I’ll Become a Lord Instead of a Duchess
공작 부인 대신 영주님이 되겠습니다
Summary
Roxana, a spirit mage, once fell deeply in love with Asterion, the continent’s most famous man — a swordmaster with a brilliant mind and breathtaking looks.
For nine long years, she loved him.
Three years before marriage, six years after — even if it was only a one-sided, contract marriage, her feelings were real.
But the closer she tried to get, the colder he became.
His indifference and harshness left deep scars on her heart.
Then one day, he asked for a divorce.
Roxana quietly accepted and decided to live peacefully in the small territory she got as alimony — determined to heal and move on.
Everything was fine… until she sent him one simple letter asking for a little help as a lord.
And suddenly—her ex-husband showed up in person!
“Um, excuse me? I don’t remember asking you to come.”
Now she’s busy trying to manage her new land and doesn’t have time for this man who keeps hanging around. She tries to ignore him… but somehow, he looks regretful? He helps her whenever she’s in danger, and even a tiny scratch on her hand makes him teary-eyed.“Hey, ex-husband… what on earth is going on with you?”
