Summary
[ Become Maxim von Waldeck’s wife in name only. ]
That was the simple mission assigned to Daisy, a secret agent of the revolutionary army.
Maxim von Waldeck, a mercenary born out of wedlock, known as the royal family’s hunting dog.
He was being thrown into the line of fire as cannon fodder, and his chances of surviving the war were slim. No woman was willing to step into the role of becoming a widow.
The plan was straightforward: act as his wife in name during the war, then escape before the kingdom was conquered after their defeat.
If she could pull that off, she’d walk away with a hefty sum and retire comfortably.
“I’ll be back soon, wife.”
Yes, it was nice meeting you. Rest in peace.
“We’ll consummate the marriage when I return.”
You dream big, don’t ya? May you pass on peacefully.
She assumed it was just his hopeful dream of a blissful future.
…But then.
[ Maxim von Waldeck Achieves an Unprecedented Great Victory! ]
Things went completely opposite of what she had expected.
[ National Hero Grand Duke Waldeck! What do you most look forward to upon your return home? ]
[ Holding my beloved wife, Daisy, in my arms. ]
No way, that can’t be right.
This has to be a misprint or something, she thought.
But Maxim von Waldeck was a man who took his promises as seriously as his life.
“I’m back, my wife.”
And with those words, he suddenly pulled her into his arms.
Daisy’s eyes darted around in confusion at his unexpected behavior.
“Shall we head to the bedroom now?”
“Pardon?”
He whispered softly in her ear, a lazy smile painted on his lips.
“Forgive me, but I’m in a bit of a hurry.”
He was already heavy and hot, the front of his trousers straining as if they were about to burst.
‘Is this bastard some sort of perverted lunatic?’
Could Daisy safely divorce him before her cover was blown?

Male Lead: Maxim von Waldeck (26)
A mercenary feared across the continent for his cruelty, with expertise in firearms and torture. He is the illegitimate son of a princess and secretly a direct descendant to the royal family. After being kidnapped as a child and watching his parents be killed by the revolutionary army, he is fueled by his desire for revenge and becomes the royal family’s loyal dog. Despite being sent to battle as cannon fodder, he miraculously returned as a war hero without a single scratch, achieving a great victory.
Though cold and ruthless, he is known for being extremely devoted to his wife. To prevent Daisy from divorcing him, he resorts to using every trick in the book. Charm, threats, even seduction. He’s a smooth talker with no apparent weaknesses, and his mysterious side makes it hard to figure out what he’s really thinking.
Female Lead: Daisy von Waldeck (23)
Code name: “Easy.” The top-class ace assassin of “Clean,” a secret organization of the revolutionary army. Though she is quick-witted and calm under pressure, she has a quirky and innocent side that doesn’t quite fit her ruthless profession. She has a soft spot for cute, beautiful, and fragile things. Whether that’s babies, animals, flowers, or even Maxim. She’s the type of character who’s tough with the strong, but gentle with the weak.
After a near-death experience on a mission, she is saved and baptized by Sister Sophia, which led her to repentance. She vows never to kill again and decides to retire, but the leader of the revolutionary army holds her weaknesses against her and assigns her one final mission.
That mission is to marry a man destined to die in the war and then quietly disappear as a widow. However, when her “husband” Maxim von Waldeck returns, she realizes he is the most dangerous man she’s ever faced.
Recommended For: Readers who want to see a battle of wits between a female lead determined to get a clean divorce and a big payout, versus a male lead who refuses to let her go, all within a “marriage battle” dynamic.
Quote: Who slaughters an entire enemy army just because they want to have s*x?

Hi Kimberly! I understand where you're coming from! However, "Battle Divorce!" has its own unique plot and atmosphere. We'd say it's more of a light-hearted romantic comedy, but it still has a slightly darker twist. We hope you enjoy reading~

Why he is kinda…
I'm B_B
I know right
Villainess No.121
I love this ml. Not in rl though (maybe?)
Villainess No.121
I'm sure he would comeup with a line as simple as "My wife wanted to see you so i brought her here." Lmfao
Villainess No.121
Aww Adorable
Mimi
Max… what does he have planned?
Villainess No.121
The chapter is so short but thanks for updating
Villainess No.121
He orchestrated everything to get Izzy.
I'm B_B
He surely did
Shima Enaga
Ooh! It's funny…just a minute….let me just climb up on this here boat. K, let's gooooo!!
Villainess No.121
Well she has a point. He could slaughter her and give her pieces as food to his dogs if he wanted to and no one would be able to stop him and stand up against him.
Shima Enaga
Hmm, exactly who sent him to a battlefield he was meant to die on? If he is the Kings dog, was it the King? Does he want to ally with the rebels? He's such a mystery.
Shima Enaga
Ahh, "…in this life…" That explains a lot.
Shima Enaga
Ok, so this his second go round at life, yes? That's what I'm thinking anyway. He knows her from the previous life and they were something then, or some such sort of thing. I'm just guessing, who knows, probably completely wrong…..reading on.
Shima Enaga
Blunt and honest, he's quite refreshing actually.
Pavy~~
I knew it
Pavy~~
That's suspicious
Pavy~~
"this life"^=^
Shima Enaga
Is she some bada$s or not? I dislike when authors try to sell us some expert assassin, never back down, street wise survivor type chick, then write her as the manipulated, caught, tool.
Mimi
I wonder how long she’ll be able to hold him at bay lol – I’m betting the next 3-6 chapters before snu snu occurs.

Too short
