Datte, Anata ga Uwaki wo Shita kara

Liche believed she had everything figured out. Her engagement to Harkin, the eldest son of the Marquis of Hachette, was a match that seemed flawless on paper—and even more so in person. With his striking looks, sharp intellect, and unfailing courtesy toward both her and her family, he was the envy of every noble maiden in their circle. Though their union was arranged as a political alliance, Liche was confident that mutual respect and kindness would be enough to forge a warm and lasting household together. That rosy certainty shattered in a single, quiet afternoon. Hidden among the hedges of the garden, Liche froze at the sight of her fiancé, Harkin, locked in a tender embrace with none other than her own younger sister, Lilia. Frail and ailing since childhood, Lilia had always been the one sheltered and protected—never the one Liche expected to betray her. In that stolen moment of intimacy, Liche’s carefully constructed future collapsed around her. Now, with her engagement hanging by a thread and her trust broken by the two people closest to her, she must navigate a treacherous path of heartbreak, betrayal, and the arduous fight to reclaim her own destiny.
