The Runaway Female Lead Doesn't Run Away (13 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 36
At last, the morning of the birthday banquet had arrived.
Normally, the manor should have been bustling with excitement over the grand occasion awaiting the Duke and Duchess, but not today.
A few days ago, rumors had spread that the couple had a serious fight in the study, and yesterday, some noble lady had taken over the eastern wing.
As a result of these events, it had become common knowledge that Clayton now had a mistress.
The master of the estate, Duke Seyear, had taken a mistress into his home, and a huge argument with Her Ladyship over the matter had left the study in utter disarray—the incident had long since been dismissed as just another explosive marital quarrel.
Perhaps because of this, the maids helping with Dahlia’s dressing today looked unusually solemn.
It was as if they were stylists at a salon, carefully preparing a woman to attend her ex-boyfriend’s wedding.
The maids pursed their lips tightly and silently carried out their tasks.
‘Even now the atmosphere’s like this—if they find out I’m not going to the banquet, it’ll be chaos.’
Last night, Jason had already come to Dahlia to inform her that Clayton would be attending the party with Lloyd.
Judging by how cautiously he’d approached the topic while watching her reaction, the butler seemed deeply worried she might get hurt.
Unaware of just how relieved she was upon hearing the news.
‘Still, it’s a good thing. Things are proceeding exactly as planned.’
So, Dahlia was deliberately enhancing her beauty, aiming to amplify the image of a pitiful Duchess.
The more desperately she could show Lord Male Lead how much she wished to attend the banquet, the longer she’d linger in his heart.
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him
Short intro:
What she can’t stand the most is the streets full of effeminate men, especially that so-called top beauty whom she avoids at all costs.
Shen Yaoxing looks at Jiang Mingyue, who keeps approaching her with coy shyness.
Shen Yaoxing: Bro, don’t be like this, I’m really about to throw up!
She fears nothing in heaven or earth, except for him getting close to her.

At first he thought she was just using the trick of feigning indifference to attract his attention. Later, he learned that she truly despised him.
This dealt a heavy blow to Jiang Mingyue, and he vowed to make her, like everyone else, fall at his feet in worship!
