Chương 222: Su Luxi (21)

That night, the female lead whose thoughts had been seen through tried to hypnotize the Wade Dukedom's heir to make him sign a contract saying he was willing to be wed to her. The girl had an outburst before that, spitting out her desire to be freed of the crown prince's grasp. Yet at the same time, she still wanted to retain her noble status and take care of her household. 

Let's say it was not entirely out of greed, but pragmatism. 

But how should Jiang Li face a woman who had seemingly gone a bit crazy due to the villainess' appearance and her nearing doom?

While the other girl was busy formulating plans with the Pope to make herself the Empress, the one here was clutching on the person she thought could fulfill all her wishes.

She wanted to cancel the engagement, but the plot would not let her. She didn't want to love the future Emperor, but even the right to that was being taken away from her. Was it strange for her to momentarily lose her reason?
