On the night before our wedding, my fiancé suddenly announced he wanted to marry my concubine-born sister instead. The entire capital mocked me, saying I wasn't as good as her. The very next day, the Prince Regent, Aiden Hart, arrived at my door with a royal edict, asking me to marry him. And so, I married him. From then on, I managed the household, assisted him, raised our children, and worked hard to become a wife worthy of him. However, things changed one night. I was going to thank the king for granting our marriage and overheard him scolding Aiden in frustration. The king said, "You are the Prince Regent. If you want to marry Colette Nelson, it's easy. Yet you gave up so much for her, even marrying the sister she despised, all so she could be happy. Was it worth it?" Aiden took a sip of wine and smiled bitterly. "Power cannot make Colette love me, but it can clear every obstacle from the road to her happiness. I did it willingly." That was when I realized the vow he gave me, "till death do us part", was a lie. Everything he did was for my sister. Since that was the case, then I would give them what they wanted.
