Premise Noble young lady Nicole has had her heart broken more times that she can count. Her fiancé Keios ignores her, and is attentive to his childhood friend Princess Caroline. Tired of waiting around and conforming to his needs, Nicole decides their marriage will be white and that she'd be content doing things on her own.
As a twist, Keios is just as sympathetic; he alienated Nicole out of sheer stupidity. It became a habit of his to spend his free time with Carolina, who used to be a tomboy; forgetting he was trying to figure out how to act with a proper lady like Nicole. Even Carolina is exasperated by Keios' lack of awareness that he destroyed the love he wanted.
