opportunity and entered the main house.
A few maids and servants remained in the main house, but they were too busy preparing to welcome the Second Prince, so they didn’t pay attention to Alford.
Following Brittany’s instructions, Alford went up the stairs and headed to Lishi’s room.
Although he knocked just in case, there was no answer.
He cautiously opened the door and entered the vacant room, then opened the door to the inner bedroom.
A pleasant fragrance filled the bedroom.
There were two large wardrobes in the corner.
The bed was clearly visible.
Alford opened one of the wardrobes and entered K’s wardrobe with his clothes, closing the door.
He could see the bed through the crack in the door.
‘In a few hours, now…’
He would be lying on that bed.
With Iris.

When Lishi finished various errands and returned to her room, it was late at night.
My Arch-enemy Sealed My Memory and Said That He is My Husband
This is an incredibly captivating story that you absolutely shouldn’t miss! I’ll give a brief introduction here, and below you’ll find a detailed synopsis of the plot.
The female lead is a fierce and powerful demon king. The male lead is a once-in-a-millennium celestial lord, admired by the entire cultivation world.
They are equally matched, legendary rivals who have battled for centuries.
In the final duel, the female lead is gravely injured. The male lead saves her, seals her memories, and hides her true identity. He tells her that he is her fiancé. His entire life has been flawless—except for the one thing he never expected, never controlled, and never wanted to control: falling for his greatest enemy. She is his inner demon, his obsession.
When the female lead regains her memories, she is furious at his deception.
She makes his life a living hell.
And somehow, the male lead—possibly a total masochist—doesn’t mind at all. In fact, he’s happy she’s paying attention to him.
Yep, we’re back to my favorite trope: male lead suffering. If you love this kind of story, jump into the pit with me now!!!
Intro
Dong Xia lost her memory.
Her handsome and extremely powerful fiancé Li Qing comforted her: “It’s okay if you can’t remember. I’ll always be with you.”
Everyone thought Dong Xia’s ancestors must have burned incense to get such a perfect fiancé. He was the number one person in the immortal realm, yet he remained chaste and only loved her.
…
The day before marrying her fiancé, Dong Xia finally remembered everything.
She wasn’t suffering from memory loss at all.
Her arch-enemy had made her fake her death, destroyed her cultivation, replaced her memories, and pretended to be her deeply in love fiancé.
No wonder he said, “It’s okay if you can’t remember”!
Dong Xia laughed coldly as she pulled out her long knife: Li Qing, prepare to die 🙂
*
Li Qing, as the supreme being of the immortal realm, was the people’s shining beacon.
The only unknown stain in his life was his affection for Dong Xia, the ruler of the demon realm.
In the final battle of the war between immortals and demons, the sky collapsed and the earth shattered. The ruler of the demon realm was finally slain under the sword of the supreme being of the immortal realm, and everyone in the immortal realm applauded.
The cultivation world lost a ruler of the demon realm.
And in the back mountain of Li Qing’s cave dwelling, he secretly hid away a fiancée.
Notes:
1. The female lead is white on the outside, black on the inside, and the queen of flattery; the male lead repeatedly tests the edge of darkness, a VIP guest at the crematorium.
2. Fantasy cultivation world setting.
