Trapped in the Mad Duke's Snare (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 70
Cassis thought he was dreaming as he watched Adeline sobbing right before his eyes.
‘So now you’re appearing in my dreams too.’
And rightly so—Adeline had no reason to be here in Cologne.
Hadn’t he come alone, leaving her behind in the capital despite her insistence on accompanying him?
Cassis assumed the scene before him was a hallucination brought on by his high fever.
He had been hovering between life and death for two full days after contracting the plague. With a fever nearing 40 degrees Celsius, merely keeping his eyes open was a struggle.
Yet these hallucinations weren’t entirely unpleasant—he got to see his beloved wife.
Perhaps because he was weakened by pain, a faint smile graced Cassis’s lips.
“Del.”
Cassis softly called out to Adeline, who was weeping before him.
Perhaps due to his illness, his voice came out too weakly; Adeline didn’t hear him and only cried harder.
Even if this was a dream, watching her wail so uncontrollably pained his heart.
It felt as though Adeline would truly cry out just like this if she ever found him in such a state—it felt so real it ached.
In this dream, he wanted to tell Adeline he was fine and she could stop crying.
“…Adeline.”
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.”

One-sentence summary: What goes around comes around, taking turns in the crematorium
It wouldn’t surprise me if the crown prince stabs the empress some day.
Wow, I thought these two had made progress. I’m a bit surprised by the Duke’s reaction but he has been ill and chronic illness can affect your thought process.
I get the feeling Severus isn’t what he appears to be. Perhaps like his namesake?
