Synopsis
One day, while pretending to be an unmarried country mother who had been abandoned by a man in order to protect a child I picked up off the street, I suddenly realized something.
This was the world of a childcare novel.
And I was the heroine’s mother—the one who dies early in the story!
‘Please, can’t the mom survive too?’
I mean, even if it’s a childcare novel, I’m still a person!
So I made a deal with the cold-blooded duke who becomes the heroine’s father in the original story…
“Let’s get married.”
“Excuse me?”
“I don’t understand your surprise. Didn’t you say yourself that you wanted a contract marriage?”
How could I not be surprised?
I never heard that marriage would be part of the deal…!
“I’ll cherish both you and the child. So, Viola.”
“……”
“Marry me.”
Did I overdo it while pretending to be a single mother?
It seems my contract husband’s misunderstanding has grown far too deep.
“Do you still not miss that man? Melody’s biological father, I mean.”
How can I miss a man who doesn’t even exist?
But I couldn’t reveal that the child wasn’t actually my daughter.
“Your husband is me. Not that bastard.”
Cain’s eyes burned fiercely with jealousy as he looked at me.
Weren’t we… in a contract marriage?
