When The Silver Bell Of Charlotte's Pharmacy Rings (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 65
Seeing the stake shatter before their very eyes, not only Charlotte but even Matiel couldn’t hide his shock and gaped wide-eyed.
He had never seen such a being before—nor had he ever imagined he would.
The vampire, its tongue flicking out crimson as if soaked in blood, grinned like a jester and spoke.
“A smooth meal quickly grows tiresome, but with someone interrupting, one can act with even greater passion. Isn’t that right, little Lotti?”
Charlotte’s eyes widened in astonishment. At the same moment, a rustling sound like a broad curtain fluttering reached her ears.
“Will you truly surpass your father?”
The vampire’s final words sounded muffled and distant, as if echoing from far away.
Charlotte’s knees gave out, and she collapsed right there. The moment Matiel caught her and pulled her into his arms, her barely clinging consciousness slipped away into darkness.

Charlotte regained awareness inside the hotel. The sheets against her cheek felt oddly damp.
She bolted upright in panic, recalling the pit where Anzo Hedges’ coffin had been buried—only to realize it had been a hallucination when she spotted Matiel sitting in a chair, watching her.
“You’ve slept a long time.”
Matiel spoke briefly, his tone carrying an unmistakable hint of relief.
“What happened?”
At Charlotte’s question, Matiel let out a short, quiet sigh—”Hmm.”
Male lead is a Divorced Husband
She said to him: “Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change it!”
Liu Changning transmigrated into a female cannon fodder character in a female-dominant novel.
After reading the first half of the novel’s plot, the first thing she did upon transmigration was to divorce the Pan Jinlian-style male protagonist she had just married.
She indulged herself, pretending to be ugly and poor.
But as time passed, the way that man looked at her became more and more unusual…
Liu Changning was dumbfounded: Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change!

This lifetime, Pei Yuanshao was rejected by the same woman twice!
The first time, she drove him away. Forced by the situation, he endured the waves of anger in his heart, yielding and humbling himself.
That person lay slanted on a rocking chair, her sallow face emotionless: “If you don’t want a divorce, go cook!”
Pei Yuanshao’s face was dark and gloomy: “You!”
The second time, after the crisis in Jinling City was resolved, the new emperor sent someone to pick him up. He turned around, stammering: “I… I have to go. If you keep me…”
That person lay on the kang bed, her back to him, as if she had long anticipated this day, crisp and clear: “Goodbye!”
Pei Yuanshao was so angry his fingers trembled: “You… you!”
The mission of family and country made him restrain himself, averting his eyes and turning to leave this broken household.
Two years later, they met again. Seeing her ethereal face, his body shook like a sieve.
“She was originally a ‘she’!”
At the Qionglin Banquet, the top scholar of the imperial examination, a talented person with exceptional speech and conduct, all the unmarried young gentlemen from aristocratic families looked at her with shy and timid eyes.
The peerless imperial official Pei Yuanshao felt the anger in his heart erupt. He pointed at the woman surrounded by the crowd at the Qionglin Banquet, his thin lips slightly curled: “Little sister, I wants that person to be the wife-master of my Mingde Prince Manor.”

To be honest, Tae Mi is my favorite character in this novel.
Wow that’s grotesque. I didn’t think this novel was going to be so gorey
