The Duke's Substitute Bride is a Maid

As a maid of the royal family, Irene was sent to learn etiquette by Princess Marla to take her place in marriage. Her partner in a marriage was the brave and fierce General Ronald, who had just been granted the title of a duke! Rumor has it that Ronald was cruel, bloodthirsty, and did not care about women. To even seduce or betray him was to court death. Irene shivered in her wedding gown. She did not know how many days she would survive being around him. Ronald asked, "Wifey, why are you shivering?" Irene responded fearfully, "I… am a little cold..." The tall man smiled and pulled her into his embrace, and their body temperatures rose. One day, the substitute marriage came to light, and thus her marriage with the duke was void. Everyone thought that whatever she had to face next was terrible. However, the duke held her face and said, “Regardless of whether you’re a princess or maid, if you were to marry, it can only be me!”

During this period of time, Gerry wasn't supervising Irene, and Ronald was not by her side. This gave Irene a chance to slip away.

Irene sat on the swing in the garden and looked up at the night sky. Suddenly, she felt a warm embrace around her. Irene realized that she seemed to be more and more familiar with Ronald's scent.

"Why are you still in the garden so late at night? Aren't you cold?"

Ronald's hot breath sprayed into Irene's ears. If it were in the past, Irene would definitely be moved, but now, Irene couldn't have any romantic thoughts. She only looked at the moon that looked like a jade plate. "I'm not cold. The moon is really bright."

It was already autumn. Seeing that Irene was only wearing a nightgown, Ronald picked her up and said, "Well, it means that tomorrow is a good day. It's very late. Go back and sleep."
