Life After Divorce (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 106
Held captive by those fervent eyes, my eyelids trembled faintly. Unable to utter a word, I gazed up at him in dazed silence, and Edmund furrowed his straight brows, letting out a stifled groan.
It was after his hands—until then gently enclosing mine—had fallen away. The air touching my skin now felt distinctly colder.
“I’m sorry for putting you in such an awkward position.”
His apology sounded self-reproachful and tinged with melancholy, making it painful to hear. Though this situation arose from my own hesitation, it seemed he alone bore the weight of guilt, which broke my heart. My throat tightened, and I barely managed to speak.
“…I’m fine, so please don’t apologize.”
Edmund glanced at me briefly, lowered his chin, and let out a self-deprecating chuckle.
“If you knew what I was just thinking, you wouldn’t say that.”
With a face that slowly wiped away all traces of amusement, he stared straight into my eyes and spoke.
“…I thought I’d force an answer out of you, no matter what it took.”
Right after saying that, Edmund sighed and rubbed his eyes with his long, slender fingers. I faintly caught him muttering that this wasn’t what he’d meant to say.
How could I possibly convey these feelings? How could I untangle his confusion? How could I…?
Just then, my eyes widened. A clear answer emerged vividly from the tangled mess inside my head.
‘Well, if you don’t know the right answer, just be honest. That’s the closest way to reach it.’
I bit my lip hard enough to hurt.
Being honest had always been a lifelong challenge. As a child, I didn’t know how to express myself. As an adult, pride kept me from revealing my deepest vulnerabilities—I’d always believed that being honest meant surrendering to the other person.

When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did
“How dare you!”
“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?
“I will never accept that.”
“I will never let you return to him.”
“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”
“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”
“I will never let you escape me!”

This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!
At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.
Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.
The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.
Synopsis:
Want to see how a green tea bitch male lead falls in love with the female lead?
Want to see how he flirtatiously pursues the female lead?
Want to see how he gets slapped in the face repeatedly?
The male lead is a green tea bitch, a poisonous lotus, jealous, ruthless, unscrupulous, with a venomous heart, and he’s also a delusional maniac.
The female lead is righteous, positive energy-filled, kind, a holy mother.
Let’s see how two people with extreme personalities come together~
