The Maid's Contract Marriage (1 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 137
“Why is that child here?! Shouldn’t she be at the Marquis’s mansion? Does the Marquis’s household know?!”
Alvin Lorenson’s voice was thick with disbelief and anger.
“Who told you?! Did the Marchioness or the Head Maid assign her to you?!”
“It’s not like that, Father.”
Reina anxiously clutched the hem of her skirt inside the doorway of the medicine storeroom.
Taylor had sent Reina into the storeroom to look for medicinal herbs for Grandmother, but Reina couldn’t bring herself to step away from the door right away.
“You—you…! You lunatic! Was it you who took that child away?!”
His hand trembled.
Taylor’s voice was barely audible, but he probably told Doctor Lorenson that the Marquis’s household knew nothing about it and asked him to lower his voice.
Ugh, ugh. Huff. Oh dear!
Following a sigh and a groan came thudding sounds.
It was the gentle Alvin Lorenson, helplessly pounding his chest in distress.
“Don’t tell me you don’t know! You—you handed that medicine to her yourself! Do you even realize what she was doing there?!”
“……”
Reina tightly pressed her lips together.
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.

Do you dare?
Su Heng assists a divine lord in his cultivation, aiming to make him experience all the sufferings of love, so that he can attain the Great Dao.
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.

Suspicious indeed I wouldn’t put it past julius to somehow maybe be poisoning granny
“Hmm?”
I KNEW ITTTTT they had to keep granny weak so that they could control reina
some already executed,
Soo my initial guess of the empress was good?? The puppeteer was the empress? The one who put out the hit? Doesn’t it mean she knows about reina since the hit mentioned a maid?

The future looks scary and uncertain here… I said I saw no way for reina and Arthur to be together and I was proven right
Omgosh not what I expected at all… its all coming together albeit slowly
This was a good chapter which directly revealed the hidden puppeter plainly
