The Duke Only Needs My Child (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 144
At the very moment I was ready to let go of all attachments to life and abandon everything, the voice I longed so desperately to hear echoed in my mind.
“Come back safely, without getting hurt.”
That was the promise we made before parting.
Herdin, who had just pressed a dagger to his own heart, froze at the sudden memory of that voice.
Not a single promise I made to her had I ever properly kept.
Not the vow from my past life—to attend Asiel’s birthday—nor the promise that I’d grant her a divorce once the incident at the Empress’s palace was resolved.
I had believed every one of them was for her sake.
That it would be better to resolve everything, even if late, and still make it to Asiel’s birthday.
That staying by my side would be better for her than becoming a secondary wife in another noble’s household.
Now I understand.
What you truly wanted was never any of that.
It was merely my selfishness, forcing my way through under the guise of loving you.
Herdin twisted the dagger aimed at his heart and drove it into his own palm instead.

Gritting his teeth against the agony, Herdin endured.

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.]
①Male pregnancy (highlighted)
The female lead is five years older than the male lead, and the male lead is already an adult when he appears.

For keeping your promise to me.

I’m guessing he survived, otherwise this novel would take a very grim turn, but then again. Wasn’t that what she wanted?? To be free from??
