    Why It Should Get Picked Up:

    This is adapted as a manga
    I love the trope of a girl getting her engagement unfairly broken and then she finds happiness !
    It was being translated but eventually dropped
    Description :

    Duchess Opal, after having suffered an event considered a disaster for an unmarried woman, was married off to Duke Hubert, in exchange of the huge fortune of her dowry.

    The new life of Duchess Opal consisted of solitary imprisonment in a dusty attic. The house after her marriage was full of hostility towards her. And the Duke, making use of all her fortune, lived comfortably with his real lover in the same house.

    Opal gained a reputation of a loose woman after being attacked one night, and she was treated like an hindrance. However, the Duchess doesn’t like losing, so it won’t end like this!

    I will outwit those who make my life miserable…!
