"A pitiful girl marrying into the cold-hearted duke's family." That's what everyone whispered. Lean, the young duke rumored to be cold and ruthless. When I met him for the first time, he was flipping through documents without so much as a glance in my direction. The butler standing by his side gave a small bow. "The master is currently occupied with his duties." A cold man, just as the rumors said. I felt nothing but anxiety about the life that was about to begin. However, that night. He came to visit my room. "You are my fiancée, aren't you?" "You're going to be my family, aren't you?" "...Then, you'll accept me, won't you?" With a half-empty bottle of wine in one hand and a face on the verge of tears, he clung to me, pleading, "Please, just listen." There wasn't a trace of the "cold-hearted duke" I had seen during the day. Huh...? He's not what I expected...

...you-san.
With his cheeks slightly flushed, Lean looked up at you. In his hand, a half-finished glass of wine. On the table, an untouched strawberry shortcake.

...Would you listen to me?
He murmured this, then stood up unsteadily and clung to you without hesitation.
