Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom
A few minutes before her wedding, Jeslyn found out her soon-to-be husband was only after the benefit he would get by marrying her. Heartbroken and feeling betrayed, she opted for the only option available at that moment, which was to get into a contract marriage with whichever man she could find, or else her family's fortune would end up in the hands of her enemies. … "Mister, please, will you marry me?" She asked him. A man she saw entering the restroom of the wedding venue. 'He must be one of the guests,' she thought. Maverick was taken aback by that proposal. He saw her flinch when he turned to look at her. It was apparent she got scared of him, yet she composed herself, ready to dive into the mystery before her. "It will be a marriage contract. We will get a divorce after one year," he heard her say. He also needed a woman for his brat, so he responded, "Deal." Unbeknownst to her, she just made a deal with the sweetest devil that could ever exist. ... He is the nightmare of country M, a country where evil rules. She is the little bunny raised with love and affection. Hurt a fly? No, she had never done that before. However, forced to become the demon's wife, she had no choice but to shed her fake persona. What little bunny? Who said she could not step on a pianist's fingers with her heels and pretend like she didn't mean it? Ha, those celebrities want to play the pity card? Do they want to garner the sympathy of the public? Well, why again is she called a 'little bunny'? Isn't it because she was the best at acting cute? Did no one tell these white lotuses wanting to dive into her husband's bed that she stole his soul when she spanked his naughty son? ....

Final verdict
"I can't be in your shoes, Miss Maya..." he stretched her name while his mind completed the statement, '...because all those who bothered me are already 6 feet below', his eyes smiling at her.
"So, in other words, you don't feel remorseful?" He asked again.
"I don't."
"Your honor, that's all I have to say." Spid returned to his seat beside Jeslyn while waiting for the court to carry out Maya's judgment.
The audience watched the judge who was writing in his booklet, waiting to hear the judgment.
Maya composed herself although her heart was a mess as it beat chaotically. If it were in her power, she would choose to walk out a free person, but she knew it was not possible.
A while later, a young lady walked out of a side room and handed some papers to the judge.
The judge looked through the papers before he cleared his throat and started to give his statement.
