I Taught You with Restraint
by Gliese
I was a fan of the original female protagonist.
Frustrated with the unsatisfying ending, I got hit by the reincarnation truck and ended up in the body of the fleeting ex-wife of the regretful male lead, ‘Ian Cloud.’
But this guy is even more stubborn and cold-hearted than I imagined.
“Is that okay?”
“I don’t need it.”
“Mind your own business.”
Is this going to be another frustrating and terrible ending like the original?
So I decided.
Before the female protagonist returns, I’m going to reform this hopeless regretful man!
“Duke, even if it’s not like that, try speaking more kindly.”
“Women like men who are gentle and considerate.”
“The trend now is for men to be thoughtful, remember that.”
I turned the robot-like male lead into a perfect keychain for the female lead.
And finally, on the day they reunited, I handed him the divorce papers.
“Right, before I go, please stamp here.”
“What is this?”
“What do you think?
It’s the divorce papers.”
“Divorce… papers?”
Rip.
The divorce papers were cruelly torn apart in his hands.
Wait, why did you rip them…?
“Don’t tell me you’ve been planning to leave me all this time?”
“…Pardon?”
“Didn’t you teach me that true love means becoming the only one for each other?”
But that’s supposed to be about you and the female lead…
“Eloise.”
He pressed a lingering kiss into my palm.
His languid, azure eyes fixed on me.
“I belong solely to you.”
“….”
“So, you must also become mine.”
As I looked into his obsessive gaze, I thought,
Something feels very wrong.
No, more importantly, I never taught him about obsession!
