A handsome and gentle husband. A merchantry, which is growing based on a good reputation.
Blair is a modest and faithful wife who is not wealthy but lives a simple and honest life.

“Surprised? I didn’t die and now I’m back.”
He was her former lover, whom she had sold as a slave three years ago.
“It’s all my doing. I wanted to live in luxury…”
Fearing that her former lover, Cedric, who had risen to nobility by distinguishing himself in war, would kill her parents,
