I Became The Mother Of the Male Lead Who Lives With An Ad**terous Man

Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

​I became the mother of the male lead, who traumatized him by hanging herself because of her cheating husband.

There’s no way I wouldn’t give that cheating bastard a taste of his own medicine. So I slowly collected evidence and threw the divorce papers in his face.

“You’re nothing more than tr*sh.”

Don’t worry, son. Even if I got divorced, I’ll make sure you end up with the female lead.

I had the male and female lead meet just as they did in the story, however, they don’t want to be together and choose to cling onto me instead.

“Mom, I don’t need anyone else. Can’t we just live together happily?”

“I’ve always wanted to have a mother like you, for at least a day, Countess.”

My ex-husband, who had no interest in me in the original story, keeps following me around.

“Can’t you come back to me? I was wrong.”

“What’s broken can’t be fixed.”

“Please, I beg you.”

The father of the female lead has also become obsessed with me.

“I won’t let you go back to that bastard. I’ll make sure to keep you by my side no matter what.”

I have no intentions of ending up with a cheater…?

I read the MTL and oh my goodness I absolutely ADORE all the characters (of course excluding the villains)

The FL is well written knows how to be calm in every situation and I love her for being an amazing mother for Graham and giving love to other children too - Doloria and Atrieyu. She is an amazing strategist and even though she did kind of hold onto the original, the moment she realized the original wouldn't happen as Graham has changed, she let it go instead of forcing Doloria... more>> and Graham to be together.

The male lead? YOU WOULD LOVE SEAN! Perfect husband material out there fr. He quickly realized his feeling for Rachel and wasn't in denial or denying them - for which I love him. He isn't the cold hearted typical male lead but has his own charm who loves his daughter (MLs who love kids >>>).

Side characters like Stephan, Kattie, Rylus, Empress Dowager, the kids - Atrieyu, Doloria and Graham, Nick, Pegasus etc also had their share in the story and oh boy I love every one of them.

The villains of course got their bad ending and I was very satisfied by that. It was worthwhile to read this novel continuously for 2 days haha, absolutely recommended! <<less

The first two chapters held a similar set-up to many of the Korean in-a-novel transmigration isekais that have been released in recent years. In spite of this familiarity, the characters and dialogue are presented in an accessible manner by Shy's excellent English translation. I find myself easily invested in the main character and her adorable son because that are characters I can relate to. This is in stark contrast to many novels I have had the unfortunate experience of reading several chapters of, where the main character comes off either... more>> as spoilt or disproportionately judgmental. Here's hoping that Rachel and little Graham's story continues to provide a relatable (and logical) continuation. <<less

So far, I really like this novel. (I gave it 5 stars, dunno why it shows 3😒)

I somehow really enjoy reading about those s*umbags who cheat and stuff and then regret it later (and it is explained to the reader).

Well, anywaily the original body owner's husband is the most daring and shameless cheater I've encountered so far, and it makes me happy that this excuse of an adult will face misery soon.

Also, she's got a super adorable son, and I love how he adores his mother

It's a pretty awesome book, I hope they finish translating it into English or in the future make a manga/ anime adaptation.

I love how FL had her priority straight I love how she didn't care about petty things and moved on forward.

The ML is so super cute and the kids are clever and played a minor cupid role.

OgFL- is ML's adopted daughter and Villain's biological daughter.

OgML- is FL's son.

Both original ML and FL love each other as a family in the current novel.

The Emperor- abusive father and Main villain. He and ML are blood relatives.


ML and FL at the end get together.

I found this novel interesting. The FL looks confident and the dialog with her son is also adorable.

It is still ten chapters, but I hope it will get updated in more chapters.

My goodness. I love childcare stories, and although this one only has 3.5 chapters released, I have fallen in love with little Graham and his sass. Rachel is also wonderful.

I usually wait until a novel gets to chapter 30 to do a review. Then, here I go.

This novel is about a woman who decided to ask for a divorce from her cheater of a husband. Seems fine, but things aren't that simple. She has possessed the body of a novel MC's mother. This MC was a broken character, in the psychological sense. He ended up finding his mother's dead body after she committed su*cide after discovering the cheating. Long story short, the boy was broken, he was forgotten by... more>> the father, who made the favor of squandering off the whole family fortune, then forcing the poor MC to become a mercenary which became something like death incarnated.

Ok...

But he finds an FL that ends up helping and healing him. So all's well that ends well.

If you were not the woman that ended up inside the mother's body, obviously. But she decides that this future is not for her beloved character. Prompting her to try and file for a divorce and wanting to give him the best childhood possible.

And that's it. We follow her plans on how to get the divorce, and later on how to keep her peaceful life with the boy and a new ML that is very special.

Over. Go and read it. It's very good.

And now should be the time when I come up with some spoilers and talk about some details about the plot that I liked and all this type of stuff.

I debated a little if this spoiler section has to be made. I'm not so sure. So much happened, but there's too much that is still to come, by the looks of it. What I will do is just talk about some of the characters and backstories that I found interesting.

As such:

Spoiler

The first, and probably the more interesting part here is the fact that the FL is the adopted daughter of the archduke. But not some random girl he grabbed out in the streets. She is the daughter of the emperor. Brother of the archduke.

And it looks like the whole "The emperor is crazy and keeps making his brother's life difficult" plot point will rise. This will surely add some good drama and tension. Even more so when he uses his blood daughter as leverage against the archduke.

And, related to that, the fact that the archduke was considered the best for the throne, but was pushed out by his crazy brother and that there is a chance that the brother should not be on the throne (something added just now on the story), makes it looks like things will get complex.

But now let me talk about the fun part.

The husband cheater is a brainlet. No. It would be better to say that his brain is like a romantic delusion mess. He is the type that lives in his own delusions. In the sense that he believes that he was forced to marry who he didn't love, and is the one that suffered the most in the whole world by being denied of his real beloved. A true martyr. Someone unable to understand how much of an imbecile he is. Or how much trouble he puts himself over because he can only think with his peepee.

The cheater 2 is similar to him. But her falling back to earth was very satisfying. By the way, that type of thing is my jam. But when she finally noticed how things were wrong, and how much of a brainlet cheater face was, things got even more interesting.

There are some more things that I could talk about, but it would be mostly about the cheater's parents. Nothing would come from that, really. Reading it would be so much better that I will end this spoiler section here.

[collapse]

And that's it.

I hope that this was enough to help you decide if you should read this one or not.

If you want to see a quick-witted and smart MC putting cheaters in their place while enchanting people with her charm, this one is for you.

And if you like to see people get their comeuppance, then better yet. <<less
