## Series

- slug: the-monstrous-dukes-adopted-daughter-cc9902

## Chapter
- number: 60
- release_date: 2025-03-08

### Summary
The chapter concludes the immediate aftermath of the Speràdo trial, though not with the finality many hoped for. The Marquis and his daughter Ellie evade execution, continuing to exist as a persistent threat under the machinations of the Dowager Empress, much to the audience's frustration. A secondary plot involving a coerced servant, Amroa, is resolved; she is reunited with her daughter but they are banished, a sentence considered unjust by some given the extreme duress she was under. The chapter's pivotal moment, however, is a sudden and shocking four-year time skip that serves as a season finale cliffhanger. The story jumps forward to a sixteen-year-old Leslie, whose face is kept hidden but whose healthy appearance is hinted at. This leap in time leaves readers with mixed emotions: a sense of loss for the endearing child protagonist, but also excitement for her teenage development, the potential for a budding romance with Conrad, and the inevitable future confrontations with her unyielding former family.
