Alia felt a storm brewing inside her as she heard Elias’s words. Her coma wasn’t just due to an illness! She had always thought it was ‘her’ own body’s weakness, but now she realized there was a conspiracy—someone had actually tried to harm Livia. Suppressing the turmoil in her heart, Alia knew the guests at this banquet must hold more clues, so she used her sharp instincts to observe them carefully, hoping to catch some hint of the truth in their expressions.

Elias’s anger was barely restrained, his gaze sharp as a blade aimed at Marcellus, tinged with a long-held frustration. Marcellus’s expression, however, was unreadable—mixed with regret and fury, as though battling some tangled emotion within. Alia scrutinized him, trying to interpret the true meaning behind his demeanor, but even her keen intuition couldn’t fully unravel it. As for Lianna and Adrian, they simply looked shocked, clearly unaware and even a bit fearful as they watched the argument unfold.

  • Reborn as the Wife He Killed   Chapter 196 – She’s Mine

    Night was falling when Emma burst through the castle gates like a storm. Her body was slick with sweat, eyes sharp and scanning the crowd like blades. Without hesitation, she grabbed a passing servant.“Elias! Have you seen him?!” she asked in a low voice, but her tone was razor-sharp, urgency pouring from every word.A few familiar guards nearby paused. Though her appearance was unfamiliar and her clothes plain, they recognized her voice and exchanged surprised glances. One of them whispered, “Are you… the new Captain of the Guard?”Emma gave a quick nod, too rushed to explain further. “Where is he? I need to find him—it’s urgent. Livia is in danger!”The soldier shook his head. “Lord Elias hasn’t shown up today. We haven’t seen him.”Emma’s heart pounded like a drum. She had already tried calling Elias several times on the way here, but he never picked up. A sinking feeling formed in her chest. She hesitated, wondering if she should go straight to the hospital and find Marcellus ins

  • Reborn as the Wife He Killed   Chapter 195 – Stalemate

    The mysterious man and his team finally followed the trail of marks and scent deep into the cave, slowly approaching a narrow crevice. His gaze swept over the seemingly natural pile of stones and tangled vines covering the entrance. With a quiet scoff, he crouched down and easily cleared away the disguise.The opening was narrow—barely large enough for a woman to crawl through. He narrowed his eyes and peered into the darkness. At the far end of the cramped tunnel, he could just make out a faint figure curled up in the shadows. The dim light and tight angle made it hard to distinguish any details, but he was certain—what he sought was in there.“The person inside,” he called out, voice gentle yet commanding, tinged with a smile that seemed to see through lies, “whoever you are, please come out. We can talk. I promise—we won’t hurt you.”There was a brief silence. Then the figure stirred, and a cautious, slightly weak female voice responded.“Who are you people? I’m just a traveler exp

  • Reborn as the Wife He Killed   Chapter 194 – Go Find Elias and Marcellus to Save Me

    Just as Alia was about to sink deeper into those fragmented, flickering memories, an urgent and familiar voice broke through.“Livia! Livia—wake up!”The voice seemed to rise from underwater, distant at first, then gradually sharpening. She slowly opened her eyes, and the first thing she saw was Emma’s face—anxious and filled with concern. The flickering torchlight in the cave cast tangled shadows across her expression.“What happened to you? Are you alright? What is that shard?” Emma asked urgently, her eyes darting between Livia (Alia) and the piece of metal wrapped in cloth.Livia—no, Alia—rubbed her temple, her voice faint but steady. “I… I saw past memories. I think they were mine. When I touched that fragment, it triggered something… something that was sealed. My memories are returning.” She looked up, her tone firmer now. “That metal shard… it’s part of the Grail.”Emma opened her mouth to ask more, but suddenly froze.“Shh,” she said sharply, lowering her voice as she turned t

  • Reborn as the Wife He Killed   Chapter 193: Livia’s Memory

    The mysterious man, along with Will and the silent squad of elite soldiers, waited a few moments longer after confirming that Livia and Emma had entered the cave. Only after ensuring no one else was around did they silently follow them in. In the dim light, the man’s expression shifted slightly when his gaze fell on the finely hidden, intricate symbols carved into the cave walls. He paused, just briefly.“Interesting…” The man ran his fingers along a faint groove at the corner of a rock face, a rare glimmer of appreciation flashing in his eyes. “This technique… Fascinating. I never expected to encounter an old friend like this again.” He let out a faint, enigmatic smile. “Today’s haul may be far more than we bargained for.”Will stood behind him, his brow slightly furrowed as he looked at the unremarkable markings. But he said nothing—he knew the man could read something from them, and he wouldn’t ask what didn’t need asking.“You can read their signals?” Will asked in a low voice.“C

  • Reborn as the Wife He Killed   Chapter 192: The Tracker

    The scene shifts to a secluded mountain path. Livia and Emma had changed into coarse gray garments, cloaked and hooded, resembling two humble village women on a journey. With simple bundles strapped to their backs, their pace was steady and unhurried, and their movements natural—so well-disguised that not a single flaw could be discerned. Sunlight filtered through the branches above, casting dappled shadows over them as they moved, every step carefully measured, every glance sharp and alert.What they didn’t know was that, just a hundred meters away, another figure trailed them silently beneath the cover of the trees—accompanied by a dog. He kept a considerable distance, as if entirely unconcerned with losing them. His steps were so light that not a single leaf stirred beneath his feet. He moved like a shadow, one with the forest—undetectable unless he chose to be seen.Not far behind him, a small unit advanced silently through the dense woods.Leading them was a tall, imposing man.

  • Reborn as the Wife He Killed   Chapter 191: A Trap!

    Several nights ago, under an ink-dark sky, the wind howled softly through tents and stone walls, like a ghost’s sigh. Eryx stood by the narrow window of his study, gazing at the faint glow of the distant army campfires. After a long silence, he turned and looked toward the shadows—where a man stepped forward.The man wore a dark gray cloak with the hood drawn low, revealing only the sharp line of his jaw and a faint, cold smile at the corner of his lips. It was the mysterious figure from before.“You finally came,” Eryx said, his voice low and edged with caution. “I’ve set everything up as we discussed. I’ve made Livia and Marcellus believe we’ve taken the bait. We’re pretending our attention is still on their region. By now, they should have noticed the changes in troop deployment around our expansion zone.”The man gave a slight nod, his tone indifferent. “Good. You’ve played your part well—like someone who’s truly fallen for their trap. But your opponents are no fools. They won’t j
