The End Of The Special Contract Marriage (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 46
Oscar stared at his mother with a look that clearly asked what on earth she meant. But the Duchess only offered a meaningful smile.
‘There’s no better place than the Hunting Festival to carry out something perilously dangerous!’
After all, no matter what happened, it could always be dismissed as an accident.
She had already prepared a plan to eliminate Damian and his wife during this very opportunity.
She had even hired a special mage and arranged a scheme to lure them into a remote, sparsely populated area where an accident could easily occur—so she had nothing left to worry about.
‘This time, I’ll finally be able to get rid of those thorns in my side once and for all.’
The Duchess patted her son’s shoulder with an unusually gentle expression and said,
“So just place within the top three, Oscar. Damian certainly won’t make it into that ranking anyway.”
“Oh, all right.”
Though he hadn’t received a detailed explanation, Oscar nodded vaguely. He figured his parents must have prepared everything thoroughly so he wouldn’t be treated as less worthy than his younger brother.
“My dear son, go and come back safely! Don’t get hurt. Be careful, all right?”
“Yes, yes.”
Oscar gave a casual reply and walked away from his mother toward the forest. Though his departure was considerably late, he felt no sense of urgency.
He kept glancing over his shoulder repeatedly, and the moment his mother was out of sight, he immediately stopped.
‘Hmm. If Damian fails to win no matter what he tries, do I really need to exert myself?’
My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)
A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage
Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.
In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.
As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.
Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.
She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.
“Brother, come home with me.”
