The Duke Only Needs My Child (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 90
By the time the two stepped into the backyard, night had fully fallen. Only the lamps scattered here and there chased away the darkness, setting a pleasant mood.
As they walked down the garden path, the boisterous noise gradually grew louder.
At its end, the Delmarque household members had already gathered, having finished preparations for their evening picnic—servants and knights alike.
“You’ve arrived just in time. We’ve only just finished grilling the meat.”
Mason guided the pair toward the center of the gathering.
There, a roaring fire was roasting venison. Blair froze mid-step upon spotting it.
Even though she had fully recovered her memories of the accident, her fear of fire still lingered.
Especially now—the flames before her were incomparably larger than the candles she’d been practicing with, intensifying her dread even further.
Noticing Blair standing transfixed, unable to tear her eyes from the fire, Herdin waved his hand before her face to break her focus.
“It’s alright.”
His low voice settled gently against her ear as his large hand clasped hers.
Blair slowly lifted her head and met his eyes—deep blue like a tranquil lake. Just looking into them, her tension began to melt away as if by magic.
Just then, Ruth approached abruptly, holding a skewer laden with grilled meat.
“Here! Your Grace, my lady—please have some. The first bite should always go to you two.”
Only then did Blair realize why the knights had been staring at them like ravenous beasts, and she burst into laughter.
Male lead is a Divorced Husband
She said to him: “Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change it!”
Liu Changning transmigrated into a female cannon fodder character in a female-dominant novel.
After reading the first half of the novel’s plot, the first thing she did upon transmigration was to divorce the Pan Jinlian-style male protagonist she had just married.
She indulged herself, pretending to be ugly and poor.
But as time passed, the way that man looked at her became more and more unusual…
Liu Changning was dumbfounded: Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change!

This lifetime, Pei Yuanshao was rejected by the same woman twice!
The first time, she drove him away. Forced by the situation, he endured the waves of anger in his heart, yielding and humbling himself.
That person lay slanted on a rocking chair, her sallow face emotionless: “If you don’t want a divorce, go cook!”
Pei Yuanshao’s face was dark and gloomy: “You!”
The second time, after the crisis in Jinling City was resolved, the new emperor sent someone to pick him up. He turned around, stammering: “I… I have to go. If you keep me…”
That person lay on the kang bed, her back to him, as if she had long anticipated this day, crisp and clear: “Goodbye!”
Pei Yuanshao was so angry his fingers trembled: “You… you!”
The mission of family and country made him restrain himself, averting his eyes and turning to leave this broken household.
Two years later, they met again. Seeing her ethereal face, his body shook like a sieve.
“She was originally a ‘she’!”
At the Qionglin Banquet, the top scholar of the imperial examination, a talented person with exceptional speech and conduct, all the unmarried young gentlemen from aristocratic families looked at her with shy and timid eyes.
The peerless imperial official Pei Yuanshao felt the anger in his heart erupt. He pointed at the woman surrounded by the crowd at the Qionglin Banquet, his thin lips slightly curled: “Little sister, I wants that person to be the wife-master of my Mingde Prince Manor.”

Blair holding herself together in front of Katrina is honestly painful to read. The contrast between Katrina’s fake warmth and Blair’s trauma is so unsettling. And the morning sickness hint? Things are about to get even more dangerous. Mikhail showing up in disguise just adds to the suspense—feels like everything is building toward a major turning point.

The Duchess loves the Duke.
Truly, Although I do understand her point but his behaviour is not the one to be forgiven because in this life as well this fool has not said that he loved her
Yet, faced with Katrina’s warm smile—as if the kidnapping had never occurred—Bla
It must be very painful for Blair; she’s already felt what a mother’s love is, and not receiving that love from her own mother must be awful! 😔
“Please decide as soon as possible.”
I hope she would take Mikhail’s hand now. Technically the conditions are met. She was able to recover her memories. She can definitely flee now

I don’t like the emperor at all… A puppet of his mother and a brainless idiot
