Zander King is a nice person to talk to. She feels so comfortable with him. He is so smart, humble yet confident! He has this ability to make her forget her issues in life and laugh like a normal young woman. He loves to talk and surprisingly, she likes listening to him. When it was her turn to talk, he also listened fervently.
Without even knowing, their wedding night ended without them doing the deed. It was pure communication and conversation but every moment with this new husband is never a dull moment!
Several months later, Zander King is preparing for the incoming imperial examination but his preparation became much easier due to all the information his wife provided him. Initially, he was very surprised that his wife is so knowledgeable about the current imperial system and politics. She even made a personalized reviewer for him and diligently make sure that he will use her self-made reviewer daily.
He is a bit reluctant because how could a woman like her who grew up far away from the capital know so much about the imperial family, existing politics, current events, and many other things? But then again, he could not say no to her especially when she teaches him and spends more time with him to discuss things about different court topics and even citing some examples and solutions. He does not know how did she know all those things. He tried to ask her but she just ignored him and told him to listen to her if he wants to become high ranking official very soon.
He understands that there is no love between them or at least on her end. Sadly, she did not love him so how could he expect her to tell him everything about herself just as he already told her everything about himself? He feels heartache every time he thought about it but all the time that he spent with her are his happiest and most treasured moments!

He convinced himself that she might love him too if he proved himself worthy enough for her so he will do his best to study and prepare seriously for the examination. He wants to be great someday to be worthy of her!
When he married into the General's Mansion, every time he went out, other people will look at him strangely and whisper, others look at him with pity while other people look at him with hate and envy because they probably thought that he is just an ambitious person who used his face and sold his body to climb higher.
He could not blame them, they still thought that his wife is a monster and he is the monster's pet. Their looks and stares mocked him but he did not care. He feels so lucky that he was able to marry her. He always thought that a lovely woman like his wife should not always stay in the Mansion but after thinking carefully, it is also great that few people know of her beauty which means no one will think of snatching her from him!
General Ardor and Lady Andrea are so kind to him just like his wife is so kind to him. He does not care if people insult him, pity him, look down on him or hate him. He only needs the approval of the members of the Lamoreaux family, especially his wife!
He is looking forward to the day, he becomes her husband for real! Not like now, they are only husband and wife in name only.
The day of the examination came and he was so shocked when he checked the questions and problems on the examination paper. The content is very similar to his wife's self-made reviewer! The only difference is it does not have answers yet unlike her wife's reviewer that step-by-step answers and solutions are already provided. He does not know whether he should laugh or cry at that time but one thing is so sure... His wife is scary!!!

How did she know what exactly will come out in the imperial examination prepared by the Emperor? Is she a fortune-teller or practicing black magic? Are all the rumors about her true? Did she truly dance with the evil one to get something in return? No! No! No! Impossible! She is not like that! She will never do that!
Zander King was able to finish the imperial examination way ahead of time. The other examinees are so shocked when he passed his paper so early. He went back to his seat and relaxed while waiting for the others to finish! No sweat! Most examinees are pressured by him while others thought that his brain surrendered so soon because the examination is very hard which is why he passed his paper way too soon!
It is a pity he could only wait for the allotted time to finish before he could go back to their designated places so he is so bored waiting...
The same thing happened on the second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh day of the examination. He easily answered the examination papers because all of the questions and answers are in his wife's precious imperial examination review.
