“I just received a report a little while ago. First of all, Jonathan Percy is indeed a knight of the royal family, as he was introduced to Bianca Bulter.”

“I see. So his identity has been confirmed.”

“However, it seems that he had a separate purpose for approaching Lady Bulter, so we are investigating that.”

“Thank you for looking into it. I will speak well to Bianca.”

“Understood.”

The conversation ended after that. Riena glanced at Cassel awkwardly. Then, seeing his lips trying to kiss her, she unknowingly turned her head and avoided it.

Cassel’s face was somewhat filled with shock. Riena belatedly realized her action and spoke as if making an excuse.

“I didn’t avoid it on purpose.”

However, she didn’t feel like spending their usual time alone together at night. Although Cassel explained the letter in his own way, there was still an unsatisfactory corner left.

Spending the night with Cassel in this mood would only be bad for both of them.

“I’m just a little tired. My head also hurts after dealing with Mother and Bianca.”

“Did you take medicine?”

“No, it’s not to that extent. I think I’ll be fine if I just get a good night’s sleep.”

“…I understand. I will tell Amy not to wake you up tomorrow morning.”

“Yes, thank you.”

Cassel kissed Riena’s forehead and left the room only after making sure she lay down on the bed.

Riena couldn’t fall asleep easily this time either.

[This is the timeline separator]

Cassel, who had left Riena’s room, immediately went to find Amy. As if she had just woken up, she opened the door with half-closed eyes.

“Your Grace? What brings you here at this hour?”

Amy, who was barely holding back a yawn, suddenly opened her eyes wide.

“Did something happen to the Young Lady?”

“Shh. It’s nothing like that, so don’t worry.”

“Then that’s a relief.”

She let out a sigh of relief.

“Then what is the matter…?”

“Ria seemed very tired. Let her sleep in and don’t wake her up tomorrow morning.”

“Yes, I understand.”

“And…”

Amy slowly blinked her half-closed eyes and waited for Cassel’s words.

“How was Ria while I was away today?”

“She didn’t seem to be in a very good mood. It’s understandable. After what the Countess did to the Young Lady. It’s only because the Young Lady has a kind heart that she accepted her, but if it were me, I would never have let her into the mansion.”

“Anything else?”

Amy shook her head.

“Nothing in particular. She said she wanted to be alone, so she spent some time by herself, but other than that, she was fine. She had a good meal with Count Dyke and the Countess.”

“I see. Let me know right away if anything happens.”

“Yes. I understand, Your Grace.”

After parting with Amy, Cassel headed straight to his room. As soon as he entered the room, he first checked the book Riena had read.

Even if she hadn’t told him first, he could immediately tell that someone had touched the book. The books were neatly placed, but the appearance was subtly different from the last time he had put them away.

He could tell because he was always on edge about that book.

Cassel took out the book and clenched his teeth.

He should have hidden it in a space where no one could see it. The book looked insignificant on the outside, and there was no one in the mansion who would touch his belongings, so he didn’t think anyone else would see it. It was all his negligence.

After returning to the past with this book, he was so preoccupied with Riena that he failed to think about organizing it.

Perhaps he had forgotten about the remnants of the past, drunk on happiness.

Cassel slowly opened the book. He was already familiar with the thickness of the book, so he could open the desired page at once without looking.

The page that contained the legend of the Goddess’s Dagger. The unique scent of the cosmetics Riena used was permeated there. It was a light scent, but Cassel, with his sensitive senses, could clearly perceive it.

If so, Riena must have read this story. Yet she didn’t ask him a single question about it.

Was it because she couldn’t bring herself to ask, or did she just think of it as an absurd story and only considered it as an entertainment?

Either way, it didn’t matter. What really mattered was something else.

Cassel moved his hand to the back cover of the book. As Riena had explained, the well-sealed leather cover was torn off.

He took out the letter he had received a long time ago from inside.

To Duke Winkler.

The memory of the day he first received this letter was still vivid.

It was the day he decided to turn back time.

In the past, Cassel couldn’t reply immediately after receiving Count Dyke’s letter asking if he would marry Riena.

At that time, he had just inherited the duchy unexpectedly not long ago and was preoccupied with organizing the chaotic family.

Of course, he had the intention to eventually visit Riena and formally propose to her, but he didn’t want to face her in a situation where nothing was sorted out for him.

He wanted to become the perfect Duke Winkler and confidently go to meet her.

But was that the problem? If he had rushed to the Dyke territory as soon as he received the letter, even if it was an immature appearance, would everything have been different?

No matter how many times he regretted, nothing changed.

The Winkler territory where Cassel resided was located in the northernmost part of the empire, and news arrived later compared to other places.

If he didn’t pay close attention to external news, it was difficult to obtain the desired information in a timely manner.

For that reason, Cassel learned of Count Dyke’s death quite late. The Dyke family did not widely announce the obituary.

He belatedly searched for Riena out of concern, but she had already gone to the capital with Johannes Belliard and even got engaged.

Riena, standing by Johannes’s side, looked happy. Although she hadn’t completely escaped the sadness of losing her father and had a bit of melancholy on her face, she seemed to be trying to overcome it.

Johannes Belliard also cherished her dearly. As he was known for his good character, there seemed to be no need to worry about Riena’s well-being.

Cassel watched from afar and wished for her happiness. He didn’t even mention the request Count Dyke had made to him when he was alive.

There seemed to be no need to reveal the fact that he was the cowardly Cas who had promised to marry her when they were young.

The situation changed after Riena formally married Johannes.

The adult Riena was somewhat different from her tomboyish younger self. Rather than freely mingling with people, she enjoyed her own time alone, and her personality became a bit calmer.

So people didn’t properly notice the changes that occurred to her after marriage, but Cassel, who had been observing her closely, knew.

Riena was slowly withering away by Johannes’s side. That wasn’t the sight Cassel had wanted.

Riena, his first love, should have shone brighter than anyone else.

So he relentlessly investigated Johannes. Then he could uncover unexpected facts.

The fact that Johannes Belliard was actually a completely different person from the rumors, and that there was something fishy about the death of his father, the previous Marquis Belliard.

It was said that the previous Marquis Belliard strongly opposed his only son marrying the daughter of a collapsing family.

Whether it was luck or coincidence for Johannes, the previous Marquis Belliard died in a sudden accident two weeks later. Johannes, who became the marquis succeeding him, was able to marry Riena without anyone’s opposition.

That wasn’t the end of it.

Johannes, who had acted as if he would do anything for her before marriage, changed his attitude and started abusing Riena as soon as they got married.

If things went wrong, he would lock her in a room, confuse her mind with cunning and deceitful words, and even resort to violence, it was said.

The words came from a few maids working in the marquisate, so they were credible.

Riena was left alone without anyone’s help and began to let herself go as she withered away.

As soon as he learned of that fact, Cassel became greatly enraged and decided to take Riena out of that hell.

〈Do you remember? You stayed at the Dyke mansion with your wife when you were young.〉

It wasn’t that he wanted Riena’s love. What Cassel wanted was only one thing.

For Riena to live a life where she could freely laugh again.

〈If it was when we were young, could it be…the cowardly Cas?〉

〈I don’t think he was a coward.〉

〈He was a coward.〉

When Riena, who had a look on her face as if she had given up on everything in life, smiled as she recalled memories.

Cassel decided to devote his everything to her.

However, not everything went as he wished.

Cassel bit his lips tightly and re-read the letter, which he now remembered down to the last letter.

I don’t love you, Your Grace.

He knew that was a lie.

But it didn’t matter whether it was true or false.

From the beginning, it wasn’t an act to be loved, so he wasn’t hurt at all by her words that she didn’t love him.

However, she tore his heart to shreds in a different way.

The fact that she had chosen her actions because she loved him, contrary to the harsh words she had spoken, made him even more distressed.

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.
