Forget My Husband, I’ll Go Make Money

I became the wife of a man who already had a lover. Well then, I suppose it’s up to me to protect his chastity?
“You can sleep on the floor,” I said firmly.
“What?” His wide eyes betrayed his disbelief—and reluctance.
The floor was hard, after all. But if that was what it took…
“I’ll just hold your hand and sleep. You trust me, right?” I offered, softening slightly.
But how did the bed end up breaking on my very first night as his wife?
Aristine , a princess kept out of sight by the Emperor,
was in truth the bearer of the [Monarch’s Sight] —a gift that allowed her to see the past, present, and future.
She was sacrificed in a political marriage, wedded off to a fearsome barbarian rumored to be more beast than man.
“The most precious things should naturally belong to my bride.”
Yet, contrary to her expectations, her husband wasn’t monstrous at all—he seemed disturbingly… normal.
Except for one thing: he belonged to another woman.
‘Fine,’ she thought. ‘If this is how it’s going to be, I’ll focus on myself.’
And so, Aristine set her sights on amassing wealth. Why not turn the goldfields into her personal playground?
Can Aristine carve out a life of freedom atop mountains of gold?
Or will she find herself playing a far deadlier game—one where she might just kill two birds with one stone?
