An heir pursues his first love while his mute wife finally leaves him.
Hayato stands to inherit a powerful empire but devotes his attention to a woman from his past, treating his mute wife Shiori as a permanent fixture who will never object. Her silence allows him to assume unconditional loyalty, so he gives nothing in return. That assumption collapses when she places divorce papers before him, stripping away the certainty that she would wait indefinitely and pushing him to recognize the devotion he mistook for consent.
