Despite what she said, Leyana’s expression did not seem to soften, and she just stared at her without saying anything further.
In an attempt to break the tense atmosphere, she spoke to Leyana again.
“But who set off the fireworks?”
“When I give the signal, the ones below were supposed to set it off. There was no signal, but they had some prior instructions, so the fireworks seemed to have gone off properly.”
“Ah, I see.”
After hearing Leyana’s explanation, she finally fully understood the situation.
“You must have felt suffocated being here. Shall we go down to the ballroom together?”
“No, go ahead. I’m going to adjust my dress.”
Come to think of it, Leyana’s dress was a little disheveled. It was probably because she caused a commotion while trapped in the room.
Leyana’s attitude was cold, and it was uncomfortable, but there was nothing more she could do.
Her head was about to explode from the twisted relationship between Rohel and Noksia, and she had confirmed that Askan was safe, so she wanted to return to the Brelof mansion as soon as possible.
“Alright, see you later.”
When she said goodbye, Leyana nodded as if to agree.
So she left the room with Askan. She didn’t get a good look at Leyana’s expression left alone, but the last look she saw stayed in her mind strangely.
‘Did I see it wrong?’
It seemed like she was glaring at her too fiercely to be just friends.
[This is the time separator]When Tanashia completely disappeared from her sight, Leyana couldn’t hold back her anger and knocked over all the objects on the table.
Bang!
With a loud noise, pieces of glass flew all over the place.
Even after that, Leyana could not control her anger and breathed heavily.
“…So in the end, you’re from the Brelof family too?”
She had trusted Tanashia, but just in case, she had told the ones below to set off the fireworks. And she had given the order to set them off even without a signal.
If things had gone according to the original, her suspicion of Tanashia would have been resolved, and their relationship would have become stronger, but the situation had changed now.
Tanashia’s behavior seemed to have shielded Noksia to avoid disgrace, just as Leyana had suspected.
“Ha, you said you hated Noksia more than me. Is it because of the bloodline after all?”
It was disgusting.
Approaching like a kindred spirit only to hit her from behind…
Remembering Tanashia, Leyana clenched her fists, and slowly the power of the wind began to gather inside.
Whooooosh─
The power that hadn’t budged even when she tried to use it while trapped in the room was now starting to respond.
Like Noksia who controlled water, Leyana was also a person who inherited the special ability of the Creesha family.
Although her ability was laughably weak compared to Noksia’s and she couldn’t even control it properly, Leyana’s ability was to control the wind.
There were many illegitimate children in the Creesha family due to the pleasureloving head of the family. Leyana was one of those many children.
Even when her mother, a hostess at a tavern, went to the Creesha family and insisted on Leyana’s birth, no one listened.
She would have never been recognized as a member of the Creesha family in her lifetime.
But then one day.
The special ability to control wind manifested in Leyana.
She only found out later, but the power to control wind was a special power only passed down in the Krisha family.
From that day, Leiana’s life took a 180degree turn. She was recognized as a person of the Krisha family overnight, and she was able to enjoy the life of nobility she had always dreamed of.
At first, it all felt like a dream.
The reality that awakened Leiana, who was immersed in such a happy dream, was the existence of Noxia.
—”The young Lady Krisha can use the power? Hmph, she’s far from young Lady Brellof anyway.”
—”Exactly. Just because she can use some powers, she thinks she can be like young Lady Brellof.”
—”She’s too poor to fit in with us anyway. Her mother was a hostess, wasn’t she?”
Because the power skipped several generations and manifested, there weren’t many in the Arwen Empire with special abilities.
Unfortunately, Noxia and Leiana were of similar age, so they were always compared.
Noxia, who was like a flower of the social world, was always loved by everyone, and Leiana, as a second child, had to give up all the glory.
—”Gah! We brought her in because she inherited the power of our family, but she’s useless.”
—”What did you expect from the start, she’s from a low birth. Did you think Leiana would be like young Lady Brellof? If so, wake up from your dream. Send her to a wealthy man to get rid of her now.”
Whenever the father saw Leiana, he clicked his tongue, and the stepmother was keen on sending Leiana to marry anyone.
—”You’re my sibling? Don’t make me laugh. You filthy thing!”
The man who should be called the brother as he was the successor to inherit the Krisha family in the future denied Leiana’s existence itself.
Even when her power had manifested, she felt like she had everything in the world, but the reality she faced was completely different from what she had dreamed.
The attention of the social world, the love of men, wealth and power.
Everything Leiana wanted was all taken by Noxia.
She couldn’t help but be angry. The existence of Noxia felt cursed.
‘If only Noxia wasn’t there……!’
At that moment, when she always had such thoughts, she met Tanashia, who was looking at Noxia with the same eyes as hers.
Leiana and Tanashia had been getting along well from the beginning. Their shared anger towards Noxia bound them tightly.
But Tanashia changed. She saved Noxia, who was about to be in trouble.
‘If it went according to my plan, Noxia would have been embarrassed enough to not show her face in the social world…….’
Many people who had been praising Noxia would have shut their mouths. Maybe the attention of people might have turned slightly towards Leiana instead of Noxia.
She regretted missing such an opportunity, again and again.
‘I thought she was a comrade…….’
She briefly forgot. That Tanashia was also a member of the Brellof family, a power holder.
Tanashia did not have to endure the disregard due to her low status like Leiana.
‘I realized she deceived me.’
The sense of betrayal was greater than expected.
Noxia, who pretends to be kind, was also abhorrent, but Tanashia, who approached her while hiding her intentions, felt even more hateful.
‘Tanashia…….’
Leiana opened her clenched fist. Then the power of the wind gathered in her hand flew in all directions.
Whoosh, whoosh!
The wind, like a blade, scraped and passed all over the room.
Staring at the terrible sight of the room that had changed into a mess in an instant, Leiana gave a chilly smile.
‘You have to pay for deceiving me.’
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…?
