I’m a Worthless Stepmother, But I Love My Family Madly!

Branded “useless” and raised in a loveless home, Elsa’s life takes an astonishing turn when an Imperial decree commands her to marry Duke Rolf Eiberg—a man whispered to be a cruel “war maniac.” Yet, instead of dread, Elsa sees this as her one chance for a new beginning, a hope for the happiness she’s always been denied. Her arrival at the Duke’s imposing estate, however, reveals a shocking truth: her formidable groom is nowhere to be found. In his place are his two sons, the fiery Wilbert and the enigmatic Hugh, both utterly oblivious to their father’s impending marriage. Thrust into a household steeped in secrets, detachment, and mistrust, Elsa must navigate a labyrinth of unspoken pains. Can this “worthless” stepmother mend a fractured family, uncover the truths hidden within its walls, and cultivate the love they desperately need? Dive into chapter 1 to witness her extraordinary journey!
