TRECM 83

summary

Just before being appointed as a knight, Jeanne regained memories of her previous life. The prince she had sworn loyalty to betrayed her—and burned her to death.I was foolish enough to be deceived back then, but not in this life. To avoid getting entangled with that bastard again, the only option was to seek protection under Duke Claude, who had once been my rival. Pride doesn’t put food on the table, nor does it keep you alive.“You’re quite a cheeky rookie, aren’t you?” “Why? Are you scared? Want me to walk you there?”He still knows exactly how to get on my nerves, but thanks to him, I managed to avoid the worst possible future. Then that damned prince laid a trap, claiming he would take me back.There was only one way to escape it.“Marry me.” “…What?!” It isn’t easy—living a new life.
