This scenario was more common and was usually called "sadomasochistic love" or "sad love". The female lead may have played tricks to marry the male lead because she wanted to control the male lead or because her feelings for the male lead were deeper than true love. However, this situation may cause the male protagonist to feel cheated and not valued, which will eventually lead to the breakdown of the relationship. In the novel, this plot may describe the female protagonist investing a lot of emotion and energy in the male protagonist, but the male protagonist has no real feelings for her. This may make the reader feel lost and sad. However, the plot of a novel could be very colorful. The readers could imagine and create it according to their own preferences.
