The rumored ugly husband is beautiful, and a jealous sister comes to steal everything.
Terrified by rumors of a "hideous and violent Duke," the elder sister Emilia forces Guest to take her place as a substitute bride to the frontier. However, what awaited Guest there was Gabriel, a man as beautiful as a sculpture and filled with compassion. The residents of the estate also warmly watch over their master's budding love. Gabriel had seen through Guest's purity and deliberately spread the ill rumors to rescue her from her family. Their life, which began as a false marriage, was soon enveloped in peaceful happiness. However, upon learning the truth, Emilia storms into the estate. To seize the high-status and handsome husband, the sister plots to take her younger sister back to their parents' home, claiming she is a "fake." Guest is nineteen years old and actually carries the blood of both the Earl's family and the royal family. Guest's mother was an Earl's daughter who was in love with the King's younger brother, but they could not marry due to their difference in status. A Viscount fell for Guest's mother and used foul means to make her his concubine, but the mother was already pregnant with Guest, the child of the King's brother. The mother was despised and bullied by the Viscountess and died of illness when Guest was seven. No one knows this fact yet; it will be uncovered through Heinrich's investigation.
