The ex-husband isn’t even sad about losing the MC because he cares. He’s frustrated, confused, and angry that he’s no longer in control. He’s a narcissist using manipulative behavior from beginning to end. That’s why he expected MC to be more than happy to wait for him. He intentionally chose her because he figured she would be incapable of surviving without him regardless of what he did. The emperor is using him? Sure. But that has nothing to do with the fact that he had every intention to interact with women and do whatever he wanted even without being ordered.
What is the first reaction he had upon hearing he should divorce to become associated with the princess? It’s that it is a great opportunity he can’t miss. He’s not worried about his relationship. He’s only searching for the best opportunities for himself and expects MC to just stay complacent and allow everything to happen.
MIND YOU, at what point did he actually try to have a conversation regarding feelings and expectations with MC and MEANT THAT SHIT?! The answer is he didn’t. Matter of fact, being concerned never even crossed his mind until MC started openly displaying that she was finding happiness and hope outside of the restraints he placed her in. All he can do is throw a tantrum and hope to grasp “opportunities” that will make her feel like she is going through hell to the point of returning.
He wouldn’t give a damn about her leaving if HE was the one to cut things off for good. That conversation on the balcony? That was his attempt at trying to “put her in her place” and boost himself up knowing that things were ending because he chose to do so and feeling satisfied because he was able to deeply hurt her.
Long story short, I don’t give a damn what reason a narcissist has for what they did. In the end, it’s all about their own satisfaction with the main method being to make the other person feel hurt. (╬￣皿￣)凸 (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
