Description
On the day I witnessed my husband’s affair, I possessed the manic ex-wife of the male lead. “Rebecca, I would have told you not to touch my body without permission.” I divorced him at once with one condition I stay in the mansion next door for the time being for the sake of my life. By the way… ” I regret the moment I divorced you. And my folly that I knew nothing about until your heart left me. Rebecca, I want to win your heart back.” “Your Highness, you said you would live next door for the time being, but you didn’t ask me to regret it?” “You’ve been struggling, because of me…” With those quiet words, Rebecca let go of their clasped hands. “…How about you, Cedric?” At that moment, instead of my departure, all I had to do was stay with Cedric… *** There was only an unexpected sense of emptiness. ‘Rebecca is gone. And with another man.’ The image of man and woman holding each other in their arms kept disturbing my mind. Soon, a thick tendon bulged above the back of my clenched hand. ‘Rebecca, you can’t leave me yet.’ Even if she did, it would be this way now. At least for the time she promises to stay in this castle. I had to give myself the slightest chance to catch her. “Answer me, really, did you try to run away with another man? You did it to punish me because you can put up with it.”

My Thoughts on I Ended Up Living Up Next Door With My Ex-Husband
"I Ended Up Living Up Next Door With My Ex-Husband" is a novel that certainly grabbed my attention with its quirky premise. It's a blend of comedy, fantasy, and romance, and I went in hoping for a lighthearted and entertaining read. Overall, I found it to be an enjoyable experience, though it wasn't without its flaws.
First Impressions
The initial chapters drew me in with the promise of a transmigration story where the main character, Rebecca, finds herself married to a handsome, but seemingly indifferent, half-demon duke. The comedic tone was evident early on, and I appreciated the focus on dialogue over lengthy internal monologues. The idea of an arranged marriage turned enemies-to-lovers, complicated by a divorce and subsequent close proximity, definitely piqued my interest.
What Works Well
I was particularly drawn to the male lead, Cedric's, gradual descent into possessiveness. Watching him grapple with regret and jealousy as Rebecca moved on with her life was genuinely entertaining. The author did a great job of portraying his increasing obsession in a way that felt both comedic and, at times, endearing. The writing style itself is clear and easy to follow, which made it simple to get lost in the story and connect with the characters' emotions. The world-building, with its European-inspired setting and demonic elements, added a unique flavor to the romance. I also found the side characters, especially Rebecca's maid, to be a source of much-needed comic relief. The maid's aggressive loyalty and unique perspective as a demon provided a refreshing contrast to the main characters.
Areas of Concern
While I enjoyed the lightheartedness of the story, I did find the main plot to be somewhat lacking in substance, at least in the earlier chapters. The focus seemed to be more on Cedric's antics and Rebecca's attempts to secure her financial independence than on any overarching conflict. Furthermore, I felt that some plot points were introduced but not fully utilized. A particular instance of this, which I found frustrating, was when Rebecca knew a villain's weakness but didn't use that knowledge to her advantage.
