"After the Divorce, He Tore off My Masks" is a highly popular new romance novel at present. It's still being updated. The story goes like this: The male protagonist, Wendell Joule, is cold and wealthy, while the female protagonist, Valerie Harold, is gentle and tenacious. The story begins with the bankruptcy of Valerie's family. Her parents couldn't bear the heavy burden and jumped off the building, leaving her alone to face the mess. Due to the friendship between their grandfathers, she entered into a marriage with Wendell. However, after four years, this marriage came to an end when Wendell resolutely proposed a divorce, which triggered a series of dramatic twists and turns.
In the story of Chapter 5, Valerie dressed up carefully and arrived at the city hall early to wait for the divorce procedures. When Wendell arrived, he was amazed by her beauty at first, but soon that amazement was replaced by inexplicable displeasure. The handling process was quick, yet there was a one-month cooling-off period for divorce. Just then, Odelia showed up, and her slightly swollen belly announced her special relationship with Wendell. Odelia's feigned weakness and Wendell's detached coldness made jealousy surge in Valerie's heart. She dealt with it cleverly and asked to renegotiate the property division. She gave up the huge amount of cash and the mansion and instead asked for the seemingly insignificant Joule Law Firm. This request greatly surprised Wendell and made him view Valerie in a new light.
One accident followed another. Valerie fainted due to a cold, fever and lack of strength. Wendell immediately put aside his coldness and held her tightly in his arms. The fresh scent of peppermint lingered around her. Although Valerie tried to break free, Wendell firmly took her to the hospital. In the hospital, the doctor's reproach made the scene a bit awkward, and Valerie's witty response shocked Wendell even more about her change. At this time, Cornell came to visit with a bouquet of golden sunflowers. He enthusiastically expressed his admiration for Valerie, saying that she was the girl of his dreams. His appearance broke the delicate atmosphere in the ward and formed a sharp contrast with Wendell. Cornell gave the flowers to Valerie and carefully arranged them. These scenes made Wendell extremely jealous, and he couldn't help warning Valerie that she still needed to pay attention to her status during the cooling-off period. Valerie didn't back down and retorted by mentioning Odelia's pregnancy, which made Wendell angry but left him speechless. He had no choice but to leave coldly.
Cornell's laughter echoed in the ward. He was delighted that Valerie could easily irritate Wendell. However, Valerie was full of bitterness in her heart. After all, Wendell was the man she had loved deeply for four years. The current situation was unexpected for her. She forced herself to cheer up and asked Cornell for her things, trying to sort out her chaotic thoughts.
During the development of these plots, the emotional conflicts among the characters have been constantly escalating. Valerie, who used to be a wife who quietly dedicated herself and was gentle and lovely, has gradually shown an independent, strong and intelligent side under the impact of the divorce. Wendell has also begun to re-recognize this wife whom he once overlooked during this process, and complex emotional fluctuations have gradually emerged in his heart. And Odelia's existence is like a stone thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples and making the originally complicated emotional relationship even more mysterious. Cornell's timely appearance added another touch of color to the story. His relationship with Valerie also aroused Wendell's suspicion and jealousy, making the story full of suspense and tension.
