As per Riena’s request, Cassel returned early that day.

“I apologize for not telling you sooner. I was planning to inform you once the evidence became clearer, but I didn’t expect James Cutler to confess first.”

He apologized as soon as he saw Riena. Riena, who had intended to confront him, calmed down at his words.

“No, it’s alright. I heard from Leo that you did it for my sake. To be honest, I did resent you for not telling me sooner after reading the newspaper, but I understood that you had your reasons.”

Cassel’s hand gently caressed Riena’s cheek. He carefully examined her complexion.

Sensing his intention, Riena forced a smile.

“I’m fine. It would be a lie to say I wasn’t shocked, but I’m holding up well. I’ve endured well so far, so I can’t collapse here like this.”

She took a deep breath.

“So, what do you plan to do next?”

“I intend to reveal the fact that Johannes Belliard was the mastermind. We’ve already placed people around James Cutler’s family, so we’ll know if someone from Johannes’ side approaches them.”

“I see.”

“So while you take time to compose yourself…”

“No.”

Riena firmly interrupted him.

“I’ve been thinking while waiting for you.”

“…?”

“I realized I’ve been doing too little. I set out to find my father’s killer, but I’ve been too complacent in my actions.”

“You don’t need to worry about that since I’m taking care of it.”

“No. I can’t leave it all to you.”

Cassel tried to argue, but Riena stopped him, shaking her head.

“Of course, I don’t mean I’ll do anything dangerous. To be honest, there’s no way I could do what you can’t.”

“Then?”

“I’ll try my best within my capabilities.”

Riena honestly told him about sending a letter to Anaiss.

“I told Her Highness that I’m well now and would like to see her. I haven’t received a reply yet, but I think she’ll gladly agree.”

“Her Highness the Princess…?”

“Yes. I heard that the Belliard family is currently actively supporting His Highness the Prince and is wary of Her Highness the Princess. In other words, she’s their biggest obstacle.”

“That’s correct.”

“If it’s alright with you, I’d like to request Her Highness’ cooperation.”

Cassel was silent for a moment. Riena waited quietly for his answer.

If he said he didn’t want her to, she planned not to do it. No matter the situation, Cassel was the most important to Riena, and since she would be using his family’s backing to deal with the Princess, she intended to respect his opinion at any time.

“Even if Her Highness steps in, it may not be particularly helpful.”

“I know. But it’s about broadening our options.”

After thinking a bit more, Cassel soon nodded.

“If that is your wish, then do so.”

“Really? Thank you.”

“But promise me you won’t do anything dangerous.”

“Yes, I promise.”

Riena nodded and immediately changed the subject.

“By the way, did you look further into Jonathan Percy? It’s not easy to persuade Bianca. She’s been obedient so far, but if we keep her from going out, I think she’ll sneak out to meet Jonathan Percy.”

“I was going to tell you about that, but the sudden incident delayed the conversation.”

As if realizing belatedly that Riena was standing, Cassel guided her to a chair.

“It seems your concern was correct. I confirmed that Jonathan Percy is close with Johannes Belliard. It appears they often crossed paths while serving in the knighthood.”

“I knew it…!”

Riena clenched her fists tightly.

“Since Mother won’t move as he wants, he’s trying to use Bianca? If Bianca hadn’t honestly told me she met that man, we might not have known.”

“Yes. That’s truly fortunate.”

“But I don’t know how to explain it to Bianca. Even if we say Jonathan Percy is suspicious, she won’t listen at all.”

“I have an idea.”

Riena’s head shot up.

“What is it?”

“We persuade Jonathan Percy the other way around. We make him directly tell Lady Bianca that he’s lost interest in her.”

“That’s a good method. At first, he was fond of her, but since they haven’t seen each other for a while, it wouldn’t be strange for his feelings to have cooled. Of course, Bianca will complain to me a bit…”

Just thinking about dealing with Bianca’s hysteria made her frown.

“But I think that’s the best way. Can we persuade Jonathan Percy though?”

“Yes, there’s a way.”

“Then I’ll leave it to you.”

Riena hesitated for a moment before hugging Cassel. It had been a few days since she had shown affection first.

After discussing the letter, there had been an odd, distant atmosphere between them. Riena couldn’t bring herself to approach Cassel first with her mixed feelings, and he also couldn’t bring himself to approach her first.

However, after thinking it over the past few days, Riena concluded that the letter didn’t matter much.

She didn’t want to deny Cassel’s efforts for her sake now.

“I’m always grateful. You know I love you a lot, right?”

Cassel, who had been stiff, hugged her waist tightly with one arm.

“I love you a lot too, Ria.”

“I hope all these complicated matters are resolved soon. After the harsh winter passes, a warm spring will come, right?”

She lifted her head and gave Cassel a peck on the chin.

“Yes, I’m sure it will.”

“I’m already looking forward to it. I’ve dreamed of a grand and beautiful wedding since I was young.”

At the sudden topic, Cassel’s body tensed up again.

Riena looked back on her relationship with Cassel, which she hadn’t had a chance to revisit due to her revenge.

“You know, Cass, our relationship started as a contract at first. You said you’d take care of me until everything was resolved. So the method we chose was marriage. On the condition that we’d divorce and go our separate ways once I could be independent.”

“…We did.”

Cassel’s voice was gloomy as he answered.

“But is that condition still valid?”

“…What?”

Cassel didn’t understand the words immediately and slightly furrowed his brows. Riena kissed his chin again.

“I mean, do you still intend to divorce me?”

“…?”

“Revenge for my father is important, but I felt we need to re-establish our relationship. It’s a bit ambiguous right now.”

“Was my love for you lacking? If so, I’ll express it more…”

“No, it’s already enough now. To be honest, it seems a bit excessive.”

Riena blushed, recalling the nights she spent with Cassel.

The first time they spent the night together, Cassel was very polite and cautious. He was so afraid that his superior strength might hurt Riena that he couldn’t even touch her properly.

The next day, he even fretted over the marks left on her body.

However, as the days went by, he became bolder. Perhaps he realized he couldn’t hurt Riena to this extent, or maybe he couldn’t control his feelings for her.

In any case, he would drive her to the point where she would beg him to stop, completely exhausted. It was literally “excessive” affection.

It wasn’t just physical communication. He would endlessly whisper sweet words and love to her as she fell asleep in his arms.

How could she doubt Cassel’s heart like that?

But Cassel seemed fixated on a strange part.

“It was excessive…? If you disliked that…”

“No, I didn’t dislike it. Rather, I liked… it.”

Riena’s face turned even redder.

“If I really disliked it, I wouldn’t have accepted you like that. Anyway, that’s not what I meant. The immediate love is important, but future plans are important too.”

Riena kissed his lips this time.

“I want to be with you for life. I want to have an ordinary family like other couples. Supporting each other and also…”

Riena bit her lip slightly before continuing.

“Having a child that resembles both of us.”

Cassel’s eyes widened.

“I want to teach our child the love I received from my father.”

Riena nuzzled her cheek against Cassel’s stiff chest as if acting cute.

“So what I’m saying is, I don’t want to part with you. Even when everything is over and I can be independent, I want to be with you. As your lover and as your wife.”

“…”

“What about you?”

There was no answer from Cassel for a while. Riena became anxious at his silence.

To be honest, she thought that if she confessed her true feelings, Cassel would tell her he felt the same before she even finished speaking.

But this long silence…

Could it be that Cassel had never seriously thought about a future with her?

My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)

A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage

Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.

In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.

As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.

Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.

She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.

“Brother, come home with me.”
