I’ll Become the Heroine’s Capable Divorce Partner - Chapter 1

This romance fantasy novel, which flaunted its ‘refreshing romance fantasy’ nature from the title itself, was the web novel I had enjoyed reading most in my previous life.

But if I had known I would possess into it, I wouldn’t have read novels and would have just washed my feet and gone to sleep…

Ah, let me wipe away some tears first.

The story of the novel goes roughly like this.

The female protagonist Isabel enters into marriage with the Laventess Ducal House, one of the most prestigious families in the Empire.

But the problem was that the Laventess Ducal House was a damn terrible, worst, lowest trash dysfunctional family.

Her husband’s infidelity and neglect, his domineering attitude.

Add to that the harsh married life under her mother-in-law and the subtle disrespect from her sister-in-law.

Unable to endure all those hardships any longer, Isabel eventually coolly dumped her trash ex-husband.

After that, she meets the destined male protagonist and rises triumphantly.

However, as everyone knows, it’s hard for refreshing moments to exist without frustrating buildup.

So who was that source of frustration?

Me.

It was me.

Elodie von Laventess.

The Laventess Princess who reigned as the greatest flower in High Society with the Empire’s only ducal house as her backing.

A luxurious villainess who possessed both beauty and wealth.

A common villainous sister-in-law who contributed to Isabel’s harsh married life.

And even after the divorce, she was a morally bankrupt piece of trash who couldn’t change her ways and treated Isabel even more cruelly.

Looking at this, Elodie’s situation seems pretty decent, but well.

If that were the case, I wouldn’t be lamenting so extensively like this, would I?

I clearly said it earlier.

The Laventess Ducal House was a ‘damn terrible, worst, lowest trash dysfunctional family.’

Elodie had perfectly assimilated into this dysfunctional patriarchal family and fawned over her brother like a tongue in one’s mouth.

But her flattery was completely useless.

The trashy nature of this family is clearly proven just by looking at the scene where Elodie exits in the story.

‘Are you really going to marry me off to Marquis Bartsen?’

At her brother’s announcement, all color drained from Elodie’s face.

And for good reason, as Marquis Bartsen was a man at least twenty years older than Elodie.

Although he was wealthy and prestigious as a member of the Imperial Family, he was unsuitable for Elodie, who had just come of age, in many ways.

‘Please reconsider just once, I beg you…!’

Elodie became a mess of tears and snot as she desperately clung to her brother, but it was completely useless.

Her brother coldly cast her aside.

‘I’ve fed you, clothed you, and raised you well until now, isn’t that enough? What more do you want?’

‘Brother!’

‘You need to pay the price for acting all high and mighty as a princess. Isn’t that right?’

There, Elodie realizes.

That her existence was merely a flower raised beautifully to be sold off for the highest price.

That among the suitors who wanted to purchase Elodie, the marquis had paid the highest price.

And that price would go straight into her brother’s pocket.

But it was too late a realization.

In the end, Elodie was married off to Marquis Bartsen as if being sold and met a suspicious death.

It was publicly known as death by illness, but well.

There were rumors circulating secretly that she had fallen victim to the marquis’s sadistic tendencies…

“No, this isn’t right!”

I, who had been lying on the bed, couldn’t contain my anger any longer and kicked off the blanket as I bolted upright.

If it were about being ruined by Isabel’s revenge, that would be one thing.

But being consumed like this just to express the terribleness of the Laventess Ducal House isn’t right!

What’s worse, the kind-hearted Isabel, upon hearing the news of her wicked former sister-in-law’s death, felt very sorry and expressed her condolences… Are you kidding me?!

‘I can’t just sit here and take this.’

I gritted my teeth hard.

My survival plan is this.

To escape that terrible ending, I ultimately need to become independent from the Laventess Ducal House.

However, in that process, I need to make sure the ducal house can’t carelessly mess with me.

Fundamentally, I should protect myself by growing my own influence, but…….

‘Still, it’s good to use everything I can possibly use, right?’

That was how I decided to wholeheartedly support my sister-in-law’s divorce.

By making all the ducal family’s attention focus solely on the divorce lawsuit, my movements would become even freer.

Our arrogant brother who acts all high and mighty as Duke Laventess would have his reputation fall to the ground.

And my beloved sister-in-law would finally be able to scrap her Trash Car!

‘Good.’

I’ve decided.

I clenched both my fists tightly.

My lady, I will take responsibility and assist you so that you can divorce successfully!

So please don’t forget my hard work after your divorce. Understood?
