To Become Family with the Male Lead (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 48
“What should I say to Isabelle?”
All through dinner, I only thought of excuses.
But even after the meal ended, Isabelle didn’t come looking for me. Even though I sat by the sofa near the entrance like a prisoner awaiting sentencing, Isabelle never called for me.
My patience worn thin, I sent Viti to find out what she was doing in her room. Surprisingly, I was told Isabelle had already lain down in bed and fallen asleep.
Whether that was fortunate or unfortunate, I couldn’t tell.
It was time for me to sleep as well. Having soothed my anxiety and finished preparing for bed, I blew out the candle.
Just as I was about to close my eyes, I heard approaching footsteps. It felt like being struck from behind right after feeling relieved. Facing Isabelle now, without any mental preparation, was impossible.
So I pretended to be asleep.
“…….”
I heard the door open. I sensed someone entering the room. It didn’t seem like Isabelle to silently stare at me like that.
“Hey, Lise. Are you asleep?”
“I’m not.”
My tension instantly melted away. It was Roger.
When I opened my eyes, Roger’s wet hair was dripping water—he must have just washed.
Where was Madam, and why had he come alone to see me at this hour? I sat up, lit a candle, and studied Roger seated in the chair.

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!

Miioo Chapter 49They always think they are right and that their choices for their children are the right ones, but just because you are an adult and a father to your children doesn’t mean that your choices for them are always correct.
Miioo Chapter 49Isabel truly didn’t deserve what happened to her. Parents are often the reason for ruining their children’s lives; they don’t leave them the choice to make their own decisions about their lives and what suits them.
Miioo Chapter 49You may not realize it, but by doing this you are destroying their dreams and their personalities, and this will be reflected in how they raise their children in the future.

“Because I finally realized I would lose no matter what I did.”
Honestly, I don’t know what to say. Isabel is incredibly kind. She was able to breastfeed and raise the daughter of her unfaithful husband, who brought a child and presented her with a fait accompli without apologizing or even asking about her feelings. But all of this happened because of her parents. If they had supported her and encouraged her dream, none of this would have happened. Isabel is a very strong and kind woman.
