The Dead Villainess Is Pregnant With The Male Lead's Child (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 22
“Why is this person acting like this? As if he’s never once considered breaking off the engagement? Honestly, he should be happy—that’d be normal. If this is acting, he’s an incredible actor.”
Veronica calmly gathered her thoughts and spoke.
“There’s no need to pretend it’s nothing. I understand everything.”
“…….”
“I want to build a marriage… a new family… with someone who loves me and whom I love. And that person… isn’t you, Lord Killion.”
“How can you be so certain of that?”
She thought she saw a flash of blue lightning in Killion’s eyes.
“Well….”
She couldn’t possibly say, “Because I read it in the novel,” so Veronica pressed her lips tightly shut.
“After all, you’ll eventually fall in love with Evangelina, not me.”
Unaware of her inner thoughts, Killion slowly stepped closer.
They stood so near their shoes nearly touched.
“You said you don’t like me. That I’m not the one who truly loves you… Truthfully, I’m still not sure myself. I don’t know what’s what….”
“…….”
Veronica couldn’t understand what exactly Killion meant by not knowing what was what.
After Being Cheated On, She Picked Up a Treasure (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: The husband I married on a whim had been secretly in love with me for a long time.
On the day when Jun Shao finally obtained the imperial decree for her marriage, Lan Qu, the person she had admired for six years, defied the decree and ran away.
Her gentleness and devotion, her promise of a lifetime together, were all disregarded by him. Instead, he dreamed of entering the palace to serve the Emperor’s sister as a sixth-rank attendant.
News of this incident spread throughout the capital, and the alleys in front of and behind the Lan mansion were crowded with people who came to watch the commotion.
Jun Shao should have been embarrassed and angry.
But someone stepped in to protect her dignity.
The figure was in a miserable state, yet still possessed an undeniable elegance and handsomeness.
The young lord struggled to climb the wall of the Lan mansion and shouted to her, “If he won’t marry you, I will!”
So, Jun Shao took advantage of the situation and married the person.
She thought the young lord did it to save the Lan family from the crime of defying the imperial decree, but never imagined that from beginning to end, what he coveted was her.
*
After the wedding, Jun Shao felt like she was living in a dream.
Her Wife-master was as beautiful as a fairy in a painting, skilled in the six arts, well-versed in poetry and literature, capable of being gentle and attentive, and also grand and dignified. Most importantly, she was the only one in his heart and eyes.
Jun Shao didn’t know how Lan Shiwu, as a illegitimate son without a father and blessed with beauty, had managed to preserve his purity, recklessly escape, and use his last ounce of strength to ruin his own reputation, all because of his love for her, just to stand before her.
She could only see him gazing at her with eyes full of love, and when she bestowed a name upon him, his eyes shone like stars.
“You have come to me like a weary bird perching on a branch. I shall call you A Qi.”
