Marriage of Convenience
Controversy Alert!
Listen... Listen I know... I know. The age gap. Lets get this out of the way, a 10 year old was wed to a 20 year old, and then basically left on her own while he went to make money in battles to keep her lifestyle. No consummation occurs until she's an adult, in fact close to zero interaction happens at all. (Not to be like 'but she was 18 when we smashed bro!' but like. fr.) To Zachary's credit, it's not like he wanted a child bride, without the connection to her family, he wouldn't have been able to do his job. Considering the unfortunately realistic circumstances, he behaved pretty admirably. Poor Bianca though. She may have forgiven her father but I never will. Her father is a sack of shit.

Review:
Bianca lived her life isolated and depressed, had a little love affair, and died pitably. Then on her second round, she communicates with her spouse, does her fucking job as lady of the house, and grows as a person. And also gets railed! The reaction images in this title are so good lmao.
And I'm very much not a fan of the maid-abuser trope. Yeah the maid was in the wrong, but jesus christ it's like these authors take some sick glee in punishing those in much lower positions. As if their lowliness is retroactively deserved by their poor behavior. Almost like a proxy of someone the author hates? I dunno. Not swag.
What is DEFINITELY swag is the side character relationships!! This is one of the most fulfilling titles when it comes to giving the sidekicks a happy ending ♡
