Betty tightly held Estelle’s hand and choked up. Many stories came to her mind, but she had very few words she could say. Only one question came out.
“Madam, what do you think of Master Yohan?”
“That’s…”
As the conversation turned to Yohan, Estelle’s face slightly stiffened.
“I don’t really know. I want to be a good wife.”
Her calm, rosy platinum hair had a hazy color, as if it could disappear at any moment. It was like a beautiful illusion.
“Madam, this might be a sensitive topic, but…”
“No, go ahead and ask.”
“I think… you might love Master Yohan.”
“Really?”
Estelle, who had a momentarily surprised expression, smiled bashfully.
“Does the Duke really love me to act like this?”
Betty tried to give Estelle as much trust and comfort as she could.
And so, the next day arrived. The day Estelle was going to see the Libertan Duke and Duchess.
[Star Icon][Star Icon][Star Icon]It was the day to see the Libertan Duke and Duchess. I prepared with Betty’s assistance.
I had been waiting for this day to come, but to be honest, it was a bit challenging to reach this point.
“I didn’t expect Yohan to ask such a question.”
Is he trying to get rid of me already? I was so scared that I trembled.
“Honestly, I don’t care what happens to the Libertan couple.”
I don’t know how my mind cleared so easily, but my blind love for the Libertan Duke and Duchess completely vanished.
So now, I felt just like an ordinary man.
“I just need to find clues about my curse, and that’s it.”
Of course, the curse itself was related to the fact that I was a fairy. Unfortunately, I couldn’t tell people about it.
“I’m more concerned about Yohan’s actions, but I can understand.”
Since I said I would meet the Libertan Duke and Duchess, I haven’t shown myself at all. It’s something that occasionally happened in the original story.
But what I found most strange was the behavior of the people in the Blanchett family!
“It’s okay, Madam. Everything will be fine.”
Suddenly, Betty comforted me, hugging me tightly and crying.
“Whenever you want to handle your duties as the Duke’s wife comfortably, I have prepared everything for you. So please use me as you wish. That’s how we treat subordinates anyway.”
I visited during my sober period, and Petricia had a cold but sad expression on her face.
“Madam, cheer up.”
Suddenly, the extensive variety of meals and the extraordinarily polite attitudes of the servants in the Blanchett Duke’s household felt very strange.
Even Erich was acting that way.
“I don’t trust you. However… this is just the bare minimum of my conscience.”
The man who used to pick a fight every time now gave a strange expression and left a gift. I was too scared to open it, fearing it might be cursed.
“Could it be that now he’s treating me well and being considerate to execute me for treason?”
It is said that death row inmates receive the best treatment the day before they die.
“But it’s not like I’m going to prison along with them, right?”
However, when Yohan arrived at the royal palace’s prison, he didn’t behave as I had expected.
“I can go in alone?”
“Isn’t Betty the bodyguard?”
I thought he would definitely be with me when I meet the Libertan Duke and Duchess.
“It might disturb my parents’ precious time together.”
“Is it alright to do that? Still, the Libertan Duke and Duchess are wrongfully accused of treason…”
“Of course, from my perspective, I don’t like the idea of my wife going to see the Libertans. They are traitors, after all. I’m afraid something might go wrong for my wife’s sake.”
Yohan pointed out the dangerous situation and placed his hand on my shoulder.
“But it’s your request, so I’ll make it happen in the way you want, regardless of my feelings. Does that sound good to you?”
“…Yes, it sounds good.”
If I expressed unnecessary anxiety, I might lose the chance to meet the Libertan Duke and Duchess.
“I’ll come back safely.”
“If there’s any trouble, I’ll step in immediately. I can’t compromise on that.”
Before entering with Betty, I looked back. Yohan waved his hand.
“Don’t forget that I’m here.”
It sounded somehow meaningful.
[Star Icon][Star Icon][Star Icon]A loud noise came from outside. The sound of guards moving.
The imprisoned Libertan Duke and Duchess reacted sensitively to the noise.
Then, slowly, their adopted daughter Estelle revealed herself inside the dark cell.
Next to her was a brownhaired maid who became the Duchess of Blanchett. She was dressed so well that one might mistake her for a proper Duchess.
“No, is it really…?”
What’s important is that Estelle came here on their own accord.
To save them!
“My dear.”
Roselia clung to Estelle with a sweet voice.
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.]
