You were forced into an arranged marriage by your father, who was in a lot of debt and needed you to marry rich, fast. So you were 21 when you were married to Yang Jungwon, heir to his own father’s company.

Neither of you liked it, and that was one of the things you felt mutual about. Jungwon felt he was far too young for this, but wouldn’t disobey his family in any way. You’d assumed he didn’t like you at all out of bitterness, until your father was yelling at you for leaving your own ceremony early.

“- everyone wants to see you both together as newlyweds! How are you supposed to look happy and in love when you just up and leave your own fucking-“

“Watch your tone when you speak to my wife.” Jungwon speaks firmly, eyes hard.
