The Price is Everything of Yours (76 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 125
“Where have you been, Catherine?”
Catherine, returning from the western palace, ran into the Marquis right in front of her room.
‘Lucky bastard, just idling about.’
Then again, why would someone like him—who’d been born into an enormous estate—need to work hard like she did? Catherine felt a fresh wave of irritation.
All he’d ever done was be born a grand noble and idly raise children. Yet, by sheer luck, everyone around him had granted him the right to use whomever they deemed fit to become Grand Duchess—first the Former Grand Duchess, now Catherine… hiding behind capable women and acting as if he were the one achieving greatness.
Catherine smiled coldly and mocked him.
“You really have it good.”
“What?”
The Marquis jumped in surprise, eyes wide. Catherine found his immediate reaction oddly satisfying. It felt cleansing.
“I’ve just come back from drinking tea with that Trude woman at the western palace. What were you doing, Your Grace? Wandering around here sulking about how the locals don’t treat you properly, weren’t you?”
Her voice wasn’t especially loud, but it carried clearly enough for nearby listeners to hear every word. The Marquis panicked and glanced around. Then, dragging Catherine by the arm, he forced his way into her room.
Bang. The door slammed shut. The Marquis hissed in anger.
“What’s the meaning of this? Have you lost your mind? Cledwin will be back tomorrow—do you really want to ruin everything we’ve built up until now?”
Wasn’t this precisely the moment Catherine should be working her hardest to achieve her goal?
She couldn’t possibly be unaware of how close they were to success. The Marquis found it odd—suspicion crept into his mind.
Cold Male Lead Became My Clingy Husband (Female-Dominant)
Feng Bai Su transmigrated into a matriarchal novel, becoming the sister of the female protagonist and the Seventh Princess of the Feng Ling Kingdom.
After working herself to death in her previous life, finally reincarnating as a princess, she only wanted to be a lazy fish who could eat, sleep, and play.
Until she met the male protagonist from the book, Wei Jing Mo, and he took a liking to her!
Wei Jing Mo is the top young man in Feng Ling City, talented in both appearance and ability, from a prestigious family, with a cold and otherworldly appearance, a figure like the bright moon in the hearts of noble ladies. It was thought that only the most powerful and talented noble lady in Feng Ling City would be worthy of such a brilliant young man. Who knew that this young gentleman would secretly admire the infamous Seventh Princess?
Short scene 1:
Feng Bai Su looked at the young man crying like a pear blossom in the rain before her, and couldn’t help but doubt her life.
Wasn’t the male lead described as a cold and otherworldly figure in the book?
Then who was this poor little thing crying with swollen red eyes and tear-stained face?
Short scene 2:
Wei Jing Mo stared intently at Feng Bai Su who was about to go out, wanting to say, “Be careful on the road.”
Before he could speak, Feng Bai Su suddenly bent down and bit his cheek.
Her peach blossom eyes were full of disdain: “Tsk! You’re so clingy!”
Wei Jing Mo: “…”
A talented fox spirit female lead with a flirtatious appearance but actually abstinent VS A cold-looking but actually naive and clingy little jealous male lead
The male lead being so proud of his wife is honestly adorable, even when he gets jealous.
And the female lead is so elegant and beautiful—I can’t wait to see this scene illustrated
Haha, did the ML really just say that to the FL? He’s so cute when he gets a little jealous.
Can’t wait for next chapter
The ML is so considerate of his wife. He treats her with so much care and gentleness, even when she doesn’t say a word—he just understands her. He’s honestly so perfect, I can’t 😭
I really hope the FL can overcome these painful feelings soon. I can’t bear to watch her suffer this much. 💔
