One day, her ex-fiance, Aethelred, suddenly appeared in front of her. He had changed from a snot-nosed young noble to a tall, lanky young man. “...Fiance? What are you talking about? It’s already been 6 years since we broke off our engagement.” “What… do you mean? When did we break off our engagement?” Unaware of his broken engagement, her ex-fiance held a letter ordering for his assassination. The problem is that the sender of the letter is none other than Duke Edgar, the man who will soon be Valentina’s husband. The even bigger problem is that this foxy ex-fiance has no intention of giving her up… *** “How about this question? After you two completed the secret wedding vows that day… did you spend an official first night in front of witnesses?” Her mind went blank. But Valentina knew better than anyone what he was trying to corner her with. After she gritted her teeth and slapped his face, Aethelred whispered in a voice full of mockery. “Ah, really… So you two haven’t taken the proper procedures to become a legitimate couple.” His pitch-black eyes, blazing with uncontrolled, unfamiliar excitement and heat, slowly made it hard to breathe. “...Choose me and I’ll make you the Emperor of the continent.” Tags: #Romance #RomanceFantasy #WesternSetting #AdultWebtoon #18+ #Revenge/Betrayal #Angst #Royal/Noble #Misunderstanding #Possessiveness/Jealousy #LoveTriangleRomance #ContractRelationship #OneSidedLove #FirstLove #LoveHate #YoungerMan #ObsessiveMan #SlyMan #KindMan #SeductiveMan #SkilledMan #EnergeticMan #HurtMan #StraightfowardMan #IndifferentWoman #ColdWoman #HurtWoman #RegretfulWoman
