I wondered why the memories of that time came to mind.
It seems to have been to meet you.
Benjamin also read her change. He turned his head towards the restaurant entrance.
“Do you know the person?”
“Yes?”
“You look pale.”
“Um. It used to be, but not now.”
A familiar man looked around and took a seat by the window. After that, a few more of the man’s party arrived.
With thick blonde hair, even wearing a solid uniform.
And a neat posture.

‘Mogens Beber’
The eldest son of the Beber family, and once her husband.
It was when Charlotte was abandoned in front of death. The Beber family was the one who watched that death most closely.
A neat face turned this way. Mogens didn’t recognize her and looked away again.
The tomb of my past life.
My grave.
The man who stood on that grave.
Charlotte pulled her gaze and gave a small smile to Benjamin.
“Shall we get up?”
“What about the meal?”

“If Your Highness is done, let’s get up.”
Benjamin willingly tidied up the dining place. As he passed by, Mogens turned his head.
It was a fleeting moment, but their eyes met. Mogens recognized Benjamin at once and approached.
“Your Highness.”
“No grand greetings outside.”
Mogens was exactly as she remembered. There was not a trace of discomfort on his neat face.
The scoundrel remained, offering a handshake to her with his neat posture.
“Mogens Beber.”
Charlotte responded with a tilt of her head.
“I’m Charlotte.”

Mogens paused as if the name Charlotte was familiar. His gaze scanned her.
Mogens finally figured out why the name was familiar and responded late.
“Charlotte Tutor.”
“What’s that, Mogens, did you know her?”
His close friends looked at me.
‘Are you breaking her leg? Tsk, hide it out of sight.’
Another dirty memory came to mind.
My body’s nerves were just numb.
You treated me as waste.
Charlotte chuckled, chewing over the memory.

Mogens introduced her.
“This is the young mistress of the Tutor.”
“The Tutor as in the Tutor Count’s house? Was there a young mistress of this age there……?”
“Quiet down. What sort of rudeness you are… I apologize, young mistress.”
It was more natural that they did not recognize Charlotte.
One of the side effects that arose when Charlotte couldn’t socialize due to nursing her sick mother was that she lost her presence.
“What is it.”
Charlotte shrugged.
“I didn’t know you thought so highly of me.”
That hypocrisy and that pretense are disgusting.

“Your Highness.”
There’s no more conversation to be had.
Charlotte called Benjamin softly.
“Let’s go.”
(This is a time delimiter.)
“Who was that scoundrel from what family?”
“He’s the eldest son of Beberga. He’s one of the Empress’s forces, and one of the families close to Tyutega.”
If I were to be tied to Tyutega, I would have been dragged to Beberga and almost held a wedding ceremony just like I was kidnapped.
“Will it end in divorce?”
The procedure is already underway in Windsor, so there’s nothing special. It’s over.
Who abandoned whom first? Did I abandon? Did you abandon?

Charlotte is the only daughter of Tyutega, but she doesn’t have to worry about what happens after the divorce.
Now it’s over. I really let go. Charlotte supported herself on her knees, gasping.
Her long hair flowed down as she hung her head. Her bloodshot eyes hid in the shadows when they were obscured from her sight.
How many years has it been? How many decades did that scoundrel cling to and lose my life?
One side of my cheek was almost crushed in the fire.
And my body was paralyzed with lunatic disease, and the day I was left on one side of the sickbed.
You told me. Even to the last breath, it’s shameful.
The stubborn breath doesn’t know it’s shameful, and it reveals your existence.
“Charlotte.”
Someone called her.

“Charlotte.”
Charlotte closed her eyes.
“Charlotte Windsor.”
The shadows tightened. A great presence covered her.
“Lift your head.”
Benjamin approached and stood. Their distance became closer and closer, and Benjamin stopped in front of Charlotte’s small head.
Charlotte lifted her head and met Benjamin’s eyes. He just looked down even when he saw her bloodshot eyes.
“Are you crying?”
“No.”
“Biting your lips won’t hold back the tears.”

Benjamin laughed and tapped her nose. Charlotte hid her body under his shadow.
She slowly caught her breath. She forcibly calmed her breathing, which was getting faster and faster.
Benjamin reassured Charlotte’s head, asking:
“Are you okay?”
“Thanks to your concern.”
“That’s a relief. But now we have to move. It’s time for the people to leave Tyutega.”
Benjamin smoothly grabbed Charlotte’s wrist. As Benjamin gently pulled her wrist to leave, she was swept away again.
“Uncle is very wary of His Majesty.”
“He’s a bit harsh to me.”
“But. In these days, I think I know a little why.”

I think I know why Aster was wary of Benjamin.
He naturally controls people.
The palace is prey in front of a snake. Someday, he will chew and swallow it all.
There is no doubt about that fact.
In the past life, Benjamin killed his family and relatives and continued his tyranny.
The past him was alone. He sat on the throne and ruled alone.
In the end, he broke and suppressed people with a reign of terror and squeezed them into his clutches.
“Your Majesty is ruling alone even now.”
You are standing alone now.
“I think I know why Tyutega disliked Your Majesty.”
ads
“Tyutega dislikes me? That’s a pleasant surprise. It’s much better to be hated by the Empress’s dog than to be loved.”
Benjamin looked down on people with the eyes of a ruler.
The crushing gaze was familiar.
How long will you stand alone?
In the past life, he continued his tyranny until she died.
‘But I don’t know anything after I died.’
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
