Near the Rineba River, at a town school that was rented out entirely for the occasion, the event known as “Rineba’s Night” was held. Pleridas, who attended, sat with a sullen expression all night long, no matter how funny the host was or how cheerfully the people around her laughed.
It was because she felt stifled, unable to confess anywhere that she had argued with a nun at the Pione Monastery earlier that morning.
After all, there would be no mad person to join her in cursing the nun. Moreover, the nun spoke as if she knew that she was not Princess Erwin.
“Is there any reason to tarnish the image of Her Highness Princess Erwin in such a way?”
“Nun, why would I tarnish my own image? I barely escaped from the Tesia Empire with the intention to serve the people of Eberen now… I fear there may be more people thinking like you.”
Although she calmly parried as if not offended, her heart sank momentarily.
If Ezra found out that she was not the real Princess Erwin in this situation, he might truly kill her.
Ezra sat beside Pleridas, acting as if he were the protector of Princess Erwin, implying here and there that they would soon marry.
Though she hated the idea of marrying trash like Ezra, she couldn’t go back to the Tesia Empire either. Emperor Allen wouldn’t leave Rudrager’s people alone.
Lately, Pleridas, who was preoccupied with escaping Ezra, couldn’t help but glare at him. At Pleridas, who didn’t manage her expression at all, Ezra sharply warned.
“Can’t you open your eyes properly?”
“If you speak properly, I’ll open my eyes.”
“You, you…!”
At that moment, people’s gaze and applause turned towards the two.
Before starting the opera performance, specially renamed from “Parsad’s Bride” to “Eberen’s Bride” to commemorate the return of Princess Erwin, the host led the applause towards Pleridas.
Pleridas responded to the people with a light smile and wave, and Ezra also waved with a sour smile.
The audience, mostly Eberen people, also welcomed her with warm smiles and applause. She distinctly felt that their goodwill was directed towards Pleridas, not Ezra.
If it hadn’t been for this reaction from the people, she would have run away long ago. Ezra, perhaps feeling inferior even about this, left his seat not long after the performance began.
A short while later, Paydan quietly approached Pleridas, who was sitting with an uncomfortable expression.
“Your Highness, I apologize for interrupting your enjoyment of the performance, but there’s someone who wants to see you urgently…”
Paydan was the only one among Ezra’s gang whom Pleridas didn’t dislike. Paydan, who rarely spoke to her due to Ezra’s jealousy even before marriage, had piqued her interest.
“Who is it?”
“You’ll know when you see.”
“All right, then.”
She left the auditorium, where the opera was in full swing, and went up to the dark corridor where only the footsteps of Paydan and Pleridas and the faint sound of the opera performance could be heard.
Eberen people would be disappointed if she left her seat for too long.
The only thing left for Pleridas, who had proven her worth by loving Rudrager, was the role of Princess Erwin.
With that thought, she followed Paydan into a dark empty classroom, where she saw the silhouette of a man.
“Greetings, Princess Erwin.”
“Who are you?”
“If Your Highness accepts my proposal, I become Count Pedrelimid, and if not, I’ll just be a passing wind.”
Count Pedrelimid? Wasn’t he one of the ten nobles of the Parsad Empire!
Fleidas sat down in the chair that Pheidon had taken out for her, somewhat surprised. It seemed that the utility value of Princess Erwin was not only for Ezra.
“I wish you were Pedalimede, though I don’t know what the proposal is.”
“I wish that as well, Your Highness the Princess.”
Pheidon had already noticed while spending time together that he was not a subordinate who stupidly obeyed Ezra as much as Mev did. However, she thought that being Ezra’s confidant was the right thing, even though she only spoke the truth.
To Fleidas, who followed Pheidon without any doubt, Pedalimede offered a onceinalifetime opportunity to get away from Ezra, sweetly whispering it to her.
“Please become the empress of the Parsad Empire.”
Empress.
For Fleidas, who used to dream of being the empress of the Tesia Empire while rolling around on Emperor Rudrager’s bed, there was no word that struck her more strongly.
(This is a time divider.)
“Your Grace, I heard something strange when I went to the Mass ([Star Icon] Church’s ceremony) …”
The Duchess of Blahnath, who had just returned from going out, spoke as she took off her hat and handed it to the butler, Tuan.
She made an effort to speak elegantly and leisurely, but it meant that she had no leisure since she began to speak as soon as she saw Cassard upon returning to the Duke’s residence.
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…?
