Thanks to the three little ones, the meal continued in a relaxed atmosphere.
In fact, it was nothing more than adults listening to and responding to the chatter between Eshat and Evelia.
The headacheinducing task of the diplomats was sufficient to be handled at the rigid desk of reality by the Emperor and Hugo, and senior officials, none of them wanted to bring complicated issues to the dining table.
On the other hand, Hugo and Agares were competitively placing finely chopped food on Evelia’s plate.
And then.
Attention!
The Stein princess, Silvia, sitting across from Agares, dropped her knife for the second time since the start of the meal.
The sharp sound of the knife touching the plate echoed in the banquet hall.
Since her gaze was constantly towards the man across, it was inevitable that the hand holding the knife would become numb.
‘Ahem.’
The Duke of Stein, who was sitting next to Silvia, gave the princess a silent warning with a stern gaze, and Silvia struggled to hold the knife straight.
“I’m sorry.”
This was a meeting with the Emperor and diplomats from other countries. Even the smallest flaws would likely lead to severe scolding from her father when she returned home.
The etiquette she had learned harshly from a very young age did not allow even a moment’s deviation for the seventeenyearold Princess Silvia.
However, the wizard in front of her was enchanting enough to make Silvia lose her calm.
Slip.
Then, Evelia’s big knife, awkward in her hand, scraped the plate, making an unpleasant sound, and fell off the table.
At the unpleasant sound, Silvia slightly wrinkled her forehead and put a piece of vegetable in her mouth.
‘I bet that little princess will get a stern look from her father, too. I bet she’ll hear a sharp word from the man sitting next to her about not even being able to keep a simple dining etiquette.’
But she thought that’s what would happen, yet, what unfolded was completely different.
“I’m sorry, Aga. This knife might still be heavy for your hand.”
The Duke of Artina immediately took his daughter’s plate and cut the meat for her.
The knife that was sure to make a loud noise when it hit the ground was swiftly caught by the man sitting next to her before it even touched the ground. The subsequent words and gaze were also warm.
“You’re still clumsy, little one.”
“No, I’m all grown up now.”
“You’re still far from it. Even after you really grow up, there should be somewhere you are lacking. Understand?”
It seemed like he wanted to find a reason to keep looking after her like now.
Whether it was a joke or not, the little princess furrowed her brow and tilted her head, but it was clear to Silvia.
‘He’s so soft only in front of that princess.’
Even in front of the Emperor, even in front of the Dukes of the two empires, the man who acted as if he was going to devour them, was infinitely weak only in front of that little princess.
Unlike her, who must prove her worth to be loved, the princess who received blind love oozed innocence and comfort from her demeanor and laughter.
‘I envy her.’
She was jealous. If she was a forced fragrance emitting flower, that little princess was like a dandelion blooming on its own in the middle of winter.
So precious and rare, that even wild beasts couldn’t dare touch it and felt pitiful.
Although she was a princess of the same standing in empires of the same power, she envied the little princess and coveted her position.
Putting aside the warm father and brothers she had known since birth, she wanted to cling to that wizard.
“Your Highness and the wizard seem very close, may I ask what your relationship is?”
Silvia, who tried to hide the envy on her beautiful face, asked in a clear voice.
“Nanny.”
“Rude.”
“My bunny!”
Different answers came out at the same time from Hugo, Agares, and Evelia.
Assuming that nanny was right, bunny seemed weird, but it was not bad.
Contrary to his cold impression, his deeply submerged warm eyes and low voice captivated Silvia once again.
Even as a lady of a high noble family, she wanted to earn love for herself.
Instead of conditional love received from the family, she wanted to receive blind love from her husband.
‘I don’t know which nobleman he is, but even if his status is low, it won’t be a problem.’
As a wizard who can even make the Emperor and the dukes yield, it’s only a matter of time before he receives a high noble title.
The delegation’s stay was a week long, and five days still remained.
It was a sufficient period for a beautiful girl to seduce a man.
Silvia showed off a dazzling smile.
[Star Icon][Star Icon][Star Icon]On the evening of the second day after lunch with the emperor.
Evelia packed up all her stuff in her room and dragged it to Arital’s room.
Arital welcomed Evelia with a worldbright smile, and Evelia’s bed was decided to be the same as Arital’s.
Enril, who had received a special order to protect his sister, curled up next to them and settled in.
“Now, Princess. Wear this nightgown!”
“Is it the same as Arital’s?”
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…?
