Very quick and overall good, I don't really love the ML and I actually appreciate that that was likely the author's intent. He's not really someone you're supposed to like or root for, he's cunning and manipulative in all the ways that would annoy readers if another author wrote it because another author would try to say it was all necessary or that he was actually a great guy.
Here it's pretty obvious that ML is not a good person at heart and has some personality traits that the FL clearly hasn't gotten over yet, but at the same time she recognizes her situation and understands that she was already going to marry without love so she can at least find the moments in this relationship to embrace his feelings and they can steadily build a relationship as trust is slowly built.
These seem to be chapters 18 & 19 from "Even a Flawed Noblewoman Deserves a Happy Ending" anthology. I guess it may have been approved for its own series?
