Here is the English translation of the Korean paragraph:
As I approached the direction where the sound came from, I saw Haldin huddled in one corner of the garden.
Blair hurriedly approached Haldin.
“Are you okay—”
But the moment she reached out to touch his back, Haldin forcefully pushed her away.
“Get away!”
In the heat of the moment, Blair was thrown back without any restraint.
Her bruised buttocks smarted, but her surprise at the situation outweighed the pain. It was the first time someone had shown such clear hostility towards me.
Though the situation was bewildering, Blair’s concern for Haldin took precedence. Blinking her eyes in a daze, she quickly got up.
“Are you okay?”
The look in Haldin’s eyes wavered for a moment when he saw Blair, who had fallen, but it quickly turned cold. In fact, it became even more intense.
“Didn’t you hear me say ‘get lost’?”
The courtesy due to a princess had long been discarded.
Haldin approached Blair threateningly, muttering to himself.
“If you don’t want to die, leave.”
In Haldin’s voice as he said this, there was a strange vitality.
Blair instinctively shrank back at the intense words, but when she looked into his eyes, she couldn’t move away. No, she didn’t want to.
Despite his harsh words, Haldin’s blue eyes, twisted in pain, somehow looked terribly lonely.
Suddenly, the conversation that Esmeralda had had with me yesterday came to mind.
“Honestly, Haldin is not an easy child. He has a lot of emotional scars, so he’s not good at dealing with people.”
Certainly, Haldin didn’t seem friendly, and he didn’t seem like a good person, just as she had said.
But…
“He’s not a bad person.”
He was just a boy who found it difficult to cope with the sadness that had been left behind.
“Wait a moment!”
Blair, who had been staring at Haldin, suddenly remembered something, turned around, and rushed into the banquet hall. She quickly retrieved her belongings and hurriedly came out.
Running around like this wasn’t very ladylike, but Blair was in a hurry. It was like when she had gone to get food for the cat that had appeared in the courtyard.
“Ha… Ha…”
When she returned to the courtyard, Haldin was nowhere to be seen.
Blair, who was wandering through the garden, found him on the opposite side of the wall where he had been before. Haldin was leaning against the wall with his face buried in his knees.
“Is he in a lot of pain?”
Thinking about how Haldin had been retching, Blair worried that she should bring medicine instead. She approached him with concern.
At that moment, a rough voice characteristic of an adolescent boy came from Haldin, who had his face buried in his knees.
“Why are you here again?”
Although his annoyance was evident, his tone was deliberately polite this time.
Before Haldin could push her away again, Blair reached over his knee and placed her possession on his hand.
“I’ll lend you this.”
Only then did Haldin raise his head and see what was in his hand. It was a rabbit fur earmuff.
“It’s a rabbit fur earmuff, and it muffles sound well.”
This earmuff would help dampen the sound. Since it was winter, no one would find it strange even if he wore earmuffs.
“And it’s warm and very soft.”
The earmuff, made of rabbit fur, was incredibly soft. It was so pleasant to touch that you would want to keep touching it. When you touched the fur, it made you feel better.
“Maybe it will improve the Duke’s mood?”
With a puzzled look, Haldin alternated between the earmuff and Blair, whose eyes were sparkling.
At that moment, just as Haldin was about to say something, a maid’s voice came from behind.
“Your Highness, are you here?”
Hearing approaching footsteps, Blair quickly got up. If Haldin was discovered hiding here, it would ruin what he had endured at the banquet today.
“I’ll keep today’s events a secret.”
Here is the English translation of the Korean paragraph:
Blair quickly turned the corner and hurried towards the maid, leaving Haldin behind. Although her hand, holding the earmuff, felt empty, her heart was light.
That day, as she did before going to sleep, Blair made a wish.
“Please make my mother love me.
Please make my mother and the Empress become close friends.”
To the wishes she made every day, she added one more special wish that day.
Even though she couldn’t stand the person who was stealing the Empress’s attention…
“Well, still, please make Duke Delmarck happy.”
“So, did the former Empress arrange for the first meeting between the lady and the Duke?”
Agnes listened with interest to Blair’s story, even though it was unrelated to her.
What Blair had told Agnes was that they had played cards the day before the New Year’s ceremony and that Haldin had also attended the banquet. She didn’t mention that he had run away from the banquet that day.
It was an old story, and even if someone found out today that he had run away that night, no one would dare to mock him now.
Haldin was now the Empire’s top knight and a war hero.
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…?
