“Roxane de Bastian. I can’t have anyone but Roxane.”
Max Barbier, 3rd Prince. The petty tyrant of the Barbier royal family, a grown-up devil, the worst man in society… … . That was the reputation of the man whom Anais Brienne had to succeed in arranging marriages for! The woman he had in mind was the flower of Barbier society, Marquis Bastian’s daughter Roxane!
“I, I can’t do it.”
“Can’t do it? Are you prepared to face the consequences?”
“What? C-consequences?”
“I will crush all of Miss Anais’s achievements. Business, love, marriage. I will become the fierce storm that makes none of it smooth. That will be me.”
Backed by the royal decree of the Queen Dowager, who ordered the youngest grandchild’s marriage to be arranged by any means necessary, Anais Brienne is forcibly tasked with matchmaking the third prince!

“You seem really excited. Are you happy?”
It was the final stage. Once the commission was completed, an enormous success fee awaited, and she was supposed to be introduced to a good man to maintain her title.
“That won’t do. Not like this.”
“W-what are you talking about…?”
Until Max Barbier, the little tyrant of the Barbier royal family, said this.
“The commission is void.”
“What?”
“Everything you’ve done so far has been for nothing.”
What kind of nonsense is this crazy prince spouting?
