All Chapters of I Let My Fiancé Marry His True Love After Rebirth: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

I died when Dante's fortunes were at their peak.At the grand victory banquet that night, an envoy from the Royal Court, the elders of the Fire clan, and representatives of the Northern Merchant Guild all sang Dante's praises.They said he was young and able, that he had brought the Fire Elves into the top five of the Elven Kingdom.What they did not know was that the Fire clan had never made it that far on Dante's efforts alone.I had won over the Northern Merchant Guild and placed the Wind clan's patrol at his disposal. Even the Fire clan's tax plan was mine, written over more than a dozen sleepless nights until it won the Council of Elders' approval.I thought that was what spouses did for each other.And I thought he would remember it.After the banquet Dante poured me a glass of moonberry wine.The moment I swallowed it, heat flared in my chest. It felt wrong, as if fire were burning its way out through my veins.Only when I collapsed did I see Sophia emerge from behind the screen

That evening Dante came to the Wind clan house.He stood below the terrace, still in the red cloak of the Fire clan heir."Get the contract back," he said."The contract can't be retrieved." I looked down at him from the terrace. "It already bears the Royal Court's provisional seal. No one can alter it unless the correction is announced publicly on the wedding day.""Sophia isn't fit to be the lady of the Fire clan," he blurted.I nearly laughed.Of course he knew that.Sophia knew nothing about managing a territory or negotiating with the Guild, and she had no Wind clan behind her. Love was all she could offer Dante, not power or prestige.Dante had always wanted both."But you love her," I said."What use is love?" He frowned. "This is a critical time for the Fire clan. You have the Wind clan's support and understand the Council. Having you marry into the clan would be best for me and for the Fire clan.""So what you need is the Wind clan's strength, not me.""Evelyn, don't twist wha

Duskhold is the center of the Elven Kingdom.It is home to the Royal Court, envoys from every clan, and windship routes leading north.When I reached the Court, Alwyn was studying a map of the border.He was younger than I had expected, with black hair, gray-blue eyes, and a composed expression."Evelyn?" he asked."Yes, Your Majesty."He did not ask about my betrothal, and he did not ask about the Fire clan.He simply pushed the map toward me."The northern Wind Corridor is unstable. Three windships have crashed. The Court needs someone who understands the wind currents."I spent two days inspecting the Corridor.I quickly discovered that storms were not the problem. Someone had been mining firecrystal without authorization, and the heat from the mines was disrupting the high-altitude winds and causing the windships to lose control.And every one of those mines happened to be in Dante's name.In the council chamber, the expressions of several nobles shifted.Alwyn asked me, "Is the ev

Married life did not go as well for Dante as he had thought it would.The first thing Sophia did after moving into Emberlight Manor was replace all the old household stewards. She considered anything sent by the Wind clan unlucky and refused to meet representatives of the Northern Merchant Guild.She did not understand the accounts or the territory, and she would not learn.Dante defended her at first.At a banquet, he declared that Sophia was the woman he had truly wanted to marry. He believed that if he appeared devoted enough, every problem would resolve itself.But accounts do not improve because of love.After the Northern Merchant Guild withdrew, the Fire clan's income plunged. The patrol ran short of funds, and the mines came under Court audit. Yet Sophia kept spending money on jewelry and balls.Once, Sophia dipped directly into the Fire clan's reserve fund to pay for a birthday celebration. By the time Dante noticed, there was no longer enough money to pay the patrol.The patr

The investigation into the Fire clan grew more serious.To cover the shortfall from the mines, Dante secretly diverted funds from the patrol. When Sophia discovered that the household coffers were empty, they quarreled repeatedly.Their arguments echoed through almost the entire manor.Dante came to me again.This time, he brought the dewberry pie I used to enjoy."I remember you like this," he said.The sight of the box felt bitterly ironic.In my last life, while I was busy checking his accounts, he never remembered what I liked and never remembered my birthday.Only after losing the Wind clan's support did he remember such details."Sophia deceived me," he complained. "All she can do is spend money. She is useless at everything else. Evelyn, you are still the one who belongs at my side.""Wasn't she your true love?""I was too young then.""No," I said. "You weren't young. You were greedy."His face froze."You wanted Sophia's obedience and my abilities. You thought everyone would k
