First Love Never Dies

My husband is going to fall in love with another woman.
It’s male lead’s destiny to love the female protagonist.

And I’ve become my husband’s former wife, the one who must die before that happens.

I was his first love who would hurt his heart, but in the end, someone who’s just an extra would be forgotten as a memory.

Dying as per the original work is out of the question,

I don’t want a life of political marriage either,

And the thought of being cast out by my husband in the future is terrible.

If that’s the case, the only answer is a quick divorce….

“A divorce application without cause will not be granted.”

The problem is that it’s not up to me!

You say I need a justification to divorce because it’s a marriage arranged by the Emperor?

Then, shouldn’t I just create a reason?

“I don’t understand why you keep talking about divorce. Were you that lonely?”

Rashid naturally wrapped his arm around my waist. I found myself helplessly embraced in his arms.

Through my thin chemise dress, Rashid’s body heat gently transmitted. Along with the warmth, his scent intensely washed over me.

“What are you…”

Just as I was about to say, ‘doing,’

Rashid turned his head, attempting to press his lips against mine. His face drew closer and closer. It was about to touch mine at any moment.

“No!”

I quickly raised both hands to block his lips.
