The Ghost Lady Of The Duke's Family (20 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 158
Aeli glanced at Mari’s face for just a fleeting moment before turning her head away to avoid her gaze.
It wasn’t just that meeting such a piercing stare—one sharp enough to bore right through someone—made her uneasy.
More importantly, she worried that if she shifted her posture carelessly while shielding the documents, their contents might accidentally become visible to Mari.
‘Why on earth am I holed up in my room doing secret work…!’
Of course, it was precisely to avoid being discovered by others.
Responsibility for managing the household officially fell to the lady of the house, and the upcoming debutante ball at the ducal mansion was no exception.
But after all, the Duchess was already officially declared dead.
In such cases, it was customary for the head of the house to assume domestic duties as well, yet Lutis simply had no such luxury at the moment.
For one, the four years he’d spent away at war had left mountains of backlogged work he still hadn’t fully cleared,
…and now he’d also been reinstated as Captain of the Imperial Knights.
‘I must be out of my mind—really!’
Just thinking about it again made Aeli so exasperated that she hunched over completely, shielding the documents with her entire body.
She was still a princess of the Empire, after all—neglected by the Empress though she may be.
How could he have brought her straight back to the mansion the very same day he’d gone to settle things?
Only later did she learn it had been part of a deal to secure his reinstatement as Captain of the Knights.
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.]
