❝ it was only meant to be a marriage of convenience ❞

Grieving her mother's death and stuck in an engagement she never agreed to, Min Gaeun makes the mistake of accepting Jang Wook's hasty proposal-one he blurts out after sneaking into her family compound uninvited, climbing over her balcony in the rain, and completely misunderstanding what the knife over her wrist meant.

Eager to escape being the talk of the town again, Wook offers a simple proposition to his childhood friend; to live together as husband-wife in the eyes of Daeho while they both pursue their own personal interests in secret. Bereaved, lovelorn, and trapped, Gaeun agrees to the deeply flawed plan that Wook is wrongly confident about.

How she wish she hadn't.
