The Tyrant's Terminally-Ill Childhood Friend (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 90
It wasn’t that Simoren didn’t understand what Peter’s eyes, now turned blue like his own, signified.
He was simply too late. Lowell had already become Peter’s consort.
‘No, it’s not completely too late yet.’
Though he couldn’t claim he’d arrived at the perfect moment, there was still a sliver of hope. If the bonding process had been fully completed, Lowell’s eyes would have changed to match Peter’s exact shade. Yet Lowell’s eyes remained black.
Not entirely black—they were a deep blue—but it was undeniable that this color was closer to Lowell’s original eye color than to Peter’s.
Simoren reluctantly turned his gaze toward Peter.
“Has Lady Anette… become Your Majesty’s consort?”
“The process was underway.”
Just as he’d feared.
“What is it you came to say?”
Simoren squeezed his eyes shut and then opened them again. His original plan had been to inform Peter that Lowell might have visited Noah’s laboratory before Peter made her his consort—but now that the bonding process was already in motion, mentioning it would be meaningless.
Thus, before Simoren departed, Noah had told him:
[If His Majesty has already made Anette Martinek his consort, then assess the situation carefully before acting.]
[Assess the situation carefully? What does that even—]
[Under current circumstances, our best option is to kill Anette Martinek. That way, there will be no lingering consequences.]
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.”
