Jasmine had an accident with her one-sided love, Duke Aion. The straightforward man, who didn’t bat an eye to her before, who is consistently ignorant of her, for some reason, was now catching feelings…
“Didn’t you like me? Was that a lie?”
“Why would I lie about that?”
“I know. You’re not that kind of person.”
She was at that phase where she decided her damned love, but instead it turned for the worse.
A enchanting love story between a noble couple that is at each other’s throats but in harmony during the night.
However, there's one minor issue - Richard can be rather frustrating at times, I just wish he'd take the plunge and propose <facepalm>. As for now, that's where we stand, with more chapters yet to come <coming_soon>.
The Crown Prince initially orchestrated their encounter to foster a connection, as their union would be advantageous for his plans. However, he hadn't foreseen the intimate connection that developed. Now, complications arise due to his newfound addiction and his desire to make her his own.
In a twist, ML proposes to her after publicly rejecting her just a month prior, which coincides with the Crown Prince's agenda. This misunderstanding stems from FL feeling used and wanting clarity. Despite his mixed emotions – liking her deeply but unsure of love – he still wishes to marry her.
She struggles with their unclear relationship status, asking simply, "What are we?" Meanwhile, he's grappling with his feelings, admitting he likes her but isn't certain about love. In summary:
ML initially rejected her due to his unrequited feelings, but now, with his crush engaged, he's pining. His cousin suggests a retreat to help them get to know each other better, unaware of the setup. As they grow closer, ML starts considering marriage, but the truth about the arrangement comes out, causing tension. FL confronts him about love, and he admits he likes her a lot but needs more time to fully understand his feelings.
While he's not toxic or manipulative, his honesty can be hurtful, leaving both parties in a confusing and emotionally charged situation.
