The Ex-Husband Demands Reunion (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 40
“Then Lord Mild shall speak. Everything that happened that day, from beginning to end—every word and action between Ellen and His Highness.”
At Philip’s command, Lord Mild’s expression stiffened. He glanced at Alexandre before asking Philip,
“Every word and action… you mean?”
This only worsened Philip’s mood further.
‘What? I gave the order—why is he checking Alexandre’s reaction?’
Alexandre merely shrugged his shoulders.
“You wanted to know about the countess’s past, didn’t you?”
“Hm. Well, then.”
Lord Mild cleared his throat.
“I shall report everything exactly as I saw and heard it.”
The two men and Domingo leaned in attentively.
From Lord Mild’s lips, the events of that day flowed out steadily.
There were no secrets. Even the nature of Ellen and Alexandre’s past relationship was revealed in his testimony.
A faint smirk rose at the corner of Alexandre’s mouth, while veins visibly throbbed on Philip’s forehead.
“He said, ‘If it’s the Ellen you know, do you think she’d willingly divorce Philip?’”
Male lead is a Divorced Husband
She said to him: “Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change it!”
Liu Changning transmigrated into a female cannon fodder character in a female-dominant novel.
After reading the first half of the novel’s plot, the first thing she did upon transmigration was to divorce the Pan Jinlian-style male protagonist she had just married.
She indulged herself, pretending to be ugly and poor.
But as time passed, the way that man looked at her became more and more unusual…
Liu Changning was dumbfounded: Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change!

This lifetime, Pei Yuanshao was rejected by the same woman twice!
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.”

Philip and Ellen are a great acting duo. They fit together very well.
The night I’d spent with him felt like a dream, a realm of pure fantasy.
Will this time not Ellen hit or kick Philip?! She seems awake this time.
