After My Husband Took a Mistress

A highborn young lady from an illustrious family married a prince’s guard against everyone’s wishes, then helped his impoverished family climb back into high society. Less than three years later, the husband who had once promised to love only her for life began sneaking around with his childhood sweetheart, got her pregnant, and wanted to take her as a concubine.

Fine. After three years of playing the virtuous wife and loving mother, I’m tired of it. Having an affair? Don’t hide her away. Bring her home and watch how I deal with her.

My wicked mother-in-law is secretly poisoning me, hoping I’ll die without a trace so she can seize the family fortune? Fine. You can have the household accounts. I’ll let you pile up an enormous debt, then leave with my dowry. Let’s see if the debt collectors don’t drive you to ruin.

The scumbag husband is determined to protect his pregnant concubine? I’ll drag her male lover out and expose them both in public. You impotent dog of a man, I just didn’t feel like having children. It’s not that I can’t.

What? You’re using my family’s rules to keep me in line and refusing to divorce me?

I’ll find you a fourth woman myself. Lured by wealth and power, the scumbag husband eagerly signs the divorce papers and rushes off to his fourth woman’s arms, only for her to kick him aside like trash in an instant.

As for me, I’m a happy divorcee. I vow never to marry again, keeping both my reputation and my freedom. My business is thriving, and life couldn’t be better.

But you there! I don’t want to fall in love, and I definitely don’t want to marry into the imperial family. Can you stop bothering me?
