According to the domestic law of the Cigarette Kingdom, two submissions of documents are required for a complete divorce.
The divorce application document and the divorce confirmation document.
A week ago, what Count Philip Morris submitted to the court was the divorce application document.
From the day it was submitted, the couple had to spend a period of one hundred days in reflection.
During that time, living apart was prohibited, no matter how much they despised each other.
The second submission, the divorce confirmation document, could be sent to the court at any time during the reflection period.
It was sealed upon arrival at the court and opened by the judge on the day the reflection period ended, who then delivered the final verdict.
If one of the spouses had stamped their approval for divorce, the divorce was finalized; if neither sent the documents or both chose to cancel, the divorce was invalidated.
Up to this point, it seemed reasonable.
But opinions differed on this clause.
First, the mansion they lived in definitely belonged to the head of the household. The spouse had rights to the property they had personally amassed and the alimony received from the head of the household.
Since the head of the household was the owner of the family, it made sense that the house was theirs.
But it seemed unfair that the spouse could receive alimony only as much as the head of the household determined.
It might have seemed thrilling in a novel, but as a party to the divorce, it was worrying.
Ellen’s luxury was only a story of when she was the Countess.
Philip would give Ellen a small twostory house in the city as alimony.
And he took back everything except the dress she chose. It was economic sanctions fearing that Ellen would continue her malicious acts.
Ellen clung to Philip, screaming and bawling, not wanting to leave the mansion. Naturally, she was driven out in a miserable state, delighting the readers.
But, unfortunately, Ellen did not live in poverty afterward.
She had so many dresses. More than could fit in a small twostory house.
From that time on, Ellen lived by selling her dresses. And she continued to ruin the protagonists using things like Mild’s detective agency.
“Ah.”
I got another hint for survival here.
“If I don’t cling to cancel the divorce, and gain some favor, there won’t be economic sanctions, right?”
With luck, he might give me a better house than a small twostory one.
And if I could gather gold and other assets in advance, life afterward would be easier.
‘I can take the property I’ve personally formed, so it’s better to work quickly.’
Doing business as a Countess is easier than as a divorced Countess.
“In any world, it’s good to live if you have a lot of money… okay.”
I murmured to myself and stamped the confirmation blank of the second divorce document.
Now if I send this document to the court, the judge will open it a hundred days later.
‘Looking at how Ellen clung to Philip in the original…’
Ellen had stamped the cancellation blank of the divorce document.
In the novel, Ellen thought that if she could embrace Philip, the divorce documents would be canceled.
She trusted the power of flattery, but she had completely misunderstood.
Philip had decided on divorce after long contemplation.
From the moment he mentioned divorce, it was already an irrevocable situation.
Philip’s character was as straight as bamboo and unchangeable like a pine tree.
That’s why an old king could believe and entrust the real hidden heir to him.
‘It’s just shameful to cling.’
I dropped the wax on the envelope containing the documents and pressed it hard with a seal.
The ring seal with the family emblem.
It felt really elegant and grand to use something that was only mentioned in the novel.
‘Heehee.’
I called my shadow knight, Mild, suppressing my rising smile.
Mild’s entrance created a gap in the door, and a maid quickly scrutinized my mood.
Living with Ellen must be hard on them too.
“My lady?”
The one who carefully assessed my expression asked cautiously.
“Did something good happen today?”
Oh dear, my expression management must have failed. I fiddled with the documents, feeling awkward.
Certainly! Here’s the translated passage:
“Ah, the tea is ready? I lost track while preparing the documents…”
I couldn’t very well say that stamping was fun.
I swallowed an unspeakable comment with a slight smile, and Lord Mild’s astonished eyes turned to the documents.
“Send this to the court.”
As I handed over the papers, Lord Mild gulped.
“Are you really sure it’s alright to send this?”
Judging by his grave expression, he must have guessed what the documents contained.
“What could possibly be wrong?”
“…Yes?”
“It’s nothing. Just make sure to send it.”
“Yes?”
“You know, divorce can happen in life?”
“YeYes?”
“No?”
“YeYes, that is correct.”
Lord Mild, flustered by my contradiction, accepted the papers.
“Oh, Lord Mild.”
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.
