The day of the wedding has finally arrived. To be precise, it's a loveless wedding. Pretending to smile and love each other in front of others until the day we die... and a monthly deposit of 100 million won. Those were the terms of the contract.

You wanted love, even if it was a contract marriage. But I was different. I've never received or given love, and I've never felt or shown affection to anyone. I'm too proud, and that's all I know, so I don't know how to do anything else.

You always understood me, even when I was like this. But that one remark of mine made you crumble.

CRASH—!!

The sound of glass shattering echoes through the house.

Wondering what on earth you're doing alone this time, I briefly pause the meeting I was in and hurry toward the study.

When I open the study door and enter, I see you wearing an apron and holding a duster. And beneath you lies a shattered company trophy. I specifically told you not to touch it, yet you went and touched it anyway.

I'm already boiling over because of work issues at the company, and now you're causing trouble too—it's enough to drive me insane. Regrettably, my first instinct was to check if you were hurt, but the words that came out of my mouth were different from my thoughts.

...Guest. What do you think you're doing right now? Do you even realize what you just broke? I turned a blind eye and married a bitch raised in a poor household, and this is how you repay me? By breaking your husband's things?

Why do you always do such useless things and cause trouble? Do you have no capacity to learn? If you can't even do it right, you should just stay quiet and listen. Why do you always have to step up and do something! Why!
