The Maid's Contract Marriage (1 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 146
“My Lady….”
The attending maid hesitantly called out to her.
She clearly had much she wished to say, yet seemed unable to bring herself to speak.
Patricia gave a faint smile, propping her chin wearily on her hand.
“What on earth has happened? I secluded myself in this villa just to live quietly, yet now Prince Klein and Lady Agnes….”
“….”
The maid offered a sorrowful smile, stealing a glance at her mistress.
Seeing Patricia’s forced attempt at composure falter, even her own resolve faded, and she let out a quiet sigh.
“…Make sure the children keep their mouths shut. He’s still my son, even if I dislike him. We can’t let him bring shame upon the family.”
“Yes, of course….”
Though it hardly needed saying, the maid added that she’d reinforce the order once more—then promptly fell silent, offering Patricia quiet solace in that shared hush.
Patricia composed herself calmly and asked,
“If there’s anything I need to know, please tell me. After all, they’re all guests who’ve come to my estate. I don’t wish to appear strange.”
“Yes, My Lady.”
The maid relayed Taylor’s words—that Iona had been afflicted with dementia and her memory was failing.
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.”
