Isaac, observing Cyrus’s bewildered expression, asked strangely.
“Cyrus, what’s wrong with your expression? Are you in pain? Should I take a look?”
“What is the princess doing?”
“Why are you asking me what the successor is doing? I came here thinking we could have a chat. I had no idea I would find you here.”
Isaac narrowed his eyes.
“You didn’t… chase the princess away with harsh words, did you? I brought her here with the determination not to send her back to the Eastern Crown!”
Not sending the Eastern Crown’s princess back to the Eastern Crown was an absurd statement. However, Cyrus felt like it was an excellent idea.
He wanted to keep her visible.
Having her within sight meant he could watch over her so that nothing would happen. He could make her smile that beautiful smile, disappearing like a daydream, all the time.
Then he suddenly came to his senses.
What am I thinking? Whether Ariana laughs or not has nothing to do with me.
Cyrus composed his expression and told Andrei.
“Investigate Duke Ovelier. Even the number of mice running around the warehouse.”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
Andrei responded with a single smile. Cyrus looked back at Isaac.
“You must have brought many good herbs. Prepare all kinds of antidotes you know.”
“Alright, Your Highness. Anything else? Should I make medicine with golden thistles, too, since she likes them?”
When Cyrus stared at him sharply, Isaac raised both hands slightly in surrender.
“Yes, Your Highness. I’ll do as you command.”
After the two left, Cyrus walked slowly through the spacious reception room. He felt like he wanted to go find Ariana right away, but he couldn’t understand why he felt this way.
There was some danger, but Ariana had arrived safely in the Northern Crown, and as long as she was within Cyrus’s sight, there shouldn’t be any major risks.
Nevertheless, recalling what she had been through, his heart pounded more than when he was ambushed by assailants.
Before leaving the reception room, Ariana’s expression kept haunting his mind. Cyrus clenched and unclenched his fist several times before turning around and leaving the reception room.

Lanster was one of the few who knew that Sini was from Paganus. He felt sorry for her given her past circumstances before Ariana rescued her, but he couldn’t shake off the thought that she was born of Paganus’s blood.
Moreover, golden eyes.
For a long time, golden eyes symbolized ominousness. Unhappiness, suffering, death, and such things.
Considering Ariana had gone through a lot, Lanster worried that Sini might bring more hardships.
However,
“Why are you staring at me like that?”
Since a while ago, Sini had been standing in front of Lanster, blocking Ariana’s door, and looking at him with a raised eyebrow.
Until now, Lanster had never exchanged a single word with Sini, so her sparkling golden eyes were quite uncomfortable.
“I want to be friends with the knight.”
At Sini’s childish words, Lanster frowned.
Sini had been consistently eating nutritious food and the medicine Isaac personally made. When Lanster first saw her, she was thin and small, but in a few months, she had grown rapidly and now exuded a mature charm befitting her 17 years.
However, since she hadn’t learned much, she still seemed childish, and the discrepancy between her appearance and behavior made Lanster uncomfortable.
“Your duty is to assist the princess.”
“Yes. But I still want to be friends with the knight.”
Why is she like this?
Lanster took a step back as Sini approached abruptly.
“What should I do to be friends with the knight?”
“We don’t need to be friends.”
“But I want to be friends.”
Sighing, Lanster sensed a presence from the side and turned his gaze, hand moving to his sword. Cyrus was walking confidently towards them from the end of the corridor.
Sirus, with a black aura, walking through the corridor covered with white woolen fabric, looked like a black demon. A black demon trying to capture the princess.
There was no generous evaluation regarding the dazzling silver hair or the perfectly sculpted facial features filling the white face. If that man was called the god of the moon, our princess is as beautiful as the god of the sun.
When Lanster instinctively blocked Ariana’s door, Cyrus smiled slyly.
“The vice commander of the White Knights has no prejudices. You seem to get along well with Paganus.”
“I knew it was difficult to deceive the eyes of the Northern Crown’s lord, but I didn’t expect you to bring it up so easily. If you’re as wise as they say, you already know this child’s background.”
“Well, what does it matter? This is my castle, and there’s no one to eavesdrop.”
Cyrus quietly stood next to Lanster, glancing up and down at Sini, who was standing silently. Sini, who used to sparkle when only Lanster was present, shrunk her shoulders as if collapsing when Cyrus came forward.
Sini felt extremely uncomfortable and frightened in front of the Northern Crown.
“Your name is Sini, right?”
“…….”
Unable to answer due to Cyrus’s gaze, Sini, Lanster spoke in her place.
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…?
