“I’m planning to file a paternity lawsuit.”

The client who appeared before family law attorney Mael, Yves Valois.

An arrogant and rude billionaire, exuding the typical ennui of the wealthy.

“Why did you specifically request me?”

“Because I thought you’d be suitable. Professionally and personally.”

A man who proposes a fake relationship, dangling rewards like the whispers of a devil.

His cold eyes held nothing within.

Mael didn’t want to get entangled with this man in any way.

However.

“Brother, I… I think I killed… Philippe.”

To protect her younger sister, Mael takes Yves’ hand.

A fall always happens in an instant.

“What do I need to do? Be the lover you mentioned before?”

“That chance has passed. Now, you’ll have to become my family.”

Marriage.

A pile of lies built on a foundation completely devoid of affection.

“The term is until the paternity lawsuit is over and I get acknowledged. Two years.”

The result of all of that was this marriage.

Whether it was fortune or misfortune, no one could know.

“Ennui” is a French word adopted into English, meaning a feeling of listlessness, boredom, or dissatisfaction that comes from a lack of excitement or purpose. It’s often associated with a sense of weary indifference, especially among those who are wealthy or privileged and lack meaningful challenges in life.
