Her Grace, Lady Lamein of the Duke of Calypse.
She, with her beauty at first sight, had received countless courtings from the nobles before her marriage to Cedric.
Lamein dealt with them with a meltingly tender charm and gaze, as if she would give them everything. And then.
“It seems you’ve misunderstood. I’ve never given my heart to you.”
Just before their desperate affection towards her exploded, she cut them off in a clean sweep.
The scandalous lady who is fond of men.
The proud lady of the duke’s family who looked down on everyone.
These were the adjectives that followed Lamein around.
Among the noble young lords, there were whispers of caution towards Lamein. The ladies were always busy tearing her apart whenever they gathered.
Lamein was aware of this fact, but she lived a more freespirited life.
Almost defiantly, you could say.
One day, the second son of Duke Roger.
She was notified of her marriage to Cedric Roger.
During a time when the war between kingdoms for territory was fierce.
The ‘Kingdom of Martin’ won the war against the ‘Kingdom of Lator’ and dominated it.
The father of Lamein, Count Calypse, made a great contribution to the victory of the Kingdom of Martin.
Heter Calypse, once a war hero of the ‘Kingdom of Lator’.
He betrayed the Kingdom of Lator and took the hand of the Kingdom of Martin.
Now, Count Calypse, the hero of the Kingdom of Martin, was given the title of duke.
However, there were always side effects following such drastic changes as the merging of the two kingdoms.
The proud nobles of the Kingdom of Martin did not hide their hostility towards Duke Calypse.
The reason was that the wicked man could betray once again.
But the king could not easily dismiss Calypse, who brought him victory. He knew that there would be backlash.
Instead, he chose another method.
Her Grace, Lady Lamein of the Duke of Calypse.
Young Lord Cedric of Duke Roger.
It was their marriage.
Duke Roger was a person who had contributed greatly to the economic development of the Kingdom of Martin through his outstanding diplomatic skills and business acumen.
Also, he was recognized by the nobles for his excellent character.
The king’s judgement was that no one would easily oust Calypse, who had formed a connection with such a Roger.
The two, who were used as political tools to suppress the noise.
The noble lady from an enemy kingdom that once had swords pointed at each other.
Cedric didn’t like her, but he couldn’t disobey the king’s command.
“There will be no love between you and me. But we need to appear as a good couple in front of others.”
At the words of her husband, whose blue eyes did not show a single thread of emotion.
“Don’t think I’m a stupid woman who wants love. I’m just using you.”
The wife answered with an even colder look.
What did she mean by using him?
To protect the honor and wealth of her father?
“A stupid woman who only likes money and men, as the rumors say.”
Cedric thought it was rather good.
If he quietly lived like this and divorced when the backlash against Duke Calypse from the nobles subsided, it would be enough.
But the life that followed was not as quiet as he expected.
In the original, Lamein caused problems as if she had decided to do so after marriage with Cedric.
He knows very well. It’s cheap even if Lamein gets cursed at. But.
“It doesn’t mean I have to live like that in the future.”
She might have been Lamein in body, but there was no reason to live her life as her.
No. She didn’t want to live like that.
“Lamein. What do you mean?”
A rather calm voice for a man who has been notified of divorce came out.
“Just like I said. Let’s get a divorce.”
The man who had been staring at her for a long time as if time had stopped, his lips slightly curled up at one side.
He’s handsome even now. But.
“Being handsome is one thing. I’d rather die than live like this again.”
Recalling her past life that was unbearably sad, she felt a surge of anger.
How sad must she have been.
“In the next life, absolutely! I will never live a sad life. Got it? You damned world!!”
She wondered if she thought like that just before she died.
Before Cedric came to the room.
She vowed over and over again never to live a sad life again.
She decided to give up being a villainess who would flatter in front of a man who doesn’t like her.
That’s why she chose divorce.
“Cedric. That’s what you wanted too.”
There’s no answer from Cedric.
“Isn’t it?”
When she asked as if to hurry him, he erased the faint smile he had been keeping at the corner of his mouth.
“Are you saying you’ll defy the king’s orders?”
That was the precise reason he had held onto this marriage.
“That’s wrong. We’ve already followed the king’s orders. We’re married.”
Lamein gently raised her chin.
“The king’s orders didn’t include us living happily and well, did they?”
Her upright gaze was full of determination.
Cedric, who had been looking down, raised his head.
“Of course, you have a point.”
“Then let’s get divorced.”
“But I wish you wouldn’t bring up divorce so easily.”
My Arch-enemy Sealed My Memory and Said That He is My Husband
This is an incredibly captivating story that you absolutely shouldn’t miss! I’ll give a brief introduction here, and below you’ll find a detailed synopsis of the plot.
The female lead is a fierce and powerful demon king. The male lead is a once-in-a-millennium celestial lord, admired by the entire cultivation world.
They are equally matched, legendary rivals who have battled for centuries.
In the final duel, the female lead is gravely injured. The male lead saves her, seals her memories, and hides her true identity. He tells her that he is her fiancé. His entire life has been flawless—except for the one thing he never expected, never controlled, and never wanted to control: falling for his greatest enemy. She is his inner demon, his obsession.
When the female lead regains her memories, she is furious at his deception.
She makes his life a living hell.
And somehow, the male lead—possibly a total masochist—doesn’t mind at all. In fact, he’s happy she’s paying attention to him.
Yep, we’re back to my favorite trope: male lead suffering. If you love this kind of story, jump into the pit with me now!!!
Intro
Dong Xia lost her memory.
Her handsome and extremely powerful fiancé Li Qing comforted her: “It’s okay if you can’t remember. I’ll always be with you.”
Everyone thought Dong Xia’s ancestors must have burned incense to get such a perfect fiancé. He was the number one person in the immortal realm, yet he remained chaste and only loved her.
…
The day before marrying her fiancé, Dong Xia finally remembered everything.
She wasn’t suffering from memory loss at all.
Her arch-enemy had made her fake her death, destroyed her cultivation, replaced her memories, and pretended to be her deeply in love fiancé.
No wonder he said, “It’s okay if you can’t remember”!
Dong Xia laughed coldly as she pulled out her long knife: Li Qing, prepare to die 🙂
*
Li Qing, as the supreme being of the immortal realm, was the people’s shining beacon.
The only unknown stain in his life was his affection for Dong Xia, the ruler of the demon realm.
In the final battle of the war between immortals and demons, the sky collapsed and the earth shattered. The ruler of the demon realm was finally slain under the sword of the supreme being of the immortal realm, and everyone in the immortal realm applauded.
The cultivation world lost a ruler of the demon realm.
And in the back mountain of Li Qing’s cave dwelling, he secretly hid away a fiancée.
Notes:
1. The female lead is white on the outside, black on the inside, and the queen of flattery; the male lead repeatedly tests the edge of darkness, a VIP guest at the crematorium.
2. Fantasy cultivation world setting.
