When the two of them came out to the backyard, it was completely dark, and only the lamps placed here and there chased away the darkness, creating an atmospheric ambiance.

As they walked along the path in the backyard, the gradually growing bustling sounds became louder.

At the end, all the members of Delmark, who had finished preparing for the evening picnic, were gathered. Not only the servants but also the knights.

“You’ve come at the right time. The meat has just been fully cooked.”

Mason guided the two.

There, a huge fire was blazing, grilling deer meat. Blair, who noticed it, stopped in her tracks.

Even though she had fully recovered her memories of the accident, her fear of fire still lingered.

Especially, the fire, much larger than the candles she had practiced with, caused even more fear.

At that moment, Haldin, who noticed Blair frozen, lifted her hand in front of her eyes and diverted her attention.

“It’s okay.”

Simultaneously with the gentle voice settling in her ears, a large hand clasped Blair’s hand.

Blair, who subtly raised her head, met his blue eyes as deep as the lake. Looking into those eyes, the tension in her body gradually eased, as if melting away like a lake.

Then, suddenly, Ruth, holding a skewer with grilled meat, approached without taking her eyes off the fire.

“Here! Your Highness, my lady. Please try it. The first bite should be taken by you two.”

Blair, now understanding why the knights had been looking at them like hungry beasts, smiled after realizing.

“Thank you for your consideration.”

“You could have eaten first. It’s not poisoned, is it?”

“Then shall I eat first and digest it for you?”

Caligo, interrupting Haldin’s suspicion, jumped in unexpectedly.

Blair was quietly surprised by his appearance but didn’t show it. The current him was a loyal knight of Delmark who had done nothing wrong to me.

“Go ahead.”

Haldin grabbed the skewer offered by Ruth and took a bite of the meat.

Usually, nobles would always use cutlery for the sake of appearances when eating. However, for the knights of Delmark, who had been on battlefields and expeditions for a long time, eating grilled meat on a skewer was more familiar.

The custom of eating meat on a skewer remained.

The knights watching Haldin had saliva dripping down.

“How is it?”

Instead of answering the knights’ question, Haldin called Mason, who was waiting nearby.

“Mason.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

“Take them all and bring some drinks.”

The words meant allowing the knights to have drinks as well. Understanding the meaning, the knights erupted into cheers.

The knights whistled and shouted loudly as they followed Mason to the mansion to get drinks, and the remaining servants began to distribute the meat according to Ruth’s instructions.

A skewer with meat was handed to Blair, who was dazed by the atmosphere that had swept through.

“Go ahead. It seems to be safe without poison.”
Blair received a skewer of meat from Haldin. The well-grilled meat looked appetizing at first glance.

She was worried that the baby in her belly might reject it, but fortunately, she couldn’t smell the meat odor harshly, thanks to her father’s care.

Blair skewered the appetizing meat and took a bite. The rich juice spread in her mouth along with the scent of the fire, enhancing the taste.

Blair, diligently chewing and swallowing the meat in her mouth, felt someone’s gaze. When she lifted her head, she met eyes with Haldin, who had been quietly watching her.

Blair realized he was waiting for her reaction and spoke up.

“It’s delicious. Thank you, Haldin.”

As Blair smiled, Haldin finally smiled back and wiped the sauce on her mouth with his index finger.

By the time Blair finished eating one skewer of meat, the knights who had gone to the mansion returned with oak barrels on their shoulders.

“To infinite loyalty to Delmark!”

The excited knights poured drinks, declaring their loyalty. The filled glasses circulated freely among everyone gathered there.

At that moment, Caligo approached Blair with a pleasant smile, offering a fully filled glass.

“Please have a drink, my lady. It’s a token of appreciation for the delicious sandwiches you provided last time.”

Blair hesitated and couldn’t readily accept the glass.

Firstly, there might be a separate motive, but anyway, it was awkward for someone who had killed her in her past life to approach her so friendly.

Secondly, she couldn’t drink alcohol because of the baby in her belly.

However, caught in the dilemma of refusing in an awkward atmosphere, Haldin’s hand, unexpectedly interfering, took Blair’s glass away.

“Don’t give alcohol to a sick person.”

“Oh, my lady, are you not feeling well?”

“Ah… it’s not that, I’m just a bit tired.”

Blair mumbled in agreement with Haldin’s white lie. Worriedly looking at her, Caligo brought another skewer.

“Then eat a lot today. There’s nothing better than meat for energy recovery.”

This time, Haldin didn’t hold back either. Blair, bewildered, accepted the skewer handed to her by Caligo.

“Thank you. I’ll enjoy it.”

Male lead reborn without memories — but he still falls for her.

The person he finds displeasing in this life turns out to be his cherished wife-master in previous life…

Xie Zhi and Fang Xianxing who had known each other for less than three days through a blind date sat in the same car in front of the civil affairs bureau. They had a disagreement and failed to get married.

Xie Zhi immediately took out his phone, slid through his contacts, and randomly selected the next marriage candidate.

The woman snatched his phone and hung up. Looking at his phone wallpaper, she awkwardly changed the subject: “An ancient painting, eh? It looks pretty good, it’s just that the person in the painting looks a bit like me.”

When he heard this, he sarcastically mocked her for being so delusional, completely unaware that, the person in front of him was the reincarnation of Wen Ru, the famous prime minister of Yuan Shun whom he most admired…
