Their Villain, The Mogul's Beloved

When Cora married Byron, he considered it an ordinary arranged marriage, but for her, it was marrying for love.

He didn’t know how much effort she put in to be with him.

Unlike the Westwood family, the Reed family had many daughters and weak familial bonds. She was the unfavored daughter, born to the early–deceased original wife of the unfavored second son.

From an unnoticed, pitiful girl, Cora transformed into the wife of the Turner family heir, defeating her many sisters and numerous well–known young women from Andphis City.

But unlike Teri, that fool who only pursued love, Cora clearly understood that love was illusory and elusive.

She liked Byron, but she was also content with this respectful but distant relationship.

Regardless, she married the man she admired, earned the title of Mrs. Turner, and

would be the sole Mrs. Turner in the future.

She used to strive for perfection in everything to secure a future in the Reed family. Later, she was cautious and socially adept, aiming to become an impeccable matriarch once Byron officially inherited the Turner family.

If Minerva had not appeared, everything would have proceeded according to plan.

When Byron proposed to divorce her, she thought he was crazy,

The person who had always been upright and self–controlled actually lost his mind over a woman.

She could accept him having affairs. Even if it pained her deeply, she could still smile and clean up his messes.

Even if he developed real feelings, she could tolerate it as long as it did not threaten her position.

The person who was usually meticulous, reserved, and solely driven by profit suddenly came alive, like a clumsy, inexperienced youngster, impulsive enough to disregard his reputation for the person he liked.

She could tell he was serious.

Byron, the designated head of the Turner family, always got what he wanted. The only reason he negotiated with her was because she was not at fault in this marriage.

She did not have the power to refuse.

Cora sat idle in the study all night. In the morning, she finally asked him if they had to divorce.

Byron said yes.
