The Price is Everything of Yours (76 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 145
“So, the pretty one’s living in the West Palace with her mother? How delightfully mischievous of the Duke.”
Adrian sighed in admiration as he received Jabel’s report.
He already knew something of Cledwin Maindlant, Duke of Maindlant. His assessment so far had been that the man was exceptionally intelligent and cold toward others.
“I’d wondered—looking like that, what would be wrong with having no woman? But it seems that bold lady is precisely the Duke’s weakness, just as I’d faintly suspected. He doesn’t even seem to care about hiding it.”
‘Appointed as advisor right after graduating from the Academy, dining together frequently, and to these people, they’re already practically married.’
Kaymil would be absolutely delighted to hear this. After all, she’d already ordered extensive investigations into the owner of the Jewel Box and demanded the item be retrieved as quickly as possible. Now, as a bonus, he’d landed the Duke’s weakness as well.
‘If I gave the order to kidnap her right this instant, my head would roll, wouldn’t it?’
Adrian, barely clinging to the very tail end of the imperial family, held a formal status undeniably lower than Cledwin’s. After all, a Duke held a rank second only to the Crown Prince. Though imperial kin were traditionally accorded respect, Cledwin didn’t seem like the sort to care about such customs.
‘Then again, his own maternal grandfather was mad enough to imprison people without trial.’
Ordinarily, such thoughts would stir a sense of crisis, but Adrian merely chuckled softly. To him—a man who truly lived exactly as his heart pleased—the monstrous Cledwin Maindlant appeared as a predictably rational being, governed entirely by sound logic.
“What about the guards?”
“They’re extremely tight. Though it seems deserted at first glance, watchful eyes are always present—there’s no chance to infiltrate.”
“Oh? Ha, ha, ha!”
Adrian’s eyes gleamed darkly. The last assassination attempt had ended with the loss of eight moons, after all. It seemed the Duke had indeed poured considerable effort into this.
“Have you learned the Marquis’s objective?”
Top Celebrity Younger Brother Bears Her Child (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: Forced to live stream romance with a top celebrity in a female-dominant world.
Yan Jin transmigrated into a brothel, with a fellow transmigrated junior beside her.
Hearing the obscene words coming from outside, the unfortunate junior covered his ears tightly, his cheeks flushed red, and whispered to comfort her, “Don’t worry, I will definitely help you escape.”
“Don’t worry, I will definitely defend your chastity.” Yan Jin looked at the flawless and delicate features of the unfortunate junior and gently comforted, “Because we have transmigrated into a female-dominant world.”

Top celebrity Yu Shu suddenly fell into a coma during a concert.
Research scientist Yan Jin fainted in the lab after working overtime.
Two people with no connection were rushed to the same hospital.
Three days later, neither of them had woken up.
Suddenly, the entire nation discovered that a live streaming app had been forcibly installed on their phones.
Upon opening it, they heard the two discussing how to escape from the brothel.
The entire internet was in an uproar.
After the two successfully escaped from the brothel, Yu Shu’s fan group rushed to make a banner and sent it to the hospital overnight.
“Big sister bravely took action to defend the chastity of our idol!”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
①Male pregnancy (highlighted)
The female lead is five years older than the male lead, and the male lead is already an adult when he appears.
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. 💔
