When The Silver Bell Of Charlotte's Pharmacy Rings (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 160
We decided to travel by automobile as far as Todel. Although there was a train, it departed only twice a day and was thus ruled out; according to Matiel, trams ran frequently in the area, making carriages comparatively inconvenient.
“Are you really sure you know how to drive?”
Charlotte looked skeptically back and forth between the automobile and Matiel. She had heard he almost never drove because he disliked the noise and didn’t enjoy operating it, so his sudden insistence on taking the car made her uneasy.
“I won’t cause an accident with you sitting beside me, so stop worrying and get in.”
“Does whether an accident happens depend on who’s sitting in the passenger seat?”
“It might. For instance, if I had to chauffeur the Crown Prince or the Second Prince instead of you, I’d be so irritated I might deliberately cause a crash. Or maybe I’d end up carrying a donkey that ate the wrong mushrooms. Then an accident could happen regardless of my will.”
“You’ve been spouting increasingly strange sophistry lately—do you even realize that?”
“Must be catching it from you. Get in.”
She almost argued back, asking when she’d ever uttered such nonsense, but Charlotte obediently slipped through the door Matiel held open for her.
It was just like him to rarely use automobiles yet own the latest model. Though the wheels were somewhat high, the absence of a coachman-like driver’s seat—unlike older models—made it look far less ridiculous.
“What’s this?”
Charlotte pressed a small, rubber-ball-like object mounted beside the steering wheel. Immediately, an astonishingly loud, irritable sound blasted from the front of the car.
Matiel explained,
“It’s the automobile horn. With carriages, coachmen shout; here, we solve it with a horn.”
“That sound is incredibly loud! Someone with a weak heart might drop dead hearing it.”
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…?

Matiel is behaving childishly regarding Willa & her ‘using tricks’ to survive. Staring away from his host and refusing to engage in conversation? That’s ridiculous behavior.
Could someone be trying to frame the crown prince?
Yes, kill the vampire before it reveals it’s secrets. This guy is still suspicious. The easiest way to avoid being seen as a suspect is to become a victim.
