Summary
The three-year contract marriage came to an end.
After faking her death and getting a clean divorce, she returned to her original life. She had already eliminated all the political enemies and put the necessary systems in place, so there was no longer any need for a queen in name only.
Now, all she had left to do was pray for the kingdom’s peace and go back to dedicating her life to magical research.
She thought it would be a happy ending.
“Is it alright for a professor to wake up this late?”
“Why are you here?!”
But for some reason, her ex-husband moved in next door.
And what about the kingdom?
“Do you know how much mana it takes for spatial transportation? Don’t you feel bad for the royal court mages?”
“I tripled their allowance, and they seemed fine with it.”
Damn it!
The man keeps hanging around her, acting as familiar as if they had gone back to the old days. She tried pushing him away several times, thinking he would leave once he was satisfied. Yet the way he looks at her feels anything but ordinary.
“Theo.”
“Yeah?”
“Why are you going this far?”
“Who knows? Del, you already know the answer.”
This man claims he simply needs her.
And on top of that, strange incidents filled with the scent of conspiracy keep appearing, making him impossible to ignore.
Will she ever be able to return to her peaceful everyday life?
