Everything seemed like it would go as Lenisha said.
“……I’ll do as Lenisha commands.”
“You’re good.”
Lenisha tapped Casius’s hand.
Casius lowered his hand, and covered it with the other hand.
He felt a burning sensation. Lenisha had set Casius on fire without any fuss.
Lenisha held out a small piece of paper she had prepared.
Three names were written on it.
Among them, one name caught Casius’s eye.
“The Prince of Shamdir……?”
Why this man?
(This is the time separator.)
He was the most kinglike man even in Shamdir.
But he was not particularly interested in the throne.
He was concentrating all his efforts on making his elder brother king.
Being king meant having too many responsibilities and enduring many things.
He didn’t like those constraints.
Meteo liked living behind the shield of the king, taking on a reasonable amount of responsibility and doing his job.
Even Meteo had a line that he protected.
It was family.
Meteo loved his royal family and loved his family.
The king and queen were harmonious, and they cared for each other.
The children born under them also cared for and loved each other.
Meteo liked such a Shamdir.
The incident where the youngest princess almost met with disaster was a great wakeup call.
If he hadn’t had it from the beginning, he wouldn’t have coveted it.
He had no reason to be sad because he had lost it.
But Meteo and his siblings were born wealthy and harmonious from the beginning.
That was what had etched the fear of almost losing it deep in their bones.
The royal family of Shamdir, learning of the incident involving the youngest princess, fell silent.
The king and queen couldn’t hide their anxiety and raised their voices for the first time.
Disharmony arose within the family, and walls were built.
Meteo didn’t forget his debt of gratitude to Lenisha, who prevented the discord from reaching its conclusion.
Lenisha had not only protected the youngest princess but also Shamdir.
And she had protected Meteo’s peace and stability.
“Have you found a way to approach Empress Lenisha?”
Meteo, looking down at the glamorous cityscape of Hientri, asked his aide in a cold voice.
The man bowed his head and said,
“Today, Duke Casius was seen outside his mansion.”
In fact, most of the people who were dwelling in Casius’s mansion, even though it looked flimsy, were knights who had fought on the battlefield for a long time.
No one could spy on Casius’s mansion by getting through them.
In fact, there were a few people who had snooped around Casius’s mansion.
However, they were soon chased away like bugs.
‘No. What’s this snooping around the mansion for? Huh? You! Want to be turned into a firewood and burned in the fireplace?’
‘Why is the world so harsh these days? What to steal again from this poor mansion! Come here, I will strip you bare and chase you out!’
How happy they were with that.
There was not a shred of mercy in their hands, like ruffians.
The spies were all treated like robbers and were driven away.
As a result, no one dared to snoop around the mansion anymore.
“Hu.”
It made things difficult for Meteo.
Still, it seemed better to make contact through Casius since he came out and opened the door.
He didn’t know about the relationship between Casius and Lenisha.
However, he knew that Casius was the hero of Hientri and Lenisha was pushed into the forced marriage that Lexus had arranged.
The fact that Lexus had done something brazen to his own empress was a wellknown story in the streets.
Even the people of the empire did not try to protect their emperor.
“That’s a relief, at least. Find a way to approach the duke. Tell him I want to meet him.”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
The subordinate bowed his head.
“How did Duke Casius appear? How did the investigation into that man go?”
“It seems that he has a good reputation among the knights. More than a hundred knights are following him.”
Thanks to that, Casius’s mansion was now a knight’s den.
“And the woman issue?”
“It wasn’t there.”
The man shook his head. Meteo paced around the room.
“If the Duke is a good man, then it’s fortunate but….”
If not.
If Lenisha was just hoping to leave the mansion.
Meteo would have no choice but to grant Lenisha’s wish.
Meteo had come all this way to repay his favor.
Meteo could not forget the moment he locked eyes with Lenisha.
Even in that situation, Lenisha did not lose her nobility.
She was strong and beautiful.
Meteo was someone who believed that inner strength was true strength.
Never breaking even in the midst of all kinds of humiliation was also an important virtue.
Lenisha had all of that.
Lenisha was not a puppet doll used by Lexus, standing by his side.
Lenisha was….
“If she wishes, I must help the Empress to live the life she desires.”
That was the way Meteo repaid his favor.
Helping Lenisha enjoy the noble life that suited her.
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…?
