"The Seven-Year Test" I confessed to James Palmer over and over again, but every single time, he rejected me and deliberately set me up with another man, leaving me humiliated. Heartbroken, I had no idea that after turning me away, he would crawl into bed, stare at my photo on his phone, and smile like a lovestruck fool. Completely unaware of the truth, I foolishly spent seven years chasing after him. Just when I thought things would continue like this forever, I overheard James boasting to his friends outside a private room, and that was when I finally learned the truth. "See? No matter how many times I push Daisy away, she always comes back to love me. "The next time she confesses to me, I'll set her up with the heir to the Capital's most powerful family. After she turns him down, I'll take the opportunity to accept her confession." Only then did I realize that everything had been nothing more than James's test for me. Seven years of wholehearted devotion crumbled into nothing in that instant. I pulled out my phone and called my mother. "Mom, I've decided to go through with the arranged marriage to the heir of the capital's most powerful family."
