“Please marry me.”

Yieum was suddenly faced with a forced marriage due to pressure from her family, so she proposed to Seong Jihoon, the chairman of her school.

“I thought about it, and if you marry me, it’ll benefit you too. See?”

Should she disguise this shamelessness as confidence?

“Is that a threat?”

“No, it’s a plea.”

At the word “plea,” Jihoon glanced subtly at Yieum.

Yieum was clasping both hands tightly, looking as though she was truly desperate.

A fate in which she would be forced into marriage against her will.

The person who knew that wretched fate better than anyone was Seong Jihoon.
