“I’ll pay for the sin of killing both of you in hell. So don’t resent me too much. Those who are still alive must live, right?”
I slowly lifted my head as if in a trance.
It wasn’t over yet.
Merial was dead, but the murderer who killed my daughter was alive.
By the time my thoughts reached that point, I was looking at the vase.
The flower that I had put for Merial had been withered for a long time.
Without hesitation, I pulled out the wilted flower and threw the vase on the floor.
Crash!
The broken vase pieces splashed around.
With a bleeding hand, I picked up the biggest and sharpest piece among the broken ones.
There was one last thing I could do for my daughter.
[This is the time separator]“Madam, what is.”
“If you don’t want to die, do as I say.”
The man who found me growling with a piece in hand backed away in horror.
He was Septer, Bake’s lieutenant.
“But, Madam, the blood, blood from your hand.”
“Prepare the carriage right now.”
“A, a carriage?”
“Hurry.”
When I aimed at the fragment again, Septer raised his hands in surrender, even more flustered.
But instead of reassuring him, I put more strength into my hand.
The ceramic fragment I held without any protective gear dug into my flesh and left a deep wound, but I didn’t feel any pain.
It just felt annoying to see the blood dripping down.
“I’m going to Margaret right now. Get ready.”
“Mrs. Fisher has already left the capital.”
“I know that Margaret hasn’t left. Where she is, everything.”
At my forehand, Septer shut his mouth tight.
I stared at him with cold eyes and opened my mouth again.
“Don’t try to deceive me with nonsense and just follow my words. Otherwise, you won’t end up well.”
“Madam, please calm down. You can’t beat me with just that.”
“Even if you can’t win, you can hit me.”
“Ma, madam!”
As if to show off, I put the shard to my neck.
The sharp shard left a wound with just a slight touch.
“I won’t repeat the same words anymore. Prepare the carriage.”
“……”
“If not, I’ll stab it like this. And I’ll testify that you hurt me.”
“His Highness wouldn’t believe that.”
“I don’t care if he doesn’t believe. Anyway, the important thing is that I got hurt, and you are involved in this. You know better than anyone that you won’t end up well just with that.”
I might be risking my life, but the anxious one is Septer.
I stared at Septer’s trembling eyes and brought the shard closer to my neck.
“If you understand, don’t answer, just nod your head. And turn around.”
“……”
“Good. Just move straight like that. I will move with some distance, and if someone else comes, you handle it. You get it?”
This time again, Septer replaced the answer by nodding his head.
I moved following his steps, not relaxing my tension.
But my steps stopped the moment I got out of the corridor.
There were no people in the corridor I had walked so far, it was too lucky to just pass.
Just like the time when I found the secret meeting between Bake and Margaret.
I remembered the empty corridor and spat out a dry laugh.
I doubted it, but the suspicion had already grown.
“……Is Margaret here now?”
“Ye, yes?!”
His flustered face was enough of an answer.
I held back the laughter that was coming out and tightened my eyes.
“Madam, it seems like there’s a misunderstanding.”
“Where is she?”
“Madam.”
“Where are the two of them now.”
I twisted my face and gritted my teeth laughing.
There was no need for an answer again this time.
The answer that could come out when thinking about the place where I met Septer was limited.
Leaving Septer, who could not stop me or tell Bake, behind, I walked.
It was the path leading to our couple’s bedroom.
[This is the time separator]“How about it, do you feel a little better?”
“We shouldn’t be like this.”
“What does it matter. One cannot always be sad. You need to rest a bit too.”
“What if Liviana were to see.”
“You’ve seen it, haven’t you. She’s been shut in Meriel’s room all day. You called me for that reason, didn’t you?”
A familiar place, a familiar voice, and familiar people.
I exhaled a futile breath while looking at the scenery through the slightly opened door.
“Even so, it still feels strange.”
“Really, your problem is being too kindhearted. After all, she’s not your child.”
“But I still have feelings since I’ve seen her grow.”
“I understand your feelings, but stop with the gloomy thoughts. It was something inevitable after all.”
Margaret naturally climbed onto Beike’s lap and embraced his face.
It seemed Beike was used to such behaviour, as he naturally rested his head on Margaret’s chest.
“Meriel’s death was a regrettable but inevitable event. With her gone, everything gets resolved. The connections between Liviana and Duke Pieren, the issue of succession, all of it.”
“…..”
“So, that’s why you left me alone.”
“I was just trying to protect my child.”
“That child is our child. Yours and mine.”
“…..”
“It’s okay. Don’t make that face. I know everything. How long have I known you for, to not understand your intentions.”
Margaret gently stroked behind Beike’s ears with a tender touch.
Beike closed his eyes and completely entrusted his body to her.
“…..Even if I try to act fine, it’s hard to look at Liviana’s face.”
“It’s okay. Strictly speaking, it’s not you who stained your hands with blood, it’s me. At least, you can act honourably in front of Liviana.”
Your wife won’t know anything.
Margaret whispered into Beike’s ear and brought her lips to his neck, as if to show off.
At that moment, Margaret was looking at me and smiling.
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…?
