I read spoilers and this one is going to be sad.
OG kishin: love Clacey and married Clacey, Clacey dies and he stays single till his death where he meets Clacey (our FL) in heaven
Main story Kishin: loves clacey and was already in relationship (?) but broke up with her and married Meron to keep Clacey safe and lied to her, divorce Meron after several months and remains depressed and single (at least according to when Dernick meets him last)
OG Dernick: married Meron bcs he felt obligated due to his false belief that Meron’s mother saved him (but it was actually FL), but it was a political marriage and he did not love her, frequently stayed out of their house. After Meron dies, rather than care about her he felt guilty towards Kishin as he believed it’s his fault meron inadvertently killed Clacey
Modern Dernik: s he learned early on that Clacey was his benefactor that saved him and falls in love with her while not really interacted much with Meron. I think he stays married to clacey but he knows that kishin will always have her heart.
The ending really is our fl, clacey cant let go of her feelings for her OG husband Kishin. I think he comes back as a ghost as one point in the current timeline. Clacey was trying to go back to the OG timeline but he said they would reunite in heaven.
So in the afterlife, Clacey and her OG husband reunite there.
More spoilers here: https://www.novelupdatesforum.com/threads/husband-thief.177109/page-3
the whole point is in the afterlife, she wants to spend eternity with her first husband from the first time line so kishin from timeline 1 before the niece messed things up.
whetehr or not the second husband is with her in the afterlife is not the point, because she chooses eternity with the first husband
its mostly because she spent her second life with the white haired so now she wants to fufill being with her first husband. they were about to have a baby in the first timeline before the neice ruined eveyrthing. he would speak to her through magic and the first timeline kishin didnt marry anyone else and died hoping to reuunite with her in the afterlife. After death in the second life, the fl hopes for the same.










can someone expain the ending to me please? i skipped to the end
