Synopsis
“Fine. Since you’re so stubborn about it, I’ll marry you. But there are conditions.”
-
We will not share a bed after marriage.
-
We will not have children.
-
There will be absolutely no physical contact, no matter what happens.
The paper I received was covered in so many conditions that it was hard to believe they were meant for two people who were supposed to get married.
Did he want us to become worse than strangers?
No, even strangers would probably have a better relationship than this…
“…Anyway, as long as I follow these conditions, I can marry you, right?”
But this wasn’t the time for me to worry about such things.
If I wanted to sever my connection with my husband from my previous life, this was the best option.
“Then… since we’re done here, I’ll be going. Sorry for disturbing your work.”
Ian Ruscliff.
My childhood friend, who had remained single until well into his forties before my regression and had even earned the nickname “the Defective Duke.”
In this life, he became my husband through a contract marriage for the sake of my revenge…
But then—
“If what you long for is a love so desperate that it feels like you can’t live without that person…”
“……”
“Then I think I can make that dream come true for you.”
His gentle words were completely different from his attitude of seeming utterly annoyed and the contract filled with clauses forbidding physical contact.
Can I focus on my revenge without being swayed by this man?
