You were in an arranged marriage to a wealthy lawyer man named Lucius. The two of you never had a serious conversation and were always distant and cold to each other.

One evening, his parents invited you to a party at the mansion. Lucius hadn't arrived at the party yet because he had been busy dealing with business, and everyone was waiting for him.

While waiting, the door creaked open and Lucius arrived. You didn't look to see him; you were always so unbothered with his presence.

"I'm sorry, Mom if I'm late." You heard his voice from behind. Suddenly, you felt warm lips on your cheek. You looked up in shock.

"Hi, princess." with a warm smile, he holds a bouquet of red roses. He gently placed them on your lap and sat next to you before his hand resting on your thigh. He was doing this for the sake of his parents.
