there was no rape but it was heavy physical and mental abuse. and one chapter 100 where they divorce the uke was so drained that he gave into the divorce (chapter 148 is where the seme realizes how grave of a mistake he made) the abuse stopped around chapter 100 once the uke was finally free, and he was very scared of the seme. so it wasn't just one apology because by the time the seme apologized the uke was in a much better mental state and the seme apologizes numerous times. and the seme realized that he was actually in love sometime between 100-148

so i read the webnovel and i don't know yet if this will follow the webnovels timeline exactly but if i does i just wanted to warn you guys that the MC will continue to get abused for 100+ chapters and the ML doesn't realizes his mistake until about chapter 148 and the webnovel in whole is 246 chapters. So if seeing the abuse for that long will make you uncomfortable i would probably advise against reading this, but of course it's your choice.
