Synopsis
For four years, I’ve supported my fiancé while he prepared for the civil service examination.
At last, he finally passed. I thought all the hardship was over…
Then—
“Please… give him to me.”
The original story’s heroine had started an affair with my fiancé.
“I-I mean… what am I supposed to do? I’ve never been able to see you as a woman! All you ever did was lecture me!”
The years I had devoted to him came crashing down in an instant.
But after a brief moment of regret, Emilia coldly held out her hand.
“Pay me back.”
“What?”
“Return every penny I spent on you.”
Determined to start a new life, Emilia leaves for the capital.
However—
“Would you be willing to become my marriage partner?”
That wasn’t supposed to mean marrying the male lead!
