An Incomplete Divorce (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 140
The blood-stained wedding dress had to be found before it vanished.
It was the only thing that could prove Olivia hadn’t merely imagined it.
Her steps quickened with impatience. But before she could even leave the bedroom, Olivia’s arm was seized.
“Let go of me.”
Olivia whirled around and glared at Johann.
“I’ll find it myself.”
“You don’t trust me.”
“…….”
Olivia, sharp-edged and resolute, shook off Johann’s grasp. Their clashing gazes hung in a silence as heavy as the eve of a storm.
In that precarious quiet, Johann gazed at his wife. Her eyes, once trembling with fear, had darkened like an abyss, erecting walls between them.
“Step aside.”
“Olivia.”
Johann sighed as he spoke her name.
She was showing symptoms eerily similar to the time she’d been addicted to alcohol and drugs.

Liu Changning transmigrated into a female cannon fodder character in a female-dominant novel.

The first time, she drove him away. Forced by the situation, he endured the waves of anger in his heart, yielding and humbling himself.
That person lay slanted on a rocking chair, her sallow face emotionless: “If you don’t want a divorce, go cook!”
Pei Yuanshao’s face was dark and gloomy: “You!”
The second time, after the crisis in Jinling City was resolved, the new emperor sent someone to pick him up. He turned around, stammering: “I… I have to go. If you keep me…”
That person lay on the kang bed, her back to him, as if she had long anticipated this day, crisp and clear: “Goodbye!”
Pei Yuanshao was so angry his fingers trembled: “You… you!”
The mission of family and country made him restrain himself, averting his eyes and turning to leave this broken household.
Two years later, they met again. Seeing her ethereal face, his body shook like a sieve.
“She was originally a ‘she’!”
At the Qionglin Banquet, the top scholar of the imperial examination, a talented person with exceptional speech and conduct, all the unmarried young gentlemen from aristocratic families looked at her with shy and timid eyes.
The peerless imperial official Pei Yuanshao felt the anger in his heart erupt. He pointed at the woman surrounded by the crowd at the Qionglin Banquet, his thin lips slightly curled: “Little sister, I wants that person to be the wife-master of my Mingde Prince Manor.”
