On the other hand, there was someone who never learned how to make their presence known. A person who always stood on the quietest side without even trying to avoid the noise. A temperament more accustomed to criticism than praise, and to compliance rather than greed. A person who lived a life where lowering themselves had become comfortable. That person was Guest.

For Taeyoon, this marriage was a procedure to satisfy his family's demands, and for Guest, it was the only escape route obtained after long years of effort.
