Chapter 116


Was it just my imagination?

Cain had been acting really strange today, of all days.

"Hmm......"

Going over some documents, I set my pen down for a moment and fell into thought.

No, it's really not just my imagination. He was definitely different from usual.

I recalled how he'd suddenly shown up, only an hour or two ago.

Hadn't he seemed tense somehow, so unlike his usual relaxed, composed manner?

Wondering if he might be unwell, I'd taken a step closer, and out of nowhere the tips of his ears had flushed bright red.

His face looked perfectly normal, though. Is it even possible for just someone's ears to flare up like that?

And that wasn't all. Where he'd normally explain a situation concisely and clearly, that time he'd rushed through it all in one breath, like someone being chased.

A Contract Marriage with My Child’s Father

A Contract Marriage with My Child’s Father

내 아이의 아빠와 계약 결혼합니다

Status: Completed Type: Author: Native Language: Korean

Or so I thought, until I found myself raising the original heroine: my own four-year-old daughter, Melody, a Saintess candidate the Temple would stop at nothing to take. To keep her hidden, I lived quietly as a village pharmacist in the south, playing the part of an unwed mother some man had walked out on. And then I was hired to treat the nephew of Duke Cain Asheln — the Dragon Duke, the most eligible bachelor in the empire, and the man who is supposed to be the story's father figure. Silver hair. Red eyes. A face that never gives anything away. "Let's marry." "Pardon?" "Didn't you say so yourself? That you wanted a contract marriage." I did need a marriage — to protect Melody, and my own life along with hers. But I never meant to ask him. A contract marriage ends in divorce. That was the deal I'd made with myself. So why does this man keep looking at my daughter as if she were already his?
