“It’s okay, tell me.”
Kesha, who had been hesitating, bit her lip slightly.
“It’s a bit uncomfortable when I go to the bathroom.”
“The bathroom?”
“Yes. That……”
“Hm?”
“I have constipation.”
Kesha’s face turned red as she honestly admitted.
“What am I going to tell the lady……”
Kesha quickly cooled her suddenly flushed cheeks with her palms.

“It’s a problem that many women experience.”
Atia shrugged her shoulders with a look that questioned why Kesha was suddenly embarrassed.
“What are your regular eating habits?”
“Um, I, that is…… What have I been eating?”
While exchanging a few words with Kesha and taking notes on a piece of paper, Atia nodded her head.
“You are likely to get constipated.”
“Is, is that so?”
“You won’t have a day where the toilet doesn’t get blocked if you eat like that.”
Kesha, who was hit with the truth, cast her gaze downwards.
In fact, there was a time not long ago when she had trouble because the toilet wouldn’t flush. It was something she was too embarrassed to tell anyone.

“Ah……”
“I’ll adjust your diet, so can you follow it?”
“Yes, yes!”
Kesha was surprised.
Had she ever seen Atia’s eyes this clear and sparkling before?
It was a gaze that only came out when she was truly excited.
The Duchess, who had been like a lifeless corpse until now, had started acting strange since yesterday, and today she was making strange remarks.
But as soon as Kesha saw the systematically written diet and types of exercises on the paper, she opened her mouth wide.
“Wow……”
“I only made it this strict because if it’s too strict, you won’t be able to follow it.”

“It seems strict enough already……”
“Hmm.”
“……”
“If you can’t follow it, all of Kesha’s salary will go towards fixing the toilet. Is that okay?”
At those words, Kesha cooled her flushed face by fanning it.
“No, no!”
“Then from today, you’re going to follow this, understand?”
“Yes, yes!”
For some reason, there was power in every word Atia spoke.
With a feeling that she couldn’t help but listen, Kesha nodded her head vigorously.

“Your meal is not yet ready, right?”
“Yes.”
“It’s better to exercise on an empty stomach. Like now.”
“Huh?”
“Since it’s already morning, let’s exercise now.”
“Now? Here?”
“Yes. I also need to exercise.”
There was almost nothing she could do with such a frail body.
Even a slight movement would drain her energy, so she had to focus as much as possible to increase her stamina now.
Did you know?

She might be able to live a bit longer than the original.
“Now, just follow me.”
Atia looked at Kesha with a wide smile and the most generous face in the world.
A moment later.
“How is it? It’s pretty easy when you try it, right?”
“Ha…… ha……”
Kesha collapsed on the fur rug, gasping for breath.
“Ha…… ha……”
“Already tired?”
“……”

The brown rug was soaked with Kesha’s sweat.
Snow was falling heavily outside the window, but the two women were drenched in sweat.
‘What’s this, why am I suddenly so dizzy.’
Atia felt her head spinning.
‘The rug looks double layered. I need to recover more stamina.’
Even though she had been in perfect health in her previous life, she was now like a dying patient.
Did her eagerness to fill in what was missing precede her?
She might end up buried right here on this rug if she continued like this.
“I’ve finished, so now I’ll watch you do it.”
“Ha…… Ma……dam…… Please……mercy……”

Kesha pleaded with a dying face.
Atia’s face suddenly changed.
“One more set.”
“……”
Kesha, seeing her face change 180 degrees, felt a threat that she might die if she didn’t move.
So, she moved her body without realizing it.
[This is the time separator]Duke Wellington’s office.
Casus, who had nodded off on the office sofa, proceeded to open the rest of the letters.
A red seal imprinted on one revealed the name of Heidegger.
‘Father must have left on a journey.’

Casus was not particularly worried.
The battalion led by Heidegger, a predecessor duke, had never lost a battle.
Although Heidegger had suffered a few minor injuries, he was a legend in the Felren Empire.
So much so that the saying ‘running away is the best choice when Heidegger appears’ was prevalent.
Heidegger was swift of mind and adept in strategy.
He was also the figure who elevated the name of the Wellington family.
Even though he had now passed his duke title onto his son and was living alone in another castle.
‘He will do well this time as well.’
Casus swept the letter containing news of his father’s departure to one side.
His back was aching.

It was not surprising considering he had strained his body all day.
Although the pain had begun quite some time ago, by now he was nearly numb.
Even though people around him told him to rest, Casus would not listen.
More so, he was reluctant to delegate tasks to others.
There weren’t any people he trusted enough for that.
The only person he had was his bodyguard Zen, who was good at physical tasks.
But he was not meticulous enough to handle minor incidents and paperwork.
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…?
