It was a picture of a little girl with beautiful red hair.
Her eyes, softly gazing at the brightly smiling girl in the picture, landed on the writing on the picture.
To my beloved Lily.
Lily. It seemed to be the girl’s name.
“Who is this?”
Softly mumbling, she was intently looking at the girl in the picture when…
Knock knock.
The sound of a knock was heard.
She swiftly put down the book and picture she had been holding on the desk and moved.
“My lady.”

Jane, who had been wandering around the room, bowed respectfully and looked up with wide eyes.
“What is it, something happened?”
She met Jane’s eyes, who seemed to have something to say.
“……Duke Heter Calipse has arrived.”
From the hesitation in Jane’s voice, she could tell this was an unexpected visit.
Heter Calipse.
The man most recognized by the king among the nobles currently existing in this world.
And Lamein’s father. That is, her own father.
“Did my father come?”
“Yes. He is waiting in the reception room.”

“I see. Understood.”
Lamein, who casually replied, sat in front of the vanity.
As Jane approached and began to arrange her hair, she stared deeply at her reflection in the mirror.
Lamein, that is, herself, was currently Cedric’s wife and the lady of a recognized noble family.
She had declared a divorce from Cedric, but she knew that it was difficult to divorce immediately.
Because she wore the heavy shackles called the royal decree.
In the original work, Cedric decided to divorce Lamein as soon as the attention of the nobles shifted away after being commanded to marry her.
However, Cedric, who had been watching Lamein, changed his course and exposed her evil deeds, driving Lamein out of this mansion.
All the mistakes were Lamein’s, so Cedric had nothing to lose.
Not a divorce, but a banishment.

She didn’t want to bear such disgrace on top of enduring such harsh sadness, even if she died and came back to life.
And she declared divorce first on the judgment that it was better for her future to make a move before being banished.
And honestly.
‘Just because she’s divorced doesn’t change the fact that Lamein is the daughter of Duke Calipse.’
Because she knew that the background she had was quite solid, she did not hesitate.
‘He wouldn’t disown his daughter just because she’s divorced, would he?’
Lamein, who blinked slowly and tightly closed her eyelids, stood up from her seat.

The long corridor leading to the reception room.
Lamein walked slowly, holding her waist upright.
‘Duke Calipse was quite fond of his daughter.’
She began to rummage through the contents of the original work.
In the original work, after the king commanded the marriage of Cedric and Lamein, Heter was said to have fallen into great distress.
Because he was sad that he had to send his daughter away for his own sake.
‘Like in the original work, he’s a dad who loves his daughter, right?’
Please, be a dad who calls our puppy. A dad who calls our puppy would be nice.
While harboring hopes for her easy life after divorce, she arrived in front of the reception room.
Lamein, who stopped, swallowed hard.

And she was full of bright smiles to please the dad who loves his daughter.
The thick door of the reception room, densely engraved with gorgeous patterns, swung open.
“My Lamein. Come here. I’ve been waiting.”
Heter, who had been sitting in front of the table in the middle of the reception room, stood up with a bright smile.
Lamein narrowed her eyes until her pupils were not visible and began to scrutinize the man in front of her.
He was a man of not so great height and a small stature.
‘A war hero, this guy?’
Heter, whose lean body reminded her of a toothpick at first glance, was subtly scanned by her as she deepened the smile on her lips.
“I was surprised that you came without any notice.”
As she spoke in the softest voice possible.

“Do I have to notify you every time I come to see my beloved daughter?”
He responded in a softer voice.
At that moment, Lamein’s pupils sparkled.
She concluded that he is indeed a father who loves his daughter very much, just as in the original work.
Meanwhile, a servant who had entered the reception room placed tea and pie on the table.
“Peach tea and walnut pie are prepared.”
“Thank you.”
After Heter finished his words, he looked at the servant who bowed respectfully and smiled gently.
Jane, who was standing at the door, left and the thick door of the reception room closed completely.
“Sit down.”

The corners of Lamein’s lips, who offered a gentle voice once again, tightened slightly.
‘What’s going on…?’
Somehow it felt like a chill was circling over the face of Heter, who seemed to be endlessly kind and smiling.
…Is it just my feeling?
She drew out her lips long, hiding the puzzled expression that she had for a moment.
Then, the man’s expression, which had been cold, softened again.
At that moment when I thought my feeling was a misunderstanding.
“Lamein. I came to tell you something.”
The man who uttered a gentle voice slowly scanned the reception room with a careful gaze.
It seemed like he was checking if there were any other people in this space besides the two of them.

‘Is he trying to say something important?’
Is there anyone bothering you?
Just trust your father and live without any worries.
While thinking that it would be nice if he said such words,
“Father, please sit down….”
It was then that she slowly opened her slightly closed lips.
Heter came a step forward.
Although she flinched at the suddenly shortened distance, she met the eyes of the man who was still smiling gently.
‘What are you going to say?’
At that time, when she was softly closing her eyes as if to ask, Heter slowly tilted his face.

As the shadow of the man standing with his back against the window halfcovered her face, a faint voice came.
“Lamein. If you don’t want to die, I told you to behave yourself.”
…Huh? This is not it?
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
