leaving quietly would be embarrassing,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, they’re not just worried about face, but feeling a bit defeated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They made a fuss all day and got nothing, not even a word of consolation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It made many of them, tired and hungry, feel as ridiculous as clowns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps loud curses were the only way for them to regain some dignity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in reality, no one cared about what happened here, nor was anyone watching their meltdown.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This only made them seem even more ridiculous.\u003C\u002Fp>",1060,"2026-06-06T11:49:21.332Z",1,"novelbin.me","d0ec30f9a289c990a3434cbb1c8298fb5b8875a356dcb5af2e273aabe368a842","cannon-fodder-heiress-turns-the-tables-by-fortun-chapter-1038","cannon-fodder-heiress-turns-the-tables-by-fortun-chapter-1037",1219,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fcannon-fodder-heiress-turns-the-tables-by-fortun-cover.jpg"]
