Contract Marriage with the Devil Duke (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 60
The winner of the hunting tournament was Dimidius Belial. Standing atop the large podium prepared at the edge of the forest, Dimidius received the treasure of the deep sea from the Emperor. The treasure of the deep sea consisted of exquisite lapis lazuli earrings, a necklace, and a bracelet.
Seeing Dimidius receive the treasure of the deep sea before countless nobles, Orentia felt a surge of pride. She recalled his words before the hunting tournament began—that he wanted to give her the treasure of the deep sea himself. Her heart pounded, but she couldn’t tell whether it was because of that memory or because of Dimidius’s impending exposure.
Standing before the podium, Dimidius scanned the faces of the nobles and spoke.
“I thank you all for congratulating me on my victory. However, today my wife, Orentia Belial, nearly died from an assassin’s attack. It seems the culprit has already sensed danger and fled the scene.”
At Dimidius’s words, all the nobles were startled and began whispering to one another, glancing around in shock. Upon hearing the word “assassin,” the Emperor, who had just handed Dimidius the treasure of the deep sea, spoke gravely.
“Have you identified the culprit? Who on earth is it!”
Hearing the Emperor’s furious tone, Dimidius descended from the podium and dragged up the assassin whom the knights had been holding. The assassin, having lost his weapon and with his mask removed, kept his head bowed deeply.
It was truly a complicated situation.
Grabbing the assassin’s head, Dimidius lifted it and spoke in an intimidating voice.
“Tell me the name of the one who ordered you to kill my wife.”
The assassin clenched his eyes shut and cried out.
“A-ah… it was Countess Armenuaka!”
His declaration sent a ripple through the crowd. Sokor, who had been searching for the missing Kikozelia, was so shocked his lips trembled uncontrollably.
Everyone turned to look at the utterly stunned Sokor. Orentia frowned, feeling as if her injured arm suddenly ached even more. Thus, the prestige of House Armenuaka had fallen. How had his parents preserved their honor for so long? Orentia felt only sorrow.
Since the Countess had committed a grave crime, Count Sokor would be unable to engage actively in political affairs for the time being. Although Kikozelia had fled upon realizing her failure, capturing her wouldn’t be too difficult—having lived in luxury within the noble house, she surely couldn’t endure a harsh life for long.

Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation
One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.

Intro:
To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.
But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.
It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.
This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.
Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.
Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.
“Let’s divorce!”
***
Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.
Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?
But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.
Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.
Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.
In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.
Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”
Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.
He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”
***
Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.
But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.
“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”
Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?
Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
