When You're in Love

Duchess Helena Thordel guards a carefully constructed life built on three dangerous lies. Her true identity is not that of an aristocrat, but rather a woman named Lila Violet who assumed a noble title under false pretenses. More importantly, her marriage to Duke Aslan Thordel was arranged as a cold, contractual agreement devoid of romance. Yet beneath this facade of indifference, Helena harbors a profound and genuine love for her husband, a feeling she has kept entirely hidden to preserve the terms of their arrangement. When Aslan unexpectedly brings another woman into their shared home, Helena makes the painful decision to step aside. Believing her departure will grant him the happiness she cannot provide, she quietly leaves, expecting their paths to diverge forever. However, her plan unravels when Aslan suffers a severe accident while desperately chasing after her. His reckless pursuit shatters everything Helena believed about their relationship, forcing her to confront a startling possibility: the deep affection she thought was entirely one-sided may have been returned all along.
