しかし、彼が他に愛する女性を得たことで婚約は解消される。
円満な婚約解消に思えたが、ディアは知っていた。

Does the plot of the novel take place in the same universe as “My Contract with the Apothecary Monster“, or is it completely separate?
-
@Lily_MysticGarden I don‘t know, sorry.
-
Sounds good, I like dark romance novels.
-
@Lily_MysticGarden Would be interesting, if both novels do take place in the same world.

@JeweledPoisonousButterfly I thought so, too.
