The Ghost Lady Of The Duke's Family (20 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 62
[Young Master was calling out to Madam into thin air…]
[…]
[He shed tears, begging Her not to leave. Given that His gaze was fixed upon empty space rather than anyone present, I suspected He might be seeing things…]
Lutis recalled the first time he’d heard those words from a servant.
Having experienced something similar himself, that day had left him suspicious of such an uncanny coincidence.
Afterward, the entire household staff was replaced, and Adrian began to be called by his given name.
Since the protective magic that had hidden Adrian in the annex had already broken, there was no longer any reason to keep him there.
“……”
In truth, he had expected the child to resent him—for locking him away in a cramped building for years without ever allowing him to step outside.
Even after rushing back immediately upon learning the magic had failed and ending the war swiftly, he had avoided meeting the boy for precisely that reason.
He hadn’t possessed the courage to face the moment Adrian’s face—so much like Aeli’s—would turn toward him with contempt.
Out of fear, he had summoned Adrian home yet still avoided seeing him. And yet…
[No, no! Don’t go!]
How could such a small life be so utterly pure?
He had resolved himself to be content even if Adrian resented him or merely watched him from afar.
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.

Only after being chased down from the heavens by the divine lord, confined and completely possessed by him, does she realize how successful she has been.

It turns out he actually hears her voice, I’m surprised.
