“Then the marriage will be canceled.”
“…….”
“Marriage is not the union of individuals, but families. Even the Lianster family can’t proceed unilaterally without the consent of both sides, as you well know.”
“If you reject the marriage proposal, how will you handle the disadvantage?”
“I will still oppose it. Even if it leads to ruin, it’s better than handing you the hilt of a sword.”
It was a ridiculous situation. The one who always dominated like a wild beast now showed this ridiculous side.
“Understand that this is the only way we can act, given our circumstances.”
Riley looked at the vow in silence.
Seeing them act like this, they must have truly been afraid of this situation.
In truth, she hadn’t thought of revenge. She accepted Gibnen Lianster’s proposal not out of revenge against them, but because she wanted to be free.
If they continued to torment her, she might consider revenge, but now she wanted more to shake off her old feelings toward them and live ‘her life’ properly.
“It really makes me miserable to the end.”
“…….”
“I didn’t wish for much. If only I could reject the marriage with Duke Ermaints, anything would have been fine. Personal feelings of revenge? I didn’t even think of that in the first place. But… your attitude, uncle, makes me think about something I hadn’t even considered.”
Riley picked up the quill pen and signed in the designated space.
“I don’t wish for us to get along like a real family. As I’ve done so far, I will play the family game as you wish. After all, the fact that you took me in when I had nowhere to go remains unchanged.”
“……Thank you.”
“It’s not for you. It’s for my life. Don’t try to control me any longer, nor interfere. As long as you don’t touch me, I won’t think of doing anything as petty as revenge.”
“Of course.”
“If there’s nothing more to say, I’ll get up.”
“Go ahead, leave.”
Riley left, and not long after, the Lady Viscount entered.
“Honey, how did it go?”
“I ended it roughly well.”
“That’s a relief.”
“I don’t know how much effect this scrap of a contract will have, but at least it’s one less worry for the time being.”
“That’s true. How to please her now. My head already hurts.”
“Match her as best as you can, she’s no longer a pushover.”
“Ugh, I’ll try…….”
A relationship that has twisted as it will.
While it seems that nothing will change now that the emotional rift has grown too deep, there’s no need to be unnecessarily spiteful.
Ryan, satisfied with Riley’s signed oath, smiled and then gave an order to the servant.
“Send a letter to Duke Lianster immediately, saying we want to proceed with the marriage.”
(This is a time separator.)
“A letter has come from Earl Adaline. They want to proceed with the marriage as soon as possible.”
Gibnen nodded as if there was nothing new in the expected answer.
“Will you proceed?”
“I must. It would be troublesome if someone else takes her, so as soon as possible.”
“That’s true, by the way, the Earl Adaline family is returning to their territory.”
“When?”
“Today. They’re departing in the evening.”
Gibnen looked at a pile of documents that needed to be processed.
The reception had just ended, and there was so much to handle that he might have to stay up all night, but after a brief moment of thought, he rose from his seat.
“Where are you going?”
“My wife is leaving, I must see her off.”
Excuse me. You’re not married yet.
Sark looked at Gibnen as if he was dumbfounded. Nevertheless, Gibnen smiled and picked up his coat.
“It’s your responsibility today. Leave the rest to you.”
What, what!
A shadow fell over Sark’s face as he was suddenly left with the work.
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
[Note: This story will not specifically point out the male lead’s reincarnation time point; it’s all in the details. Whenever you feel that the male lead is acting strangely, he has most likely been reincarnated.]
