(Flash marriage + long-planned romance + overlooked real heiress + everyday life)
A clear-headed, independent real heiress who wants to escape her family × an aloof, restrained, powerful older man. Beneath his commanding exterior, he’s actually a considerate, attentive homebody who can cook.
One banquet, one remark made in jest after long careful planning.
Two people with their own agendas got married.
She thought he didn’t love her. He thought he was merely her stepping stone to freedom.
Neither expected two people with minds sharper than sieves to fall into a pure, sincere love.
He used tenderness to draw her into opening her heart.
