To Those For Whom Even Regret Is A Luxury (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 20
Sophie still looked utterly bewildered, but Wilhelm’s expression quietly hardened.
It was naturally the fault of the heads of the house who inherited the family that their fortunes had rapidly declined right after Grandfather’s passing.
Yet what showed clearly on Wilhelm’s face was unmistakable guilt.
I let out a slight sigh and drove the final nail in.
“Marquis Pedegrin and Elena are committing adultery. And my brother is deliberately turning a blind eye to it.”
“…My lady. Is this truly so?”
The old butler’s face stiffened in shock—he must have only harbored vague suspicions until now, or perhaps known nothing at all.
I slowly nodded.
“Marquis Pedegrin intends to swallow up the Lopez family through marriage to me. My brother won’t care what happens to the house as long as he benefits himself, so before long, the Marquis will become the de facto head of the family.”
I spoke while staring straight at Wilhelm.
This wasn’t speculation—it was fact. It was exactly what had happened over the past five years.
My calm tone lent it all the more credibility, and Wilhelm’s eyes slowly widened.
Ever since hearing about Lucas and Elena, Sophie had turned deathly pale, as if about to faint.
“I have no intention of being manipulated by such deceit any longer. That’s why I’ve decided to marry His Grace the Duke. But I’m not running away.”
I turned firmly to face the two of them.

My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
