Leticia whose been living her life quietly in the outskirts of the Kingdom of Otis, met a bloodied man lying on her lawn in the middle of the night.

Deciding to save the man whose identity is still unknown, Leticia did the bare minimum aid and determined to let him go when he gets better.

'Well... I mean, I can't afford to help and sheltered an unknown man when I want to get married, right?!'

But what's this?

Why are you not leaving? And why are you so good at doing household chores?! And you know how to cook too?!

You're making me hesitate to let you go!

The rumored notorious Duke Hugh Naville decided to stay quiet and enjoy the life he has with Leticia until knights came and begged him to go back as his marriage candidates lined up to meet him, plotted for political purposes of the Queen.

Thinking that the Queen shouldn't have his way with his life, Duke Hugh saw Leticia as the best option.

"Leticia... Will you become my lover?"

"Huh? Why would I do that?!"

The response from Leticia made Duke Hugh smile. He became sure that she's the only answer to his crisis.

"I want you to become my fake lover..."

-
But what will happen when suddenly Leticia had a glimpsed of her future and one of those is her life hanging in a thread?

'I should leave before I can, right?'

The Duke's Fraudulent Lover

"Director! It's been a long time!" Leticia came for a hug that Hugh didn't have time to stop.

She gave the Director a tight hug. A hug that shows how much she was so glad to see him.

Hugh couldn't help but flinch when he heard how someone other than him and Anton could blatantly call Leticia with her nickname "Leti".

"What a coincidence this is! I'm so glad to see you!" The Director patted Leticia's back as they hugged.

Hugh was about to break them when Leticia was faster to pull away as she said something that she recalled.

"Did you get my letter?" Leticia asked as soon as she stepped back and let him go.

The director who was confused and flustered about what was happening looked back and forth at Hugh who had been piercing at him with a glare and Leticia who had an exciting look.

"Letter? What do you mean? Did you send me a letter here?"
