Viktor got his wish and became engaged to Gwen.

He promised not to let Gwen fall in love with anyone, thus fulfilling the agreement between Angus and him.

As for Gwen, at only ten years old, she was completely unaware of all this and was kept in the dark from the very beginning.

She didn't even know what an engagement was, let alone what marriage represented.

After all, apart from her older sister, she had spent her childhood alone.

Without the care of her family, and even the servants around her seemed to be deliberately avoiding her,

So much so that almost no one explained these things to her.

Besides, Gwen has always been focused on training with the Cavaliers and has no intention of learning about it.

It wasn't until she went to Braxton again, found Leah, and told her about it that she finally understood.

Gwen looked at Leah, who was the same age as her but knew much more than her, and upon hearing these words,

He grabbed Gwen's arms with both hands, his face changed drastically, and his pupils contracted sharply.

"What did you say? You're going to marry my brother... no, marry Victor!?"

Gwen was puzzled and didn't understand why Leah had such a strong reaction.

What does it mean to marry Victor?

"Uh, it's that engagement. You're engaged to Viktor, which means you can only marry him in the future!"

Leah knew that Gwen had lacked love and emotional support since childhood, so she patiently explained to her...

"Marry him, and you'll live together, share the same bed, and many other things."

“In the future, you will be inseparable like the closest family members.”

Gwen blinked, as if she understood something, her mouth slightly open, and the words slipped out:

"Like my sister?"

In Gwen's memory, apart from her sister who would occasionally come home, she had almost never felt much love or care.

Even the servants in the house were intimidated by her abilities and instinctively avoided her.

Only her older sister would treat her warmly, giving her care and love.

Let her feel the warmth of a real family.

And the two years he trained with Kefla in the capital.

Those were the two happiest years for Gwen, when she had her sister's company every day.

If Viktor could become a family member like his sister,

He can even stay by her side all the time, without having to worry about him being away for long periods due to work.

great.

Gwen felt incredibly excited and looking forward to living together like this.

"Isn't that great?"

She began to yearn for this kind of life.

But upon hearing Gwen's words, Leah immediately lost her composure. She hurriedly shook her head and eagerly recounted Viktor's usual misdeeds.

"In short, you will definitely not be happy with Viktor."

"He's a complete and utter villain!"

Observing Lia's indignant attitude, Gwen listened to Lia's words and fell into deep confusion again.

Why does Lia act so convincingly even though she's lying?

It seems they were genuinely angry because of Viktor.

However, she was present on the day she was betrothed to Victor.

She had seen Viktor with her own eyes.

When Viktor spoke those words with his father, he appeared exceptionally serious, and the sincerity in his words was clearly not feigned.

The heart of justice also holds this view.

At least, Victor's first impression on Gwen was that of a true gentleman.

Even if he wasn't righteous and awe-inspiring, he was certainly not as despicable as Lia described.

Moreover, Lia's words themselves carried a hint of lying, especially her description of how she hated Victor the most.

Even though she had been bullied by Viktor for many years, she never hated him.

Gwen felt that

Why can't she try to become family with Victor?

After that, Gwen didn't really listen to anything Leah said to her.

With this expectation in mind, Gwen began her daily wait.

She bid farewell to the anxious Liya and returned to the northern frontier to continue her knight training.

Because her older sister left home for work, she was left alone at home again.

Every moment, Gwen hoped that Victor, to whom she was betrothed, would be like her sister Kevlar.

He personally came to northern Xinjiang to find her and took her away from this cold castle where no one cared for her.

But ever since that engagement...

Day after day, year after year

Gwen could only gaze alone at the seemingly endless, biting snow and wind of the northern frontier.

As her silver hair gradually grew longer and her face lost its childishness,

She knew that Victor was probably just too busy.

But she believed that he would definitely come to see her and would definitely come to pick her up in the future.

They were engaged.

And so Gwen waited for Viktor time and time again.

Victor has never come here.

However, Gwen never felt disappointed.

As she grew older, she became more and more sensible.

She knew it, both for herself and for Victor.

They are not truly free.

Gwen knew that she had to obey her father's arrangements and undergo rigorous knightly training.

As the heir to the Clevinar family and a genius mage, Victor...

He should and must maintain his talent and retain sufficient influence.

Therefore, neither she nor Viktor could extricate themselves from the situation.

Although Gwen only hoped that her fiancé would visit her once a year, she would be content with that.

But the reason why it is a hopeful dream is because even the person in question believes that it is just an unattainable dream.
