“Yes?”
Larisa was confused.
“After the cleaning is done, we’re going to invite your friends and have a party. Ask them to be friends with Lara.”
“Uh…”
Larisa struggled to find words in a hurry. She didn’t have anyone she could call a friend even after almost a week.
“Well…”
“To play with friends until late, you have to invite parents too, right? So, it would be nice if you could write neatly, wouldn’t it?”
Parents too? Larisa, who was on the verge of being exposed to the crisis of having no friends, replied with a sulky face, “Yes…”
Of course, Sioed had a plan. If he sent invitations to the children, they might refuse, but if he sent invitations with Guinevere’s seal to their parents, no one would refuse.
Even if the children didn’t want to go, their parents would drag them along. Hehehe, Sioed smiled with a sinister grin.
“Will this really help?”
Guinevere was anxious. If possible, she wanted to hide the children somewhere and raise them in the greenhouse. Then the children would be safe in her arms for as long as possible.
But that would mean breaking the promise with Marina. Marina’s idea of Larisa’s happiness included freedom.
“Well, this is a method we haven’t tried in our past lives. If you openly show that you cherish Larisa, no one will dare to attack her easily.”
Would it really be like that? Guinevere looked at Sioed, who was contemplating with an expressionless face, and he approached her first. His eyes were captivating. If she kept looking, she might get lost.
“What about this?”
“It’s a gift.”
Guinevere, who always wore a plain black and long dress without any adornments, still looked beautiful on her own, but for some reason, she seemed to match the luxurious item very well. Guinevere felt a strange feeling from the necklace.
“I can feel something.”
“I personally cast a protective spell on it. It will block any attack once.”
“Then, shouldn’t William…”
Sioed interrupted her words.
“Can’t you just accept it, please?”
Unlike usual, his expression was serious. Guinevere looked at him in silence and then averted her gaze first. It was an insolent gaze. If she kept staring, she might get charmed.
“For now, he’ll stick close to William at the academy.”
“Is it possible to maintain it from such a distance?”
“Yes.”
Here’s the English translation of the provided Korean paragraph:
“Moreover, you can share half of its power?”
“Yeah.”
It’s hard to guess what kind of creature it is. To share a high-level consciousness, it must be an intelligent being. Moreover, for an ordinary creature, it’s impossible to handle half of a dragon’s power.
“What’s its identity?”
“Sylph.”
“The wind spirit?”
Guinevere was greatly surprised. The story of dragons dealing with spirits was only found in fairy tales.
Dragons exist; if you were a transcendent being like Guinevere, you could know just by feeling the flow of magic. But this was the first time she learned that spirits actually existed.
Guinevere exclaimed with excitement, releasing a breath.
“Show me!”
“Right now, it’s next to William…”
“Then on the weekend! Show me!”
“Okay.”
Sioed hesitated internally. It was so cute that he wanted to pat its head. But it wouldn’t work, right? Guinevere asked with sparkling eyes.
“Can you see other things? Undine or Ifrit too?”
“I have to sever the contract with the sylph… Since there’s only the sylph to secretly protect William. I’ll show you later when everyone is safe.”
“I see.”
The excitement subsided. Guinevere sighed inwardly. The habit of losing her mind over anything related to magic wouldn’t change. Not even in a situation where the children were in danger.
Sioed suddenly asked the dejected Guinevere.
“Vera, what are you thinking?”
“William will be safe, right?”
“Yeah. I’m here.”
Guinevere sincerely thought that it was fortunate that Sioed was here. Now she just needed to protect Larisa well. In her previous life, Larisa had fallen victim to poison. This time, she had to prevent that from happening at all costs.
“Are you sure? If I show that I care for Larisa, will others not bother her?”
“That’s right. Children who originally have no parental attention are usually the first to be attacked.”
In that case, she should display her affection as much as possible. To ensure that no one would dare harm Larisa. No one would touch her children.
After taking a deep breath, Guinevere extended her hand. Naturally, Sioed took that hand, and he began escorting her. It was time for the party’s host to enter.
When male lead is the homewrecker
“I know she doesn’t love him.”
I’ve read the novel below twice already. Girls, I’m highly recommending it to you!
The female lead? Not a good person.
The second male lead? Not a good person.
The male lead? Willingly plays the third party, breaking up the female and second male lead’s relationship despite all the warnings from his friends—so yeah, he’s definitely not a good person either.
Basically, nobody in this novel is simple-minded or without scheming.
The female lead starts off as the male lead’s secretary, but don’t worry—later on, she takes over the company while the male lead steps back to support her. He won’t steal her spotlight, overshadow her, or dull her shine.
I love novels where men are out here snatching wigs, tearing each other down, and going to war just to win the female lead’s affection. And this is exactly that kind of novel. Most of Hai Dai Ran’s works have this dynamic. You’ll see the male characters’ emotions being pushed to the absolute extreme.
There’s even a scene where the second male lead exposes the male lead online for being a homewrecker. The brotherhood immediately gangs up on him, dragging him through the mud. I find it compelling —it completely flips reality on its head, where usually, women are the ones fighting over a man and getting torn apart by the sisterhood.
For me, female leads in the novels I read should only struggle in their careers, not in love. But if the brainless romantics in the story are all men? I have zero complaints.
I’ve pretty much read all of Hai Dai Ran’s novels and even translated all of them—her works are just my thing. I’ll slowly upload everything here. One day, when my website is official, I hope I can invite her to join as one of the star authors.
Here’s the story synopsis:
One-line summary: She is his lifelong obsession, to the point where he was willing to be a third wheel, scorned by society, just to wedge his way into her relationship with her fiancé.
Cold-hearted and indifferent female lead + Scheming and subservient CEO male lead
Intro 1:
“I know she doesn’t love him.”
With blood trickling from his clenched fist, Rong Xiu gazed at the woman before him, his eyes clouded with anguish. Hidden in the wardrobe, he had witnessed Fan Xia – the woman he desperately loved – in an intimate embrace with her fiancé. Yet his heart still yearned for her, defying all reason.
Fan Xia, the elegant and composed assistant, carried something mysterious in her eyes whenever she looked at her fiancé, Wen Lan Sheng. Strange occurrences began to surface – secret meetings with the young Gu Jin Yi, an unexplained withdrawal of 5,000 yuan… Then suddenly, her fiancé’s sister, Wen Jing, violently attacked her.
In this matriarchal society, Rong Xiu had risen to become the chairman of a powerful healthcare conglomerate, breaking through gender prejudices. But for the first time, he willingly stepped into the shadows as the other man, disregarding his friends’ warnings to become her secret lover.
Because he had discovered the truth – Fan Xia wasn’t the pure angel everyone believed her to be. And perhaps, he was the only one capable of helping her execute her mysterious plan…
Intro 2:
Rong Xiu’s biggest regret in life was missing out on Fan Xia.
He secretly loved Fan Xia for 7 years.
Watched her go public with her boyfriend.
Watched her kiss her boyfriend at their wedding.
Until that man blissfully nestled in Fan Xia’s arms, obtaining everything he could only dream of.
The crazy jealousy stripped away his hidden secret love, layer by layer, burning like wildfire.
Fan Xia, how can I have you!
