Blair headed to the greenhouse where Agnes was waiting.

Agnes, who had been reading a book, noticed Blair entering the greenhouse and stood up to greet her.

“You look healthy today, madam.”

Agnes’ words seemed to carry no particular meaning, but Blair felt a bit embarrassed.

A month ago, during the time she was held captive by Herdin, it was hard for her to come out of the bedroom. During that time, Blair hadn’t met Agnes for about ten days.

Whether it was because she couldn’t leave the bedroom due to Herdin’s captivity or because she couldn’t overcome fatigue and fell asleep on days when he wasn’t around.

When they finally met after ten days, Agnes had expressed concern, saying, ‘You seem to have lost some vitality.’ Mason might not have told others the truth about the owners’ circumstances, but it still made her uncomfortable.

So today, it was inevitable that she looked healthier. The torment that haunted her sleep every night had disappeared.

Blair casually replied, “Is that so?”

“Yes. Perhaps it’s because the weather has cleared up? Anyway, I’m glad you seem to be getting better.”

After exchanging pleasantries, the two began a light conversation about daily matters.

Agnes mainly talked about small incidents with her family, while Blair shared her feelings about Bbibi’s growth.
“Shall we talk about memories related to fire today? It’s okay to talk about memories before the accident or after the accident. It would be even better if it’s a memory that the madam can talk about happily.”

Agnes, as always, was about to start counseling when Blair interrupted her.

“Um, madam.”

“Yes?”

“When would it be possible to try hypnosis?”

At the sudden mention of the word, Agnes’ gaze at Blair deepened.

“What happened?”

Instead of answering, Blair’s pupils shook.

Agnes, who had been observing Blair, knew that Blair couldn’t lie.

“May I ask what happened? Of course, if it makes the madam feel more comfortable to talk about it to me.”

As Blair hesitated, Agnes added as if reading Blair’s mind.

“I won’t disclose the stories we discuss from now on. It’ll be our secret.”

Agnes reporting counseling content to Herdin was already an agreed-upon matter with Blair. This counseling was part of the process of approaching the truth behind the incident ten years ago.

After a moment of hesitation, Blair finally spoke.

“The madam mentioned that you’ve been serving the Delmarc Duchy for a long time, right?”

“Yes. Both my husband and I have been from the noble family of Delmarc since our marriage.”

After hearing her answer, Blair, who had maintained a long silence, cautiously asked.

“What kind of person is the duke that the madam knows?”
In my past life, I returned to the past and became his wife once again. We spent many nights together and became intimately familiar with each other’s most private places.

But I still don’t understand him.

I wonder what he’s thinking, if he’s truly a bad person who might want to kill me.

According to Agnes, she had counseled him ten years ago when Herdin lost his parents in an unfortunate accident.

Maybe she knows him better. At least better than herself, who is nothing but a pretense of a wife.

“I… still don’t know him well.”

Blair, looking at her eyes reflected in the teacup, lowered her gaze.

At this moment, Blair hoped that no one, not even herself, knew the emotions revealed in her eyes.

“Your Excellency, I’ve returned―”

Ruth, who had just entered the office, furrowed her brow. The scent of smoke lingered in the air as soon as she opened the door.

The office was filled with smoke.

‘I thought he would cut down on it after getting married.’

Herdin was a persistent smoker. After getting married, he seemed to cut back for a while, but eventually, he returned to his old habits a few months ago, around the time Ruth noticed.

‘Since then, it seems like His Excellency hasn’t been sleeping with the madam… I wonder if it’s just a coincidence.’
Ruth, who had been lost in thought for a moment, dismissed the rising questions. She shouldn’t try to find out about the master and madam’s affairs, and there was no need to know.

Herdin, who had set down his pipe, asked, “How did it go?”

“As you wished, it was resolved well. The pricing was adjusted appropriately, and the negotiations have started.”

“Good job. You can leave now.”

Ruth, who had been about to offer a word of advice, closed her mouth. Herdin was relatively lenient with his subordinates, but that didn’t mean he wasn’t intimidating.

For whatever reason, it was better not to provoke him during this uncomfortable mood of Herdin’s.

“Then, I’ll see you tomorrow.”

Ruth, holding the documents, nodded. Herdin acknowledged her farewell with a slight nod.

As Ruth left the office, the room fell silent, with only the sound of the clock’s second hand ticking away.

Herdin, who had been smoking, looked at his desk. Over the neatly organized desk, the image of Blair lingered.

The woman who had sprawled on his desk.

Just imagining it brought forth a desire akin to pain. Irritation surged.

My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)

Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.

Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.

Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.

“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”

Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.

A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.

“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”

Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?

As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.

Gu Sui: “……”

He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?

Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.

Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.

Hmm… she looked a little familiar.

It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.

Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.

“Finally, I found you.”
