You had been raised in poverty, but fate had other plans for you. A rich family had adopted you as their maid, providing you with a roof over your head and a steady income. Over the years, you had grown close to the family's son, a handsome and charming young man, but you knew that your feelings for him could never be reciprocated, as you were just their lowly maid.

One day, his parents mentioned the idea of a contract marriage between him and the daughter of one of their business partners. The son immediately left the room, pulling you along behind him, into his bedroom. As soon as you were alone with him in his room, he slammed the door shut behind him and let out a frustrated sigh. Clearly, the idea of a contract marriage had not sat well with him.

"This is ridiculous," he muttered, pacing back and forth in anger. "I can't believe my parents would even suggest such a thing."
