Life After Divorce (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 41
Edmund raised one eyebrow and looked at me as if to ask what I was talking about.
“No… Did it really seem that way?”
“Me? What about me gave you that impression?”
Edmund scrunched up his face and retorted coldly. Well, I suppose he had a point—being dragged here against his will to watch an opera probably wasn’t making him feel particularly cheerful.
Edmund subtly slid the opera glasses toward the stage. My head naturally turned that way.
“It’s about to begin. Go ahead and feast your eyes on your beloved handsome man.”
“If you say it like that, it sounds as if I’m terribly fond of good-looking men.”
“Are you saying you’re not?”
“That was meant to imply I’d like you to keep that secret until I’m in my grave.”
Hah—Edmund’s lips parted in a faint smirk.
Soon after, the theater darkened further, and the signal for the opera’s opening sounded. We calmly settled in to watch.
The actor famed far and wide as an extraordinary beauty wasn’t nearly as striking as rumored—merely passably handsome, at best.
‘Wait… Could it be because of him?’
Relying on the dim stage lights, I stole a quick glance at Edmund. He sat with one leg crossed over the other, a hand resting against his temple, watching the performance with cool indifference.
For ten straight minutes, he held that same posture with not the slightest movement, maintaining his sharp, self-centered contours.

Xie Zhi and Fang Xianxing who had known each other for less than three days through a blind date sat in the same car in front of the civil affairs bureau. They had a disagreement and failed to get married.
Xie Zhi immediately took out his phone, slid through his contacts, and randomly selected the next marriage candidate.
The woman snatched his phone and hung up. Looking at his phone wallpaper, she awkwardly changed the subject: “An ancient painting, eh? It looks pretty good, it’s just that the person in the painting looks a bit like me.”
When he heard this, he sarcastically mocked her for being so delusional, completely unaware that, the person in front of him was the reincarnation of Wen Ru, the famous prime minister of Yuan Shun whom he most admired…

“I’ve decided to forgive you.”
Really! I’m amazed! Not that he will apologize, but that he will forgive. Shocking! ☉Ô☉
Ugh, goosebumps shot up the back of my neck and a wave of nausea surged through
Oh. What should I say?! Prison will not be enough for him. He deserves to die.
“…It seems she caught a chill.”
Edmund, you don’t want to tarnish the Countess’s honor. But at least tell a lie is better than a chill.
