There Is No Paradise Where I Ran Away To (14 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 90
Rottermond Castle was thrown into chaos the moment the servants Edwin had sent and those who had been searching the castle’s rear appeared together.
“I clearly saw Miss Ebelline and Miss Windler heading up the forest path this afternoon.”
Shortly after Vivian and Charlotte had left the castle to be searched for, a maid who had realized everyone was frantic due to the two young ladies’ disappearance came to Susanna with this account. Right afterward, the servants who had accompanied Edwin and Gideon returned.
“It seems the two young ladies encountered misfortune on the forest path. We found the fence along the route toward the meadow broken, and His Grace has gone down the hill to rescue them.”
But something else struck Susanna from behind just as she was about to gasp in shock at this news.
“…Miss Windler is currently in the castle. We confirmed with others that she’s in the stables—but she looks very unwell…”
Charlotte, who had reportedly gone up the forest path with Vivian, had been found unconscious in the stables, and there were signs near the forest path that someone had fallen through a gap in the fence.
Putting all these facts together pointed to only one conclusion.
Charlotte Windler had pushed Vivian. Vivian must have died instantly from the fall, and overwhelmed by guilt for having killed someone, Charlotte couldn’t return and instead hid in the stables.
Consumed by rage, Susanna immediately ordered Charlotte to be brought and confined.
Edwin would forever regret having accepted Charlotte Windler as his ward. Hadn’t the offspring born of beasts’ love inevitably produced yet another victim? Susanna could vividly imagine Edwin’s anguish—Edwin, who had once declared he would die without Vivian—and despair welled within her.
Upon hearing that Charlotte and Gideon had returned to the castle, Susanna headed straight there. Servants stood guard before the tightly shut reception room. As she stepped inside, Charlotte, who had been sobbing miserably, suddenly lifted her head.
Gideon, standing beside her, rose and tried to speak, but his words fell on Susanna’s deaf ears. With long, swift strides, Susanna approached Charlotte and immediately slapped her pale cheek with all her strength.
“You devilish creature.”
Startled, Gideon stepped between them, but Susanna’s fury, boiling over to the crown of her head, could not be restrained by anything.
Male lead is a Divorced Husband
She said to him: “Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change it!”
Liu Changning transmigrated into a female cannon fodder character in a female-dominant novel.
After reading the first half of the novel’s plot, the first thing she did upon transmigration was to divorce the Pan Jinlian-style male protagonist she had just married.
She indulged herself, pretending to be ugly and poor.
But as time passed, the way that man looked at her became more and more unusual…
Liu Changning was dumbfounded: Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change!
――
This lifetime, Pei Yuanshao was rejected by the same woman twice!
The first time, she drove him away. Forced by the situation, he endured the waves of anger in his heart, yielding and humbling himself.
That person lay slanted on a rocking chair, her sallow face emotionless: “If you don’t want a divorce, go cook!”
Pei Yuanshao’s face was dark and gloomy: “You!”
The second time, after the crisis in Jinling City was resolved, the new emperor sent someone to pick him up. He turned around, stammering: “I… I have to go. If you keep me…”
That person lay on the kang bed, her back to him, as if she had long anticipated this day, crisp and clear: “Goodbye!”
Pei Yuanshao was so angry his fingers trembled: “You… you!”
The mission of family and country made him restrain himself, averting his eyes and turning to leave this broken household.
Two years later, they met again. Seeing her ethereal face, his body shook like a sieve.
“She was originally a ‘she’!”
At the Qionglin Banquet, the top scholar of the imperial examination, a talented person with exceptional speech and conduct, all the unmarried young gentlemen from aristocratic families looked at her with shy and timid eyes.
The peerless imperial official Pei Yuanshao felt the anger in his heart erupt. He pointed at the woman surrounded by the crowd at the Qionglin Banquet, his thin lips slightly curled: “Little sister, I wants that person to be the wife-master of my Mingde Prince Manor.”
