To Save An Ex-Husband Who Worries Me

In this life, I will live apologetically, your majesty.

Rudbeckia von Seneber Lorkan.

She, who married Benedict, the new emperor of the Lorkan Empire who ascended the throne through a coup, was poisoned just a month after becoming the Empress.

Her life was as good as that of a corpse, with her entire body stiffened.

She had long grown tired of her father and brother who visited once a week, her friend Irene who came every other day, and her husband Benedict who visited daily.

Rudbeckia wished for eternal rest more than anyone else, and she thought, fortunately, that her wish had been granted.

Yes. She should have closed her eyes forever like that…

For some reason, she returned to the time before he initiated the coup.

“Your Highness.”

Rudbeckia tilted her head as she looked at the twenty-six-year-old Benedict.

In the past, I didn’t know that you knew I saved you, nor that you had held me in your heart since then. Even in this moment when your expression is grim, you probably like me. But knowing that doesn’t change anything.

Because I couldn’t live the same life as before.

“I sincerely hope that Your Highness is not in danger and that you are happy.”

Please live a life where you no longer feel sorry for me.

“Safely, you must meet a good match and raise imperial heirs.”

In this life, I will live apologetically, Your Majesty.
