In her previous life, she was the docile, timid legitimate daughter of a marquis's household. She trusted a scoundrel and treated her half-sister like family, only to see her entire family die brutally, with not a trace of their remains left behind.
Reborn in an instant, she returns to the eve of her coming-of-age ceremony, before disaster strikes and with old scores yet to be settled.
In this life, her heart is as hard as iron. She tears apart the sweet-faced schemers, kicks her worthless ex to the curb, protects her loved ones, claims wealth and glory, and carefully plots her way back to victory against all odds.
Everyone says the Regent holds power over the court, is cold-blooded and merciless, and has no interest in women.
But no one knows that his heart and eyes belong to her alone.
“Your Highness, someone bullied me.”
“Wipe out their entire clan.”
From then on, she gets her revenge, and he has her back. She builds her career, and he clears the way.
Together, they choose each other, and she is his one and only for life.
