To The Eternal Knight (2 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 98
“How can that possibly count as evidence…?!”
Helen cried out as if shrieking in despair. In the icy current that felt as though it was slicing her flesh, all she could do was deny Nerea’s words. If she were to yield now to those eyes resembling Lilian’s…
Her heart sank heavily. The image of her daughter behind her was seared into her eyes. Her precious daughter, filled with worry and anxiety, must not bear any further disgrace.
“Why blame me for the fact that your body weakened and your mind suffered after enduring hardships on the battlefield, Count!”
But Helen’s action, born from the edge of desperation, was a clear misstep. The nobles’ gazes turned cold.
Most of the nobles present here had witnessed, ten years ago, how Nerea had collapsed, trembling uncontrollably.
“That’s why it always seemed strange—how could you send your daughter, who barely survived the battlefield and suffered seizures, off alone to that remote village of Alphern?”
“Me too. That day, Count Esteban also looked rather bewildered, as if he’d never seen such a seizure before…”
Whispers among the nobles grew louder, layering upon each other. Helen, panicked, looked around frantically, but memories from ten years ago had already been romanticized and distorted.
Soon enough, several voices emerged openly calling Helen a cunning, heartless stepmother who drove out her husband’s legitimate heir.
Nerea watched it all impassively. Countless days flashed through her mind simultaneously.
Helen, once thought of as her mother’s dear friend, whose smiling face had seemed so kind.
Helen, who had stolen everything from her and handed it all to Brienna.
And finally, Helen, who had tried to kill her.
Helen’s fate was to be decided right here today.

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.
