♡̷̸⁩ 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!

Irene is a known writer. Her published works have always been well-received despite her notable fascination with bittersweet endings. Not just that, she's also a linguist and of course, a wide reader. One fateful night, while she was at an old rodden bookstore she happened to notice a book somewhat glimmering in the bookshelf. Realizing that it was well-written, she took it home, read it without putting it down for two days and eventually found herself in awe with the character of Magnus Baudin Veritas Courtenay who she considered to be a tragic yet well-rounded antagonist. In her mind, before she succumbed to her drowsy sleep-deprived fatigue, Irene unbeknownstly yearned to save this villain from his treacherous path of misery. When she woke up, her eyes widened in shock. What happened? Why is she all of a sudden in a somewhat English mansion, reminiscent of the setting of her recent read? What in the world happened? And what does it have do to her? (A/N: I own the story but not the artworks.)
