Veronica Hazlet, married for comfort. All daughters of noble families should be married immediately after performing the ceremony of maturity.
The marriage request letter came from the Duke's family. A letter that shocked the Armeta empire. Just this time throughout Armeta's long history, the Marquis's family on the outskirts of the city received a cover letter from the Duke's family. Usually, Duke-ranked nobles will marry imperial princesses. Because the rank of Duke was equivalent to that of the emperor's son.
The family of Marquis Hazlet could not possibly refuse. This is an opportunity that doesn't come twice. They pushed their daughter into the marriage. Veronica Hazlet, second child and only daughter of Marquis Hazlet, Ruben Hazlet.
The price offered is no joke. Even a fool cannot escape. Who does not know Duke Ivan Wilhem the owner of the business empire of the capital Armeta. Duke Wilhem was the owner of payment centers throughout the Armeta empire.
All the money turnover in Armeta is controlled by the hereditary Duke Wilhem.
Duke Ivan Wilhem became the head of the family at a very young age, nineteen years old, one year after his maturity ceremony.
Armeta has an age rule for maturity. Women are seventeen years old and men are eighteen.
Duke Wilhem's parents died in a train accident. The late Duke and Duchess pair died on the spot. Ivan therefore had to replace his father as head of the family at a young age.
There are many rumors about the personality of Duke Ivan Wilhem. She's a party star. High-class female lovers. There is no day without a woman in his arms.
Marquis Hazlet did not care, as long as Veronica could give birth to an heir for Duke Wilhem's family, any irregularities could be suppressed.
The application letter has been received and responded to with the date of the wedding. Both families have celebrated their wedding day.
The social world of the upper class was shaken by the news of Duke Ivan Wilhem's marriage that there seemed to be no sign of marital interest. Every day the woman in his hands is always changing. Some are supportive and some are sneering. Pity the woman who will be Duchess later.
The wedding day has arrived. Veronica stared at her reflection in the glass with a flat face. Getting married to her is an obligation. Being a wife and then giving birth to children. That's his job. Another feeling he ignored.
Daughters of nobility must be ready to marry anyone who comes with a suitable dowry. They have no right to vote and to vote. Only boys will inherit the family title. That's what Veronica's older brother, Verdian Hazlet, will get.
"Born a boy, your position will be safe." That was Ruben Hazlet's last message to his son who was going to Duke Wilhem's house.
The carriage with the coat of arms of Duke Wilhem had been waiting in front of the gate. It's time Veronica said goodbye to her family. Her mother cried and they hugged each other before Veronica was dropped by Verdian.
"Send a letter there immediately." Verdian's Order.
Veronica then nodded and got into the carriage. After the door is closed, the wheel moves. Through the window of the carriage Veronica looked at the house she had lived in for approximately nineteen years. There are joy and sorrow.
He lifted his back. To banish all thoughts that exist. She's not for sale, she's on a noble errand as an adult woman.
The atmosphere of the capital was very different from that of Marquis Hazlet. Lots of crowds everywhere.
Veronica gets to the biggest house in the capital Armeta. The gate is made of black iron whose price banged on the human heart. When the door was opened, there was a magnificent expanse of flower gardens. In the center there is a fountain with a statue of gods wrapped around each other.
Right at the end of the garden, a large house seemed to stand arrogantly. Luxurious and shiny. Veronica dumbfounded. He could not number the windows so many times.
Brain's empty. She came to be the mistress in that mansion. Veronica's body shuddered suddenly. His calmness disappeared instantly. Hands shaking. Veronica pias's face.
The car door opened.
Veronica gets off the train with Roffel's help. White wedding dress fluttering in the wind. His silver hair was sparkling in the sunlight.
"Please follow me."
Veronica's steps immediately followed Roffel. After walking through a long hallway and many twists, they finally reached a hall.
Decorations simple. The wedding will only be done privately without inviting family or anyone else. Only for the two of them, loyal workers and representatives of the great temple of Armeta.
The atmosphere is very tense to be said as a wedding ceremony. Veronica sat quietly waiting for her future husband.
The tension was further heightened as more than three jasms of Duke Wilhen had yet to come. Veronica looked at the people with her eyes. There was panic and whispers. Roffel the head floater immediately got up and exited the room.
Soon after, the person who was waiting for. The cast is this show. Duke Ivan Wilhem's. Raising makeshift clothes is not like Veronica.
She had only met her future husband for the first time. Veronica looked at the bland man who was walking gontai down the altar.
Veronica cursed inwardly. He often heard rumors about Duke Ivan Wilhem who lived just for fun.
"I'm sorry I forgot that today is our wedding day." Ivan said with a big smile.
This was their first meeting.
Veronica's lips twitched looking at the unscrupulous man in front of her.
"Let's just get started." Ivan's Word.
Soon the wedding ceremony was held. The two brides made a promise to the god Armeta. The event finishes faster as many stages are passed from the smallest to the largest.
"Welcome my wife. You are so beautiful as it turns out. Since we're married, you should spend the night with me, right?" Seringai appeared in Ivan's lips.
"Having children is the responsibility of the couple. Giving birth is my job. So I won't refuse." Veronica replied in a flat voice. He was fed up with Ivan's shameless face.
Hearing this, Ivan's face changed.. It was the woman's face responding to him in a cold voice. He who had unwavering pride was now shattered.
After the wedding was over Veronica entered the Duke's house where Ivan lived. He went to the bedroom first, took a shower, changed clothes, sat on the bed, and waited for her. But no matter how long he waited for the bedroom door not to open, he did not think it would happen. There was only silence left from the darkness of the night.
The night was getting late and Veronica lost her patience, she opened the door of the room and went outside.
In front of the bedroom, where Veronica thought there would be no one there, there was a knight and a servant, who were at a loss as to what to do.
"Where's Duke?"
Lady Veronica #2...
