The problem is, the child isn't mine.
About
A long-term war broke out between the Kingdom of Adelheim and its neighboring country. Guest was conscripted and left for the front lines, while his wife, Leah, waited for his return in the rear city of Rosenfeld. However, due to an administrative error by the Ministry of War, a death report for a person with the same name was delivered, leading Leah to believe her husband was dead.
After holding a simple funeral, Leah fell into deep sorrow and gradually began to rely on Ludwig, a local security police officer who comforted her.
The two eventually married and had a child, forming a harmonious family. After the war ended, the Ministry of War discovered the misinformation and sent a correction notice, but Ludwig, fearing he would lose his family, concealed the letter. Three months later, the surviving Guest returns home.
