Standard Contract Guidelines for a Fake Marriage

Synopsis

The Royal Academy’s top student and valedictorian.

She was the idol of the graduate student community, so brilliant that professors fought tooth and nail to have her as their pupil.

An unparalleled genius who earned straight A++ grades despite her difficult family circumstances.

“Please let me repay your kindness!”

Adelia seeks out the benefactor who supported her tuition when she had no money to her name.

“Junior, you don’t have to pay me back.”

But the benefactor has already passed away, leaving only his son behind…!

“At this rate, you wouldn’t be able to repay me even after my children have all grown up.”

Loarston Ipsel, Adelia’s senior from the academy and the most handsome man in the Kingdom of Rigan, suddenly makes Adelia an unexpected proposal.

“If you really feel that indebted to me, there is one thing I would like you to help me with.”

“What is it? I’ll work as hard as I can, even if it’s cleaning!”

“Become my ‘temporary wife,’ Junior.”

Loarston flashed a charming smile at the bewildered Adelia.

“Miss Whitton, you’re a genius among geniuses, aren’t you?”

“Well, I wouldn’t exactly call myself a genius…”

“You’re a genius like you. Surely you can pretend to be a duchess, can’t you?”

But…

“You shouldn’t run away this much, Junior. What kind of relationship do you think we have?”

“A married relationship…”

“That’s right. Make sure you never forget it.”

With a smile capable of enchanting anyone, Loarston kissed the back of Adelia’s hand.

“Then have a good day, my wife. I’ll see you tonight.”

“Y-Yes. Honey…”

Is this really okay?!

Even if they are pretending to be married to deceive everyone, is it really necessary to go this far?!
