Reborn as the Wife He Killed Chapter 10: Kisses and Tears
Alia’s body went stiff. Her instincts screamed at her to resist, but her thoughts were a chaotic tangle, leaving her utterly clueless about what to do. In her previous life as a thief, she had navigated countless dangerous missions and lived a rough, unpolished life. She had even disguised herself as a man and shared rooms with other men. Yet, never before had she been so close to a man’s essence like this. The situation felt overwhelmingly intimate.What made it worse—or perhaps more perplexing—was that this man before her wasn’t just any man. He was stunningly handsome, exuding an innate masculinity that left her both unsettled and faintly spellbound.Her internal alarms blared, but her body refused to obey. Her hands clutched at the bedsheet, her chest heaving with rapid breaths. After all, the man leaning over her was, in name at least, her husband. His nearness, his intimacy—it could all be justified. If she rejected him now, wouldn’t it raise his suspicions? Would he think she w

At dawn, Alia rubbed her still-throbbing temples and slowly climbed out of bed. Memories from the previous night swirled in her mind like relentless waves, leaving her restless until morning. She forced herself to freshen up, trying to appear composed, then pushed open the door to her room.Standing outside was Elise, holding a neatly folded set of clothes and a steaming cup of tea. Her face carried the usual respectful smile, and it was clear she had been waiting for quite some time.“Good morning,” Elise greeted softly, stepping forward to hand Alia the tea. “Lord Marcellus left early this morning, saying he had important business to attend to. He mentioned he might not return until late tonight.”Alia nodded, her thoughts flickering briefly: So, Marcellus did sleep in the castle last night. But after everything that happened, I wonder if he’ll return tonight. At least I won’t have to worry about… intimacy for now.The memory of last night’s events brought a faint blush to her cheek

Alia knew there were countless mysteries still shrouding her, but she also understood that her most urgent task was to regain the skills and abilities she possessed in her previous life. Resolutely, she set aside her tangled thoughts and focused on rebuilding her physical condition.“Elise, help me buy some equipment,” she ordered her maid decisively.“Equipment?” Elise blinked in mild surprise. Though curious, she nodded and complied without hesitation.When the shopping list was handed to her, Elise realized it was far from a typical list of gym equipment like dumbbells and barbells. Instead, it included items she had never encountered before: a balance beam reminiscent of a narrow log bridge, staggered obstacle boards, a climbing rope net, and multiple jump platforms. Bewildered, she didn’t dare ask questions and simply followed Alia’s instructions to gather everything.A few days later.Alia stood before the equipment, now delivered and neatly arranged, a faint glimmer of satisfac

Alia halted, her gaze icy as she fixed her eyes on Elias.“What do you know?” Her voice was low and carried an unmistakable authority.Elias smirked faintly, a playful glint in his expression. He didn’t answer immediately; instead, he casually adjusted his cuffs, speaking in a slow, deliberate tone:“Let’s take our time, Livia. Truth is never something revealed all at once.”There was an enigmatic undercurrent in his words, as if he already knew everything yet was intentionally probing. His calm and collected demeanor only heightened Alia’s wariness. She took a deep breath, swiftly reining in her emotions.“What are you talking about?” Her tone turned steady, tinged with coldness and denial. “I was simply unwell—no one is out to harm me.”Elias chuckled softly at her response. His laughter carried no mockery, only a trace of pity. Taking a few measured steps closer, he lowered his voice and said:“Ah, you can fool others, but not me. We were so close once.” Leaning in slightly, he loc

“Do you have something you want to tell me?” Alia asked, her tone calm but probing, as if testing Elias’s true intentions.Elias fixed his gaze on her, his expression unwavering.“That depends on whether you’re willing to trust me. Perhaps I can help you uncover the truth.”His words carried a weight of intrigue, a mix of an extended hand and a veiled implication that he held crucial information. This made Alia more acutely aware that Elias was far more complex than he seemed. He was not merely a flirtatious, carefree nobleman—there was a depth to him, as well as a plan. Whatever their history as Livia and Elias, it had threads that extended far beyond mere private affection. Elias must have his own schemes and goals.This realization lit a fire within Alia. She knew she couldn’t fully trust him, but outright rejecting him might close a valuable lead. For now, she needed to tread carefully.“Even if that’s true, I’ve lost my memory, I don’t know what I am able to do.” Alia replied, fe

Marcellus stood at the entrance of the training ground, his dark robe draping to his ankles. The heavy fabric and meticulous tailoring accentuated his tall and commanding presence. Though his figure was cloaked in the shadow of the doorway, his imposing aura was impossible to ignore. His brow furrowed slightly, his gaze calm yet deep as a still pond, fixed intently on Alia as if attempting to decipher some hidden clue from her expression.Alia’s heart tightened but remained outwardly composed. As an experienced “thief,” lying had become second nature. She tilted her lips into a faint smile and spoke with deliberate calm:“Oh, I was just talking about Elise.” Her tone carried a hint of exasperation, her eyes even showing a trace of reproach. “She got curious about the equipment and couldn’t resist trying it out. She nearly fell, so I scolded her and told her not to touch anything. I sent her off to do something else, thinking she might have snuck back to bother me again.”Her words wer

Alia followed Marcellus, her hand in his, her mind occupied by the subtle differences between the brothers’ hands. Step by step, she allowed herself to be guided toward the study. The moment they crossed the door, her gaze was immediately drawn to the room before her.It was an opulent study, fitting for someone of Marcellus’s stature as the wealthiest man in the city. The space was vast, with a soaring ceiling adorned with intricate floral carvings. A massive crystal chandelier hung at its center, radiating brilliant light that reflected off the polished surfaces of the room. Dark oak bookshelves lined the walls, filled with heavy tomes whose embossed covers and gilded titles spoke of immense value.At the heart of the room stood a grand desk, its finely carved legs and intricate surface detailing a testament to exquisite craftsmanship. On it sat an antique globe and a gilded quill pen, its ink bottle emitting a faint, fresh scent as if waiting for its owner to write at any moment.N

After her initial shock subsided, Alia took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down. She slowly sat back in her chair, pretending to be nonchalant, though her vigilance was at its peak. Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind—did this mean she was already close to the legendary “Holy Grail”?Her eyes instinctively scanned the room—the arrangement of the bookshelves, the patterns on the walls. With her years of experience as a thief, she was certain this room held secrets. Perhaps a hidden chamber, and perhaps the Holy Grail was concealed within.As she became absorbed in her observations, Marcellus suddenly appeared before her. He bent down, his deep eyes locking onto hers, and with his long, elegant fingers, he gently lifted her chin. His voice was soft and low, carrying a hint of tenderness.“Darling, what’s wrong? What are you looking at? Or… searching for?”Alia stared at Marcellus. His gaze was tender and affectionate, his tone filled with concern, but this only made her

Adrian held Elise tightly, as if afraid she might vanish from his embrace once more. His palm gently stroked her back, the warmth seeping through the fabric, carrying emotions too deep to put into words. He didn’t rush to speak, only lowered his head and looked at her carefully, as though engraving her image into his very soul.Elise’s face was still streaked with tears, her reddened eyes making her look like a delicate fawn that had just cried. She turned her face slightly away, lowering her head in embarrassment, her voice carrying a faint sob, “Don’t… don’t look at me like that…”Adrian let out a soft chuckle, his tone tender yet tinged with indulgence. “Why shouldn’t I? You don’t even know… what I’m thinking.” His voice was deep and hoarse, laced with exhaustion. “Do you have any idea how terrified I was when I heard what Livia said?”Elise’s heart clenched at his words. She reached out and clutched his sleeve, her eyes flashing with guilt. “I’m sorry… I never meant to deceive you

Adrian paused for a moment, then lifted his gaze to Alia, his eyes burning with determination. “Of course, I care about family and power, but that’s not what I truly seek.” He clenched his fists, his voice carrying an unshakable resolve. “Livia, I heard what you told me before. I know that as long as I am strong enough, I can be with Elise. She has no noble background, no prestigious surname, but if I gain enough power, I can marry her, and no one will be able to object.”He took a deep breath, his tone unwavering. “To achieve this goal, I must become stronger. I must claim the right to speak for my family.”Alia’s gaze flickered for a brief moment before the corners of her lips curved into a knowing smile, as if she had been waiting for this answer all along. She nodded slowly, satisfied.Elias, standing nearby, raised an eyebrow in mild surprise. He had initially thought Adrian was just another noble shackled by the constraints of his upbringing, but it turned out his ambition was d
Reborn as the Wife He Killed Chapter 115: Family and Power
Early the next morning, Alia immediately called Adrian. Though she had teased Elise the previous night to ease her worries, she knew full well that if Adrian found out about Elise’s sudden disappearance, he might act recklessly in unpredictable ways.The call was answered quickly, and Adrian’s voice carried a hint of fatigue. “Sister? What’s the matter so early in the morning?”Leaning lazily against her chair, Alia spoke in a casual tone. “There’s something I want to discuss with you. Come to Elias’s house.”Adrian hesitated for a moment, his voice tinged with doubt. “Elias? Shouldn’t Marcellus be handling matters like these? And why not talk at the castle?”“Because I need to keep this from both Marcellus and Edgar,” Alia replied, her tone calm but leaving no room for refusal. “I’m making some adjustments and upgrades to the expansion plans in secret. When the time comes, you’ll surprise them both, which will boost your image and performance in front of them. Whether you come or not
Reborn as the Wife He Killed Chapter 114: I Am Not Her Daughter
Seeing that Elise had finally calmed down, Alia let out a soft sigh. After a brief moment of thought, she said slowly, “You shouldn’t return to the castle just yet. Stay here and wait for my message. But don’t worry too much—since my father has already made his decision, he won’t do anything to you. He has far more important matters to deal with. Now that he knows you’ve left, he won’t be paying attention to you for the time being. Just rest here and recover. I’ll keep you informed.”Her tone was steady and soothing, a rare trace of comfort in her words. “The most important thing right now is for me to see where Adrian stands. If he disappoints me and chooses his family and power over you, then you should stop thinking about him. I’ll have Marcellus recognize you as his sister, and you won’t have to be my little maid anymore. You’ll be my sister instead—staying in the castle, living a good life, and one day marrying someone you truly like.”Elise was momentarily stunned, her eyes turn
Reborn as the Wife He Killed Chapter 113: Edgar’s Letter
The letter was written on the finest parchment, the ink bold and unwavering, each stroke carrying an undeniable sense of authority. Though only a few lines long, it bore the heavy weight of the family name, making it difficult to breathe.Elise,I have watched you grow and know you to be a kind and sensible young woman. I am not unaware of your feelings for Adrian, nor have I ever doubted your character. If I were to entrust my son to you, I could rest assured.However, you must understand that Adrian carries the bloodline of this family. This is not a matter of personal bias but the unyielding rules of our lineage, a constraint upheld by the nobility for centuries. Your birth, ultimately, determines that you will never truly be a part of this world.Since Adrian has made his choice, I will not stand in his way. You may be together, and I will not interfere. However, from this moment on, Adrian will no longer be the heir to this family. He will lose the support of our house. His futur

A few minutes earlier, Emma and Livia had driven away. Emma, unable to hold back her curiosity, asked, “You don’t actually believe her, do you?”“Of course not,” Alia replied calmly. “Her parents traveling without informing her? That’s impossible. And if they had told her, why would she have returned? Naturally, she’s lying. But if I expose her directly, she’ll only spin more lies. I know her—if she truly intends to leave, she’ll do it tonight. Let’s drive away for a while, then secretly return to the village entrance. It’s the only road out. We’ll catch her there.”As expected, Alia’s plan worked. They ‘caught’ Elise.The night was deep, the countryside road silent. Only the wind rustled the treetops with a whispering sound. Emma and Alia stepped out of the car, walking unhurriedly toward Elise’s vehicle. The black silhouette of the car stood in the dim light, like a silent confrontation waiting to unfold.Elise sat frozen in the driver’s seat, her eyes flickering with unease as her

The soft glow of the room’s lights cast gentle shadows over the wooden furniture, while a faint scent of timber lingered in the air, bringing a sense of peace and comfort. Though the space was small, it was tidy and exuded a warmth that felt like home. On the table sat a basket of fresh groceries, suggesting that Elise had just returned from a trip outside. She hadn’t even had time to start cooking before Alia and Emma’s unexpected visit.After inviting them to sit, Elise’s calm demeanor did little to ease Alia’s furrowed brows. She locked eyes with Elise, her gaze sharp with lingering suspicion. Slowly, she spoke, her voice laced with a gravity that demanded answers.“Why haven’t you been answering my calls? And why did you suddenly leave without a word? What exactly happened?”Elise lowered her gaze, her fingers unconsciously twisting the hem of her sleeve. After a moment of hesitation, she finally responded, her voice soft yet firm.“I’m sorry, Livia… The signal here isn’t great, s
Reborn as the Wife He Killed Chapter 110: Reunion with Elise
After a series of challenges, Emma and Alia successfully evaded the patrolling soldiers around the castle and silently slipped out. Under the night sky, the quiet country road slowly came into view under the glow of their car’s headlights. Although the darkness seemed to offer them some cover, both of them knew that this night would be anything but ordinary. Emma drove an old yet steady vehicle, speeding along the countryside road. The car’s stable hum and the occasional sounds of insects mixed to form a serene nighttime scene.Soon after, they arrived at Elise’s hometown. The car stopped by a quaint little bridge, where the moonlight bathed the river, creating a mirror-like surface that reflected the shadows of trees and a nearby cottage. This place had none of the bustle of the city or the excessive luxury of urban life. Instead, it exuded an ancient, tranquil feel. The air was filled with the earthy scent of soil and the fresh, green fragrance typical of the countryside. The houses
Reborn as the Wife He Killed Chapter 109: Elise Is Missing
As Alia stepped out of the training hall, she instinctively glanced around, expecting to see Elise waiting for her as usual, holding a cup of warm tea. But today, Elise was nowhere to be found.Alia frowned slightly, recalling the past—no matter how late her training ended, Elise was always there, like a caring younger sister, ready with a fresh towel and warm tea. Yet today, she was absent.Turning to Emma, Alia lowered her voice and asked, “Have you seen the girl who’s always with me?”Emma raised an eyebrow, pondered for a moment, then shook her head. “No, I haven’t seen her at all today.”Alia’s frown deepened. She wasn’t upset about Elise not attending to her—after all, she had never treated Elise as a mere servant but as a sister. What she felt now was not displeasure but worry.Her first thought was that Elise might have gone to see Adrian, but she quickly dismissed the idea. Alia knew exactly how Elise felt about Adrian. Elise had never sought Adrian out on her own; it was alw
