On the ocean liner, she comes to the rescue of Julian Kane, a mysterious wounded man, and agrees to a marriage of convenience with him when left with nowhere to turn. Little does she know he is the heir to the Kane family empire, commanding railways, shipping and steel. What begins as a reclusive tycoon hiding his true identity blossoms into a tender romance. As workplace clashes and taunts from her old rival mount, affection grows between them, while the truth of his identity slowly surfaces amid the unfolding drama.

In this end-world where everyone worships heroes and shuns the beasts, I was thrown out of the shelter like a piece of trash for not being a hero, only to unexpectedly gain the power to decide whether the beasts live or die. So I opened a supply station outside the walls, and by selling the crystal cores found inside the beasts, I mastered the apocalypse and climbed to the peak of life. So what if they're heroes? Even S ranks work for me now!
