“Right, I heard that much… but could I even ride a horse?”
It was possible that the original Luella could ride, but she herself had never even seen a horse before coming here, let alone tried riding one.
Luella shrugged and walked into the bathroom. As she sank into the fragrant bath, Shuna followed her in, pouring hot water over her back.
“You couldn’t ride, Miss. But you had a riding accident. That’s why the maids were whispering about it.”
“Well, I must have tried to ride and fallen off. It’s fortunate I wasn’t seriously hurt…”
Luella, who had been leisurely soaking in the hot bath, sat up straight.
“Shuna, did you start working for me after that accident?”
“Yes.”
“What happened to the maid who was originally serving me?”
From what Shuna said, the previous maid was fired for failing to take good care of Luella and then mysteriously disappeared. Even her parents didn’t know she had quit, and she never returned.
It was very unusual for someone to vanish like that in a small town like Camun.
Perhaps the maid’s disappearance was related to Luella’s own death.
And after that accident, her soul ended up in Luella’s body.
“How did you end up serving me? I thought you said you had no experience.”
“That’s right. The Lady of Camun is not only the ruler of the Camun area but also the aunt of the King. It’s absurd to think that such an influential family, even if not directly related by blood, would employ someone like me, an inexperienced maid. Everyone thought it was strange.”
It was indeed suspicious. Especially since Hagen, her brother, had mentioned that she died from falling off a horse, and now she, Luella, also had a riding accident. It was uncomfortably coincidental.
This ominous premonition was hard to shake off.
What had been going on in that mansion? Luella pondered for a while and then asked Shuna.
“Did you notice anything strange while working?”
“Of course. The daily orders to send you to parties. Furthermore, you were told to stay at the party for at least two hours.”
“Yes, that. I also found it strange. Did anything happen at the mansion during those two hours when I was at the party?”
“No, not at all.”
“What did the others say about me and the Lady?”
Lady Camille despised the young lady immensely. Well, they were never on good terms, but it worsened after the marquis passed away.
Luella readily agreed, already aware of this from before.
“Exactly. I could tell she didn’t just dislike me a bit when she drove me out.”
“There’s a rumor that even your fall from the horse was orchestrated by Lady Camille.”
“Did she wish for me to die, too?”
Schuna hesitated to speak directly, silently nodding her head. Noticing Luella’s hardened expression, she added a few more words after a moment.
“And the reason she sent you to the party, despite knowing full well you’d be scorned, was likely to make you suffer humiliation. That happened after the incident, didn’t it?”
“The incident?”
Upon Luella’s questioning, Schuna quickly apologized.
“Oh, I’m sorry.”
“No, it’s okay. What incident are you talking about?”
“It’s about what happened with Sir Balder and Duke Sedes.”
The event that labeled her a fallen woman.
The atmosphere at the party had certainly been the worst at that time. Everyone avoided her as if she were an insect.
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.
