"Don't touch my things, stay at least 3 meters away from me ,and most importantly don't touch me," were the cold words that were thrown at Hadley on the night of her wedding. Isn't that ridiculous? Her husband was asking for something so outrageous but Hadley submitted to her fate because the man was not hers to begin with.

He is cold and dominant. He had to get married to the heiress of the Gilbert but he couldn't stand women's presence because of the accident he encountered when he was young. The marriage was bound to be a rocky one. What do you think would happen between a substitute bride and a cold CEO that can't stand women? Did you think people are going to find out about Hadley's real identity?

Une semaine avant notre cérémonie de marquage, j'ai annoncé à Ethan Dubois que je voulais rompre, lors de la fête de son ami. Tout le monde a ri. Tous savaient que, depuis six ans, mon but dans la vie était de devenir sa Luna marquée. Alors qu'il ne restait plus qu'une semaine avant la cérémonie, comment pouvais-je vouloir rompre ? Même Ethan a trouvé que je déraisonnais. « Simplement parce que je dois accompagner Sélène chez le guérisseur pour son suivi le jour de notre cérémonie, tu fais une crise pour rompre ? » « Nous sommes adultes. Peux-tu te comporter de façon plus mature ? Tu pourrais simplement reporter la cérémonie. Pourquoi insistes-tu absolument pour ce jour précis ? Je n'ai pas de temps à perdre avec tes caprices jaloux. » J'ai silencieusement hoché la tête. Oui, quelque chose devait changer. Mais ce n'était pas la date de la cérémonie. C'était lui. J'allais plutôt accepter le marquage de quelqu'un d'autre.

Dante and I have been married for three years. But he never knew my real name. We’d had countless arguments over the past three years—over the petty details of everyday life. I can no longer tolerate such a ridiculous life like a puppet today. Calliope, that’s what he called me, but it was actually my twin sister’s name. My husband may never know that the woman who married him three years ago was a substitute bride. Three years ago, my sister abandoned us and left before the wedding with her lover. To prevent the anger of the Laurent’s, my family had no choice but to let me marry Dante instead of my sister. My phone rang again and again, I finally picked it up. "Throwing another tantrum, are you? Calliope, tell me what you are capable to do if you can not even be merely a housewife?" I knew Calliope could always get her way through her sweet voice and innocent smiles. She can be an obedient and perfect wife—something I could never manage. "Dante. I’m not joking.” I didn't know if my voice sounded a little sad. "You can’t be serious—" For the first time, I heard a tremor in the man's words. He doesn't love me. He likes to be in control. When he realized that his puppet was losing control, he began to panic. It's time for this farce to end. I clenched my phone and spoke to the man on the other end in the calmest voice of my life. "Dante, let's get a divorce." But what shocked me more than hearing Dante's answer was the person who suddenly appeared in front of me. Calliope, my twin sister, who disappeared for the whole three years. “Are you crazy? Why on earth would you want a divorce? That's Dante Laurent, a billionaire heir, every woman's dream！” “Calliope? Our parents and I all thought you would never show up again. I entered this wrong marriage because of your escape. Dante... he’s not that a husband out of your dreams.” “Seraphina, put away your ridiculous niceness and compassion. I have returned this time to take back what is MINE and my place.” She lifted my hand with a sneer and removed the wedding ring from my finger.

My insanely wealthy parents always tell me that they came from a poor background. As their children, my siblings and I mustn't waste our lives away on fun and games. They set up a trial for me by requesting that I submit an application in advance for all expenses that are over 50 cents. On the day I'm supposed to take my SATs, it's raining heavily outside. Since my exam venue is located 18 miles away from home, I decide to submit an application for a 100-dollar Uber fee. But my dad slaps me in return. "We used to scale over mountains just to get to school back in the day! Don't think you get to enjoy the perks of transportation just because we have money!" After that, he empties my pockets before kicking me out of the house. I end up all sprawled on the muddy ground while feeling raindrops pelting on me relentlessly. When I finally reach the exam venue on foot, I notice the news being played on the huge screen across the street. It turns out that my parents and William Gentry, my older brother, have spent ten million dollars on a popular band to celebrate my adopted sister, Selene Gentry, earning a passing grade on her math test. Apparently, passing her math test is her trial.
