The Runaway Female Lead Doesn't Run Away (13 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 98
Five years later, a small village on the outskirts of the capital of the Easter Kingdom.
Time had flown by like an arrow shot toward its target.
Five winters had passed, and five springs had arrived.
In the modest yard of a two-story house, bathed in the increasingly warm sunlight, a woman hung laundry.
She had ordinary brown hair, yet possessed unusually violet eyes—it was Dahlia.
With her hair tied up, Dahlia quickly sorted the laundry while watching her young son.
“Damien. Didn’t Mama tell you not to run around like that?”
The boy, once swaddled in white cloth, was now busy dashing about on his own two feet. No sooner had he finished eating than he burst into the front yard, declaring he’d catch bugs—and now, hearing Dahlia’s voice, he ran over to her side.
He beamed proudly, showing off the insect he’d caught.
“Mama! Bug!”
His face, nestled against her skirt, was already smeared with dirt.
“How long has it been since you washed up? Really…”
Dahlia paused mid-hanging the laundry and lovingly wiped her son’s dirty face with a handkerchief, picking off a leaf tangled in his hair.
Then, she gazed intently into his golden locks and jewel-like eyes.
Those colors—impossible for anyone born of the Seyear family—proved Damien wasn’t Clayton’s child.
The Male lead Always Seduces Her with His Beauty (Matriarchy)
Xin Jiao Zhou is the leader of the world’s premier sect. She has just experienced betrayal from all sides, was poisoned in an assassination attempt, and faced death squad attacks while the poison was taking effect. After finally clearing out the scum from her sect, she was drugged again while trying to detoxify.
After waking up from a night of unconsciousness, she gained a “beautiful and kind-hearted” husband.
Xin Jiao Zhou: “???”
He fell ill.
She came to see him, bringing breakfast.
As she put down the breakfast and was about to leave, his hand slipped while holding the spoon. “Clank!”
She turned around upon hearing the noise.
He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”
“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.
He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”
Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.
After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.
Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.
A certain someone when disciplining subordinates behind the scenes: “If they don’t obey, just kill them.”
What’s that? She might already have someone she cares about in her heart? A certain someone: Find out who it is, kill them, and then there won’t be anyone.
What? She met a man by the riverside? What? That man even hurt her? A certain someone: Whichever hand hurt her, chop off his entire arm.
Love at first sight without realizing it, gradually falling in love, slowly getting closer…
Family and national grudges, schemes and desires, good and evil, crime and punishment, she and he face the future together, seeking justice with passion!
