I did not miss the moment Stella’s expression faltered.
“Saint?”
She opened her eyes wide as if she knew nothing, even her eyes seemed to worry about the Saint.
“Is something wrong with your body? Suddenly the utensils…”
“Ah, that’s right.”
Stella quickly regained her surprised and faltering expression.
“When did I drop the utensils? I must have lost strength in my hand, mesmerized by the two of you looking like a picture.”
Stella hurriedly picked up the utensils and gave an awkward smile.
“I’m sorry. I must have interrupted your good time.”
Dropping utensils during a meal is an undignified act. But it was a good excuse, given the exceptional situation.
‘I knew it would come to this.’
I looked at Stella and smiled kindly.
“May I make a request of the Saint?”
“To me?”
“Yes, it’s a request that only the Saint can fulfill now.”
Stella furrowed her brows as if worried.
“I have my position, so I can’t just grant a request.”
“If it’s hard for the Saint, it’s okay to refuse.”
A compassionate Saint does not refuse others’ requests capriciously.
‘Stella is such a saintly figure…’
Stella glanced at the priest’s eye and nodded slightly.
“If I can help the lady, please ask me anything. What is your request?”
I returned Stella’s gift with a pretty smile.
“Please congratulate our future together instead of this relic.”
The Saint blinked slowly.
“What?”
“I understand your concern, but the relic is too precious a gift. There are people who need it more than me.”
I naturally placed the hand with the ring on the table and looked at Johann.
“So I’d rather have the Saint congratulate us on this meaningful moment. I think it would be very happy to be congratulated by the Saint.”
Stella couldn’t answer right away.
She looked at Johann with stiff, frozen lips, as if time had stopped. Then Johann tenderly held my hand with the ring and asked.
“Is it okay without such a blessing?”
“But all weddings receive the blessing of a priest.”
I laughed like a new bride.
“If the Saint congratulates us, it’ll feel like we’re having a wedding.”
“A wedding feeling…”
Johann nodded as if lost in thought for a moment.
The Saint hesitated to take back the gift she had readily given.
‘But she must take it, right?’
Just as Stella’s excuse for dropping the utensils earlier was appropriate, my excuse was also appropriate.
It would be difficult to grumble later about refusing a gift given in good faith.
“It’s a gift prepared for the lady though…”
“Of course I’d like to have it, but I think receiving the Saint’s blessing now is more meaningful. It’s hard to have the Saint with us like this, fatefully.”
Certainly, as a Saint, she must be accustomed to blessing prayers.
‘It’s not something that takes divine power, so she can’t even make the excuse that it’s hard.’
I looked at Stella’s face worriedly.
“Did I ask the Saint too much? I’m sorry.”
If she stayed still, she would look like someone who didn’t want to congratulate.
‘What if I misunderstood and said something strange?’
Stella fiddled with the relic box as if uneasy.
(This is a time separator.)
At the time when the twilight is late.
The Duke and Duchess of Libertan were moved from the prison to the execution ground.
Originally, the crime of treason was publicly executed in front of the citizens. However, the execution of the Duke and Duchess of Libertan was carried out in secret.
Officially, it was to prevent confusion among the citizens.
But the Emperor knew in advance.
The reason for executing secretly was to make them nonexistent by executing them officially, a fact known to the Duke of Blanchet.
Fear crept into the eyes of the Duke and Duchess of Libertan, hung on the gallows.
“We can’t die like this. Call Estelle, tell her we are like this–”
Watching the struggling Duke and Duchess of Libertan, the executioner smirked.
“Don’t worry too much. Once you are burned, such thoughts will completely disappear.”
“We are going to die like this…….”
“Everyone does. Right before death.”
At the moment the executioner was about to light their feet on fire,
“You will end up screaming for death later.”
‘Although, by the order of the Duke of Blanchet, life is snuffed out just before it is extinguished.’
But they will feel the pain of their entire body burning until then.
“Don’t worry.”
The executioner grinned and was about to set fire to the two people’s feet.
“Stop!”
From afar, the Emperor’s messenger ran up.
“Stop the execution!”
(This is a time separator.)
Stella’s face turned pale as she pursed her pink lips. The priest chastised her.
“Holy Lady. Has your body not recovered yet?”
Stella lifted her eyelids with difficulty.
“Am I showing fatigue?”
“Holy Lady, of course you are showing fatigue.”
“I tried my best…….”
From Stella’s eyes, rounded like a crescent moon, a pitiful look emerged.
“There’s no need to be like that. You were already often sick, and even in rest, you used your sacred power because of unnecessary people[—]”
The priest was about to become angry but closed his mouth.
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…?
