Unable To Escape (10 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 124
A way to escape from Killian.
He left the dining hall after giving Alicia her assignment.
It was a dinner that ended before it even began.
Though she’d filled her stomach with nothing but water, she didn’t feel hungry.
Back in her room, Alicia changed into comfortable clothes and shut herself in her bedroom, just as she had done at the Beinion estate.
Marisa came and went, checking on her condition, but Alicia had no energy left to feel uncomfortable under that gaze.
‘Find a way to escape?’
One might interpret his words as simply allowing Alicia to go freely, but his demeanor—turning his back without even a farewell—exuded confidence.
Did it mean no matter what method she found, it would be useless?
Alicia, who had spent the entire night sitting on her bed hugging her knees, wore a gloomy expression.
A way to escape from him?
That was something she’d constantly thought about ever since she’d turned back time.
She had tried so hard to correct her mistakes and avoid becoming entangled with him again.
Yet each time, she repeated new mistakes and kept getting tangled up with Killian once more.
What happened the time she tried fleeing south?
After Being Cheated On, She Picked Up a Treasure (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: The husband I married on a whim had been secretly in love with me for a long time.
On the day when Jun Shao finally obtained the imperial decree for her marriage, Lan Qu, the person she had admired for six years, defied the decree and ran away.
Her gentleness and devotion, her promise of a lifetime together, were all disregarded by him. Instead, he dreamed of entering the palace to serve the Emperor’s sister as a sixth-rank attendant.
News of this incident spread throughout the capital, and the alleys in front of and behind the Lan mansion were crowded with people who came to watch the commotion.
Jun Shao should have been embarrassed and angry.
But someone stepped in to protect her dignity.
The figure was in a miserable state, yet still possessed an undeniable elegance and handsomeness.
The young lord struggled to climb the wall of the Lan mansion and shouted to her, “If he won’t marry you, I will!”
So, Jun Shao took advantage of the situation and married the person.
She thought the young lord did it to save the Lan family from the crime of defying the imperial decree, but never imagined that from beginning to end, what he coveted was her.

After the wedding, Jun Shao felt like she was living in a dream.
Her Wife-master was as beautiful as a fairy in a painting, skilled in the six arts, well-versed in poetry and literature, capable of being gentle and attentive, and also grand and dignified. Most importantly, she was the only one in his heart and eyes.
Jun Shao didn’t know how Lan Shiwu, as a illegitimate son without a father and blessed with beauty, had managed to preserve his purity, recklessly escape, and use his last ounce of strength to ruin his own reputation, all because of his love for her, just to stand before her.
She could only see him gazing at her with eyes full of love, and when she bestowed a name upon him, his eyes shone like stars.
“You have come to me like a weary bird perching on a branch. I shall call you A Qi.”
It’s hard for me to picture fairies like a thing 🤔 we all imagine a little cute and tiny person with wings
Seriously what the fuck is happening right now! Another killian?
