After a humiliating break-up of her engagement, her childhood friend, whom she hates, proposes to her, but she won't let him have his way!

Description

"Oh, I'm so sorry! Please don't make such an angry face. I truly feel terrible about this... *sniffle*." Actually, this *is* my natural face! And to make matters worse, my supposed fiancé, the prince, isn't even present at this crucial moment. How little respect does he have for me? The thought of being forced upon a nobleman with three children—no, three grandchildren—who is more than 20 years my senior is simply unbearable. It was my childhood friend, the Count, who proposed to me as if to rescue me from my predicament, but... "Please choose me as your new fiancé." We haven't spoken in years; what business do you have with me now, of all times!?

※The former fiancé is absent throughout the story, and there is a perspective from the childhood friend at the end.
