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!”

Mysterious Letters

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

One of Irene's hands was firmly held by Ronald.

The other hand was always hidden in the sleeve, clutching a letter tightly.

The person who had bumped into her just now had stuffed it into her hand.

Irene had pretended to be interested in choosing cat food along the way, but her heart had already fallen on that letter.

Who gave it to her? Was it Father who had chased after her? She knew that Father wouldn't let Ronald off so easily. But if it was Father, he could have just sent troops to surround him. Who could it be?

Irene's imagination ran wild all the way until she returned to the manor. She pulled her hand out of Ronald's hand and said, "You go back first. I want to walk alone."

"What's wrong? I saw that you were absent-minded along the way. Are you feeling unwell somewhere?"
