# WebtoonLib — This Villainess Wants a Divorce! #97 ## Series - title: This Villainess Wants a Divorce! - slug: this-villainess-wants-a-divorce-8e3e29 ## Chapter - number: 97 - release_date: 2025-05-08 ### Summary The latest chapter focuses on the emotional fallout of the succession crisis, with Prince Caesar depicted as heartbroken and vulnerable, having fallen into a deep depression over his seemingly futile efforts to secure the throne. This portrayal has elicited widespread reader sympathy, though a minority of commenters have criticized his despair as weakness. The central plot continues to be a source of major frustration for the readership, who overwhelmingly decry the amnesiac Oscar's claim as a "forced," "stupid," and illogical contrivance. Many argue that the "crown prince ring" is invalid, as the current Emperor Dietrich won the throne through conquest decades prior, and Oscar was not even born when the ring was supposedly bestowed. Readers express a desire for Oscar to regain his memories and escape the control of the manipulative Marquis Gerald Pariam, but resent his current role as an unwitting usurper with an unearned claim. Despite the political turmoil, the bond between Caesar and Carnelia remains a stable, supportive element. The chapter concludes on a widely discussed and distracting note, with final panels showing Caesar's despair in a way that readers found both sensual and "hot," creating a strange juxtaposition of pain and allure. - summary_source: graph_aggregator - summary_verification: unverified ## Spoiler - level: auto ### Safe teaser The latest chapter focuses on the emotional fallout of the succession crisis, with Prince Caesar depicted as heartbroken and vulnerable, having fallen into a deep depression over his seemingly futile efforts to secure the throne. ### Spoiler summary The latest chapter focuses on the emotional fallout of the succession crisis, with Prince Caesar depicted as heartbroken and vulnerable, having fallen into a deep depression over his seemingly futile efforts to secure the throne.
