#1 - Father, I Don’t Want This Marriage, Vol. 1

A duke’s daughter, despised and outcast by all. A crown prince, feared by even the emperor.

Juvelian is a villainess so universally hated that when she is accused of jealously poisoning the princess of the Ashet Empire, her own father leaves her to die a traitor’s death. Faced with the threat of interrogation by the infamously tyrannical Crown Prince Maximillian, she takes her own life.


And that’s how the story ends – at least, that’s how it was supposed to end.


Now, a reborn Juvelian has joined the cast, and she is determined to rewrite the finale. But even if she manages to change the ending, she will still need to contend with her father’s feral protégé – a young man who sees Juvelian as an obstacle to his dangerous ambitions.

This volume collects episodes 1–14 of the webcomic Father, I Don’t Want This Marriage.

Desperate times call for desperate measures. This manhwa adaptation of Hong Heesu's
webnovel is now available in English print for the first time.


Juvelian, infamous daughter of the legendary Duke Floyen, must rebuild her reputation if she
is going to survive the events that ended her previous life. Amid scandalous rumors of a
secret lover, she makes careful plans for her reformed debut at an aristocratic birthday party.
But finding a suitable date to the event proves more difficult than Juvelian expected.

When she discovers that her father is making plans of his own – ones that see her married off
to the tyrannical crown prince – Juvelian is determined to thwart them. The only problem is
she’ll need to convince Max, her father’s unpredictable protégé, to join in on the scheme.

Is Lady Juvelian at greater risk of dying at the hands of her father’s political enemies… or of falling in love?

Desperate to appear unavailable for marriage to the tyrannical Crown Prince Maximillian – the villain of her previous life – Juvelian has proposed a contract relationship with her father’s rebellious protégé. At first glance, he’s the perfect choice, but a veil of misunderstandings hides a dark truth that could challenge Juvelian’s attempts to change her future.

Meanwhile, political schemes and old grudges are moving in the shadows of the imperial court, and Juvelian’s father, Duke Floyen, stands at the heart of them. As the crown prince seeks to solidify his power, the emperor tightens his hold over the duke.

This volume collects episodes 32–48 of the webcomic Father, I Don’t Want This Marriage.
