“I forgot to mention the other day. I don’t stand out because I usually move around like this. Ah- and this is why I came today.”
Theron had moved to sit in front of me and placed something on the desk.
‘Is this… an ID card?’
It was my new ID card, which I hadn’t received the final payment for because I was busy saving Reus.
‘It’s real. My new ID card…’
I was so ecstatic to finally hold it, but it felt surreal. I kept fidgeting with the ID card.
“Do you like it that much?”
I bit my lower lip to suppress a smile and nodded slightly.
‘Of course, I’m happy… It’s worth more than 100 million rupees!’
It wasn’t an exaggeration to say I had lived for this since I was a child. How much had I fretted while living in the Ibelr Count’s house to gather 100 million!
Theron kept chuckling, then handed me something else.
“This is an account made under that name.”
“But there’s money in it…”
I had assumed the account, created under a new identity, would be empty, but there was a significant amount of money in it.
In fact, the amount felt enormous to me.
“Ah, that? It’s money that came from the Ibelr Count’s house recently. As for the properties you brought as a dowry, it will take some time to convert them into cash.”
That meant…
‘The money wasn’t earned in a legitimate way.’
Considering my father used all means to accumulate wealth, I didn’t feel too sorry for him.
“From now on, money from the Ibelr Count’s house will only go into that account. I can keep bringing it to you, or you can manage it yourself. What do you want to do?”
Honestly, I was so satisfied with the money currently in the account that I wanted to keep it in my room and look at it every day.
‘Still, it’s best to be cautious until I leave the empire.’
“I would prefer if Theron continues to handle it.”
“Alright, then.”
I thought Theron had finished his business, but instead, he walked over to the sofa and lounged comfortably, watching me intently.
It seemed like he was observing me, or maybe assessing something.
“Is it hard living with Reus?”
“…It’s not too difficult.”
“You’re not saying it’s easy, though.”
“…….”
“I’m surprised, actually. Thought you might have run away by now.”
Of course, it’s been challenging at times, and sometimes I get scared when his behavior in the novel comes to mind…
‘But it’s much better than being at Ibelr.’
Here, not only is the food of high quality and served regularly, but desserts are also provided after meals.
No one treats me with contempt or violence like Feria, my father, or Briella. Most importantly, the bed is incredibly warm and comfortable.
There are countless reasons why living here is better than at Ibelr.
‘Well… Reus does ignore me in a different way.’
When it’s just the two of us, sometimes Reus behaves as if he has completely forgotten my existence. But even that isn’t too uncomfortable for me.
In fact, I prefer that to engaging in meaningless conversations.
“But sometimes, you know.”
“Yes?”
“If it gets too hard, tell me. He might look calm, but he has a terrible temper.”
Lying sprawled on the sofa, Theron continued.
“I can give you a breather. If things get too tough, I can arrange for you to leave for Belliarta right away.”
“Ah… Thank you for your concern.”
I was sincerely grateful, but Theron burst out laughing.
“Ah, sorry. It’s just that I’m used to dealing with ruthless people, so this reaction is new to me. This is amusing in its own way.”
‘What’s so funny about it…’
I gave him a slightly annoyed look, but Theron just laughed heartily again.
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
[Note: This story will not specifically point out the male lead’s reincarnation time point; it’s all in the details. Whenever you feel that the male lead is acting strangely, he has most likely been reincarnated.]
