People attending the party murmured, casting glances in our direction. Everyone wore expressions like, ‘Why are those two together?!’
Well, that’s how it is. I don’t even know how it ended up like this…
“Everyone, please greet her! She is my friend, Lady Gloria Solsberry!”
Bianca’s bold statement left people hesitating, saying, “Fr-Friends?” The expressions showed disbelief.
Among those who couldn’t easily approach me due to their guard, someone confidently approached with brisk steps. It was none other than Hyacinth Simon!
As Hyacinth Simon arrived in front of us, she gave a cheerful smile, then casually greeted, “Long time no see, Duchess Fiorenza. And… nice to meet you, Lady Solsberry.”
‘Nice to meet me?’
After causing a commotion at Alfonse’s villa and shamelessly pretending it was our first meeting… Truly shameless.
Rumors about Grayan stamping me spread like wildfire.
Considering that Hyacinth Simon came to cause a ruckus over that issue, it seems she and her friends are keeping it a secret.
‘Well, she still has some shame…’
Well, whatever. I don’t want to argue here, so I’ll just play along…
“You two are meeting for the first time?”
… I was about to play along, but Bianca intervened unexpectedly.
“I heard that Miss Simon caused trouble by visiting Alfonse’s villa where the Solsberry couple stayed, right?”
In an instant, the son-in-law froze. Hyacinth Simon’s expression became stiff, to say the least.
Our little lady… As pure as she is, her attack power is strong! It’s even more powerful because there’s no hint of malice!
“Did I misunderstand, Miss Simon?”
It was just a curious tone, implying that she was genuinely curious. Malice zero. The blinking eyes were oh-so gentle.
Who can throw stones at Bianca? Indeed, the cunning person wins everything.
“I, well, that matter…”
Hyacinth Simon seemed flustered, her lips faltering, and her face gradually turned pale.
And I inevitably fell into a bad hunch.
‘Is she crying again?!’
It’s fine if she cries while fighting with me. It just adds a little more to the villainous image. But if Bianca starts crying after asking a question, it becomes awkward in many ways.
‘Even if it doesn’t damage Bianca’s image… But Bianca shouldn’t be embarrassed for doing nothing wrong!’
It’s not right. The one who made a mistake should feel guilty. Why make an enemy suffer emotionally? I blocked Hyacinth Simon in front of Bianca and spoke.
“Miss Simon, I won’t make a big deal out of that incident, but I don’t want to see your face anymore. Please disappear from my sight.”
I deliberately spoke a bit harshly. It should be more effective this way.
Hyacinth Simon, looking shocked, widened her eyes, then burst into tears and ran away…
‘As expected…’
I shook my head in disbelief. Until when would that young lady continue with her immature behavior, bursting into tears every time she was scolded?
‘Anyway, Bianca managed to handle it…’
“No, was that rumor true?”
“I thought it was just a baseless rumor…”
“I knew it was true from the beginning. Miss Simon tends to be a bit troublesome.”
“Lady Hyacinth again…”
“She used to cause trouble for him every day before the Solsberry Duchess got married.”
“Even at Alfonse’s villa… She said the Duchess left her mark on her.”
“Visiting during the marking period… It’s very disrespectful behavior.”
“It’s not just disrespectful. It’s undignified. The Solsberry Duke and Duchess must have been very uncomfortable. Even I wouldn’t want to see Miss Simon’s face.”
…?
Huh, what’s this? Why did public opinion suddenly turn in my favor? This is unexpected.
People even sent sympathetic glances toward me. Perhaps the damage caused by Hyacinth Simon to Grayan was quite extensive?
‘Miss Simon, you were quite a villain too.’
I looked at Bianca with a wry smile. She was squinting with an impressed expression.
“Why did Miss Simon lie?”
Indeed. She seems to be a person without any sense of shame.
After the commotion caused by Hyacinth Simon settled down, people approached me subtly, greeting and engaging in conversations.
Every time, I responded kindly to everyone, doing my best. Maybe I can improve my image with this opportunity!
“…The Solsberry Duchess seems to be a better person than I thought.”
“Yeah, I thought she would be notorious, but she’s kind, and her conversations are good too.”
“It doesn’t seem like she dislikes avians.”
Hehe… I chuckled, pretending to choose finger foods. This should be successful. Hehehe…
‘…But by the way, is this new bird dish any good?’
Can avians eat this…?
“Oh, Troy!”
At that moment, Bianca waved her hand and called out somewhere. ‘Troy’… That’s the name of Duke Fiorenza, right?
Curious, I discreetly turned my head in the direction Bianca was looking. It was none other than the entrance. A man who suddenly appeared there emitted an enormous presence.
‘Wow… What a physique…’
The man had a healthy olive-toned complexion, golden-brown eyes, and unique ash-blond hair. Moreover, he was very tall, with broad shoulders and an imposing, well-built physique. That man was undoubtedly Duke Fiorenza…
“Duke Fiorenza is here!”
As expected.
Duke Fiorenza approached, brushing off people’s greetings carelessly, only focusing on Bianca.
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
