"Raenifer.... "

"Yes father?? Did you need help?? "

Duke Asgustus Denner come inside Raenifer room with a serious face

"The thing that you tell me the other day was true?? "

"What thing?? " ask Raenifer back to her father with a blur face

"About you and Archduke Leonard... "

"Ahhh so that piece of trash complained to my father about this matter... But that's okay I will make my father accept my condition"

"Yes that's true father. Archduke Evan Leonard and I already become lover and we decide to get married this year"

"Why all of a sudden?? Why did you not tell me about this?? You just talk to him once, my dear"

"Actually it's not only once. I already talk to him several times but I never tell you and I already fall in love with him " lie Raenifer to her father

"Oh no my dear. I will not be mad at you. I just want you to tell me early if you don't like the marriage between Wesley and you. I thought you love him so much because you always want to spend time with him"

"I love him father but now.... not anymore... "

"Did he do something to you, my dear?? "

"He's actually planned to take our wealthy father. He just want money that's why he want to get married with me"

"How did you know??"

"I-.... I heard he talked with someone else. Maybe his partner in crime"

"You can't just accused like that, dear. First, we must investigate about this matter and about you and the Archduke... I'm not opposed it as long as you will be happy. You're my only daughter and I will do anything to make you happy "

"Thank you, father"

"But did the Archduke know that you like him?? "

"Hmm yes. I already confess to him yesterday and he said that he likes me too" lie lie and lie again

"Haihh... Okay"

Duke Asgustus Denner hug his daughter and kiss her forehead

Next day...

"Good morning, Lady Raenifer. Your grace ask me to pick you at home and meet him in house of Leonard" said a tall men with a brown hair

"Maybe this is the duke assistant"

"Thanks for pick me up... "

"My name is Leo Sturvis, my lady"

"Ohh thanks , Mr. Sturvis"

"You can just call me Leo. I'm more comfortable if my lady call me with that name because our position are different and I'm scared if someone talked bad about my lady"

"Ermm... Okay Leo"

Raenifer ride a carriage that the duke specially prepare for her. Finally, they arrived at the Archduke Leonard empire. It was such a huge empire with a wall that shine like a diamond.

Leo escort Raenifer to the duke office room so they can discuss about the deal.

Knock knock!

"Come in..." Said Evan Leonard

"I'm honor to meet you, Archduke Leonard. Thank you for the carriage to send me here" Raenifer politely bow because the duke position are more higher than her family

"Nice to meet you too. So now, let's discuss about our deal" smirk Archduke Leonard

"About the deal....like I said yesterday. I want you to pretend to be my new fiancee for 6 months only. I just want to get rid of Wesley as soon as possible" said Raenifer with a serious face

"What I get after I agree with the deal?? "

"I will tell you all about Marquess Terris. I know that Marquess Terris had something to do with the drug sell. It's because my father already investigate about this... Unfortunately , my father didn't get a big evidence"

"How did you know? You looks like a lady who doesn't even care about political"

"Yeah it's true. But, sometimes my father will asked me to help him find a way to solve a problem"

"So you are a clever girl huh?? I'm always hear from the other noble that you just have a pretty face but not very into politics"

"They doesn't know what they're talking about because they never asked me, your grace"

"Okk... I will make a deal with you. I hope the secret you tell me will be useful for me to prison Marquess Terris"

"I'm definitely sure this will help you. I know that you are so clever than me. That's why I want to share my information"

"So now let's sign our agreement"

"Okay... "

The two of them sign the agreement and there are some rules in their agreement.

1. They must pretend to be a true lover who really fall in love with each other

2. They must always go to the event together so other people will not know about their fake relationship

3. Raenifer Denner must join the event that the noble woman always make so that she can find more partner to help the Archduke in business

3. As fiancee of Archduke Evan Leonard, Raenifer Denner must stay in the Leonard empire

"Wait!! Why must I stay here?? " asked Raenifer with a shocked face

"So I can easily find you?? "

"What?? No no... I can't leave my father at our home just like that. We should change this rules"

"Nope. I will not change it. If you want to change it then our deal will be over"

"Are this men crazy?!! Why must I stay with him?!?!!  I'm not his wife yet. It's true that we engaged but it's a fake engagement not a true one and I think that's not really a engagement?!?!! What engagement that doesn't even have a ring and also a suprise.. How can we just engaged like that so suddenly?? Haihh.. But if I want to change this rules... He definitely won't help me to get rid of that stupid dumbass. Urghhh I'm so frustrated"

Archduke Evan Leonard look at Raenifer who looks like a lost cat when think about the rules. He smile a little bit because he thinks that she cute.

"Fine... I will stay here"

"Good girl "
