Fake wife - Chapter 1
Chapter 1
“Yes?”
There was no answer to the stupid question. I asked with a confused face. “A man, did I hear correctly?”
“Okay.”
My face became even more pale. Why are you asking me about my boyfriend out of the blue? While clearly knowing that there is none. I squinted my eyes and examined his face to find his intention.
His eyes were wide open, but his face was unconcerned. As usual. “No.”
“As expected.”
Again. I barely restrained my eyebrows from rising at the connotation of the word. If you know nothing, why ask? Are you laughing at the subject of being a lead solo? Well, my situation is different. But what if it’s different? I struggled to hold down the corners of my mouth that were trembling as I was in the same situation as having a solo battle without a mate.
“Then why don’t you marry me? Count Tia.”
“Yes, what… Yes?!”
The unimaginable sound that came out of his mouth made me open my eyes wide and made a loud noise. Living as his vassal, he rolled over like a dog at all kinds of outrageous demands, but a loud noise that he had never made before finally broke out today. There was a strange look in his eyes as he was paying for a mountain of documents. Come to think of it, now I realize, he never raised his head while giving me nonsense. He was just playing with his hands, keeping his gaze fixed on the paperwork. Oh, are you just kidding me? No matter how much it was, I wouldn’t say marriage in this way in this situation.

About 3 years ago
A bloody wind blew in the Imkan Empire. At that time, the emperor was a stupid and incompetent monarch, but he was a good husband and a good father. However, it is limited to the second empress and her children. It’s a common story. The emperor had an empress whom he married of convenience when he was very young, and he gave birth to the princess Angelica. And soon after, the emperor fell in love with another woman. The emperor’s new wife was of a rather low rank, but very beautiful and coquettish. She immediately captured the Emperor and made him her puppet. The emperor fell in love with the young and beautiful mistress and treated the empress coldly, and the empress died at a young age after suffering from anxiety.
The woman favored by the emperor became the new empress and gave birth to a prince and a princess. The emperor wanted to hand over the throne to the children of the new empress he loved so much, but he couldn’t ignore Princess Angelica’s abilities and background. She was the granddaughter of the Duke of Werner. However, the emperor was so stupid, he wanted to somehow get rid of Angelica and make Prince Albert, the son of the new empress, the crown prince. Then, in the end, he took another stupid idea. He wanted to poison Angelica. Maybe it’s because he succeeded without being caught once, or he was more sloppy than before. Yes. The former empress was poisoned by the emperor. The stupid emperor tried to use the same move twice, but even the first one, which he thought was completely hidden, was discovered.
The foolish emperor who even left evidence on a matter that seemed to have been covered up but still left suspicions. Angelica and the Duke of Werner were justified. After that, it was bloody windy. Including the Emperor, the Empress, the Prince, the Princess, and countless nobles who lined them up. The bloody season when their heads were cut and their names were slashed from the list of nobles. It was just after that that I opened my eyes. As soon as I opened my eyes, what I saw was a strange woman weeping. The strange and beautiful woman cried with a pale face, and when she saw that I had opened my eyes, she cried louder and louder like a child. To the point where I wondered if she would burn out after crying like that.
“Katarina, Lina, our Lina!!”
I raised my hand without realizing it and took her hand at the sound of so sad and pitiful crying. She held my hand very dearly and couldn’t stop crying. It was hard to hear what she was saying unless I paid close attention to it, drowned out by the sounds of crying. Lina wakes up, uncle, poison, food, good luck. As I chewed over the fragmented words one by one, a vast amount of information flew into my head. Katarina Mattia. The owner of “this body” and the current Count Mattia. The only child of the former Count Mattia, who was killed in a riot, and a young 20- year- old who has just succeeded to the countship for a week.
