Chapter 37 I had thought that he was angry about something, but suddenly, the face of Ruklrus, who had been looking at me, turned red. At the same time, it felt as though his mood had gently softened. “……?” The voice that had sounded pained became somewhat gentler. “It wasn’t the you of now… I was shaken by what the original Elly said.” The original Elly? “For a brief moment, you were there with all your memories. Judging by the way you’re acting now, though, it seems…-

Chapter 20 My Husband Lives Inside the Painting “Ugh… damn it.” Gail woke with a terrible headache, and a suppressed groan escaped his lips. “Where… am I?” Staggering as he got to his feet, Gail cast his gaze into the distance. A field of sunflowers stretched as far as the horizon. The sunflowers, reaching up to his waist, held their heads proudly toward the sky. But there was something strangely bizarre about the sight. The overwhelming bright-yellow color was…-

Chapter 19 It was then, amid the heavy silence, when the clinking of tableware seemed unusually loud. “Cough, cough!” The Count suddenly broke the silence with a fit of coughing. His face had gone pale as he accepted the handkerchief offered by a servant and wiped his mouth. Swallowing a sigh, he steadied his breathing before speaking again in a grave voice. “…My strength is no longer what it used to be. I’ve called every physician in the capital reputed to be skilled, but nothing…

Chapter 18 At that moment, Gail’s eyes turned cold. “When did I ask for your opinion?” “Y-yes…?” “Know your place. How dare a mere servant speak so carelessly.” “I-I’m sorry. Young Master—no, Young Count.” “The choice is mine to make. If you cross the line one more time, I’ll have your mouth sewn shut.” “Yes…” His own dignity was more important than anything else. Only after crushing the insolent servant who had dared to overstep his position did…

Chapter 17 A woman who secretly sent a gift to another man not long after her husband had died. If that was the case, then it seemed reasonable to assume that the two of them had some sort of intimate relationship. ‘But… she didn’t seem like the kind of person who would go that far.’ Then, all of a sudden, Claude felt ridiculous for even thinking about it. “My lord, why have your eyes turned into triangles again? You suddenly look terrifying.” “……” “I told you not…

Chapter 25 “Your Majesty. I-I'll be more careful from now on. I promise this will never happen again. If you would only forgive me this once—” “No. There won't be a second chance. One mistake like this is enough.” “Your Majesty…? Ah…? Aah!” She had been gazing up at the Emperor with rapturous eyes when pain suddenly overwhelmed her, and she screamed. Her trembling eyes dropped downward. A sharp fruit knife was buried in the left side of her chest. Seeing the blade…-

Chapter 24 Instead of answering the question, Charles looked out the window. Outside, the Marquis of Berichmen had apparently gone out at some point and was running around excitedly. Looking more closely, Charles saw that he was holding an insect-catching net in one hand. Several servants and maids were following closely behind him as he ran about energetically. Every one of them looked terrified, their faces pale with worry that the marquis might trip and fall at any moment. It would be…

Chapter 23 Charles's study generally had the same gentle and warm atmosphere as he did. The walls and ceiling were covered in beige-toned wallpaper, and the books on the shelves were neatly arranged in every compartment. Beneath the chandelier were several dark beige sofas. To the right stood a mahogany desk and chair, while on the other side of the sofas was a round tea table with chairs around it. Everything was clean and simple. After entering the study, Charles immediately walked toward…

Chapter 22 “Hm? Assistant Manager Kang. You came to work today?” “Ah, yes. I should work hard.” “Haha. With a return like that, nobody would complain even if you took an entire month off. You're really dedicated. Anyway, good luck today.” “Yes, sir!” Maybe it was because I'd diligently applied the medicine from the pharmacy to the nose I'd overloaded yesterday and kept up with the supplements, but thankfully, my nose was perfectly fine now. Besides, skipping work just…-

Chapter 21 The atmosphere in the trading room had grown heavy. Like the sea just before a storm, the office was unnaturally quiet, yet a sharp, fishy tension hung in the air. Beep—! The moment the market opened, notification sounds rang out from every direction. As the biotech sector began attracting attention, money was pouring out of every other sector. “……” Team Leader Oh swallowed hard as he watched the trading volume surge in the corner of his monitor. The biotech…
