The Final Month I Spend with My Husband in a White Marriage

After her engagement is broken off, Cecilia finds herself in a difficult financial situation. She accepts a proposal from Alphonse, a powerful duke and knight commander, to enter a white marriage—a marriage in name only. For nearly a year, the two barely interact while Alphonse is away on military duties. Cecilia settles into a peaceful life, enjoying her hobbies and living quietly in his mansion. Everything changes when Alphonse returns home earlier than expected with only one month left before their contract expires. A simple late-night meal shared together becomes the first step toward closing the distance between them. As the deadline of their agreement approaches, both begin questioning whether they truly want their marriage to end. The story is a light, fluffy romance focused on everyday interactions, food, mutual awkwardness, and two lonely people slowly falling in love.
