Falling into the fiery hell she created must've been the perfect way for her to die. The other woman would then become the heroine that saved the town's people from the mad queen that burnt half of the population down and the duke would become the hero that protected the heroine. They would then be wed and have little children. They would live happily in the new world that they would create after vanquishing the evil queen. They would then lead the people unto a prosperous era of peace. Just... Where?... Where did I go wrong? When I am reborn, will you please give me a simple life?

♡̷̸⁩ notes: title and cover changed. avoid voting! ┈ ❥︎ synopsis I was reincarnated as a daughter of the count's family and the young one-sided lover of the male lead who recuperated as a child. The daughter is a small-time villain who tried to separate the male lead and female lead which caused her family to get ruined. It's a cozy life that I got, but I can't let my family get involved in other people's love affairs. So I was trying to get a decent distance from the male lead, who's been recuperating, but he keeps picking a fight. "Cassis, go to the kitchen and complain about the side dishes." "What? Mmph!" "Ogugu~ You eat well." "Mmmmph!" "Huh? What? You want some carrots? Okay." For your information, carrots are the food that Cassis hates the most. *** Whenever I met him, the male lead started to look sad, as if he had grown attached to me while we were bickering loudly. Besides, the way he looks at me is getting weird? "Evelyn, do you want me to get better soon?" "Of course I do. Then you won't have to do this bothersome thing." "....I wish it could keep hurting." "You really. What are you talking about? I don't like it." I said a lot of mean things to get rid of him because we had to break apart anyway. But it backfired...? "Evelyn. I'm hurt." "Did I do something wrong to you, Cassis?" "No?" But why do you keep getting hurt...? I'm screwed. The male lead doesn't intend to go home. And why are you fighting with the female lead over me?! ❥︎ story is not mine!
