“Collapsed? Did you see her collapse with your own eyes?”

Marcellus suddenly cut him off, his gaze sharp as a blade, his voice low yet edged with interrogation.

Elias’s shoulders jolted ever so slightly at the question. He lowered his eyes, his hands curling tightly around the armrests of the chair as though forcing himself to remain composed. “No…” he admitted with difficulty, shaking his head. “I wasn’t there when it happened. Someone later came to inform me that she had suddenly fainted. My chest tightened the moment I heard it, and I sent someone to find you right away. Whatever the current state of your relationship may be, you two are still bound by law as husband and wife. I felt you deserved to be the first to know what had happened to her.”

Marcellus’s brows knit into a deeper frown, his tone hard and cold as iron. “So you don’t know why she collapsed either?”

“Of course not.” Elias’s reply was soft, heavy with helplessness and remorse. His hand rose almost instinctively to r

    Elias lowered his gaze, his voice heavy with fatigue and guilt.“I swear to you—that was all. That was the closest we ever came. I admit, even then, I had my doubts about everything, but my feelings for Livia clouded my judgment. I let my affection blind me, and in doing so, I ignored the truths that should have been obvious. Looking back now, that night was filled with inconsistencies, yet I chose, almost instinctively, to cover them up. Later, I did make some inquiries, piecing together fragments here and there… and with all that has happened recently, it finally led me to…”“To accept the explanation the moment I hinted at it.”Marcellus’s voice cut across his words like a blade, cold and sharp. His gaze, piercing and unyielding, locked onto Elias with such force that it seemed intent on stripping away every layer of pretense.Elias pressed his lips into a tight line. For a moment he considered averting his eyes, but forced himself to meet that glare head-on. He gave a slow, delibe

    Elias frowned slightly, hesitating for a moment before speaking with cautious restraint, his voice probing as though he were testing unsteady ground.“Could this… perhaps be a misunderstanding? I’ll admit, I’ve never been fond of my brother, but he isn’t the kind of man who would do something like that.”The moment the words left his lips, Livia’s head snapped up. A cold light flickered in her eyes, her tone sharp, dripping with scorn.“Oh? You’re defending him? Hah. Of course—you two brothers, birds of a feather.”The sudden venom struck Elias like a blade. He froze, staring at Livia in disbelief. Tonight, she felt different, unfamiliar. The gentle radiance he knew seemed veiled beneath a darker shadow. Her words were edged with barbs, her manner restless and strangely urgent, leaving him unable to decipher her true intentions.Sensing his hesitation, Livia’s gaze softened, her voice lowering into something almost coaxing, a subtle lure hidden in her tone.“I know… you’ve admired me

    Elias’s gaze flitted around the room, his fingers unconsciously twisting the edge of his sleeve, brows tightly furrowed, as if weighing whether to speak—or avoiding the awkwardness and pain that might arise if he did. Inside, a whirlwind of complex emotions churned—on one hand, he wanted to be honest with Marcellus, to let him know Livia’s true thoughts; on the other, he worried that his words might make the situation more tense, even deepening the rift between them.His breathing grew slightly rapid, his throat felt blocked, and every time he tried to speak, hesitation swallowed the words. Tiny beads of sweat appeared on his palms. In the air, he seemed to be grasping for a straw to steady himself—but there was nothing to hold onto.Finally, Elias let out a soft sigh, his gaze falling on the chair beside him, as if he had made up his mind. He slowly walked over, pulled the chair in front of Marcellus, movements heavy with hesitation and a subtle lack of strength, as if sitting down w

    “No wonder… before all this, even though I didn’t like you, you were always a good person. You and Livia… you were like a perfect match made by fate. I never thought I had a chance, and could only keep my feelings buried in my heart. So that’s it… everything makes sense now.” Elias’s eyes flickered slightly, as if he had suddenly traced all the subtle hints of the past and finally understood. He spoke with a mixture of revelation and resignation, his brows furrowed, the corner of his mouth twitching into a faint smile—surprise, comprehension, and a quiet release of emotions he had carried for so long.“But that doesn’t seem right,” Elias continued, his tone softening as he fixed his gaze on Marcellus. “From what I know about Livia and your relationship… she wouldn’t have been disappointed or hopeless because of that. She would have trusted you unconditionally, or at least communicated with you.” There was concern in his voice, and perhaps a hint of envy as well, as if he were trying t

  • Reborn as the Wife He Killed   Chapter 310: Confession

    Marcellus leaned quietly against the headboard, his gaze lowered, his eyes hollow, as though staring into a past long beyond his reach. After a long silence, he finally spoke, his voice hoarse and heavy, each word weighed down by pain:“I should start… from when my relationship with Livia fell apart.”His tone carried the restraint of someone in agony, as if every syllable tore at his chest.“At that time… the Holy Grail’s influence on me was overwhelming. It crept into my mind bit by bit, corroding it. It made me cold, irritable… even cruel in ways I didn’t recognize as my own. I thought I could suppress it, pretend nothing was wrong. But in truth… I was no longer myself.”He slowly closed his eyes. In his mind, the memory replayed vividly: candlelight wavering in the dark of night, the air of the chamber heavy and cold, his own guttural growl echoing as he lost control. In the dim glow, the fragment of the Grail pulsed with a grotesque rhythm, like a beating heart tugging at his blo
