Synopsis
I became Cassandra, the adopted sister who is destined to be killed by Alexei, the villainous second male lead who turns completely evil and becomes the final boss.
“Run! Escape is the only way to survive!”
But because of an unexpected mistake, my escape route was blocked.
In the end, there was only one way to survive.
“You, I-I like you!”
“…What?”
Become friends with him first!
I desperately tried to win the villain’s favor, and I succeeded in preventing him from turning evil. As an added bonus, I also made sure that all the protagonists from the original story would survive and live happily.
With everything taken care of, I planned to leave before the applause could even begin.
But then…
“Cassandra.”
A devilishly beautiful man wrapped his arms around me as if trapping me in his embrace and whispered,
“Do you really think I’m going to just stand by and watch you leave me after abandoning me?”
Somehow, it seems like my plan has completely backfired…?
“Alexei gave me all of his hunting spoils as a gift?”
Cassandra’s eyes widened in surprise.
She had not yet been adopted into the ducal family, and at the girl’s innocent, pure amazement, the people around her exchanged glances.
‘She really doesn’t know that’s a sign of courtship.’
‘She doesn’t know that accepting hunting spoils means accepting his courtship, either…’
Those who had been exchanging worried glances suddenly stiffened when they felt a menacing gaze fall upon them.
“Alexei?”
Yet that fierce expression instantly softened at the girl’s small call, as though it had never existed.
“Thank you! This is the first time I’ve ever received a gift like this!”
Cassandra smiled brightly, completely unaware of what was happening.
As if taking advantage of her innocence, Alexei smiled back.
“I’m grateful that you accepted it, too.”
At the sight of the two of them, everyone lowered their eyes and swallowed their words.
Yes.
As long as only one person remains unaware, everyone can be happy…
