“You’re not even dating the young Duke MacMilden, yet here you are, trying to monopolize him all to yourself. ... more>>

How could you? That’s just too much! Miss Elena, you’re so selfish!”

It was a laughable accusation. In truth, the truly selfish one was this woman, spouting her own grievances since the beginning.

Chloe saw no reason to extend any courtesy, so she ignored her and walked away.

The pink-haired woman’s sobbing trailed after her, echoing unpleasantly like a wailing ghost.

* * *

An unbelievable sight forced Chloe to doubt her eyes.

That strange pink-haired woman from a few days ago was staring back at her from the mirror,

While her real body—Chloe Elena—lay there, eyelids closed.

Before she could even process what on earth was going on—

“Who are you?”

An unyielding gaze, a voice cold and low.

If words could strike, she’d have been hit dozens of times over.

The pressure left Chloe unable to say a word.

But she couldn’t just stand there.

She had to speak up, anything to clear up the misunderstanding.

“…….”

‘I’m Chloe!’

Yet in the body of this pink-haired woman,

Even if she shouted it a hundred times, she’d never be believed.

Chloe had to think quickly—

A way out of this insane reality. <<less

She thought her mother had abandoned her, but in truth, her mother had been protecting her all along.... more>>

In the end, her mother died while protecting her, beaten to death by the man she once called father, a true demon in disguise.

On the day Bella discovered the truth, she too lost her life at the hands of that same monster.

"Please, God, I beg you."

She couldn't let it end like this. With all her heart, she pleaded for just one more chance. She was willing to give up everything if only she could try again.

When Bella opened her eyes, she had returned to ten years ago, before any of the tragedy had begun.

"This time, I will protect Mother."

She planned to take revenge on the father who had ruined everything and live a peaceful life with her mother.

But then, something unexpected happened.

"You promised you wouldn't leave me, Bella."

An invisible thread of fate began to wrap around her, pulling her into something she hadn’t foreseen.

"You promised, so you have to keep it."

"Of course. Should we seal it with a pinky promise?"

"Here."

She had meant it casually, but Edwin quickly reached out his pinky finger. That small gesture revealed how anxious he truly was.

Considering he had lost someone precious in an accident, it made sense that he would be afraid.

"I would never leave Maria or you, Young Master. I promise."

His pain was clear and it made her heart ache. Understanding how deeply he felt, she gently hooked her finger around his, sealing the promise. <<less

She died three times at the hands of the emperor. Then, her fourth life began.... more>>

All I had left was evil and vengeance. I can't take it anymore. Now it is my turn to get revenge on those who have wronged me.

"However, the person whom I will be marrying is not His highness, the second prince."

The surroundings became quiet as if I had poured cold water on them with my words.

The nobles looked at each other in bewilderment, and the face of the second prince was brutally twisted.

The faces of the crown prince and empress, as well as other princes and queens, were clearly embarrassed.

A situation in which everyone is watching me, holding back their breath.

"Then who on earth is it?"

When asked by the emperor, I smiled brightly and pointed to the boy at the end of the prince's row.

"This is the man who I am going to marry." <<less

"You're not even dating Young Duke Macmildon, and you're trying to keep him all to yourself. How can you do that? That's too much. You're so selfish, Lady!"... more>>

It was a ridiculous question, and the selfish one was the woman who only said what she wanted to say just now. There was no need to be polite to someone like that, so Chloe ignored her and walked away.

The pink-haired woman's cries that echoed through the air, like the wailing of a ghost, were very unpleasant.

*

An absurd situation left her no choice but to doubt her eyes: the strange pink-haired woman she met a few days ago was staring at her in the mirror, and her real body, Chloe Elena, was lying with her eyes closed.

Before she could even figure out what the hell was going on,

"Who are you?"

A sharp gaze, a low, cold voice. If words could hit people, she'd be hit with dozens of them. It left Chloe unable to say anything.

But she couldn't stay like this forever. She had to say something, anything, to clear up the misunderstanding.

"......."
"I'm Chloe!

But in this pink-haired woman's body, there was no way she would be believed.

Chloe had to think fast. A way out of this crazy reality. <<less

"If you want to be loved by me, bring me something useful. Like when Countess Balliman offered me the exclusive transportation rights to iron ore."... more>>

The marriage Lily chose to save herself and her mother and earn money for her mother's medical bills turned out to be a huge mistake. On the first night of marriage, Lily realized that her married life would be hell. Unable to divorce because of the d*mn money, Lily was struggling in her own hell when a man appeared before her.

"Lily, if you want, I will gladly become your lover."

The hero of the empire who subdued the troublesome Salamander tribe. The second son of the renowned Maximilian Duchy and a man who proudly secured the title of Count by his own strength. Harold Braden.

"There is only one thing I ask of you. Do not push me away."

Despite his fierce and sharp appearance, like a black panther, his gentle kindness, like soft whipped cream, melted Lily helplessly. <<less
