It’s been 11 years since I’ve lived for others and not for me.

Since this happened, I decided to live my life freely as a single woman.

“A contract marriage?”

“The term is one year. When the time is up, I’ll give you divorce with no strings attached.”

Turns out he’s no other than the Emperor’s beloved brother, Duke Scade!

“…..What?”

“If you don’t want to do that, then we cannot get married.”

This time I’m going to live a life taking care of the things I need first!
