Then, she focused her gaze on one spot and added.
“Like a beast.”
Despite her blunt voice, the empress’s eyes were filled with greed.
“What have you prepared for today?”
When the empress asked, the man took out a bundle of letters from his pocket, including those from Leone, and placed them in front of the empress.
“Hmm.”
The empress, who seemed sweet and gentle, raised her innocent-looking eyes.
In that moment, her gaze changed.
Her eyes, sparkling in the light, were no longer innocent.
They belonged to a provocative woman who didn’t hide her ambition.
“Come up.”
The man walked toward her, tossing aside the shirt that was already half-open.
Then, with a smirk, he ripped off the empress’s nightgown.
An odd breath escaped between the lips of the empress, who had an astonished expression.
Lacrahann had sensed that something strange was happening with Periat for about half a year.
Of course, during that time, there was a period of drought that caused suffering to the people.
But even so, there was something suspicious going on.
Although he couldn’t figure out what was happening, over time, jewels accumulated in the emperor’s treasure vault, the one he was obsessed with.
Blond individuals started appearing here and there, or even golden-eyed individuals.
Someone continued to appear as if relentlessly seeking them out.
There were also many other trivial incidents.
The locusts used to pass through the portal kept leaking somewhere, and the emperor still remained ignorant, fixating only on the jewels.
Prince Loren of Dersis, who had crossed the border from Dersis, was not enough, and this time, the god of protection from the Contana Kingdom began roaming the north beyond the boundaries.
He seemed to have a clear purpose and invested all his time in taming the divine being Muhah, and then he returned to Contana.
When Lacrahann realized that all these events were related, he first brought the unprotected children to the castle.
Although he couldn’t understand why all these irregular phenomena were happening at the same time, there might be another war, or internal rebellion could occur.
So, he decided to protect the children first.
And that night.
A fire broke out in the warehouse where the children were, and unexpectedly, Vercheria appeared in front of him.
Lacrahann had an intuition that all these events were happening centered around Vercheria.
He couldn’t know the reason, but it was certain that some significant change was about to occur.
And today, a boy resembling her and a woman creating portals by herself.
Lacrahann had to anticipate these combinations to prevent anyone from unjustly becoming a sacrifice.
“I’m sure I’ve seen the woman somewhere. Where was it? Where.”
Even when Lacrahann first saw the woman below the tower, he knew that her face was one he had seen somewhere before.
But so far, he couldn’t recall who that woman was.
If he had exchanged even a word with her, he might have remembered, but they hadn’t been close.
Just a passing encounter. But she must have had a presence to be remembered.
“Ha.”
He looked at Vercheria with frustration, exhaling a stifling breath.
Lacrahann had a tendency to remember even people who passed by him by chance.
It wasn’t intentional, but he naturally remembered faces and characteristics of people unusually well.
Even if he didn’t exactly remember where and how he had met her, recalling a rough image was easier. It was also difficult for him to overlook even small things because the world she had to live in had to be intact. However, strangely, this time it didn’t come to mind so easily. For Vercheria, who had to live in pain in a narrow tower, the world she had to live in from now on had to be beautiful and stable enough. That was Lacrahann’s sole goal now. He was in a state almost indistinguishable from a racehorse. He could gather the strength to run only toward Vercheria. Until now, it was unbelievable how he had lived without Vercheria. If Wyatt heard this, he would probably jump, but Lacrahann even thought that his life might have been created for Vercheria. “It’s crazy.” He knew it wasn’t normal, but Lacrahann believed there was a reason even for this. Whether it was revealed in the border village or after all the events exploded, he couldn’t know, but he felt clearly how tightly the thread of fate connecting her and himself was bound. As Lacrahann casually turned his gaze, a blond boy hugging her came into his sight. At that moment, a vein popped on Lacrahann’s forehead.
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…?
