The Duke Only Needs My Child (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 48
Blair seized the opportunity without hesitation, slipping out of his arms and heading toward the greenhouse. She didn’t even glance back at him once.
If she turned around—if their eyes met—she had a premonition that he would devour her whole. Thump-thump, her startled heart pounded.
Fortunately, he didn’t follow her. Noticing this, Blair’s pace gradually slowed.
Now completely alone, Blair gently touched the spot on the back of her neck where his lips had been.
“…It’s hot.”
The skin his lips had brushed felt strangely burning.
With a bewildered expression, Blair kept fiddling with that spot until the sensation finally faded.

Time flew swiftly, and before she knew it, the day of the banquet had arrived.
As the maids hurried off to finish last-minute preparations, Blair, left alone in her bedroom, turned to the mirror to examine the back of her neck.
Fortunately, the mark Herdin had left had faded to near invisibility.
Blair had first noticed the mark the morning after the painter’s visit, while getting dressed.
“Milady, wouldn’t it be better to wear your hair down today?”
Melly, who was brushing Blair’s hair, asked cautiously. When Blair, unaware of the mark on her neck, inquired why, Melly stammered shyly, avoiding a direct answer.
Only then did Blair realize Herdin had left a mark on the back of her neck.
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!

Perhaps it was the wine, but for some reason, she felt like laughing.
My princess now has become so strong that she can give perfect reply without getting hurt..she is done with that
At least, not with his child.
Oh i wish. Any child that wasnt born from your seed would be blessed because it doesnt hold your filth
"Why should I listen to you? Everyone has the right to love freely, and I don't
Yes everyone I have the right to love freely, but he’s a married man and can’t love freely so why should you love someone who doesn’t love back, does it make sense?
