   I recommend this book. It's a marriage of convenience that blossoms into love, told from the female lead's perspective, while the male lead's unrequited love blossoms into reality. The male lead is a complete scheming, ghostly, and manipulative guy. He gets so angry when he learns the female lead's first love has returned that he gets into a car accident. He's a total shrew, completely obsessed with his wife. If you like stories about male leads with dark undertones, this is a good read. The male lead is a total drama queen.

    The male lead is a ruthless villain, yet he's completely smitten with the female lead. If she slightly ignores him, he'll stand by the door, his eyes red, pleading, "Don't you want me anymore... Waaah..." He melts her heart. ● When the female lead is kidnapped by enemies, he single-handedly rescues her, returning with red eyes to hug her, saying, "You scared me to death... Don't ever leave my sight again!" His possessive yet tearful demeanor is absolutely captivating! ● When a male supporting character shows interest in the female lead, he immediately bursts into tears, tugging at her sleeve, "Do you like him more...? What did I do wrong? Tell me and I'll change..." He turns a typical "chasing-back-him-him-in-a-lifetime" scenario into a tearful, adorable display.
