HIS REGRET (Ex-Husband wants Me Back)

“Let me be your real wife for just one month, Daven.” It was a simple request—one that sounded like the last plea of a heartbroken woman. But to Althea Grayson, it was her pride. The price she asked for the love she had given, yet never once received in return. She had known from the start: their marriage was never about love. Daven Callister had married her out of duty, pressured by his grandmother. There were no tender embraces, no loving glances—only cold silence and an empty house that never felt like home. Still, Althea held on. She tried to be a good wife, clinging to the hope that one day, Daven’s heart might soften. But her hope was shattered by betrayal—Daven wanted to marry someone else. The woman he truly loved. With or without Althea’s consent. And his entire family stood behind his decision. Heartbroken and disillusioned, Althea made one final request: one month of being loved like a real wife. One month... before she walked away forever. Daven thought it was a desperate move—pathetic, even. But that single month changed everything. The way Althea smiled, the way she loved so fully. Even the way she left—left something behind that lingered in Daven’s heart. And now, Daven was lost. When the love he had never once recognized finally revealed itself... was it already too late? Or should he fight against everything—just for one more chance?

For three years, Nyla had been the perfect, submissive wife. In return, she received betrayal, humiliation from her mother-in-law, and Clark’s sickening justification that his affair was merely a "physical necessity" while he still loved her. He believed Nyla was trapped, tethered to him by her father’s astronomical medical bills. He thought she would swallow the insults and raise his mistress's child. He was wrong. Selling their mansion, gathering evidence, and delivering irrefutable proof of her infidelity… Nera turned and left, donning a white lab coat instead of an apron, transforming overnight into a top-tier pharmaceutical researcher who had astonished the industry.

My Departure Gave the Noblewomen Nervous Breakdowns

I had been a manservant for three women of nobility. The first was the sick and weak Crown Princess. She used me to experiment on medicine to save her childhood love who had been sent to another kingdom far away as a political hostage. The second was the scheming Ninth Princess. She clutched me by the collar and sneered, "How dare you covet the true heart of your master when you're just a mere pawn?" The third was the pure and aloof High Priestess. She turned away from me while saying, "You're just a lowly, unrefined manservant who is nothing but a speck of dirt in my eyes." When I was of age, I accepted the Palace's grace to leave and prepared to return to my home village and marry my childhood friend, who was also a Palace maid. The Crown Princess snatched the edict for my release and kept me locked up in her private quarters, while the ruthless Ninth Princess said with tears in her eyes, "You're mine, even in death."

Maybe I should have seen it coming. Our refrigerator is covered with magnets listing Ryan's food preferences. "No onions. Nothing too strong. No spicy food." Even the top suggestion in Nora's navigation app leads straight to Ryan's apartment. And when we meet with the wedding planner, she keeps repeating the same things. "Ryan likes champagne gold. He wants an outdoor wedding on a lawn." The planner eventually pulls me aside, clearly confused. "Mr. Reed, aren't you the groom? Then who is Ryan?" I give her an awkward smile, too embarrassed to explain. Ryan is my best friend. Somehow, without either of us ever saying it out loud, he has slowly taken my place. And now, as Nora prepares to marry me, she can't even remember my name.

I Gave My Marriage Away in Seven Days

In the second year, Waverly gives our master bedroom to Tobias and sends me to the guest room. I tell Tobias to move out immediately, but Waverly just opens the door and claims he is only staying for one night. In the previous year, Waverly brought Tobias to dinner with the Gardner family and let him sit in my usual seat. She even told her parents to treat Tobias like a son-in-law. She only pulled me back when I turned to leave the dining table. "Do you really have to make a big deal out of how my parents treat him, Xavier?" Waverly and Tobias take it a step further this year. Tobias drags his suitcases into our house, pulls out a brand-new set of keys, and asks me in front of everybody. "Waverly said I could live as the husband for seven days. You won't be upset with me, right, Xavier?" Waverly wraps an arm around his shoulder, clearly looking forward to it. "He'll definitely be jealous if he really loves me." Everybody's waiting for me to blow up like I do every year, then have her laugh and call an end to the game, but this time, I simply head back to my room and start packing my belongings instead. I place my wedding ring and the house key in Waverly's hand before leaving. "I think seven days is not long enough. Xavier can have my position as the husband for good."
