No matter how he managed to comfort my father, I couldn’t stand by any longer.

Casus’s gaze, which had been fixed on Heidegger, who had fallen asleep with his mouth open, shifted to Atia.

Atia blinked her moist, black eyes at Casus.

“Aushi, what’s this. You’ve already found your way here.”

In fact, Atia had expected it.

Since he had run away without a word in the greenhouse, it was inevitable that Casus would come to catch him.

She had thought so.

Nevertheless, Casus was too fast.

Decisively, though she couldn’t exactly tell what it was, Casus seemed to have a hidden purpose.

The mound of dirt piled up in the corner of the greenhouse was the same.

So Atia decided not to leave the training ground as much as possible so as not to bother Casus’s eyes.

At the same time, she had to stick to Heidegger, as she didn’t know what would happen.

Moreover, she had the purpose of protecting him.

“You.”

Casus called Atia in a low voice, full of implications.

“Shh!”

Atia lifted her index finger again, signaling him to be quiet.

Casus seemed ready to draw his sword at any moment, but fortunately, he had no sword now.

He didn’t seem to be hiding any sharp weapons like spears or hammers, either.

‘Situation assessment complete.’

Having quickly assessed the situation, Atia didn’t say anything, but lifted her palm to signal him to wait a moment.

Then she picked up a pen and paper from the office desk and began to write something.

Square. Square.

Casus was quietly watching what she was writing.

She seemed to be writing very carefully so as not to make a sound.

‘What the hell is this.’

He looked around once again.

A moderately subtle atmosphere with curtains drawn and incense burning.

Aroma scent stimulating the olfactory sense.

A sleeping father.

The office, where stern affairs were viewed, seemed to have turned into a cozy bedroom in an instant.

Casus knew well how fiercely his father had lived.

He had never slept deeply and had devoted his life to protecting the Felren Empire.

It was the first time he had seen his father sleeping in front of his eyes.

And.

He was secretly shocked at the fact that Atia saw such a figure before him.

“Sigh…….”

Thud.

Atia lifted a piece of paper slightly towards Casus.

[Should we talk outside instead of here if you have something to say?]

Casus gave Atia a nod, signaling her to follow him.

Atia followed him quietly, once again checking if Casus was hiding a weapon.

Clank.

The door to Heidegger’s office quietly closed.

A quiet mansion corridor with no one.

A few steps away from Heidegger’s office, Casus stopped.

“What are you doing?”

Casus’s deep blue eyes were aimed at her.

Atia, who was much shorter, had to look up at him. Her hands were slightly sticky with aroma oil.

“I was taking care of your father.”

“Who’s looking after who?”

Casus chuckled.

But Atia’s expression was serious.

“I’m going to protect your father.”

“What?”

“Your father, although he looks healthy, has quite a few spots that need attention.”

“Who are you? A doctor?”

Atia just blinked her eyes at Casus’s words.

Her long eyelashes cast shadows under her eyes.

“The human body always needs maintenance. If you neglect it, you could go to the bone.”

“Why do you do it?”

“Because I’m the best at it.”

“What…….?”

“You saw your father sleeping earlier, didn’t you?”

“Don’t ever touch my lord’s body again.”

“Why?”

Atia asked Casus, opening her eyes wide.

Without blinking once.

At the sight of her audacity, Casus was on the verge of losing his patience.

“I can’t understand your impudence.”

“Impudence? You said you didn’t want it, your lordship, my massage.”

“……. ”

“I don’t do it for those who don’t want it. I ask for consent first, and if it’s okay, I proceed.”

“What?”

“Your father allowed it, too. There’s no reason I shouldn’t, right?”
Atia looked at Casus’s large hand.

A hand that had held a sword for a long time, cutting down enemies.

It had done many things with that hand.

“Or you do it, Your Highness. Ah, but you don’t have such skills, do you?”

“You……!”

“After all, it is my uncle who passes on the lineage of the Duke. If the sons do not take care of it, then I must do it.”

Casus grabbed the back of his neck.

“If your blood pressure is high, the chance of collapsing suddenly increases. You are young to be like this already.”

Atia narrowed her brows and shook her head furiously.

‘You are going to fall in fiery love with the original heroine and spend a sweet time being beaten and cooked.’

“Ha.”

Casus gave a hollow laugh as if disgusted.

It was no joke to see her looking up at him with wide eyes on her small body.

Casus spoke, holding his forehead.

“That’s right. I admit defeat.”

“Huh?”

“Give me your body.”

“What, what are you giving permission for?”

“I thought about how suffocating it must have been to get to that point. It’s natural that you’re going crazy, not having a night together and leaving you alone.”

“……Yes?”

Atia raised her eyebrows, looking very flustered.

Her eyes bulged out.

Casus cleared his throat awkwardly, looking down at Atia.

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…?
