Like spring, like a blazing red summer.
“Madam Turiel.”
The envoy of death that Lenisha sent visited Gail.
“Nice to meet you like this again, Gail Calliot.”
The emphasis in her pronunciation seemed to be intended to remind Gail of his situation.
A cold sneer played on her small face.
“…Why did you come?”
“What a dog needs is a leash, right? Lenisha-nim’s testimony.”
Madam Turiel spoke with a leisurely tone.
Her eyes seemed to pierce through Gail.
Gail shivered. It felt like the coldness thrown into a snowy field enveloped him.
“Now that the leash has come off, you have to make a choice.”
Madam Turiel laughed in red.
The neatly arranged white teeth between her flamboyant lips stood out conspicuously.
It looked like she would tear Gail apart with those teeth.
Gail’s lips trembled.
“…My family…”
“They are safe. Under Lenisha-nim’s protection in a very secure place. From now on, they will live in Hiloshine.”
Lenisha handed Casius over to Turiel. And Casius’s knights moved for Lenisha.
Trained knights on the battlefield didn’t take long to get Gail’s family in their hands without Lexus’s dark power.
Gail’s face grew even darker.
Gail’s hand on the desk trembled.
“In the end…”
“Yes. In the end, that’s how it happened. Did you forget the fact that everything comes back? This time, it’s your turn to pay the price.”
Gail’s head dropped.
The situation was in Turiel’s hands. She raised her scythe.
Even if he twisted his neck and tried to run away, the envoy of death wouldn’t let Gail go.
In front of Turiel’s sparkling eyes, Gail anticipated his future.
A dark and crimson future.
‘Nothing has changed.’
Lenisha looked around the palace where she had stayed in the past.
The space remained unchanged.
Canaria had just passed like the wind.
‘Is it pitiful?’
Lenisha came here alone.
Even Lindsai had left Casius behind.
Here, it was up to Haelin and Lenisha alone to resolve everything.
Lenisha’s funds controlled part of the palace, but she couldn’t completely trust them.
Turiel was loyal and sincere, so by now, she would have captured Gail.
Gael wondered what expression he would wear as he appeared at the palace and what he might shout. Also, there was curiosity about Kanaria, who had returned to the place she had originally been chased away from, and what expression she might be wearing. Lenisha stared into the gradually darkening sky. Finally, there was someone else she was curious about. ‘Casius…!’ What expression was he wearing as he thought about Lenisha now? Lenisha opened the balcony door. The warmth of the moon poured into the room through the window. Lenisha walked outside onto the balcony. Haelin, exhausted mentally, had fallen asleep, and the palace, still untouched by anyone, was empty. The palace, now asleep in silence, was a first. A massive castle where not even the slightest sign of movement could be felt. Although Lexus would fill this place with certain individuals, for now, it was Lenisha’s castle.
Lenisha was filling her lungs with the outside air.
Ssurr.
Lenisha opened her eyes narrowly.
It was a space where not a single sign should be felt.
There were rabbits in the garden.
Even these small animals had a wildness to them, so they might be creatures like rabbits or cats that were active at night.
But for some reason, she got an inexplicable chill.
To call them familiar animals, they were cold… and something smooth…
‘Snake!’
What crawled up Lenisha’s balcony was a red snake.
With a thickness only half of an arm, it had shimmering red scales.
It was a cute snake with small golden eyes and three golden spots on its head.
Lenisha reached out to the snake as if entranced.
The protagonist who broke Lenisha’s silence was smaller and cuter than expected.
“Where did you come from?”
The similar-looking snake knew.
Casius Rothera.
However, to call it Casius, the snake was too small.
If Casius put together a couple of his fingers, it might be as thick as this snake’s body.
Kyak.
The snake opened its mouth wide and shouted something.
Revealing a pink tongue, the snake leaned its head against Lenisha’s hand.
Lenisha gently stroked its round forehead.
At that moment, an unbelievable voice reached Lenisha’s ear.
[Lenisha.]It was a soft, soothing voice. Lenisha blinked her eyes.
[Lenisha.]Again, Lenisha swallowed her breath at the voice scattered into the air.
Could she forget this voice?
Lenisha looked at the snake with round eyes.
The snake wiggled its cute head.
Except for this snake, there was no way to explain the strange phenomenon she was experiencing.
Lenisha grabbed the snake as if catching a fish and walked into the room.
She securely locked the balcony door.
After confirming that there was no one, Lenisha put the snake she was holding on the table.
Sitting on the rug on the floor, Lenisha swallowed her saliva.
The snake, seemingly unhappy with how Lenisha had treated it, continuously made ‘Kyah! Kyah!’ sounds and raised its head.
Lenisha whispered in a small voice.
“…Casius?”
The snake stared at Lenisha with a sharp look.
“Is it Casius?”
With a face that she herself couldn’t believe, Lenisha asked again in a whisper.
[…Lenisha.]The snake’s thin tongue trembled.
“Ha.”
All the strength drained from Lenisha’s body.
Lenisha, who slumped to the floor, burst into laughter.
She thought she knew everything about Casius, but he was hiding another secret.
“Cutie.”
Lenisha uttered with a laughter-filled, young voice and reached out her finger.
Thinking she was left alone, Casius came back to Lenisha once again.
It had always been like that.
When the Rothera couple left, and now only Lenisha remained, Casius appeared like a comet.
At a time she never expected.
Casius doesn’t leave Lenisha alone.
For some reason, Lenisha’s eyes seemed to light up, so she deliberately smiled even brighter.
“How did such a thought come about?”
[…I didn’t like just waiting like everyone else.]If the snake could express emotions, it would probably be wearing an annoyed expression right now.
When Casius had complaints against Lenisha, it was the expression he made.
[I am the one who stands by your side, not behind you.]Lenisha kissed the snake’s head.
Really, isn’t it too lovely?
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…?
