All Chapters of Your Greatest Mistake Was Me: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

“Great. Now it’s not just my divorce scandal that has become a national issue. I’m even being accused of cheating.” I laughed out loud at how ridiculous all of this was.“At least you’re getting more famous, Sera.” Lucien grinned, giving me a quick glance before turning his attention back to his monitor.“I’d rather be unknown and not get harassed. Do you know how many insults and curses have been flooding my account, Lucien? I haven’t even had the chance to explain anything. I don’t even know who I supposedly cheated with. Ridiculous.”It had been days since Vaeldric’s divorce petition was filed with the Royal Court, and the public had gone completely wild because all the rumors had finally been proven true. Strangely enough, everyone was questioning why Vaeldric was the one who filed for divorce.Obviously, the fault was mine, because I was the respondent. As if they had all forgotten how Lysara’s affair and pregnancy had been trending a while ago.Unfortu

POV VAELDRICI’m used to battlefields. But today, for some reason, one name on the screen in the meeting room was far more distracting than any report of a threat along the border.LADY SERAPHINA VERMONT.I looked away, searching for anything that could distract me. Anything involving Seraphina shouldn’t be my concern.But I was still legally her husband. Even though the divorce petition had been filed under my name, the case was still far from reaching court. I could barely bring myself to care anymore about who had used my name without permission.Though deep down, I knew it was Father. Who else had that kind of authority?I didn’t want to do anything anymore. In the end, I would always be Father’s robot and pawn.Especially now that Seraphina had chosen to leave. What could I do? I had tried almost everything. Pleading with her, even pressuring her. But none of it worked.If she was really that stubborn and no longer considered me her husband, then I would give her what she wanted.

SERAPHINA POVBy eight in the morning, I had officially become the most hated person in Valerion. What a fantastic way to start the day.On the other hand, I kept bracing myself for something even worse.Oh, come on. I've learned from experience. Usually, all the bad things come one after another, as if they're pulling each other along.“Sources claim that Lady Seraphina and Crown Prince Adrian Valerian...”I didn't need to hear any more. I immediately turned off the TV as soon as I walked past it. Lucien, who was lounging on the sofa while listening to that pointless gossip show, glared at me.“Why did you turn it off?”“I just want some peace. The host is too loud this early in the morning.”I walked over to him and took a sip of the coffee sitting in front of him without permission. Lucien didn't even seem interested in scolding me.“You just hate the fact that they're still so enthusiastic about talking about you.”He immediately took

Three days later, I found myself standing in front of the Evermont estate, wondering why I had agreed to come.The occasion was simple enough. Lord and Lady Evermont were celebrating their twenty-fifth wedding anniversary.Twenty-five years of marriage. Impressive. Meanwhile, mine hadn't even made it to seven. We didn't even make it past the aluminum anniversary. Perfect timing.“Stop looking like you're attending a funeral.” Lucien stepped out of the car behind me, adjusting his jacket.“I’m considering leaving.”“You say that about every social event.”“And yet, I’m still here.”“Unfortunately.”I glared at him while he simply grinned.The Evermonts had always been close to House Vermont, which meant declining the invitation would have been unnecessarily rude. Besides, it wasn't a royal event.No palace or official ceremony. And most importantly, no Crown Prince. Just a private celebration attended by several noble families.It should have been easy. At least, that was what I though

I was staring at a financial report that made absolutely no sense. House Ashbourne should have been struggling.I had already frozen the assets registered under my name months ago. Several financial arrangements tied to my marriage had been withdrawn as well.Yet Ashbourne's businesses were still operating.That bothered me.One... two... three...I turned another page. Then another. The numbers didn't match.Damn it. So much had slipped past me all this time. No wonder there hadn't been any significant impact on their businesses, even though they'd wavered for a while.I went through the numbers one by one. Aside from Magnus's business acumen and influence, which still held considerable weight, these funds were also helping House Ashbourne's business lines stay afloat.“Every business involving Vermont and Ashbourne. I want the contracts, payment records, profit distributions, investments—everything.”This time, nothing could be overlooked. Sebastian and the financial advisory team'
