Life After Divorce (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 31
After Rail left and the door closed, silence settled over the study.
Edmund, who had been reviewing documents for a while, let out a sigh, undid the top button of his shirt, and sank deeper into his chair. His gaze suddenly fell upon the green grape tart Rail had left behind.
“It’s from that famous tart shop. Lady Etricia asked me to deliver it as a token of her gratitude. She said she chose it based on your preferences.”
Edmund stared at the green grape tart as if locked in a silent battle.
He felt an inexplicable sense of frustration and irritation—something even he couldn’t understand. Why did it bother him so much that Etricia had drawn a line and refused his help? Especially considering she was dealing with the very person who had tried to kill his own sister.
He’d heard the report—how she’d slapped him twice, then feigned tears to sway public opinion—but… hadn’t he been thinking this since last time? Wasn’t she far too defenseless? Wasn’t it practically inviting danger?
She flinched at the mere sight of ice, trembled at great heights, and yet showed no fear whatsoever.
Thinking again of Etricia’s cold, decisive boundary, his stomach churned anew.
“Wasn’t she the one who claimed we were in the same boat? Seems she’s already jumped ship on her own. Such a willful woman.”
He was furious even at himself for faltering in his caution toward her, swayed by such meaningless words.
Of course she’d say something like that—she was the type who feigned sweet smiles to win his favor.
Tsk. Edmund clicked his tongue, picked only the green grapes off the tart as if he couldn’t bear to look at it, popped them into his mouth, and resumed his work with deliberate chewing.

Lirien, who had been glum after her appointment with Etricia was canceled, hurried home upon hearing Etricia had bought her a tart as a gesture of goodwill.
As she rushed out of the pastry institute building, Lirien spotted a small group of trainees gathered together.
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.

Haha! Lirien is so cute. But rushing to reconcile people often leads to problems.
‘You think you’re the only one holding hostages, Devon.’
It seems that Etricia has a counter-plan. I thought she had fallen into Devon’s trap.
