SPMB - Chapter 120

My Body Has Been Possessed By Someone

The Valentino mansion was quiet.

The atmosphere was literally like thin ice.

After Josephine Elester, who had been commanding the mansion, was kicked out, Sylvien gathered all his employees. And he entrusted the task to the butler.

"Please investigate in detail the unfair treatment my wife has received. You won't want to miss a single thing."

"I understand, Your Excellency."

"This matter will be investigated together with my knight."

The butler's eyes widened as if he was surprised at those words. Sylvien gestured to the knight standing behind him.

"If the report investigated by the knight is different from the butler's report, the butler will have to take responsibility accordingly."

The butler's back felt cold.

"Do you understand?"

This was a warning and a threat. It was a strict order to thoroughly investigate what happened to Kanna without leaving out a single thing. 

"I'll keep that in mind."

Afterward, Kanna exchanged letters with Sylvien and proceeded with the divorce. A few days later, the Supreme Court approved the divorce. Soon after, the Emperor also approved the divorce. Now the last remaining gateway is the great temple.

"The biggest problem remains. When nobles get married, they go through the process of swearing to God. They submit a document to the main shrine swearing to God that they will love each other forever until they die.

Therefore, couples who wanted a divorce had to go directly to the Great Temple Shrine and hold a marriage annulment ceremony.

However, the marriage ceremony was problematic.

At the wedding ceremony, men had to wear tuxedos and women had to wear wedding dresses!

The idea was to look back on your original intention before breaking the oath you made to God.

'Actually, Joo-hwa has never tried on a wedding dress.'

What kind of tragedy is this, wearing a wedding dress when you get divorced that you couldn't even wear when you got married?

"Kanna. Can I come in for a moment?"

Then she heard Chloe's voice.

"No, I must leave for the great temple early tomorrow morning..." 

However, the door was opened without permission. Chloe came striding in.

"I said no, but I guess you didn't hear me."

"I heard correctly."

"Then why did you come in?"

"I need to stop your foolish choices. Divorce, think again."

Chloe shot back coldly.

"Do you think it would be easy to live as a divorced woman in the Empire? Everyone will point at you. It's not just you. They will curse the entire Addis family."

She knew it. Kanna thought Chloe would come in to say this.

“So?"

"Hold on and live."

"..."

"Most women are like you, living their whole lives in disrepair with their husbands. Everyone lives like that, so why are you the only one behaving so strangely?" 

She doesn't know how many days she has been hearing this. Kanna was now at her limit.

"Why don't you pay attention to Isabelle instead of paying attention to me? You are both physically and mentally exhausted from the long period of probation."

The corners of Chloe's mouth trembled at those words.

How can Kanna say something like that? 

Who's Isabelle on her probation?

'Shameless girl!'

If Kanna is that shameless, she probably wants to get a divorce.

If she divorces, Khanna will get Addis' castle back. They will once again be living in the same mansion as one family!

"It seems like you have no shame."

Chloe, unable to hold back, spat out harsh words.

"How can you be so selfish, forgetting the grace that raised you and trying to insult the Addis family!"

"Is it so? Am I selfish?"

"That's right! Divorce is a shame that wilI forever remain in the history of the family! You know that well... !"

"Then lock me in the closet. About two days."

Kanna smiled and pointed to a corner of the room. It was a large closet.

"That's how you raised a disobedient child, right?" 

Chloe bit her lip. He glared at Kanna with cold, frozen eyes.

"I knew this day would come someday"

Chloe spits out each word as if chewing them.

"A lowly girl who grew up without a mother. I knew that someday You would bring shame to the Addis family. You piece of filth!"

Bang! 

At that moment, the door flashed open with a loud noise.

"... Are you here?"

Orsini walked in quickly. His expression was clearly one of displeasure.

"Mother. I didn't know you were there."

For a moment, a chill ran down Chloe's spine.

It's a lie. Is it possible that the ghost-like Orsini did not know of her existence?

"Orsini. Why are you here...."

"I'm sure you were just talking about something that wasn't very nutritious."

Orsini interrupted. It was an icy tone.

"Don't waste your energy on useless things and go out." 

That line roughly hit Chloe on the back of the head.

"Come on."

Chloe gritted her teeth and walked away hurriedly. Great misery swept over her like a storm.

She knew her son well. Very well, she understands.

'Orsini too.'

Following Kalen, even Orsini is being possessed and manipulated by that devilish girl, Kanna!

'Kanna is dividing Addis.'

Until that kid came, Addis Mansion was perfect. It was truly a harmonious family. But now, it is completely broken.

Kanna was smiling brightly and tearing Addis into pieces!

***

"Why did you come?"

 "Do you think someone came because they wanted to come?" 

Orsini sarcastically sat down on the sofa. Kanna got really annoyed at that sight.

'Damn, there's Orsini on the sofa.'

She needs to replace it with a new sofa right away.

"I will accompany you as a witness to your marriage annulment ceremony."

"You?"

The marriage ceremony required at least one witness, such as a family member or relative. Originally, Kalen was supposed to accompany her, but Orsini suddenly came up?

"The plan has changed. Kalen has a very important guest coming."

"..."

"Are you sad?"

Orsini sarcastically said.

"It must have been fun to control Kalen, but it's a shame I can't do that."

Kanna stared at him. Now that she think about it, that guy realized that she still hated Kalen.

'It's difficult.'

Of course, she will throw Kalen away sooner or later, but at least not now.

Kanna thought for a moment and then smiled.

"Is that possible, Orsini?"

For a moment, Orsini couldn't believe his ears. It was a voice like sugar.

"You and Kallen are my precious younger siblings." 

Kanna smiled warmly like the spring sunlight. It was a smile that Orsini had never witnessed before.

"A lot has happened between us, but we are still family. We were born from the same bloodline."

"..."

"In the end, we have to forgive each other and love each other."

There was silence. Kanna's heart pounded in anticipation as she waited for a response. Will Orsini be fooled?

That guy is so simple, hasn't he been fooled many times? Maybe he could be deceived.

'But if you are fooled by this, you are truly an asshole to the world.'

At that time, Orsini jumped up. He came quickly and stood in front of her. He just walked in without warning, but perhaps because of his large size, he was extremely threatening.

"Don't play tricks on me like that."

It also failed. Because it was somewhat expected, Kanna responded indifferently.

"A trick?"

"I'm not like Kalen. I have no intention of being gently deceived."

Do it. There is no way a creature with a head could be fooled.

'I don't think it's up to the head.'

The excitement cooled down. The smile disappears like smoke from Kanna's face. 

"You forgive me and love me? Damn it. You hate me and you say things like that all the time."

Damn it, Orsini cursed softly again. He seemed very upset by the line she had uttered.

But again, thorns bristled.

"What do you think if he finds out you're playing with him?"

Kanna chuckled. Is he really threatening her?

"Well. Are you going to kick me out of the house?" 

If she thinks about it, it wasn't a bad idea to end it that way.

Kanna must have accumulated a certain amount of money, and divorce is just around the corner. It was a good idea to use the pretext of deceiving Kalen to branch out in Addis.

"I like it. As you know, I am a person who hates Addis."

The high point is really not far away now. She can have a new beginning. 

When she thought about that, her heart fluttered.

"So, tell me anytime, Orsini. I will disappear before your eyes."

***

Two days later, Kanna departed for the Great Temple with Orsini. When they arrived, it was a more closed space than expected.

The starkly white building and tall walls wrapped around the temple like iron armor. Even before entering the main shrine, she had to perform a simple ceremony.

"Please tell me the purpose of visiting the Great Shrine."

 "I have come to annul my marriage with His Excellency Duke Sylvienne Valentino."

"Swear to God that there is no lie in what you say."

"I swear."

Then she pricked her finger with a silver needle. She dropped a drop of flowing blood onto the silver tray holding the priest.

'Why are you making the entrance examination so difficult?' 

If this is not done, outsiders will not be able to enter the main shrine. Even if they were members of the royal family, there were no exceptions.

While Kanna was stopping the bleeding in her finger with a handkerchief, she suddenly looked up at the temple.

The magnificent building, which seemed to reach all the way to the sky, was like a God in itself.

This is the Great Temple Hall.

It was the realm of priests, the world tree, and divine spirits.

'This is it.'

A place to finalize her divorce.
