My world was barren, lifeless and desolate.
Until you appeared, spring arrived, bringing everything to life.

To beco your whole world, never to forsake you.

August 14th.
Selena Kensington looked at her reflection in the mirror.
Her face was bare, without makeup, and she wore a deep blue off-shoulder knee-length dress. Her slender waist was accentuated by the fitted waistband.
Selena’s face was strikingly bold and beautiful.
Today was a day to change her destiny.
She made a decision completely different from her previous life.
She sold herself personally to the ’monster’.
In her previous life, Selena was sold by her uncle, Mason Kensington, to the Norwood Family to beco the wife of the direct heir of the Norwood Family.
She resisted in every way, even going so far as to jump off a cliff to escape.
Fortunately, she was rescued in ti and it took six months of recovery to bring her back to life.
But her suffering also began at that ti.
Although the Norwood Family no longer pursued the matter, her uncle’s family was dissatisfied because of her resistance and targeted her and her brother, forcing them both out of the Kensington Family, affecting her brother’s path to stardom.
Later, she encountered those two people.
After gathering all kinds of evidence to win back the huge inheritance left by her parents, she was relentlessly suppressed by those two people, combined with her brother being wrongly accused of drug use and imprisoned, she committed suicide in her unwillingness and avoidance.
Now, she was reborn.
Back to when she was twenty years old.
She had to act before her uncle’s family.
In her previous life, she thought her father had left the company to her uncle, so she had no intention to compete for it.
But later she discovered that her father had only entrusted the company to her uncle for safekeeping, to be returned when she ca of age...
Now she was twenty years old, and her uncle’s family had concealed this fact well, even the lawyer who drafted her father’s will was bribed by them and sent far away.
That was why she struggled trendously to compete for the company with her uncle’s family in her past life, but things were different now.
She had the Norwood Family as her backing.
The Norwood Family was the most mysterious elite family in Aethelgard, a millennia-old family with deep roots, the first and foremost family in The Empire.
Despite the strict rules of the Norwood Family, their direct bloodline was thin, to the point where they almost faced extinction.
However, their branches thrived... hence the Norwood relatives spread nationwide.
Their family industries spanned various fields, and they even occupied an entire mountain as their territory.
It’s no wonder that her uncle, Mason Kensington, sold her to the Norwood Family. The Kensington Family started in entertainnt, but after Selena’s father died, things went downhill, and Mason wasn’t capable of managing it, so the Kensington Group’s Stardust Entertainnt kept declining.
But the Kensington Family was only a third-rate elite family in Aethelgard, how could they catch the eye of the Norwood Family?
Because of Selena Kensington, she was chosen by the direct heir of the Norwood Family.
Regarding the direct lineage of the Norwood Family, rumors have been rife in recent years.
The direct heir of the Norwood Family suddenly disappeared from the circles of Aethelgard’s elite over a decade ago, hidden away at the top of Mount Serpentis.
Besides occasionally seeing the current family head of the Norwood Family, most often encountered were the branches of the family.
But rumors about the young heir of the Norwood Family never ceased.
It is said that he suffers from severe ntal illness, prone to madness at the slightest provocation.
...various rumors kept circulating.
It wasn’t until the Norwood Family forcefully suppressed the rumors that they gradually died down.
Selena looked at the car parked outside the window, sighing.
The Norwood Family acted quickly, and this room Selena resided in was bought near the school to move out of the Kensington Family. Being sumr vacation, her brother Hugh Kensington was busy with engagents and couldn’t co back, so only Selena stayed here.
She didn’t have much to pack, after gathering so clothes and valuables, she went downstairs.
"Miss Kensington." The Norwood Family’s butler handed her a red booklet.
This was her marriage certificate with the direct heir of the Norwood Family.
She had beco the ’monster’s wife’.

[As for why it has a fantasy elent, because the author previously wrote fantasy romance and is trying modern romance for the first ti, please understand the lingering old habits.]
