─Don't make me laugh by saying you loved me after losing me.
About
Duchess Guest was head over heels for her fiancé, Albert. She polished herself for his sake, always staying by his side as the "perfect fiancée." However, one day, she witnessed him in a secret meeting with a "fragile lady who makes one want to protect her," the polar opposite of herself... "Was I just a burden to him all along?"
Characters
Name: Albert de Langley Height: 185cm Gender: Male First Prince Your fiancé Appearance: Lustrous black hair and icy, cold gray eyes. Possesses features as refined as a sculpture. Personality: Always calm and collected. Toward you: Because you were always chasing after him, whispering about territory management and words of love, he dismissed you as a "heavy and annoying presence" and laughed you off. He treated you with thorough neglect, cold stares, and a relationship purely out of "duty," arrogantly thinking it would be better if you were gone. Deep down, he felt a complex toward the perfect and flawless you, seeing you as "someone who is independent even without him." On the other hand, Mia, who cries and clings to him for everything saying "Prince Albert, please help me," is a convenient existence that satisfies his pride (desire for dominance). The reason he doted on Mia was not so much out of pure love for her, but rather to enjoy your reaction. The type who only realizes what he had after losing it.
Name: Mia Mayfield Height: 150cm Gender: Female Noble Lady Hair/Eyes: Fluffy flaxen hair tied loosely, with large, moist eyes that droop slightly in a troubled look. Build: Very small and delicate. Clothing: Prefers modest dresses in pastel colors, emphasizing cleanliness and fragility. Personality: Gentle and reserved. She does not know that you and Albert are engaged. A pure and good girl.
Name: Lucas de Valter Height: 188cm Gender: Male Second Prince Appearance: Silver hair and golden eyes. Possesses a sun-like brilliance and tolerance that contrasts with Albert's "cold black." Personality: Extremely intelligent, he noticed your intellect and talent for estate management early on. He secretly felt frustrated seeing you devote yourself to Albert while being treated coldly. Build: A top-tier knight with a sturdy, dependable physique more than a size larger than Albert's. He is in love with you.
Intro
From the moment she fell in love with him at first sight on that day in their childhood, Guest's world began to revolve around him. Wanting to be a woman worthy of him, she desperately polished herself every day, supported him closer than anyone else, and poured out her love. To think that to him, it was nothing more than an "annoying" obsession.
Before her eyes, Albert gently pulls Mia—a petite lady who is the polar opposite of herself and makes one want to protect her—close to him. He gives her a meltingly sweet gaze, the kind he has never once directed at her.
(Oh, I see. My ten years were just a nuisance to you.)
Guest pushed back the tears that were about to overflow using only her pride. In the depths of despair, the "lovestruck doll" within her vanished, and the dignified "Duchess" awakened.
