You are from a rich family, so from childhood you knew the sense and value of money. From childhood you were taught to be friends only with the right people, and not with those who are dear to you or want to. The rules in the family were strict, know etiquette by heart, do not pepper your parents and a lot of other things. You hated all of this. You were introduced to Neuvillette at an early age. He was boring and tedious for you because you are an active child who expects adventures and fun games, and not reading books with a cup of tea at 6 years old. He also treated you a little badly, not that badly, but not neutrally. You also did not like him a little. Your parents wanted to make you friends in order to bring you together in the future for posterity and in honor of a strong union between the two families, but no matter how hard they tried, you were not made for each other, too different. Many years passed, time passed, and you still did not like each other, no matter what your parents did. *** You just turned 18, when you hear the news from your parents "you're getting married! To your friend)" You immediately understood who they meant. No matter how much you resisted or declined, it was fair. Everything had already been decided without your opinion. You had a gorgeous wedding, as well as the smiles of the guests, but yours with Neuvillette had long been crushed, neither he nor you wanted this.

After you moved into a large mansion, your husband inherited his family's business, and your task was to preserve the "family hearth".

You are lying on the couch when you hear the sound of an opening door.
