A dirt spoon, Noh Hyeji, whose resentment over not owning a home runs deep.

But now, she’s a Guide Spoon?!
Apparently, that’s what it means to be an S-Class contact-type Guide.
(She decided to forget the fact that she only scored an F in radiative guiding.)

After six relentless years of saving money while working as the exclusive Guide and secretary of Han Kanghyeon, the strongest S-Class Esper alive…

Ta-da! She’s pregnant!

〈 If Party A (Guide) becomes pregnant due to negligence in contraception, the contract is immediately terminated once Party B becomes aware of the pregnancy. 〉

〈 Party B may claim damages from the Party A for violation of this clause. 〉

No! My precious apartment!

She finally bought her lifelong dream, a Han River view apartment, with a 20% mortgage, only to face the possibility of it turning to nothing.

She doesn’t want to leave Kanghyeon for another Esper. It’s not that she’s particularly attached to the Director himself, she just likes his money.

Just when all seems lost, a loophole in the contract shines a ray of hope.

〈 Once Party B becomes aware of the pregnancy 〉

So as long as the Director doesn’t find out, it’s fine?

“It’s not your baby, Director.”
“…You had a boyfriend?”
“Yes.”
“……”

Defend the Han River view apartment at all costs!
But why does Hyeji’s desperate struggle to avoid contract termination keep spiraling out of control…?

“I heard the Count got scammed again?”
“She’s covering the debts her older brother borrowed?”

A family that indulges in luxury and pleasure despite their dire financial situation.

“If there’s no one to work, then you’ll have to do it yourselves! Laundry, cleaning—there’s nothing you can’t do on your own!”

She fights every day, trying to raise her young nephew properly.

“Still, Lady Devon is really something…”
“With a face like that, who would marry her? She already looks so mean.”

Thanks to that, rumors of her being an ill-tempered young lady have spread all over the capital.
Naturally, marriage is out of the question for her.

Then, a prince on a white horse appears before her.
No, rather, it’s the crown prince of the empire.

“Lady Courtney Devon, will you marry me?”

And he’s outrageously handsome!
Though suspicious of his intentions, Courtney quickly accepts this unexpected blessing.

However, she soon learns the truth about him.

“For having acted without your permission, Master, I would love to have my… my cxck stepped on… by your foot…”
“Crazy.”

The Crown Prince, her fiancé, Richard, is a pervert.
And not just any pervert—a completely irredeemable one.

Finally feeling happy for a moment at the news of the original protagonists’ marriage, she returned after hearing about her mother’s passing…

…But why is everything all messed up?
No, more importantly, why was she in confinement?!

The original male lead, who was her childhood friend and fiancé, spoke.

“If I had known you’d fall for such a simple trick like a death notice, I would have done it sooner.”

The male lead, who she thought had married someone else, laughed at her with utterly crazed eyes.
Why was he like this now? He wasn’t like this before.

“You’ve got nowhere to run now.”

What’s going on here!
