‘In my past life, I didn’t own this al, and His Highness the Crown Prince didn’t go to see the Mitri tree either. The situation is completely different from before, so maybe these two things could influence each other.’
So, unknowingly, she might have wanted to call upon her future self to check together.
Once such a thought crossed her mind, her inclination shifted towards doing something about it, no matter what.
Etienne sent a look to Leharht, urging him to touch it.
“Shall we give it a try?”
Leharht, with a determined expression, grasped the lid of the box and slowly opened it.
A much brighter light than before emanated from it. Etienne frowned, closed her eyes, and then slightly opened one eye.
“Watch carefully.”
Confirming that Etienne had opened one eye, Leharht, in a low voice, said, bringing his hand to the al.
Since she had already accepted Leharht as the owner, the al might respond to his touch and crack open. Then, what kind of creature might appear from inside…
“…”
“…”
“It seems like nothing is going as we expected.”
“Indeed. I honestly had some expectations.”
Leharht rolled the al around, speaking. He hoped for some reaction, but nothing happened.
“It’s just not my lucky day today. Maybe I can wake up on my own.”
As Etienne tried to comfort herself with good words, Leharht stopped touching the al and looked at her hands.
“Then what on earth are these leaves?”
Leharht, peering around her hands, suddenly reached out towards Etienne.
“Why?”
“Just like the Emperor could awaken someone’s abilities.”
“So, are you trying to see what will happen to me?”
“Will you let me hold your hand just once?”
“…Are you really trying to confirm this?”
Seeing Leharht’s hand, Etienne raised an eyebrow suspiciously.
“Didn’t we hold hands when we came down from the mountain yesterday?”
“That was a different hand. How about this one?”
Leharht extended his other hand, but Etienne stepped back a bit.
“You might want to ask someone else. Well then, goodbye.”
Etienne gracefully lifted the hem of her dress in a polite gesture and turned away. As she left with an apparent lack of regrets, Leharht remained, raising both hands.
“Too bad.”
The small gathering at the Duke’s castle revolved around Leharht.
“Uncomfortable.”
Etienne sipped her juice, glancing at the opposite side. There, Fernand occupied a seat, with Hana sitting beside him, casting occasional glances at him.
“Hana seems to see me as a constant interference…”
Although she wanted to get along with Fernand, it seemed awkward the way Hana treated her.
“Why is that?”
Solar and Nick were there. The two, dressed most splendidly for the occasion, seemed to create an odd atmosphere.
“Oh, right.”
Etienne suddenly remembered something and looked back at Solar and Nick.
“The two who became lovers by falling into a hole.”
Now that she thought about it, that was Solar and Nick. During this trip, Etienne expected no romantic exchanges between Solar and her due to Solar’s constant complaints.
“Even if they didn’t fall into a hole, the two seem to be doing well.”
Finding it fascinating once again, I glanced at the couple and then turned my attention to those sitting next to me this time.
“This is interesting too.”
Next to me, Bazon was sitting next to Alex. They had become close, engaging in constant conversation, though I wasn’t sure when they had become friends.
As the conversation flowed and the atmosphere of the gathering seemed to relax, Leharht stood up from his seat.
“It’s a small gathering, but thank you for your efforts. Enjoy yourselves to the fullest. We have to leave early tomorrow morning.”
“Your Highness, should we all take the same carriage tomorrow?”
When Bazon raised his hand and asked, Leharht seemed to ponder for a moment before nodding.
“Now we go our separate ways. You’ve all worked hard until now.”
Everyone, including Bazon, had a bright expression.
“Really?”
“And didn’t the family send a carriage for you? If you want, you can travel elsewhere and come back.”
Assuring them the freedom to explore on the way back, Leharht expressed his gratitude, and Bazon thanked him before continuing the conversation with Alex.
“Well, then, I’ll go separately.”
As Nick raised his hand and spoke, Solar nodded. It seemed like they wanted to spend some more time together. Leharht gave his permission for them to do so.
“Alex, the assistant, will go separately too. That leaves Etienne and Fernand, Hana, and Heyshi, right?”
Leharht organized the remaining people.
“It seems like someone will come to meet us soon. I’m really looking forward to who among them I can use as an excuse.”
While Etienne didn’t understand his words, Leharht locked eyes with her.
“I think it’ll be the person I’m expecting.”
What on earth is he talking about? Etienne raised her eyebrows in curiosity.
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…?
