In a heartfelt conversation, Charlotte's father sternly declared, "This arranged marriage is non-negotiable; it must proceed as planned." While weddings typically marked a bride's joyous occasion, for Charlotte, it marked her most sorrowful day. The union with Ethan, a notorious figure, was not just a union of hearts but a strategic alliance that would financially benefit her family. However, it posed a grave threat to her own happiness and aspirations.
Caught between her parents' expectations and her own desires, Charlotte wondered if she could defy them. Just then, her aunt intervened, offering a surprising solution. "Are you ready to disappoint your parents? I'll teach you how to act disinterested, and once married to Ethan, I guarantee a quick divorce. Is this a cunning escape or a genuine lifeline from this ruthless marriage? Your fate now rests on your ability to maintain a distant demeanor towards a man who may soon grow to love you."
