I swear, it was a man I had seen for the first time in my life.

It was certain, for there was no way to erase from my memory a person with such a prominent appearance.

Despite my question, the man did not answer, he only stared at me.

An indescribable emotion shimmered in his red eyes. I couldn’t understand why he was looking at me like that.

Regardless, I couldn’t leave this man who knew my name from my previous life alone.

“What did you ask?”

“…….”

It was then, when I was about to seriously question the man who seemed unwilling to open his mouth.

“Duke Ferdia!”

A familiar voice came from afar.

“Carlot?”

I turned my head in the direction of the voice. I couldn’t see Carlot’s appearance yet, but it seemed he was in a nearby alley.

‘I have to go back. But before that, I need to find out who this man is.’

I was thinking just that when

A strange scent brushed against the tip of my nose.

“I will come to you soon.”

A low, melodious voice reached my ears.

“……What?”

When I turned my gaze back to the front, the man had disappeared without a trace.

I stared blankly at the spot where the man had been just a moment ago.

‘What in the world?’

I felt as though I had been entranced.

It was a truly fleeting encounter, yet it felt like a long time had passed.

However, there was no time to be lost in such sentiments.

Carlot, who had spotted me, approached with large strides and grabbed both my shoulders.

“Hey, you……! How can you disappear all of a sudden? Where have you been?”

Carlot’s hand tightened, furrowing his brows. It didn’t hurt, but the pressure on my grabbed shoulder caused me to unconsciously frown.

“Do you know how dangerous it is to wander around without an escort? Even if it’s Twanet Street, if you wander alone.”

“Why?”

At my short question, Carlot hesitated, licked his lips, and blankly repeated.

“What?”

“I don’t understand.”

“What don’t you under.”

“Whether I live or die, it has nothing to do with you.”

Thump…….

Carlot’s hand, which had been gripping my shoulder, lost its strength and fell lifelessly.

It was an obvious statement, but Carlot’s surprised reaction still didn’t make sense to me.

Even if I wandered the streets without an escort and something bad happened, even if I died, it would have nothing to do with Carlot.

After all, I was nothing more than a bastard child to him, so my death wouldn’t mean anything. I knew that.

The person who wished for my disappearance more than anyone.

‘That’s you, Carlot.’

I remembered clearly.

Carlot’s words when I was young, telling the dirty bastard to die.

Carlot, younger than me, might not remember, but

I looked up at Carlot, whose thoughts were unreadable. I didn’t completely fail to guess why he was acting like this.

Carlot was the least like Ferdia among Ferdia’s people.

He had always sought acknowledgment from both the Duchess and the Duke.

So it was probably his pride that made him act like this after he had personally received the order to escort me from the Duke, and then lost me for a moment.

He must have been like that, as he hadn’t told anyone and had been looking for me alone.

‘If I had really been kidnapped, I might be dead by now.’

I thought leisurely as I looked up at Carlot.

“It’s over since I returned without anything happening.”

I was a little worried that he might ask where I had been, but strangely enough, Carlot didn’t ask anything.

He just looked at me with a baffling expression.

Was he feeling responsible for not properly escorting me?

Since I couldn’t deny that I had disappeared on my own, I added a word to placate Carlot.

“You don’t need to feel responsible for nothing. I won’t tell Father anything, so don’t make a needless fuss.”

Perhaps because of all the things I had done at once when I went out, fatigue suddenly washed over me. I longed to go home and take a bath in warm water.

“Let’s go back, Carlot.”

“…….”

I passed Carlot, who was standing with his fist clenched.

In his other hand, the parasol I had lost was tightly gripped.

[Star Icon][Star Icon][Star Icon] On the way back, the carriage was steeped in silence. Carlott stared out the window, his mouth tightly closed.

He seemed angry that I had acted on my own.

But what was surprising was that Carlott, whom I thought would be more furious, was quiet.

‘Has he grown up?’

No way.

As for Carlott, I had something more bothersome.

The man with red eyes who suddenly appeared and grabbed me.

“Yoon Gaeul.”

I didn’t hear it wrong. That man really called my name from my previous life.

Not Elodie Ferdia, but Yoon Gaeul.

It was not a light issue to just pass by. Lost in thought, I made various hypotheses.

‘Has that man also reincarnated into this book?’

The most likely thing was that the man was in the same situation as me, reincarnated into the book. Because there’s no guarantee that I’m the only one who reincarnated.

Judging by the fact that he knew my name, he might have been someone who knew me in my previous life.

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.]
