The voice, squeezed out as if in pain, was ominous. Brandon, as if accustomed to it, rubbed the goosebumps that suddenly appeared on his hand.

Sunlight came into the balcony. Aesella, who hadn’t slept a wink, kept staring at the pink diamond necklace. The diamond sparkled brilliantly in the sunlight.
“Miss always thought of you, Aesella. Really.”
The voice of the crying maid Sally echoed in Aesella’s ears. Aesella bit her lip.
She had already received the boutique clothes sent by her sister several days ago. Since then, Aesella had continuously thought about her sister.
Her sister, who seemed blunt. Her sister, who avoided me. Her sister, who didn’t smile.
But her sister, who always took care of me. Aesella knew best that it was genuine.
Every moment of Olivia’s appearance overlapped, plunging Aesella into confusion. Tears welled up over her lifeless purple eyes again.
“…Don’t leave. Talk to me at least.”
Aesella’s muttering voice trembled.
No, her sister tried to talk. Before her sister could speak, I pressured her. The words I said kept coming back, causing pain in my heart.
I couldn’t remember the expression my sister had at that time.
Yet all Aesella could resent Olivia for now was baseless resentment.
Thick tears rolled down her cheeks, dropping one by one. Tears left round wet marks on the quilt. Only the good things her sister had done kept coming to mind.
The further back the memories went, the more affectionate her sister was. Holding hands, playing, and secretly nursing when sick.
…Why did her sister suddenly treat me coldly from one moment to the next?
Suddenly, a question popped into her head, and Esella shook her head. What’s the use of all this? They say Mom died because of my sister.
Esella shook her head to stop thinking about Olivia. But once started, the thought wouldn’t leave her mind.
Maybe some fresh air will help. It was when Esella approached the balcony and opened the window.
“What? The first princess?”
Suddenly, Esella’s ears perked up. A voice from an unknown source sounded shocked.
“Shh! Be quiet! If Miss Esella hears you, you’ll be kicked out right away.”
“Lately, the lady doesn’t even open the window, let alone the door. By the way, is it true? The first princess has accepted Duke Vicander’s proposal?”
Esella unconsciously covered her mouth with her palm. Otherwise, she would have screamed in surprise.
What is going on?
“That’s not it.”
Another voice said bluntly.
“Duke Vicander wished to the Emperor, didn’t he? He asked for permission to marry the first princess.”
“What are you talking about!”
Esella let out a piercing scream. From the floor below, a surprised gasp was heard.
“Come up right now!”
It was unbelievable. It had to be a lie.
My sister, my sister sincerely loves the crown prince.
[This is the time separator]“I, that. It’s all in the newspaper, Miss. Please forgive me.”
Esella clutched the crumpled newspaper with trembling hands. The maids’ words were true. The Duke had wished for a marriage with my sister. Even to the Emperor.
War hero Casius was trying to separate the lovers so cowardly!
Suddenly, rumors about Duke Vicander popped into her head. Butcher, monster of the battlefield. There was nothing positive in those rumors.
She was so angry that she felt like her breath was being cut off. Tears seemed to well up in her eyes from the injustice.
The crown prince and my sister were very good lovers. I knew best how much my sister loved the crown prince.
No matter how bad the relationship with my sister was now, this was not it. She had to find out where her sister was and bring her quickly.
Esella left the room, steadying her trembling hands. As the youngest lady, who had been locking her door for days, came out, the servants’ eyes widened.
“Miss!”
“Father? No, Conrad elder brother?”
“Both are in the dining room.”
At Esella’s urgent voice, the maid quickly replied. Esella hurried to the dining room. Her legs were weak, but it was more important to tell her father the news.
Her father would be able to rescue her sister from the Duke’s hands. Just then, a maid was opening the door to the dining room. It was when Esella ran towards her.
“We can’t push Esella into the position of crown princess instead of Olivia, can we?”
Male lead is a clingy little husband
One-line summary: The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
Introduction:
One day, Lu Yuner’s soul transmigrates into a female-dominant world. She enters the Imperial Academy and takes up the position of a doctoral instructor, teaching classes and grading schoolwork.
One day, she encounters the young prince Su Qingwan secretly skipping class from the male academy.
As a result, Su Qingwan is punished.
From then on, Su Qingwan sees Lu Yuner as a “thorn in his side”.
But before long, this “thorn” becomes the person he cherishes most, and he goes to great lengths to win Lu Yuner’s affection.
Mini scene 1:
One day, the sun is high in the sky but Su Qingwan still hasn’t gotten up for class.
Servant Xiaoyuan: “Young prince, it’s time for class. You’ll be late otherwise.”
Su Qingwan says arrogantly: “I’m not going. I am the esteemed prince, my status is so noble, why should I suffer this hardship? Besides, isn’t learning all this just to please women? Hmph, they’re not worthy!”
Mini scene 2:
After Su Qingwan falls for someone, he completely changes. He no longer skips class and diligently learns how to be a good husband and father. But he discovers that Sister Yuner is always surrounded by admirers.
Drunk and overcome with jealousy one day, he clings to Lu Yuner, crying beautifully like a pear blossom in the rain.
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan likes Sister Yuner.”
Lu Yuner: “Young prince, you’re drunk.”
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan isn’t drunk. Qingwan likes Sister Yuner, likes you so much, likes you to bits…” Before he can finish, Lu Yuner’s eyes flash with emotion and she leans in closer.
[Reading Guide]
1. The female lead is gentle, gracious, humble and polite but not weak. The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
2. 1v1, a bit torturous in the beginning but definitely sweet later on.
