“Did Liviana lose her memory?”
“Yes. According to the doctor, she seems to have lost almost a decade of memories.”
“What are the chances of her regaining her memory?”
“We’ll have to wait and see, but even the doctor can’t guarantee if her memories will return.”
“Then isn’t that a good thing? She’s forgotten everything about us.”
Margaret, who had embraced Bake from behind, brought her lips to his ear.
From her current position, Bake couldn’t see her, so she could freely display her displeasure.
Although a whispering voice in one’s ear should be sweeter than honey.
“Is it a good thing?”
Bake licked his lips and then emptied his glass.
The sensation of the strong liquor sliding down his throat was bitter, but not as hot as the jealousy boiling inside him.
“Isn’t it?”
“She won’t believe anything I say. She thinks I’m deceiving her with an unbelievable lie.”
“Well, if it’s Liviana from a decade ago, that could be possible. That event would have been something that absolutely couldn’t happen to Liviana back then.”
It’s not like you know her.
Margaret, noticing the mood, swallowed her next words and tightened her grip on Bake.
Now was not the time to oppose Bake’s feelings.
“So, you failed to convince her?”
“Yes. To convince her, I would have had to bring someone from the Craiton family, or Duke Pieren, and all I heard were those words.”
“Did you tell her they’re dead?”
“I did, but there’s no reason for her to believe me. It only made her more distrustful. All the servants who worked in Craiton have been taken care of, so there’s no one to corroborate my story.”
If I had known this, I wouldn’t have killed them all to keep them quiet. The servants killed to prevent backlash turned out to be a poison instead.
Bake discontentedly licked his lips.
“What about calling in the people she was close to?”
“The people who were close to Liviana at the time she remembers were either from the Craiton or Pieren families. Most of them either disappeared like morning dew or ran away. The ones remaining are…”
No matter how much he tries to get away, it’s always him.
Bake emptied his glass once more at the sight of the emerging face of Calix.
Bang, the sound of the glass being put down echoed throughout the room.
“Oh, come to think of it, ten years ago was quite a while back. When the lovers of the century were in love.”
Margaret finally smiled at the sight of Bake gritting his teeth.
Things had gone wrong, but there was still a chance.
“What do you want to do?”
“What are you talking about?”
“Are you going to just leave Liviana as she is? Or, will you help her regain her memory?”
“….”
“Hmm, I see. It’s confusing. Whether Liviana remembers Meriel again or stays as she is, either situation is difficult for you.”
Instead of answering, Bake leaned more heavily into Margaret.
That alone was a sufficient answer.
He didn’t like to take action directly.
And Margaret prided herself on understanding him better than anyone else.
“So, how about we just watch for now?”
“Just watch?”
“We don’t know if her memories will come back. It would be better if we made the first move.”
“What if Liviana regains her memories?”
It was a tempting proposal, but there was a catch.
Just as the memories had suddenly disappeared, they could suddenly come back.
If Liviana, who had already tried to take her own life, learned the truth, it wouldn’t end with her falling from a window this time.
“But if we don’t act first, he will.”
“….”
“Don’t forget. He’s no longer a noble duke. You’ve heard the rumors. How he fought and won.”
“….”
“It won’t be any different this time. He will stop at nothing to regain his old lover.”
The news about Calix was already famous in the capital.
The duke’s lineage was now more accustomed to wearing bloody rumors than a goldthreaded cloak.
“But right now, there’s no one who can convince Liviana.”
“I’m here. Liviana’s old friend.”
“You are…”
“She can’t remember anyway, so what does it matter.”
“But still, you…”
Bake frowned and pushed Margaret away.
It would be troublesome if Liviana, who recognized Margaret, regained her memories.
“So, are you going to bring Duke Pieren? Or should we find that hidden kid and bring him?”
“Don’t speak nonsense.”
“Then just leave it to me. I’m better than this pretentious fellow. There’s no reason for me to speak of Meriel from my mouth.”
“……”
“Don’t worry. I will never do anything to provoke you unnecessarily. You know what I have done for you.”
Margaret poured a full glass of alcohol with a smile, and the duke took it as if it were a matter of course.
Margaret caressed his chest over his shirt as he gulped down his drink.
[This is the time separator]“Margaret!”
Riviana, who had found Margaret, ran to her and hugged her on the spot.
Margaret, without showing any sign of surprise, returned Riviana’s hug.
Perhaps she had been holding back a lot because as soon as Margaret patted her back lightly, Riviana broke down in tears.
“Did you hear the news? You must have been surprised?”
“Sniff, sniff…”
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.
