Orlando nodded in satisfaction, perhaps pleased with my answer.

The chef, who had been waiting in the background to avoid interrupting the conversation, carefully approached Orlando and asked.

“Shall I serve the main course?”

“Yes. Let’s continue the conversation while we eat.”

As Orlando’s permission was given, more food was brought onto the table as if they had been waiting.

[This is the time separator]

A while ago, Orlando discovered an uncomfortable fact.

The reactions of the nobles to the news of Tanashia’s accident were unexpected.

─It’s terrible that Miss Tanashia got hurt. But it’s a relief that it’s not Miss Noxia.

It felt like he’d been hit in the head with a blunt object.

Orlando couldn’t understand why the nobles thought so.

─What do you mean by that?

─Oh, I’m sorry. Perhaps I misspoke out of concern for the safety of Miss Noxia, who is likely to be the next head of the family.

Orlando had never mentioned Noxia as the successor.

But seeing the nobles around him take it for granted that Noxia was the next head of the family, he realized something was off.

‘Could it be because of me?’

He had always taken care of Noxia first, without intending to.

There was no special reason. It’s just that Noxia, the younger of the twins, felt younger than Tanashia, the older sister.

Tanashia had never shown any signs of resentment, so he naively believed that she would understand, given his busy work schedule.

It was natural. In the novel , Tanashia always smiled in front of Orlando, no matter what she thought inside. She was a daughter who never asked for anything from Orlando, as her desire to be loved more than her younger sister Noxia was strong.

‘I need to be careful from now on.’

In the novel, just like now, Orlando realized he hadn’t shown equal love to his two daughters after hearing the nobles’ words.

If it went according to the original, Orlando would rush to console Tanashia when she sent someone to push for a hospital visit, ending the episode.

But there was one more incident here.

That was when Matella, the tutor, came and revealed Tanashia’s hidden talent.

─Miss Tanashia is a genius, one in 300 years, in my opinion. It’s too precious to leave it as it is. For a proper education from now on…

─Why didn’t you reveal this fact until now? You couldn’t have noticed it just today.

At Orlando’s sharp question, Matella bowed her head as if feeling sorry.

“I’m sorry. I only had a vague suspicion, I failed to fully understand because Miss Tanashia was hiding her genius. I couldn’t report to you something I wasn’t sure of… and above all, Miss Tanashia didn’t want it.”

“Why would Tanashia?”

“It seems she wanted a naturefriendly ability like Miss Noxia. Towards magic or controlling spirits. But if it was revealed that she was extraordinarily smart, she couldn’t turn in that direction.”

Orland was at a loss for words.

If Matella’s words were true, it was a very foolish reason.

He couldn’t understand why she would try to follow Noxia when everyone is born with different talents.

At first, he was ready to erupt in anger.

He decided to scold Tanashia harshly so she would never think such foolish thoughts again.

But as time passed, the indifference of the nobles and the fact that Tanashia had lied weighed heavily on his heart.

‘Tanashia kept such a thing a secret… Am I feeling distant because I haven’t seen her face for so long?’

Orland’s realization was different from the original work where he simply neglected Tanashia.

The fact that Tanashia, who was always obedient, was in fact hiding her worries, came as quite a shock to him.

Above all…

A day, two days, three days.

Unlike in the original work, there was no urgent message from Tanashia even as time passed.

Tanashia, who usually relayed news without being asked, had abruptly stopped contacting him, which made him more worried.

It started with a minor incident, but those thoughts gathered and reminded Orland of the will left by Shal.

Orland found himself looking at the picture of Shal that was placed on his office desk without realizing it. Her smile in the middle of the forest warmed his heart just by looking at it.

‘I’m sorry, Shal. I promised to raise Tanashia and Noxia without envy, but it seems I was a lacking father.’

Orland’s weakness.

That was his deceased wife, Shal.

Orland fell into thought for a moment. Then he softly muttered to the empty space as if he had made a decision.

“Zen.”

As he said that, a man appeared in the empty space as if by magic.

If Matella, the home tutor, had seen a man appear without any sign, she might have been shocked.

“I guess I have to postpone the meeting tomorrow.”

“Yes.”

“We need to have a pleasant family dinner. Contact the mansion and let Tanashia and Noxia know as well.”

“As you command.”

The man called Zen disappeared as silently as he had appeared.

Orland didn’t seem to care about this familiar situation. He just looked at Shal’s picture with a more serious expression than ever.

Tanashia didn’t know, but like a tiny gear going off, the content of the original “Beloved Saint” was gradually changing.

Male lead reborn without memories — but he still falls for her.

The person he finds displeasing in this life turns out to be his cherished wife-master in previous life…

Xie Zhi and Fang Xianxing who had known each other for less than three days through a blind date sat in the same car in front of the civil affairs bureau. They had a disagreement and failed to get married.

Xie Zhi immediately took out his phone, slid through his contacts, and randomly selected the next marriage candidate.

The woman snatched his phone and hung up. Looking at his phone wallpaper, she awkwardly changed the subject: “An ancient painting, eh? It looks pretty good, it’s just that the person in the painting looks a bit like me.”

When he heard this, he sarcastically mocked her for being so delusional, completely unaware that, the person in front of him was the reincarnation of Wen Ru, the famous prime minister of Yuan Shun whom he most admired…

The female CEO who doesn’t want to get married with a divorce agreement in hand × The male archaeological researcher who will only get married if he’s sure he can get divorced
