“How should I face Prince? Did this woman really die from the cursed potion she made? Among the terrible things this woman did, this is the most terrible! Damn!”
Even though she had hardly eaten anything all day, a dry heave rose.
“Ugh, urk, ugh…”
Vomiting was futile, and all that came out were transparent gastric fluids and her own tears falling on them.
At that moment, when she didn’t know how to deal with this unpleasant feeling and was crying endlessly, a faint voice of Luna was heard.
“Prince Pellio has arrived.”
Ermedelin wiped her tears in a hurry and went up, only to find Pellio’s silver eyes full of anticipation waiting.
Perhaps he had come to discuss the story about the brooch.
Ermedelin, not knowing whether to think up to that point, swallowed her saliva heavily, smiled brightly, and welcomed Pellio.
“Prince! I was about to visit you, and you came just in time.”
“Really? I’m glad to hear that the Empress’s heart has reached you. The brooch suits you quite well on your shoulder.”
Although the person who gave her the brooch did not mention that it was herself, looking at Pellio’s face, it was clear that he had the face of a boy waiting for praise.
“I didn’t expect to receive a gift that suits my heart so well. It’s the most liked gift I’ve ever received so far.”
Laughter seemed to be in control of Felio’s lips and cheeks in a strange way in response to Ermedelin’s praise. On the other hand, he seemed to be holding back laughter in his own way.
However, the joy flowing from his mysterious silver eyes was unstoppable. Along with the joy, a pure emotion untainted by any impurities reached Ermedelin through his eyes.
As tears kept threatening to flow, Ermedelin bit her molars, forcing a happy smile towards the prince.
“I’m fortunate to receive a gift that suits my heart.”
“That’s right. Since I’ve received such a precious gift, I plan to cherish it until I die.”
Ermedelin had swallowed her sobs so hard through her throat that it was now painful. At the moment when it became too painful to hold back tears while looking at Pellio, Ermedelin, who was about to send him away, was interrupted by the maids who came looking for her.
“Your Majesty, she’s here!”
Ermedelin rushed to them, and as the maids hugged her, they were momentarily perplexed but soon warmly embraced Ermedelin.
Due to the emotional turmoil caused by the Investiture for Valier, they thought her reaction was excessive.
“Your Majesty! Congratulations on becoming the Duchess of Franshuar!”
Belerest and Biela presented a small package they had prepared together.
Inside were undoubtedly precious fans and lace gloves.
The jewelry attached to the fan was so splendid and dazzling that it seemed almost too wasteful to carry around. Lady Granier presented a high-quality bound history book with plenty of gold dust decorating the cover, and Leana gave an ornate dagger for decoration with no practical use.
Receiving the gifts with genuine gratitude, Ermedelin was moved.
“Thank you for preparing such precious gifts. Well, I haven’t given anything to you all…”
“Why didn’t you give us anything? You already have. Haven’t you given us time to mourn? Compared to that, these are nothing.”
Tock, ugh.
Although she had been holding back well, Belerest’s warm words caused the dam that was blocking Ermedelin’s tear glands to collapse.
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…?
