gotta say this is pretty bad. Like almost chinese manhua levels of bad. the chemistry between the two leads is awful and extremely forced. They jump straight into a the standard "contract marriage" for no fucking reason but just for the sake of it. It would actually make a lot more sense if this was instead an arranged marriage rather than a contracct marriage and would actually justify the male lead being a twofaced ass-face shitbag. (i.e. could justify his possessiveness/douchbag behavior if it was arranged marriage considering the culture of his environment since he would expect a "ladylike" parnter who would fulfill the typical female roles of the wife. Now you enter the tomboy "unladylike" female lead into such a situation and then you can actually start to develop romance, drama, etc from that point on due to the differences, and the title would actually make a hell more sense. )
However when you turn the relationship into a contract based one for the sake of having CONTRACT MARRIAGE buzzword than the male lead just turns into an absolute lying, two faced piece of shit who doesn't fulfill his end of the bargain.
tldr; the count is an extremely poorly written character with no depth or real thought put into him besides ikemen + cliche tropy behavior creating vast disparities that make him come off as a bipolar shitbag.
I take back what I said earlier. This is literally chinese manhua levels of writing. whos editing this shit?
