Chapter 49 My Husband Lives Inside a Painting I couldn't help puffing out my cheeks. Perhaps feeling stifled, he loosened the red ribbon tie around his neck slightly. “Haah... I'm sorry, Ellie.” “Do you... not like holding me?” When I asked him so directly, Ruth couldn't hide his embarrassment. “No, it's not that...” “If it's not that, then what is it?” “Ahem! Hm, hm!” Ruth cleared his throat repeatedly before reaching for a glass of cold water and downing…-

Chapter 48 Ruth smiled and nodded. “There’s a place on the very bottom floor of the tower that only you and I can open.” “The very bottom floor? How many floors are there?” At my question, Ruth became vague. “Hmm. Anyway, it’s deep down. But it’s not a good place for you to go in your current state. You need to be able to use enough of the Divine’s holy power to open it.” The Divine’s holy power. That was a concept I couldn’t even dream of using in my current…

Chapter 28 My Husband Lives Inside a Painting In stark contrast to the noisy banquet hall, the corridor was so quiet that not a single person's shadow could be seen. It wasn't until I was left alone in the middle of the chilly corridor that I finally came to my senses. What was I thinking? Just because he had hair that resembled my husband's, I had followed him without a second thought? The realization that I still hadn't escaped the shadow of my dead husband felt like proof that I…-

Chapter 27 My Husband Lives Inside a Painting I hurriedly continued speaking before he could get any farther away. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to say that because I don’t trust you.” “……” “But put yourself in my shoes. If someone you barely knew suddenly said something like that to you, wouldn’t you be confused? You don’t even know what my plans are.” At my words, Claude suddenly stopped walking. When I looked up at him, slightly flustered, he paused for a moment…

Chapter 33 Whoosh—! The arrow flew swiftly in a straight line and pierced the rabbit directly through the heart. From the recoil, the blue fletching at the end of the arrow fluttered in the air. The gamekeeper waved the red flag, which reached up to his waist, in a wide arc. When he shouted loudly, “A direct hit!” Lucan, who had been holding his breath as he watched, finally exhaled. He gave Joshua, who was lowering his bow, a light slap on the shoulder and grinned brightly. “As…-

Chapter 32 At Charles's words, Marquis Berichmen straightened his back and scoffed at his son. With a glance, he looked pointedly at the hand Charles had placed on Eleanor's shoulder. “Kid. You shouldn't say things like that. If anything, I think your hand is making her more uncomfortable than I am.” Kid? Eleanor looked at Charles with a bewildered expression. He narrowed his eyes into a gentle smile and shook his head as if he had no choice. “Father. I told you to call me by my name…

Chapter 30 “Suho.” “Hmm?” “Are you dating someone these days?” “…What?” I awkwardly shook my head. “You’ve been staring at your phone and grinning to yourself since early this morning.” “Oh my. Mom, look at Suho’s face. He’s turning red.” “N-no, it’s not like that.” “Of course it is. It’s written all over your face.” I had been texting my team leader, after all. But we weren’t at that stage yet. “Hmmm. Who is it? A…-

Chapter 29 “...Report.” The report began in the suffocating atmosphere. “It has been confirmed that Wire Credit committed accounting fraud on the scale of five trillion won, and the authorities immediately launched an investigation. However, the CEO and most of the executives had already fled overseas in advance. As a result, Wire Credit is essentially... a company without management.” In other words, it had suffered damage from which it could not recover. “There’s really no way to…

Chapter 23 “You cried.” Yet those were the first words he offered her, and they were rather unexpected. “I didn’t cry.” “You might cry if it hurts.” Jihoon said this as he took another step toward Eum. Only then did his left shoulder, which had been hidden behind the curtain, come into view, revealing that he was holding something. “Here.” “What is it?” “Citron tea.” Perhaps he had made it himself in the chairman’s office.

Chapter 22 Monday morning, Eum got ready for school early. At last, today was the day the School Violence Committee would be held. Her family hadn’t come home at all over the weekend. Since she had reached an agreement with Chairman Seong, Eum had expected Chang-shin to call at least once, but her phone had remained completely silent. She had no idea what was going on, but she wasn’t particularly anxious about it. Rather than worrying, she was too focused on what she needed to do from now…
