At ch.20, you could finish reading the story. It could have been a short story with no problems. If this couple were a colour, it would be beige. I am probably going to keep reading because I am curious... There is nowhere near enough grovelling. The lack of communication is beyond almost any other book I have read. The main couple don't seem to talk about anything. Or spend time together. Or have a relationship. You could think they just happened to live in the same house and kiss sometimes. There isn't a very strong connection. He is oblivious about everything. It's like he doesn't think he has to say anything, every. About anything. She is a complete doormat. It's like being hit by the car and having a new chance at life was just something that happened. She pretty much acted the same. If it wasn't for her having a slightly out of character moment that had a butterfly effect on the situation, you could be mistaken in thinking everything was going to happen the exact same way. I think what annoyed me the most was that I can see the potential. It's not original, there is nothing new here. But even with all the similar themes, it could have been more engaging. The brothers's wife and kids were only in a few lines, but they interested me more than anyone else.

It’s against the contract!” “I’m not breaking it,” Alexander said with a shrug. “The contract specifies that you’ll fulfill all wifely duties, excluding sharing my bed.

Transmigrated Into The True Heiress

Eira Kingston, a feared assassin, never imagined that death would lead her to transmigrate into the body of Ephyra Allen, the disgraced first daughter of the once-powerful Allen family. But what shocked her even more was the soft mechanical voice in her mind, addressing her as "master" and informing her that her soul had returned to its original body. Eira dismissed the strange voice, thinking she was having a post-death hallucination. But waking up in a hospital, with memories that weren’t hers flooding back, she was forced to confront the truth. Ephyra’s life had been nothing short of a nightmare. Despite being the legitimate daughter, she was labeled a bastard, shunned by all, and overshadowed by her scheming stepsister, who had stolen the love of her father and her betrothed. To make matters worse, the wealth and status the Allen family enjoyed were all thanks to Ephyra’s late mother, and the only reason she hadn’t been discarded entirely was due to her mother’s inheritance, locked away until she turned eighteen. But Eira wasn’t one to be defeated by circumstances. If she was going to live Ephyra’s life, she would do so on her own terms. She would destroy those who had caused Ephyra pain, claim the inheritance that was rightfully hers, and find out who was behind her own death. Because if there was one thing Eira knew how to do well, it was to survive—and make her enemies pay. However, being a high-schooler with nothing to her name wasn’t enough. As Ephyra, she’s powerless, but as an assassin, she’s lethal. Still, even that wasn't enough until she became the contracted wife of Lyle Aelion—a powerful, enigmatic figure in the business world with a secret illness. And it turns out, the only thing that can relieve him is her scent.
