Скачать или смотреть The Duke Thought He Was Marrying An Ugly Girl, Until The Veil Lifted And His Life Fell Apart

💔 The orphan girl the Duke couldn’t give away 🌹

She arrived at his estate with nothing—no fortune, no name worthy of society, only a quiet resilience shaped by years of surviving alone. The Duke had intended it to be temporary. A charitable arrangement. A responsibility to settle before the Season began.

He told himself she did not belong in his world of titles and expectations. That once a suitable match was found, she would be safely placed in another household.

But days turned into weeks.

She filled the silent corridors with laughter. She challenged his severity with gentle courage. She looked at him—not as a Duke to be feared, but as a man who carried too much solitude.

Suitors came. Offers were made. He should have felt relief.

Instead, he felt something dangerously close to loss.

Because the truth he could no longer deny was simple—
he was never trying to give her away.

He was trying to protect his own heart from loving her.
