When Pride Falls at Your Feet (19 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 66
It was just the moment when Emilia was about to ask Fabio, whose eyes looked strangely conflicted, why he seemed that way. Zabeta, having knocked lightly on the slightly ajar door, was stepping inside.
“Zabeta? What’s going on?”
“Then I’ll be taking my leave now.”
Fabio and Zabeta passed each other as if exchanging places. Emilia, watching Zabeta approach, briefly turned toward the window, drawn by the refreshing sound of pouring rain.
“The rain is coming down so hard.”
“Yes, it really is. It seems better to postpone our departure until tomorrow.”
“Departure?”
Emilia blinked twice as she turned back to Zabeta. In response, Zabeta clasped her hands neatly in front of her stomach and gave a faint smile.
“His Grace has granted permission for you to return home now.”
“…Really?”
For an instant, her gaze flickered toward the door before dropping away.
“Yes. But since it’s raining so heavily today, I’ll go ahead and reserve a carriage for tomorrow.”
Earlier, when she’d asked Fabio to inquire for her, it had felt fine—but now, hearing directly from Zabeta that she could leave, her mood sank oddly.
Had she expected him to come find her if she asked? Why was she even looking for him?
Recalling her own actions just moments ago, Emilia’s fingertips trembled. Was he truly planning to abandon their contract now? Her small hands clenched tightly into fists.
Male lead reborn without memories — but he still falls for her.
The person he finds displeasing in this life turns out to be his cherished wife-master in previous life…
Xie Zhi and Fang Xianxing who had known each other for less than three days through a blind date sat in the same car in front of the civil affairs bureau. They had a disagreement and failed to get married.
Xie Zhi immediately took out his phone, slid through his contacts, and randomly selected the next marriage candidate.
The woman snatched his phone and hung up. Looking at his phone wallpaper, she awkwardly changed the subject: “An ancient painting, eh? It looks pretty good, it’s just that the person in the painting looks a bit like me.”
When he heard this, he sarcastically mocked her for being so delusional, completely unaware that, the person in front of him was the reincarnation of Wen Ru, the famous prime minister of Yuan Shun whom he most admired…
