The Duke Stole Everything (1 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 165
The engagement ceremony with Darhan Bridend was right around the corner.
Arisbyan, who had seized control of the Marquisate including the Knocaf Marquisate, believed it was only a matter of time before she reclaimed the glory of her days in Krianet.
[Let us postpone the engagement party.]
This was the announcement Darhan made upon returning from the nobles’ council.
She had already persuaded the Empress to secure the Imperial Palace banquet hall and sent out invitations to all the nobles.
To suddenly delay the engagement party when everything was already prepared—
Yet her opinion held no weight in this decision.
[His Highness the Crown Prince declared that the Imperial Palace banquet hall cannot be granted for the engagement party of a mere noble.]
[But Her Majesty the Empress has already given her permission.]
[At this moment, there is no way to oppose the justification presented by the future sovereign of the throne—to host a welcoming banquet for the Rashibi Kingdom’s envoy delegation.]
Not even the Empress could intervene.
[Moreover, it seems Geddes Knocaf has aligned himself with Grand Duke Gwendhill.]
Arisbyan reflexively gripped the hem of her dress.
Who was Grand Duke Gwendhill, after all?
Was he not the very one who set fire to the Krianet royal palace and burned Princess Arisbyan of Krianet to death?
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.”
