“Hyperventilation symptoms due to psychological anxiety and mental stress….”
Lamein muttered, narrowing her eyes.
“If Lucia’s mother also passed away from the same condition, then it’s a hereditary disease.”
She slowly sighed, clicking her tongue.
“I can’t figure out Lucia’s condition.”
She gave up thinking and hugged the quilt even tighter.
As she lay absentminded, sleep began to creep in.
“By the way, I wonder if Kain received proper treatment? Yawn!”
She yawned, covering her wideopen mouth with her palm, then forcefully opened her drooping eyelids.
She slowly lifted her hand, which was brought close to her mouth.
“What was that?”
It felt like holding something hot, just about to explode.
She recalled the unfamiliar sensation, slowly opening and closing her hand in midair.
She felt nothing.
“Is something wrong with me?”
She looked down at her body while lying down.
She then lowered her hand, slowly rubbing her chest and stomach.
“Spilling coffee again a while ago, and today’s strange symptoms too. Something’s off?”
She rested her head on the pillow and pursed her lips.
Thinking about it, she had been overdoing it these past few days.
She had been making sun hats, barely sleeping for days, and drinking alcohol until she was drunk.
Today was beyond words.
“I’ll die before I get a divorce and collect alimony.”
That man will remarry.
Who cares?
Lamein, once again deep in thought, slowly closed her eyes.
(This is a time separator.)
The next morning.
“Lamein, a thankyou letter has arrived from Duke Haribo this morning.”
The Duchess of Roger spoke as soon as Lamein sat down at the dining table.
“……Yes?”
Lamein’s eyes widened in surprise.
“Thanks to Lamein yesterday, Lucia overcame a critical situation.”
This time, the Duke of Roger spoke.
Lamein looked alternately at the pleased Roger couple.
The reason she was surprised was not because of what they said.
‘Is it rocket delivery or what?’
It was because of the surprisingly fast communication network here.
When she thought about someone who must have run from dawn to deliver the letter,
‘I send applause of respect to all the workers in this world.’
She felt somber.
“It just happened that I helped. There’s no need to send a thankyou letter….”
Lamein said with an awkward smile.
“What are you talking about? Just stepping forward to help in such a situation is enough to be grateful for.”
Lamein glanced at her husband, who had told her never to step in next time.
“The Princess of Haribo wants to convey her thanks in person.”
“In person?”
“She wants to invite you to her house tomorrow. You’ll go, won’t you?”
Lamein slowly blinked as if considering.
The Duchess of Roger spoke first.
“Not accepting the invitation would be impolite, don’t you think?”
It was a straightforward way of saying to go.
“Yes, I’ll go.”
“Yes, I will do so.”
Suddenly hearing Cedric’s voice beside her, Lamein quickly turned her head.
‘What’s this. Are you going too?’
Though he clearly felt a gaze on him, her husband stubbornly looked straight ahead.
“Cedric. Didn’t you agree to go with me to Count Morris’s knight order inauguration ceremony tomorrow?”
At Duke Roger’s words, Cedric let out a small sound of realization.
“I apologize. I momentarily forgot.”
“Count Morris’s inauguration is really looking forward to your arrival.”
Lamein heavily nodded her head, watching Cedric discreetly.
There were many young ones here who wanted to become excellent knights like Cedric.
Count Morris’s inauguration likely wanted to learn the systematic training methods and tactics of Cedric’s knight order.
‘Yes. Going alone is more comfortable.’
There was no need to exhaustively take her husband, who would flash his eyes whenever he saw Duke Haribo.
“Then I will visit Duke Haribo’s residence tomorrow.”
With Lamein’s words, everything was neatly sorted out.
“Killian. But why isn’t Elina coming to eat?”
At Duchess Roger’s words, Lamein looked at Killian’s empty seat.
‘It’s strangely quiet.’
Frankly, she didn’t even know Elina was missing.
“She said she’s feeling a bit unwell, so I told her to rest in her room.”
“Oh dear. Is it something serious?”
“No, she said she’s just a bit tired.”
Duchess Roger’s face was filled with concern.
‘Surely it’s not because she was weeping all night last night?’
Suddenly, the thought that it might be because of her crossed her mind.
‘Did I go too far yesterday?’
Frankly, she never thought of Elina as a terribly bad child.
She had met several children like that in her life.
Children who strangle others with malicious words and actions.
‘Even so, it doesn’t matter. If I don’t put her in her place once, she’ll pester me again.’
So far, whether Elina’s actions were intentional or not, if left alone, she would repeat the same behavior.
“Killian. You’ll take good care of Elina, won’t you?”
At Duchess Roger’s affectionate voice, who dotes on Elina, Killian nodded his head.
.
.
.
After finishing the meal and returning to the room next to Cedric.
“Did Cain get treated well yesterday?”
Lamein asked.
But Cedric just stared and didn’t answer.
“Cedric. Didn’t you hear me?”
Eyes reaching as if they would pierce through.
Why is he looking at me like that? She thought at that moment.
“No, I heard you.”
Cedric slightly pushed up his lips and answered.
“He was treated well. Thanks to your timely hemostasis, if managed well, he said it would heal soon.”
Perhaps the treatment was just disinfection.
Although she was worried, there wasn’t really anything she could do.
“I’m relieved. I was worried.”
“We’ve arrived. Go in and rest now.”
Arriving in front of the room, Cedric formally pointed to Lamein’s door with his right hand.
“Yes. Cedric, you rest too.”
Lamein lightly answered and went into her room.
Left alone in the hallway, Cedric stared intently at her door.
‘But there were only traces, and I didn’t see a wound that would have caused so much blood.’
Cedric’s blue eyes, recalling Arend’s words, darkened like the night sea.
Male lead is a Destined Young Husband (Female-dominant)
One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
Short summary by Yuushi L: Initially, the male lead (ML) liked another girl, while the female lead (FL) liked the ML. Both fell off a cliff. The FL temporarily lost her memory, and the ML, fearing others might take advantage of him, claimed FL was his wife while they were staying in a village. Later, when they returned home, the FL regained her memories and remembered that the ML liked someone else, so she kept her distance from him. However, during their time living together in the countryside, the ML’s view of the FL had completely changed. From this point, his pursuit of the FL begins.
