All Chapters of The Invisible Strongest General. Ex-wife's Regret.: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

The next day, Edward arrived at the courthouse. His arrival was greeted by Elizabeth and the rest of his family. Especially Great, Elisabeth's younger brother, who looked at him with a cynical gaze, the one who always made Edward look bad in the eyes of others."Look who's finally here!" Great exclaimed, his voice filled with mockery when Edward's figure finally appeared, striding alone towards them. "This loser is really slow." His tone emphasized his unconcealed hatred.Elizabeth said nothing, but her gaze spoke more than a thousand words. Her sharp eyes followed Edward's every step like a hawk stalking its prey. A heavy sigh escaped her chest, but she remained silent, holding back every word that swirled in her head. When Edward reached them, Elizabeth finally opened her voice, her voice cold and firm."You are truly shameless, Edward," she said matter-of-factly, her tone cutting through the silence like a sharp knife. "How could you show up after keeping us waiting for so long, a

The girl let out a long sigh; she looked down and looked at Edward; there was a forced smile there."No, nothing major happened. Everything is fine.""Are you sure?"The girl nodded. "Yes, I'm sure. Umm... for the salary issue, you can come to the finance manager to calculate your salary and bonus.""Thank you for that, but are you sure everything is okay? Miss Kyla, talk to me; maybe I can help." Edward believed.Another intake of breath was heard, making Edward even more certain that bad news had just happened. Through his eyes, Edward tried to reassure her."Yes, you're right, Edward. Something bad just happened, and your decision to resign was the right one. Because the big investors that I worked so hard to all cut off our cooperation, even though they have paid compensation, it won't be good for the company.""Plus, the company's finances are deteriorating faster than I expected. Our loss of a project worth billions is making the company even worse; I don't know if I can keep thi

"You really suck at lying. Quickly tell me, what happened?"Kyla smiled faintly, a little surprised. "Was it that bad?""Yeah, to the point where I could see your insides," Edward replied, half joking, half serious."Ha...? Stop teasing me, Edward. Alright, I'll tell you."Kyla took a deep breath before speaking. "Grandma asked me to come to my cousin's engagement ceremony.""So?" asked Edward with a curious expression.Kyla let out a long breath, looking frustrated. "It's not that simple. There's something much more complicated than just attending a party. You want to know who made the investors pull out of the company?"Edward raised his eyebrows, confused. "Who was involved?""Richard," Kyla replied, her voice beginning to sound bitter."Richard? Who is he?""He comes from one of the richest families in the country, a man who desperately wanted to marry me. He's using his power and connections to pressure me. I'm sure he'll offer to help, but on the condition that I marry him. He wa

"Yes, we are divorced. I did this so Richard would stop bothering me and my family. But what happened? You just made things worse," Kyla said in a tone full of emotion. Edward stared straight ahead, his eyes showing disappointment though his voice remained calm. "Fine, if that's your decision." His answer was short, but his nonchalant tone made Kyla feel guilty. Edward refocused on driving, but this time at a higher speed than before. Kyla sat still in her seat, her mind spinning endlessly. What was really going on? Did Edward dislike her decision to divorce? Or... could he have deeper feelings for her? "No way," she muttered softly, trying to dismiss the thought. However, the image of Edward's disappointed gaze continued to haunt her. Something inside her felt strange, as if her heart refused to accept what they had just talked about. After taking Kyla home, Edward did not immediately return to his place. He went to a private apartment located in the center of the city. Sitt

Kyla scoffed, visibly annoyed. "What do you mean? First, you say he likes me, and now you're questioning if he's even a man. You're infuriating!"Edward chuckled at her reaction, his amusement clearly written across his face. "Why are you laughing? What's so funny?" Kyla demanded, her tone sharp with irritation."You," Edward replied, struggling to suppress his grin. "You're even more beautiful when you're angry."Kyla's cheeks flushed crimson. It was the first time anyone had complimented her so boldly, leaving her momentarily speechless."That's enough," she said, turning her head away, trying to hide her flustered expression. "Go. Stop distracting me. And remember, this contract marriage ends soon. I don't want any more complications involving Richard."Edward's expression turned serious. "Once this project is over, he won't dare come near you again," he assured her. "You don't have to worry."Kyla studied him briefly before exhaling in relief. "Good. That means I won't have to mar
