Because Pushing Didn’t Work, I Decided to Pull Away

The baron’s daughter, Sherry, had a crush on Noel, the eldest of a count’s family and also a knight—ever since they were students.

Every time they met, she’d profess her love to him without fail. Like that, six years went by without any signs of progress.

In the meantime, Sherry heard about a love technique from her friend, ‘If pushing is of no avail, you have to pull!’ and decided to put it into practice. Sherry didn’t want Noel to get overwhelmed by her feelings.

As a result, she decided to put herself under a restriction spell for three months —‘—Don’t confess, laugh, or act intimate with Noel!’

“All those times you told me that I’m the only one for you in your life, I’ve always believed you. I will never let you retract those words.”

Immediately afterwards, Noel suddenly blurted that out and applied for an engagement with her.

Since then, not only had Noel been pampering Sherry, he would also be jealous and would often shower her with passionate words. On the other hand, Sherry continued to take a cold attitude towards Noel due to her restriction spell. Every day, she was in pain. Meanwhile, she also learned of Noel’s circumstances and of his past.
