I was reincarnated into a reverse harem romance fantasy novel. And not just as any character, but as Evgenia—the most notorious villain who relentlessly bullies her younger cousin, the female lead, and stalks the Crown Prince, who’s one of the male leads, despite being a married woman! But here’s the thing… The villainess’s husband is actually my favorite character. So, while the main characters are free to live their lives as they please, I’m planning to live happily ever after with my beloved. However… “Please, let’s divorce, my lady.” My husband, on the verge of tears, makes an unbelievable request. His teary eyes soften my heart despite myself. Alright, if it’s for my favorite character… If what you really want is a divorce with me…! “No, I won’t. Go back to your room.” One thing is clear: I’ll never grant him a divorce! I tore the divorce papers right in front of Euclid’s face. Somehow, word got around, and soon, the Crown Prince, the High Priest, and the Master of the Assassins’ Guild all came to see me one after the other. “If you divorce, I’ll consider making you the Crown Princess.” The Crown Prince, who once said he wouldn’t even take me as a mistress, is now spouting nonsense. “I will give everything I have to support you.” The High Priest, the female lead’s first love, suddenly pledges his devotion to me. “Master, do you no longer need my eyes?” Why are you calling me your master? You’re not even my s*ave anymore! And now, even the Assassins’ Guild Master, who I threw away ages ago… Why are all these guys, who should be obsessed with the female lead, causing chaos here? I told you, I’m not getting divorced!
