To Avenge Myself, I Tried to Catch the Crown Prince's Attention

(First-person narration)

Her father wants to kill her, her stepmother wants to ruin her, and the noble ladies shut her out.

She enters the palace not to seek protection, but to wager everything on the greatest reversal of fortune.

The Crown Prince gives her a hairpin three times, and she returns it each time.

"I don't accept gifts I haven't earned."

"I want to give it to you. You don't have to earn it."

She is driven out of the palace, and he storms into her family home.

She is forced into marriage, and he blocks her bridal sedan with an imperial decree.

On her wedding day, she orders her enemy's daughter executed in front of everyone.

Everyone says the Crown Princess is ruthless and vicious.

Only he knows that this thorn-covered woman once escaped barefoot from a pool of blood.

"I am marrying you not because I pity you, but because I admire how you never give up."
