A Beguiling Maid Reborn: Rising to Power in the Inner Household

[Reborn, revenge in the inner household, a decisive maid, and a master who pays for his mistakes] I was the most loyal head maid at my young mistress's side. After she married into the marquis's household and became pregnant, she worried that her husband had no one to serve him. So she ordered me to become his bed warmer. Two months later, I was found to be pregnant, too! My mistress grew jealous and refused to accept it. Her husband, touched by her devotion, ordered me put to death. I met a tragic end, dying along with the child in my womb. People praised my master's undying love for his wife. The story of him beating a maid to death for daring to climb into his bed became a celebrated tale in the capital! Are servants really born with lives that count for nothing? When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the first day I entered the marquis's household as part of my mistress's dowry. I'll use whoever benefits me, and kill whoever harms me, leaving a head behind at every step!
