The Credentials of a Couple (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 73
“Indeed, our Marchioness is truly exceptional. She turned the noisy public opinion upside down in an instant.”
“…….”
“Of course, it might not be welcome news for someone.”
Luzean closed the newspaper he had been reading and lifted his head. Opposite him, Margaret sat demurely, her hands clasped over her belly.
“……Are you going to abandon me?”
Margaret’s eyes, fixed on the newspaper headline, trembled.
Though the third-rate tabloids spreading every kind of gossip hardly suited the noble Imperial Palace, they circulated secretly among the nobility. Gossip and rumors delighted people’s eyes and ears regardless of social status.
Especially recently, the Marchioness Crayton, whose whereabouts had been mysterious, had naturally become a frequent topic of discussion.
Rumors had swirled—that she had eloped with Duke Pierne, that she was separated from Marquess Crayton—but the revelation that she was actually pregnant marked a new turning point.
If the child was born safely—and if it was a boy—so much would change.
Merely by being born, the child would inherit Crayton’s vast fortune, and everyone would scramble to win favor with that tiny life.
“Do you really think I would do that?”
Luzean smiled. But Margaret couldn’t bring herself to meet his gaze and lowered her head.
Bake’s wife was Liviana. No matter how unfair it seemed, her own child was illegitimate and inevitably ranked beneath Liviana’s. The calculating Emperor couldn’t possibly be unaware of this fact.
“Don’t worry. I’ll keep my promise.”

The Male lead Always Seduces Her with His Beauty (Matriarchy)
Xin Jiao Zhou is the leader of the world’s premier sect. She has just experienced betrayal from all sides, was poisoned in an assassination attempt, and faced death squad attacks while the poison was taking effect. After finally clearing out the scum from her sect, she was drugged again while trying to detoxify.
After waking up from a night of unconsciousness, she gained a “beautiful and kind-hearted” husband.
Xin Jiao Zhou: “???”
He fell ill.
She came to see him, bringing breakfast.
As she put down the breakfast and was about to leave, his hand slipped while holding the spoon. “Clank!”
She turned around upon hearing the noise.
He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”
“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.
He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”
Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.
After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.
Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.
A certain someone when disciplining subordinates behind the scenes: “If they don’t obey, just kill them.”
What’s that? She might already have someone she cares about in her heart? A certain someone: Find out who it is, kill them, and then there won’t be anyone.
What? She met a man by the riverside? What? That man even hurt her? A certain someone: Whichever hand hurt her, chop off his entire arm.
Love at first sight without realizing it, gradually falling in love, slowly getting closer…
Family and national grudges, schemes and desires, good and evil, crime and punishment, she and he face the future together, seeking justice with passion!
