“What? Really?”
Rose was chatting with Jane, who had just finished work. As they were in a cafe with private rooms, Rose could comfortably discuss her ex-husband’s marriage.
The wedding they hadn’t seen until the end remained exciting throughout. Laughter continued between them.
Jane, after taking a bite of a cookie on the table, smiled.
“Yes! I can’t believe how surprised everyone was when they found out.”
“Really impressive, incredible. How did you even think of following them on their honeymoon?”
“During the meal, she sneaked out and secretly got on the carriage. She probably begged the Marquis to take her along. The newly arrived Marquis’s wife must have felt quite pitiful, though.”
It was a frightening level of obsession. It seemed like if you wanted to snatch someone else’s man, you had to put in some effort.
“Tiring. Why does she live like that?”
Rose was curious about the structure of Donna’s brain.
“The Countess almost grabbed her back and almost made her fall. However, she didn’t properly express her anger in front of others.”
“She let her guard down. Donna probably didn’t expect to be followed on the honeymoon.”
“When she returns, the Countess told her to report to her immediately. It made us nervous for no reason.”
Jane imitated Tercia’s expression, even mimicking her vocal tone.
Amused by the ridiculous sight of Jane, Rose burst into laughter.
“Really, she’s persistent.”
Donna’s relentless pursuit, rushing endlessly, seemed similar to a moth heading toward a flame.
Although Rose had known her for ten years, she had never realized there was such a stubborn side to her. If she had used that determination for studying, she might not have been unemployed her whole life.
Well, the house was wealthy, so maybe she had been playing around with it.
While Jane laughed heartily, suddenly her expression darkened, and she sighed.
“Ah… Now the atmosphere in the Marquis’s house seems very grim.”
She spoke as if she were a dying person, grabbing her head as she continued.
“It will definitely turn into a battlefield. It was satisfying to deceive Donna… but… I don’t think I can handle that child.”
It was probably the same for the other servants. Even though they had acted relying on Tercia as a reliable shield, Donna wouldn’t stay quiet with all the facts. It was uncertain how long Donna would stay at Wence Marquis’s house.
It would have been nice if she had stayed until Donna was chased away…
“Are you worried?”
With Rose’s affectionate words, Jane nodded weakly.
“Then, do you want to quit?”
“No… I can’t. I have only four younger siblings under me, so I can’t quit immediately. In fact, there’s no job that pays as much as this, and I get paid about 1.5 times more than the income of ordinary commoners. Besides, Cedric, though quite strict, is generous when it comes to employee benefits, unlike other nobles. My salary is twice as high as people in the same position, and the bonuses are quite generous. In other families, there is no case where a servant is given ‘vacation,’ but this place is different. The Wence Marquis’s house is truly a dream workplace. So, everyone endures Donna’s tyranny and stays attached to the mansion. If I don’t get fired, I could change jobs, but there’s no mansion that can match the Wence Marquis’s in terms of salary or welfare.”
“Hmm…”
Rose, who had been listening to Ray’s concerns, looked at her with a mischievous smile.
“Jane.”
“Yes…”
“It might be a bit intrusive, but how much is your current salary?”
“What? I’m getting 2 million less.”
It was an amount that easily exceeded the average, earning 80 to 100 thousand normally. It seems the Wence Marquis’s house paid quite well in terms of salary.
Rose smiled gently at Jane and whispered.
“I’ll give you more than that. Work with me.”
“What? But…”
Miss Rose doesn’t have money.
Jane bit back the words that were about to overflow from her throat. No matter how close their relationship was, Rose was her master. She couldn’t speak disrespectful words in her presence.
Rose looked at Jane, who couldn’t say anything, with a smile on her face.
“I received a large investment not long ago. I’m planning to start a business.”
“What? A business? Then Sir Gwyn also…!”
In Jane’s quick-witted mind, puzzle pieces began to fit together. Rose’s words about bringing her here. It seemed to mean this.
“How about it? Will you join me?”
The answer was already decided.
Jane shook her head vigorously and replied.
“Of course!”
“All right. Let’s start negotiating the contract terms right away.”
At Rose’s words, Jane’s eyes sparkled.
“First, keep it a secret that I’m starting a business until the outline is clear. Don’t tell anyone until it takes a clear shape.”
“Yes, yes! I can keep that level of secret.”
“Good, I trust you. You’ll be in charge of middle management.”
“What specific tasks will I be in charge of?”
“I’m going to do distribution. You just need to handle customer service—listen to customer complaints and provide compensation accordingly.”
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…?
