Summary  You need some "cider moments" (refreshing justice) in romance! This is a fantasy romance where the female lead is kind, but not a pushover. I got reincarnated into a frustrating romance novel with zero satisfying moments—as the new girlfriend of a male lead who only talks about his ex. At first, I thought I could handle it. Even when he thought about his ex on dates, or got all sentimental remembering her, or even said crazy stuff like:

“Delphine, you’re so cruel. Charliene never did this.”

But eventually, I got tired of constantly being compared to his ex and broke up with him. What I didn’t expect was that breaking up with him—who turned out to be from a powerful duke’s family—would get me kicked out of my home. Beg him to take me back? Hell no. I don’t need a family like that. So I left and took a job managing the library at Baron Frederick’s estate. But guess what? He’s also in love with Charliene. He’s so heartbroken he can barely function. Then—ding!—a light bulb went off in my head.

“Frederick, I’ll help you get back with Charliene.” “How?” “I know everything about her—what she likes, where she likes to go, what kind of gifts she enjoys, and what makes her heart flutter.”

“And what do you want in return?” “1,000 luc per mission. Also, since this is overtime work, I want a raise.”

Frederick thought for a second, then nodded.

“Deal.” “Thank you for using our service, dear cu—no, client!”

I smiled brighter than ever. Forget romance. I’m here to make money! …At least, that’s what I thought. I didn’t know then…

“Can I fix this jerk in just one month?”

That Frederick was actually doomed to die in the original story.

“Delphine, if you need me tonight, just say the word.”

And I had no idea I’d get tangled up with Tiago—a runaway slave who became a ship captain with nothing but his own skills!
