The Duke returned from the war without dying in battle.

Sylvia, a poor noble lady, left her house to avoid an unwanted marriage.

And the place Sylvia chose as her new home was the mansion of the Duke of War, Victor Aswan.

Rumored to be a vicious killer, he was destined to linger in the midst of battle for the next 20 years.

It’s been a month since Sylvia has been happy in the Duke’s castle while pretending to be Victor’s bride.

“You said you’re pregnant with my child?”

The duke, who had been gone for seven years, suddenly returned.

I love the level of delusion of the FL 🤣🤣 She is a riot! The grammar is very clear and the translation is great. Excited to learn more about the ML.

The low rating doesn't make sense 😪 Like... We're really at the absolute beginning and no one is horrid 🤔 Very confused.

  1. Also I would suggest is to please ignore it and give it a go!

I can’t get behind a person who’s deceitful and ungrateful. The FL freeloads, and has the audacity and thick skinless to wish doom upon those whose showed her mercy. I just can’t. I even overlook the humor of the story, because I cringe anytime the FL is mentioned

Hmmmm. I don't know what to say.

First of all, I add this story into a highly anticipated category, but sadly my expectation is too high.

I love the story, however, the flow of the story is in a veryyyy fast pace and rush.

... more>> I did not get the feeling that I was supposed to get.

It feels like a summarize on a chapter rather than a whole chapter itself. I don't know whether the novel is the way it is or the tls team just summarize the chapters like that.

The interactions between ML and FL is so fluppy but sadly, it is not elaborated further. The angsty that supposed to be there is also missing because of the simple elaboration. Maybe because this is a smut novel so the plot is focusing more on the smut scene. The smut scenes in this novel is detailed and almost up to 10 chapters, cmiiw.

The ending is also rush and yeaaaa I did not get the feeling. I did not feel happy, sad, angry or whatsoever. When I finished the book, the thought that came to my mind was like: oh? Is it the end? Realllyyyy?

Anyway, to put that aside, the translation is very good and easily understood.

However if you are looking for something that will bring you a roller coaster ride or comedy, this novel is not for you. <<less

Hilarious and fun to read. Our FL's definitely spontaneous, lively personality with high level of delusionality and well..... extra thickness of skin. lol Matched with yandere male lead and those s*xual tensions and teasing...... so far! uhh.. definitely has potential!

Hope this one gets continuation! and thank you for translator san.

This novel have potential to be an amazing romcom novel. The FL is clever and how the ML play along with her scamming is hilarious. Each chapter is short, eventhough I am currently on ch 7 there is not much to talk about. It is still the intro

At first, I really really didn't like MC.

... more>>
Spoiler

She refused working as a maid after running away from home and only wanted to live a comfortable without doing anything. She disdained high ranking noble but she wanted to live like one. How ironic.

When she lived in ML's castle, she just wanted to freeload and refused to at least take care of the castle in ML's stead even though ML already sheltered her and didn't even mind of MC spending his money. She also always hoped that ML would never return so she could have the castle for herself. She really got on my nerve.

[collapse]

Thankfully, she later changed and this story felt more bearable to read.

While I didn't like MC much, I really like ML. He was genuinely kind and sweet although he had a cold and fierce face.

Spoiler

He sheltered MC when he knew she's "pregnant" and had nowhere else to go. He also picked up an abandoned baby on the street and treated him like his own child because he remembered himself being an orphan back then. He's definitely one of my favorite ML.

[collapse]

Honestly, I couldn't find where the rest of the translation was so I continue reading this in manhua version. It's too bad because I really want to read the novel's version. <<less

I like the story! But unfortunately parts of it feel a little rushed. I would like to have a slower story build up but that is just how the story is written by the author.

I really like the dynamics between ML and FL. It's a real funny read.

Also the translator did a good job. It was easy to understand.
