The Maid's Contract Marriage (1 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 96
While the Marchioness hurriedly prepared to receive their guest, the Marquis went to find Rembrandt.
Upon hearing that Duchess Pearl had arrived at the estate, Rembrandt had already finished his preparations and was waiting for the Marquis.
“Did your search yield any progress? Have you found any clues regarding Lady Christina’s whereabouts?”
“…….”
Taking the Marquis’s silence as an answer, Rembrandt gave him a solemn look.
“……This is serious. She must be safe.”
“…….”
Rembrandt stared at the Marquis, who couldn’t bring himself to speak.
“Though I know you’re deeply troubled, isn’t Lady Christina’s safety the most important matter right now? Even if it causes a stir, I believe we should prioritize finding her safely.”
“…….”
Rembrandt continued.
“Even if it worries you, why not first inform the Duchess and shift to a public investigation? That way, I could assist you more actively—and perhaps even gain the Duchess’s help.”
“…….”
Rembrandt’s gaze drifted toward the table.
Following his eyes, the Marquis noticed a single canvas resting on the table.
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.”

Heyyy now…. I’m side eying this story now. If it turns out to be reina I’m going to be disappointed. I count this as lazy writing because why would she go back to where people from julius might see her
This was a really good chapter that explained the complexity of the rela between reina and Taylor. I think it painted a really good colour
How is this going to go… time skip? Amnesia?? Complete blindness??
