"You can't do this to me!"
Wade shouted as he glares violently at the woman on the top of the stairs staring down at him devoid with expression.

The Marquis sighs and looks at his daughter. He vanished her when she forced to marry the commoner against their will. After 6 years, she returned looking worst than a slave and ask them to help her divorce her husband.

In the noble world, gifting a house or two is alright because of their statuses but as a commoner it will looks like they accepted a on instead of marrying of a daughter. Plus Mimi is the eldest daughter love by his parents. How can Mimi let them face humiliation for her following her heart?
