After the release, an overwhelming pressure filled his loosened body. It felt like being a fish skewered on a spear. It was as if that grotesque penis had pierced beyond his inner walls, reaching down to his throat. "Ha, ah!" Tears he had held back burst forth with that single thrust. Maël hurriedly raised his arms to cover his eyes. His eyes were hot, and he quickly rubbed them dry. Even though he was naked, taking Yves' penis and climaxing, he didn't want to show himself crying. Of course, Yves…-

Pants, along with underwear, were tossed under the bed. I wished I couldn't see anything at all. But Yves looked at everything straight on. His gaze, so languid it felt lazy, held a strange sensation. As I curled my legs, Yves pressed down on Maël's knee. Our eyes met under the dawn light. Yves murmured softly, "Doesn't seem impossible." Each word felt like it clung wetly to my body. Goosebumps rose in a way I'd never experienced before. Unconsciously gripping the sheets, he tugged at the only…-

"Start with a kiss. If you can't do it, quit." Yet Yves tilted his head and said that to Maël. "Can I say no?" "Of course." The answer came without a moment's hesitation. Before Maël could be surprised by the firmness, Yves touched the champagne glass again. "I helped your sister, not you." It meant Maël didn't need to offer himself. Even if he didn't ask Manon to pretend to be gay, Yves would somehow extract the price of this huge debt from her. The possibility of rejection offered…-

"You're in a hurry." Yves scanned the room as he walked, grabbing a bottle of champagne. It was vintage, made in the year Philippe was born, placed on every tea table in the hotel to celebrate the wedding. He placed a glass on the table where Maël was sitting. Pop. The champagne opened without any cheer. Yves poured the golden liquid into two flute glasses and looked at Maël, as if proposing a toast. "There's nothing to celebrate." "Your sister's liberation?" What Maël wanted for Manon…-

"You're going to help?" "Why do you think I'm here?" To catch a weakness, right? As those words lingered in my mouth, the man lifted his chin. "Just make it so no one knows if they're dead, killed, or disappeared. There are plenty of ways. Who would imagine a pregnant woman pushed her husband to death on their wedding day?" The chilling words flowed without hesitation. It hinted at the man's past. He was different from Felix, Philippe, or Charles. Yves wasn't above the law like them. The…-

"What did you say?" I couldn't be sure if I heard correctly. But Manon kept repeating the same words over and over without stopping. "I pushed Philippe, I mean, I pushed him..." "Hold on. Manon. Just, please, be quiet for a moment." Gripping her trembling shoulders, Maël turned his head. Even the sound of the coffee machine had stopped. Yves, holding only a white coffee cup with his fingers, walked over leisurely. He pulled out a chair and sat at the now spotless table. Seeing him, Manon…-

"Maël! What kind of nonsense are you spouting now?" The response came not from Diane but from Charles. As he tried to reach out again, Maël turned his body completely. "I can't stay at 377 any longer. For various reasons, I have no trust in the company anymore. I'm sorry to say this here." "Oh, I don't mind the place, but isn't this a bit urgent? What about my proposal then?" With Charles listening, Diane asked without specifying. It was about the law office proposal Diane had made just…-

"Give me the pen." Maël blinked in confusion before reacting a beat too late. "Are you crazy?" At his angry words, Manon finally turned her head. Her gaze was so firm it felt like his heart was sinking. He thought she’d realized by now. Every marriage is ultimately a contract, and Manon was on the verge of a particularly nasty one. Yet she was still going through with it. "Are you scared? Is that why? It’s really not a big deal. Breaking off an engagement sounds huge, but people forget…-

“What’s all that about?” “A gift. Remember when I said I wished you could get married too? Since I wouldn’t have a real family once I left, His Highness the Hereditary Prince remembered and said that!” “So... His Highness the Grand Duke won’t use his veto on the law anymore?” “Yep! It’s a gift!” No matter how influential a family is in a country, changing a nation’s law as a wedding gift for the eldest son seemed absurd. ‘Is the law a joke?’ I was more…-

The contract was filled with signatures on every page, as if guaranteeing the listed terms. It was no different from the final prenuptial agreement Maël had sent last. Except for one thing. The name of the contractor was written above Manon's childishly round signature. Maël bit his lip and opened his phone. He checked the attachments in the last email he sent to the Grand Duke's legal team. The contract appeared on the screen. After fumbling a few times with trembling hands, Maël finally…-
