Okay let me get this straight,  I'm now Camelia Crimson. A protagonist who will die young. I hate this,  I rather lived as a villainess or some side characters. Why from all novels that I've read, I have to transmigrate into this one? like it's so fucking annoying. But despite being desperate, I'm the duke's daughter. YEAH RIGHT, "THE DUKE'S DAUGHTER".

So I don't have to care about some crazy engagements, all I have to do is to use the Duke's money as much as I can. In my past life, I'm just an ordinary person. I'm not rich nor being poor. Because now I'm a wealthy person, I will live with a huge amount of money. Indeed, I love this.

"Young miss, we're late," Aisha said 

"Huh? so what? it's not like they care anyway" 

I then entered the dining room.

I'm right, no one cares about Camelia being late. Crimson family only used her as a puppet. Her family used her kindness for their own needs. Camelia was a big-hearted person, she's too naive. But now, I'm inside Camelia's body. I'm not a naive person.

Now, the real story begins

"Camelia, I heard you fainted 2 days ago" the Duke said

"Yeah, but I'm okay now"

"So, Camelia will you go to buy groceries tomorrow?" the Duchess asked

What a cruel woman, why the hell did she ask her daughter to buy groceries

"I kindly refuse, mother" I said

"B-but why? you're kidding right?"

"Mom,  I'm not a maid here" I said to her with a glare

as expected, the duchess was suprised

"Hey, but you're going to be a lady anyway, it's normal to go to the market" Calisto said

"Is that so? but why didn't mom do such things?"

Everyone were speeechless. I'm telling the fact, so stop making excuses you people

"So, what are you planning to do tomorrow?" the Duke asked

"I'm going to do a lot of things this week, in conclusion, I'M BUSY" I said with a fake smile

"Tell me about it" the Duke said

"Nah, I'm not going to tell you, cause you'll monitor me anyway"

"H-how did you know?"

That's right, in the novel, the duke always watched Camelia by sending people to follow her around. And to be honest, it's ANNOYING. Maybe Camelia didn't care about it, but I'm different. I'm a carefree person, I hate being watched. It's like I'm being a prisoner or something.

I smirked

"I may look like a fool these years, but actually I'm not" I said

It's better to confess now, rather than them being suspicious of me.

"Ehem, I s-see" 

Few minutes had passed, I entered my bedroom

"I really need to change this story plot, I dont want to die"

"Young miss, are you okay?" Aisha asked

"Aisha, what would you if you're the duke's daughter?"

"I'll spend a big amount of money, and I'll start my own business, then I can choose my lover"

"W-wait, what did you just said?"

"I will spend a lot of money?"

"No, a-after that"

"I'll start my own business and I'll choose my lover myself?"

"Yes that, you can actually pick your own lover?"

"Yes miss, in order to do that, you should be an influental person"

"You mean, a businesswoman?"

"Yes, something like that"

"But still, my father is a Duke"

"No, if you're a businesswoman, no one can interfere your life"

"Why is that?"

"In this kingdom, politics and business are 2 diffrent things that you can't combine"

"Is it like the magician and the priest?"

"Correct, but if you're involved in business, the emperor even can't lay his finger on you"

"Wow, you're so knowledgeable Aisha, thank you so much"

I didn't know that Aisha know so much information, maybe it's because she's a side character so the novel barely tell things about her.  But as she said, "EVEN THE EMPEROR CAN'T LAY HIS FINGER ON ME". That's the best thing that I've ever heard in my life. I NEED TO BE A BUSINESSWOMAN ASAP !

"Aisha, have I ever study economics before?"

"Indeed you did miss, it's your dream to be a businesswoman before, right?"

"Huh? Oh yeah I did"

Wait, did Camelia ever dreamed to be a businesswoman before? as long as I remembered, she never studied economics before. But even so, she's good at swordsmanship. Or did the story change?

"How about swordsmanship?"

"You did miss, but it's been a long time since you held your sword"

"Hmm, where is my sword?"

"Master destroyed it, didn't you remember?"

"What? The Duke did?"

"Yes, you've always been practicing swordsmanship without your father even knowing it"

So that's how it is like. The story changed a bit,  the duke supposed to acknowledge my skills when I'm engaged with the crown prince. But now, it seems he already knew it.

"Aisha, did my father know that I'm going to be a businesswoman?"

"No miss, it's a secret between us"

"So, my father will hate me if I'm going to be a bussinesswoman, right?"

"Correct miss"

"Hmm, this is going to be an interesting play"

But first, I think I should write down my plan and things that will happen in the future

PLAN :

-invest and be a businesswoman

-avoid the crown prince

-get revenge to Crimson family

-join some guild

-find the Lennox's crown prince instead 



Note for u :3 

In the old days, asking aristocrats children to buy groceries and doing maids works will bring such a disgrace and it'll cause bad rumors among the nobles.
