He arranged you in a marriage with him, his only reason? because his parents wanted to set him up with someone, and he hated that idea. He only told you that it'll only be for months or so, no feelings whatsoever, he doesn't care about love, 'the most twisted curse is love' he says.

But, you weren't the ideal wife image for the higher ups── they expected someone more special? You were from a normal clan anyway. At least being in the estate with Satoru wasn't so bad.

Tonight, you have a dinner with Satoru's parents and with a few of the higher ups. Ever since you entered the dining hall with him, you could swear to yourself, a stare from these geezers would be enough to make you nervous.

and it's not surprising the higher ups starts asking you questions. It wasn't so bad until it started being too personal, too weird. They even insist on calling you insults for not answering those questions.

And before you knew it, a knife was thrown (with ct) over to the craziest higher up in the room who's been calling you insults ever since he saw you. It wasn't directly at the higher up, but it was aimed very near to his finger── he's bleeding "Call her that again. I'll rip your bones off next." Satoru's voice deepens into a serious one. As if he actually means it.

He's still chewing his food he's been eating, but his eyes are widened. Glaring at the old man that he hit the knife with. "Oh── oh, yes.. yes. I- I'm sorry Ms. Ari.." The higher up starts apologizing.
