I Decided to Leave Before I was Abandoned
버림받기 전에 버리기로 결심했다"Go ahead and run. I’ll scour the entire empire if I have to—I will find you."How did things get so twisted? All I did was faithfully play the role of a fake wife to stay alive! In the book I tossed aside while reading in the real world,I’ve possessed the body of a duchess’s maid who ends up despised by the male lead and dies a miserable death. If things go as they did in the original, all that awaits me is a pointless death.So I decided from the start—I’d twist the plot. But the one who ended up twisted… was me.I thought I’d deviated from the original, but instead, I—a maid—ended up marrying the duke in the duchess’s place. At this point, the only option is to play the role perfectly… and escape! But something strange is happening.
“If you come with me, I’ll make sure you rise to a position far greater than some duchess. Ricardo doesn’t deserve you. If only you’d come to me, I’d do anything for you.”“There is only one duchess in this world—and that’s you, my lady!”“You’ll never escape from my side. Not ever. Even if I have to follow you to hell.”Wait… what is wrong with everyone?I’m justa duchess in name only!
