Ex-Wife Too Hard To Woo

Rachel played the willow branch in her hand, as her troubled thoughts slowly returned to her mind.

When she had got the news that her father had hanged himself in the palace, she didn’t feel sad at all.

She felt that her father had purely deserved it.

He had ruined the relationship between her and Sethaden, and he had trampled on the blood of countless people in a vain attempt to achieve the so-called hegemony in his blueprint.

What happened in the end?

He was forced back by the Fitzgerald army and eventually took his own life.

The only thing she was worried about was the whereabouts of her brother Alfie, and his mother, the demon concubine. She was afraid that they would have a hidden agenda to hurt Stehaden and make him suffer.

Rachel gently shook her head. In fact, she had worried too much.

Sethaden was already famous in the world, and now he was even more powerful and indestructible.

The demon concubine and Alfie were no match for him. And if they wanted to do anything bad to him, they would only end up like Alexander.

In order to show his generosity to his meritorious officials, Emperor Casey gave the palace in Pingliang to Sethaden as his residence to be stationed there.

Thinking of that wise young man who had turned into a totally indifferent person, Rachel let out a bitter smile.

He didn’t trust her anymore. But Scarlet had become his treasure.

Now she only had one year left. If she couldn’t get him to tell her that he loved her, her life would be in danger!

In fact, after going through so much, Rachel was no longer afraid of death.

She just wanted to grow old with her beloved young man.

The road ahead was bumpy and difficult, but she still entertained the hope for happiness.

She also believed that the young man would fall in love with her again.

Every day in the afternoon, when Sethaden returned from the military camp, he would pass by this path.

Rachel sat in the tree just to, for once, take the initiative to throw herself at him.

She bet that if she deliberately pretended to fall from the tree, he would catch her.

If he caught her, she would have succeeded in her goal, and she would be stuck on him. By then, he would never be able to get rid of her. She would have to take advantage of the opportunity to conceive his little baby.

Her Sethaden had asked her to have a baby for him, and with a baby, he would not ignore her as he did now. He might say to her, for the baby’s sake, that he loved her with all his heart.

When she saw Sethaden coming from afar, Rachel threw away the willow branch in her hand and planned to jump down from the willow tree.

At about the same time, Rachel gave a push to herself and she quickly jumped down.

“Sethaden, help!”

Rachel opened her arms, intending to hug his man as hard as she could as he had hugged her.

But he didn’t stretch his arm.

Hearing her voice, he glanced coolly in her direction. His eyes were cold, without the slightest light, and his aura was also cold, as if the frost and snow had covered him all over.

He withdrew his eyes from her expressionlessly, as if she was just an insignificant stranger, leaving her, heartbroken to the bone.

Rachel landed heavily on the ground.

It was a stretch of gravel road. Although the tree was not high, it still hurt when she fell from it to the ground.

The sharp edges of the small stones cut the skin on her leg. Tears welled up in her eyes.

In the past, Sethaden wouldn’t have acted like this.

In the past, when she had fallen from even greater heights, Sethaden would always hold her in his arms precisely.

After holding her, he would coax her carefully, for fear that she might get scared.

He would also gently check her body. Even if Rachel hadn?? t got hurt with his protect, he would still been worried that there would be bruises on her that would make her painful.

And now Sethaden couldn’t be bothered to give her a look. Even though the bright blood on her feet dripped down drop by drop, he did not even turn his head.

Rachel had tried to hold back her tears, but she was really hurt by his cold attitude. She couldn’t control her emotions anymore, and drops of tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes.

“Sethaden, my leg is cut. It hurts.”

Rachel sobbed pitifully as she then spoke, “Sethaden, I’m not lying. Look, my leg is bleeding a lot.”

With that, Rachel struggled to lift her leg, wanting Sethaden to take a look.

Unfortunately, he didn’t even want to turn his head. No matter how hard she struggled to lift her leg, it was useless.

Sethaden’s footsteps did pause for a moment, and his voice, which was as pleasant to the ear as the most beautiful music in the world, carried a detached coldness, “Rachel, what tricks are you trying to pull again?!”

“Rachel, don’t forget your own identity! If you dare to play tricks in front of me again, there will be no room for you here anymore!”

With that, Sethaden did not stop for a moment. He disappeared like a strong pine with frost and snow.

‘Rachel, don’t forget your own identity…’

Rachel took a strong breath. She had always remembered her own identity:

-The princess of a conquered country.

-The evil person who almost killed Sethaden.

If Sethaden hadn’t wanted her to die so easily, she would have been dragged to the guillotine and killed by a thousand cuts.

At the thought of the hurtful words Sethaden had said to her the other day, Rachel’s heart choked again.

‘Rachel, don’t make a fool of yourself!’

‘The only reason I didn’t kill you was because I didn’t want you to die so easily!’

Rachel wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes. She knew better than anyone how Sethaden hated her now. But she had always been thick-skinned. She would not admit failure not matter what Sethaden said.

She deceived herself by telling herself that Sethaden didn’t want her to die because he still had feelings for her. After all, death by a thousand cuts was a painful way to die.

So, she still had chances to let him fall in love with her again.

There were rumors spreading that Sethaden would marry Scarlet next month, and she couldn’t let her man marry that bad thing.

She would have to quickly swoop down on her Sethaden and get pregnant. In this way, Sethaden could only cancel his engagement to Scarlet.

With such thoughts, Rachel couldn’t even bother to treat the wound on her leg. She got up from the ground with some difficulty and limped towards Sethaden’s study.

In the past, when she and Sethaden were in love, Milan and Zak were subservient to her.

But ever since that incident at her and Sethaden’s wedding, they had hated her to the bone.

With Milan and Zak guarding the door to Sethaden ‘s study, she could not enter the door for sure. Rachel decided to jump in through the window.

Since she was little, Rachel’s best skill was climbing trees. Jumping in through a window would have been a piece of cake for her. However, she had injuries on her legs. The move was really a challenge now.

She had to jump, as she itched to seduce this handsome and charming young man!

After Rachel gritted her teeth and jumped in through the window, she raised her head and saw something she shouldn’t have seen.Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
