An Immodest Proposal Pride And Prejudice

"Compassion. Tell me, what is compassion? Is it a virtue? Or a weakness? A sign of naivety, or wisdom? Or is it one of those ideals that treads the line of ruin and preservation, an unfathomable ideal who's understanding surpasses the mortal mind; only being truly understood by the gods. Mortals struggle with it, wielding compassion like a sword from which they use by holding its blade not handle..." Growing up Reshi never lived a good life. His life had either been bad or worse, or sometimes just bad waiting to happen. Then life decided to crank it up a notch. His family died. Then he died. Then he got slapped by a deity and wacked into the world of his new favourite novel. Here perhaps you maybe thinking he was living a life of riches. Was he the main character? Was he living a life of riches and joy? Was he gifted cheats and powers beyond belief? Was he a cool extra, loved by others and leading a simple life, only being unfortunately dragged into the plotline due to his outstanding moral. Well, partially. He definitely wasn't loved. Not when he transmigrated into the body of Arthur Gravewalker. The Son of the Duke on the modern world of Pandora where humans settled after leaving Earth hundreds of years ago. He was a minor antagonist, not even one that appeared in the main story, with at least a couple of chapters outlining his villainous ways! No, he was some antagonist used to spice up the past of one of the main cast during a flashback scene in the book. So peace was a thing Reshi wouldn't find even in this life. No, he'd have to work for it. Fight for it, give everything he had to suffer and claw to strength, so that finally. He might actually be able to live in peace.

"The Cold CEO's Delicate Wife" is an ABO boss romance novel. The male lead has feelings for someone else but is forced to marry the naïve and sweet female lead due to family obligations. The female lead endures years of torment and coldness before the male lead finally realizes his mistake and returns to live happily ever after with his wife. Unfortunately, Shi Yue transmigrates into this story as the delicate wife who shares her name. Upon arriving, she immediately faces the grand engagement party with the scumbag male lead. He will leave her alone at the event after receiving a call from his true love, leaving her to face scorn and ridicule. Shi Yue refuses to sit and wait for her doom. But just when she has all her revenge plans set up, someone always shows up at the crucial moment to disrupt her schemes. That person is none other than the male lead's proud and protective aunt, Leng Yanmi. Shi Yue realizes clearly that if she wants to take down the scumbag male lead, she must first deal with this obstacle, Leng Yanmi. But how can she handle a villainess boss who is far superior to the male lead in every way? Shi Yue decides to throw herself into the fray. "Auntie, I don't care who he likes, because I also have someone in my heart." Thinking at least she could disgust Leng Yanmi and keep her from interfering in her matters with Leng Mingchuan, she didn't expect things to spiral out of control in another direction. Leng Yanmi: "You shouldn't interfere with my and Shi Yue's affairs. She's in love with me." The male lead rages in frustration: "Aunt, can't you see she's just playing with you?" "Playing with me? Impossible," Leng Yanmi says firmly. "She loves me to death. She can't go a day without seeing me. How could she be playing with me?" The male lead tries to speak, but Leng Yanmi already has him retreat to reflect on his actions. After dealing with the annoying fly, she turns to call Shi Yue. "We haven't seen each other today. Are you coming over, or should I come to you?" Not waiting for Shi Yue's answer, she continues on her own, "Forget it. It's troublesome to go back and forth every day. Pack up and move in with me... Or I can move in with you." Shi Yue: "..." Oh no, she went too far.

Josep frowned as he looked at the few newspapers spread out on the table. In an instant, he understood Annelie's point. Seeing the seriousness of the situation, Josep waved his hand to the guards who were still in the room. ‘Leave us.’ he ordered. As soon as the guards left and the door closed. The atmosphere in the room became more private. Annelie, who had been watching Josep's movements unconsciously, sensed that something was different. Those orderly and deliberate movements, as if the leader was used to dealing with pressure. However, she could not forget what he was for yesterday. ‘All the commotion in town,’ Annelie said, pointing to a pile of newspapers, ‘has one brain behind it. And as Duke, you must immediately arrest whoever is responsible for this mess.’ Josep leaned back in his chair, his seemingly flat face hiding something that caught his attention. ‘So, you believe that all this social chaos has been organised by one person?’ Josep asked in a flat voice. Annelie nodded before continuing, ‘I've read all this over and over again. Although all of these papers were written by different authors and printed in different presses, their writing styles are suspiciously similar.’ Annelie began to point out some examples that could be used as evidence for her conversation that afternoon through the newspaper. ‘The key sentences used seem like they came from a single thought. This is no coincidence, a person or group must be controlling this information to set the narrative in Eldbourne.’ Annelie's continuation made Josep stare at the newspaper calmly. Although in the back of his mind, he knew that Annelie was off the girl's track. ‘When is Lord Harrington home?’ A question that annoyed Annelie because Josep was trying to divert the conversation from a topic that he thought was very important. ‘He should be home. But, what does that have to do with my father?’ Annelie asked in an annoyed tone. Josep did not answer directly. But the young man got up from his seat and walked over to Annelie before looking at her for a moment and saying, ‘I'll take you home.’ Annelie was surprised by Josep's change in demeanour. However, Annelie should not have delved further into the riots that took place in Eldbourne. The events of that day were the gateway that made Annelie always remember the impudence that changed the fate of her life in the future. Which is full of darkness and gripping secrets.

Still getting frequent death threats from the Blood Lord, Rey Reed Smith was forced to abandon his friend and loved one in the Middle Land and embark on the Blood Lord’s quest. As much as Rey didn't want to do the Blood Lord's bidding, he had no choice because the man now had access to his soul. For starters, Rey was killed during the war against Dylan Knoll, and his spirit went straight to the underworld, forcing him to lose his Alpha and Hellhound powers. In the underworld realm, the Blood Lord forced Rey Reed Smith to drink from the water in his fountain, granting him special powers, speed, reflexes, and the ability to read minds. This water took away Alpha Rey’s power, making the Blood Lord have absolute control over Rey’s soul and life. The blood lord forcefully trained Rey, drilled all his skills into his body, and made him a great fighter. Did he do this to send Rey back to the middleland so he could create a breach between the world of the living and the underworld?
