The story begins with Viola Manglica Euphorbia's wedding to Duke Sarcis Tinesis Physalis in the Royal Church of Rosia, the capital of the Fleur Kingdom. Viola, from a noble but impoverished earldom, is marrying the Duke in a political marriage arranged to alleviate her family's significant debt, incurred after a devastating famine three years prior. Viola, pragmatic and accustomed to a simple life, readily accepts the proposal, prioritizing her family's well-being over her own romantic desires.
Shortly after accepting, the Duke himself visits Viola's family, presenting lavish betrothal gifts that astonish them. During this meeting, the Duke reveals his true intentions to Viola in the garden: he desires a "decorative wife." He confesses to having a lover of six years, a former wandering dancer whose common origins make marriage impossible in the eyes of society. The Duke proposes a contractual marriage where Viola will act as a facade, allowing him to maintain appearances and fulfill societal expectations regarding marriage and heirs, while he continues his relationship with his true love. He assures Viola that she will be provided for and even permitted to have her own lovers, as long as it's not too ostentatious. Despite the shocking revelation, Viola, ever practical and focused on her family's salvation, agrees to the terms, solidifying their contract marriage.
A year later, after a delay due to military movements on the southern border, Viola and Sarcis are married in a grand ceremony at the Royal Palace. Viola, feeling out of place amidst the opulent surroundings and the envious gazes of the attending ladies, goes through the motions of the wedding and the subsequent reception. Upon arriving at the Duke's mansion, she is shown to a luxurious private chamber, but Sarcis reveals he will be residing in a separate wing of the estate with his lover. Viola, accepting this arrangement, expresses her intention to remain distant.
The following days see Viola settling into her new life. She is assigned two maids, Dahlia and Mimosa, and a butler, Lotus, who manage her daily needs. Overwhelmed by the sheer abundance of clothing and the unfamiliar luxury, Viola finds herself adapting to the Duke's household. She quickly establishes a rapport with the staff, particularly the maids, and asserts her desire to eat with them rather than alone in the vast dining hall, a request initially met with resistance but eventually granted. She also takes an interest in learning the household's advanced laundry techniques and begins to actively participate in the estate's upkeep, much to the surprise of the staff.
During this time, Sarcis is away on a week-long secret mission. Viola, while exploring the expansive gardens with Dahlia, witnesses Sarcis and his lover, a woman named Calendula, in a secluded annex. Viola observes their affectionate interactions, noting Calendula's mature beauty and Sarcis's seemingly doting behavior. Dahlia reveals that Calendula is older than Sarcis and that he became "softened" after meeting her, having previously been a disciplined heir. Viola, however, remains unfazed, reiterating that their marriage is a contract and she has no romantic feelings for Sarcis, finding contentment in her new life and the camaraderie of the household staff. She also learns that Sarcis is a member of the intelligence division of the military, explaining his secretive missions.
Upon Sarcis's return, he briefly acknowledges Viola at the entrance before heading to his separate wing, a fleeting and impersonal encounter. Viola, along with Dahlia and Mimosa, continues her efforts to bring life and warmth to the grand but somewhat sterile mansion, finding purpose and enjoyment in her new role, even if it deviates from the traditional expectations of a Duchess.
