Todos los capítulos de His Tenth Abandonment Gave Me a New Life: Capítulo 1 - Capítulo 8

After spring arrived, the Princess Royal hosted a banquet on Willowmere Lake.Rosalie attended as well.She was once Adrian’s fiancée.Three years earlier, bandits kidnapped her on her way to a chapel, and she disappeared without a trace.The Hale family assumed she was dead.A year later, the king arranged my marriage to Adrian.For two years, we lived together in quiet harmony, but Rosalie suddenly returned.She had endured great hardships, which left her with a chronic heart condition, and she had lost both her parents.When Adrian brought her to Hale Manor, he said she would stay for only three months.“Once she recovers, I’ll find her another place to live.”I agreed at the time.I even personally prepared the east wing for her and chose the softest bedding.But three months passed, and she still didn’t leave.Adrian stopped mentioning it, too.At the banquet on Willowmere Lake, a sudden current jolted our barge.Rosalie and I fell into the water at the same time.Adrian was stand

I had originally planned to tell Adrian about the pregnancy.After all, this child had come so quietly.It was as if, when I had nothing left, the baby had reached out and gently held one of my fingers.I bought a pair of tiny baby booties embroidered with little fox faces.I had embroidered only one eye when Rosalie slit her wrist in the east wing.Half a basin of water turned red with blood.Adrian carried her out of the manor, and I was waiting for him in the entrance hall.“Adrian.”He didn’t stop walking.“We’ll talk when I get back.”“My stomach hurts a little.”He finally turned around.His gaze paused on my face for a moment.Rosalie lay in his arms, barely breathing.“My lord, don’t worry about me…”He immediately tightened his hold on her.“Clara, have the house physician examine you.”“She’s lost a lot of blood. I have to get her to a doctor.”I watched him step over the threshold.The ninth pearl cracked around my wrist.[The ninth abandonment has been confirmed.][Life cou

Rosalie knelt outside the mourning chapel all night.Early the next morning, she brought out the betrothal contract she and Adrian had signed years ago and placed it before him.“Adrian, I know this isn’t the right time.“But Clara is gone. You promised you would take care of me for the rest of my life.”Adrian stared at the contract.A flicker of hope slowly appeared in Rosalie’s eyes.But he placed the document in the brazier before the coffin.Flames curled around the edges of the paper.She lunged forward to snatch it back, but caught only a handful of ash.“What are you doing?”“Didn’t you always ask whether I truly cared about you?”Adrian pushed a box toward her feet.Inside were all the things he gave her over the years.“I searched for you for three years, brought you to Hale Manor, and protected you ten times. "Whatever I owed you in the past, I’ve repaid in full.”What Rosalie cared about most had never been the betrothal contract.It was the certainty that whenever she tur

At the end of the month, I planned to move to the Southlands with Molly.Cloudmere wasn’t far from the capital.Now that Adrian had found me, it was only a matter of time before the Hale family and Rosalie’s family learned where I was.I didn’t want Molly to grow up surrounded by gossip.But on the day we were supposed to leave, the city gates were suddenly closed.Caleb hurried over and handed Adrian a letter.Rosalie had escaped from the convent and climbed onto the city tower.She said that if Adrian didn’t go to see her, she would jump.Caleb said urgently, “My lord, the wind is strong at the tower, and Miss Quinn is extremely distressed. No one dares go near her.”I sat inside the carriage without urging him.After reading the letter, Adrian looked up at me.“You’re leaving today?”“Yes.”“Will you ever come back?”“No.”His hand tightened around the letter.A commotion broke out in the direction of the tower.Caleb urged him again.But Adrian didn’t mount his horse.Instead, he o
