“Let’s get ready since we should enter gradually,” Edit turned her words unnecessarily, afraid someone might catch his explicit gaze.
“…….,” Walter calmly organized Edit’s veil and then faced her squarely. It seemed like it would be difficult to resist the impulse if he didn’t shift his gaze elsewhere.
In truth, he wanted to throw Edit’s veil, which she was wearing, to the ground immediately and grab the reddened cheek with his hand.
He wanted to freely taste those lips that subtly hid desire, torment her, and hear in detail what she wanted and when she had become like this.
Today, he noticed a significant change in her gaze as she looked at his exposed upper body this morning.
Although he thought he had endured hunger well, his patience melted away when faced with the blue eyes tinged with a peculiar interest.
Checking the recommended rest period from during the wedding preparations and confirming the time when he could respond to his wife’s desires, in a way, it was all thanks to Edit.
“Come to think of it, if we lift the veil now, would tonight be the wedding night?”
“……!”
“That’s tradition for you. If you don’t have the wedding night, the marriage could be invalid.”
Already having a cute son between them and now suddenly talking about the wedding night. Edit’s nonchalance was astonishing.
Whether it was because of her beautiful face or the cheeky charm that made her feel cute, he didn’t find it awkward for him to reveal his desires.
Before she could say anything, Walter added with a gentlemanly attitude.
“I don’t intend to rush, Edit. I won’t force myself on you, so tell me when you’re mentally prepared.”
He turned towards the open door, making a creaking sound, and laughed.
“I’ve been slowly preparing our lady’s body all this time.”
“Walter, what is―.”
“You can enter now, both of you.”
Walter, wearing a cheerful expression as if asking when he had ever made an indecent remark, took Edit’s hand and walked towards the door.
Watching Edit, wearing a wedding dress symbolizing purity, desiring him was both enjoyable and painful.
Suppressing the overwhelming heat, he put on a smile that seemed genuine when dealing with others.
Even the children scattering flowers from the basket momentarily forgot their task, captivated by the beauty of the two.
Especially with her hair braided to one side and wearing a white veil, Edit had come to accept everything Lexion had done to make her a part of it all.
“It seems Sir Sogong is deeply in love. Especially considering he went so far as to hire a lawyer to annul his marriage to Viscount Portrian, even though they had already separated.”
“I heard a rumor that Lexion’s letter of complaint to journalists who still refer to Edit as Viscount Portrian’s wife has arrived. It might be true.”
Well, it wasn’t unreasonable for her to be the one who had freed Sir Sogong, who had lived as a stable keeper in the distant Portrian territory.
It was also a repayment for investigating how respectable the disappeared Viscount named ‘Rowell’ was across several generations.
Moreover, there was a surprise gift at this wedding.
“Ugh.”
“Yeah, yeah. It seems like everyone likes you.”
Melissa, boasting of being the eldest daughter of the family and a mother who raised her children well, was monopolizing Adrian throughout the wedding.
Thanks to that, she understood how people looked at the child and what they thought.
Everyone present knew that the child would be recognized as part of Lexion’s family at the same time as the marriage vow, and they knew what that surname meant.
Couples, dozens in pairs, with sparkling eyes were already eyeing the child born just two months ago as their future son-in-law.
“With such distinct facial features already, this child might get involved in quite a scandal later.”
At this rate, Adrian Lexion’s debut in society could be considered successful.
Melissa prayed that the two people Lea cherished would be happy for a long time and would witness the child’s growth to the end.
Before long, amidst the cheers of the people, Walter and Edit, holding hands, stood in front of the officiating priest.
The priest blessed the two, and with a solemn voice, said, “Now, I announce the marriage of Walter Jacques Lexion, Duke of Sogong, and Edit Lowell, Lady of Rowell. The two shall…”
Before Walter’s permission could be obtained, Edit removed the veil she was wearing and embraced her cheek.
As he lowered his head without a hint of hesitation, touching his lips slightly, Edit closed her eyes. It felt as if her heart, which had been beating excessively, would stop completely.
Cheers from the crowd, falling flower petals, and his passionate kiss.
It was the moment when the wedding with the Jacque family, which Edit had imagined every day before realizing the cruelty of the world with her mother’s death, became a reality.
“If this is the reaction already, what will happen later tonight, Edit?”
“…….,”
She never thought that the innocent Jacques would grow into such a skillful and sensual man.
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…?
