Terion greeted her more than anyone else.
Turiel spoke to Terion with a smile.
“You seem to be waiting for me.”
“It really seems like I was waiting. Perhaps, perhaps, it’s shameless, but really perhaps…!”
“Yes. It’s true that your client sent me for War hero Casius, who is not familiar with etiquette. They said he might struggle to match the dress code this time.”
Terion buried his face in his hands.
Blessed be Empress Lenisha by Hientri!
A tea with another poisonlike color was placed in front of Turiel.
Today, Turiel drank it calmly.
“Is it drinkable?”
“Um. It’s enough to wet the throat. It’s better than nothing.”
Turiel smiled at that.
Better than nothing was indeed fortunate.
Turiel put what she had brought on the table.
It was a box wrapped in velvet.
A box that seemed to flow with luxury just by looking at it.
Terion carefully opened the box.
“This is…!”
“These are the things that Casius needs to do this time. This is a tie, this is a handkerchief for the pocket, and these are gloves.”
Terion looked at the items inside the box with a blank stare.
“Something seems wrong, Madam Turiel.”
“Nothing is wrong at all. It is as your client requested.”
“…Is that so?”
Terion nodded his head and took in the box.
Well, that’s the way it is. It was sent by none other than Lenisha.
“Also, please make sure to deliver the letter inside to Casius.”
Terion saw the small envelope and nodded.
The items went through Terion’s hands and were delivered to Casius.
Casius unfolded the letter first.
Boldly, without fear, it was Lenisha who had stamped her palm on Casius’s chest.
Thanks to her, Casius had to lose sleep.
Lenisha was a married woman. Moreover, Lenisha held the title of Empress.
Of course, he knew that Lexus did not treat Lenisha properly and constantly insulted her.
‘Bastard.’
Even if he were thrown into a dragon’s mouth, that guy wouldn’t come to his senses.
However, apart from that…
What on earth did Lenisha intend to do with Casius, such a thing, and such a thing?
Gifts for a lover outside of marriage.
The first time could be considered a courtesy as an Empress.
Duke Lotera may have taken interest in her.
For Casius, this was a matter worth shrugging his shoulders at.
Anyway. But a second gift?
Casius quickly skimmed the contents of the letter.
“Looking forward to your beautiful appearance again, Sir Casius.”
Beautiful appearance. Casius dropped the letter he was holding with a thud.
He swallowed his dry saliva.
The atmosphere of that day seemed to come alive again.
Even the fingertips that were gently moving and fiddling with Casius’s tie.
Tightening the loose one with a sound…
Slender fingers, up close, wandered on Casius’s skin.
Empress Lenisha’s scent penetrated into Casius’s lungs.
Casius’s eyes trembled.
“Damn it. What’s with looking beautiful!”
Casius spat out his words roughly.
His hand, rubbing his reddened face, was rough too.
Casius loitered around the spot and looked at the things in the box.
Casius let out a long sigh.
Even from afar, Lenisha was shaking Casius.
Casius hadn’t even found an answer to give to Lenisha yet.
Casius brushed back his hair.
He’s worried about not finding the small duke and his wife.
But he felt that the child could be found if he traced his whereabouts.
There were signs of movement left, after all.
However, there were no signs of the small duke and his wife leaving the mansion.
‘Could they have been killed in the mansion…?’
He had a bad feeling that they might be dead, just undiscovered by the emperor’s knights because they were in disguise.
Casius clicked his tongue briefly.
“There’s no way. Neither the emperor nor Empress Lenisha would be careless.”
Casius was now focusing on pursuing Isabella.
It would be nice to find the child first.
Casius sighed again with regret.
[Star Icon][Star Icon][Star Icon]Casius appeared right on time.
“Why are you just coming now, Sir Casius?”
Canaria snapped in a sharp voice and held out her hand.
Casius stared blankly at her hand.
“You have to escort me!”
“Oh.”
Casius frowned.
Why on earth did it have to be this noisy and uncouth woman?
Not content with coveting a married man, he didn’t mix well with someone who didn’t even know history.
…No.
Actually, he was dissatisfied that this woman was one of those who tormented Lenisha.
Casius clicked his tongue briefly and placed Canaria’s hand on his arm.
They finally entered the greenhouse.
It was the place where today’s tea party was being held.
The last time Lenisha was here with the ladies, it was to prepare for the tea party.
People’s eyes were drawn to those who arrived last.
They looked carefully at Canaria and Casius and burst into laughter.
“Ha.”
Especially those who had seen Canaria in the greenhouse that day.
“Do you really think that Sir Casius has fallen for Canaria?”
A lady sneered.
Canaria turned her head and looked at Casius.
‘Oh, crazy!’
Casius was wearing a red tie, a red handkerchief, and red gloves with red ornaments.
Canaria’s face turned pale.
Anyone would see him as being completely infatuated with the empress!
He specifically found the same color as the empress and wore it.
Lenisha pretended to sip tea and smiled.
‘That’s right. You should have messed around moderately.’
Lenisha was a person who could be petty if necessary.
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
[Note: This story will not specifically point out the male lead’s reincarnation time point; it’s all in the details. Whenever you feel that the male lead is acting strangely, he has most likely been reincarnated.]
