Good news it ended 8 chapters after this. Makes sense though, the big climax has happened, gender revealed and shockingly few forest fires.

Ugh, this snake.

I feel like our precious Yuri's face has been altered slightly.

Maybe you should just take Lesta for yourself, empress.

This is why we love our dearly beloved empress.

Granny is awesome.

Or both.

Did Yuri tell her something?

Girl, accept your boy's help.

Never should have invested in the mines without y'know investigating them.

Oh my goodness, I can't wait for her to tell her brother that she's decided to finalize this plan.

I'm glad things are ending well for Veronica.

Man, can you imagine if they both fucking died because of Nigel's fuckery?

Nigel, that's a dick move. This isn't a legal contract where you can claim you abided by the letter of the law. Even if it turns out well, it's a betrayal of trust.

No choice but to eliminate all the witnesses.
Still feels like a scam, but considering his sister trying to con our ML sounds like suicide.

You really should investigate personally, especially with how pretty she is.

She's thoroughly wrapped, I'm sure.
Random fatal ocean poison really is a danger though.

It's good that her family aren't evil.

Indeed. https://i.postimg.cc/FsgzD7M2/i.jpg
