From the start, I always knew this relationship would not work. But to think that...
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLs5HdTXe9L
"I'm in love with Paisley. And there's nothing you can do!"
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wm1EmIdwP
'Ha...so that's how it is? '
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡly3osFbwRC
I looked at my scumbag fiance who was shouting at me while holding another lady protectively.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhAfHywXdS
This lady that he was holding, went by the name of Paisley.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHY6K8wxe1
This lady that went by the name of Paisley was my half sister who was the daughter of my father's mistress.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yFsQR8g5R
This lady that went by the name of Paisley was the person who I had protected when the whole society was against her.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjF8kiYjQk
"I'm sorry that I didn't tell you sister... I-I didn't know when I fell in love with Ronald! It just happened. You don't need to be mad! After all, he never really loved you..."
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfidZB7O4AO
Paisley stuttered as she spoke to me. Tears forming inside her eyes with a guilt ridden expression.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxNIhJDHlJ
She looked like a pitiful and innocent creature.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVeW1HNODvq
Paisley was good with this look. Of course it was a given for the heroine of this novel I had reincarnated into.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9W4fdZz6p
[I Shall Save My Knight] was a story centered around Paisley, the illegitimate daughter of Marquis Deor. She had been raised as a commoner until the age of ten were she was brought into the Deor household.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35RRtclvg6
Upon discovering about Paisley's existence, the Marquis' wife and daughter began to bully and torment Paisley.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTaV5p8mWgo
Six years passed with the endless torture at the Deor mansion and Paisley officially turned sixteen. It was then that the plot of the story began.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTCCNvVNKB
It was the really cliché trope of the innocent Protagonist catching the eye of a prestigious young man.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UUhmRSYi2
Paisley and the Crown Prince of the Empire fell in love at first sight.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vszvD2uQD
Paisley's half sister who was a crazy admirer of the Crown Prince could not stand for this and began to scheme Paisley's doom.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1vEJ1oOcQ
Thus Paisley's half sister plaid the role of the villainess in the story.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJHoEbOUEF
Meaning I am the villainess of the novel - Adrianna Deor.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6iP2f41Ie
After reading the novel and dying in my first life, I somehow got reincarnated into it with all my memories intact.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnrD6zAJ3A
I woke up as baby Adrianna in the arms of my mother, Marchioness Deor, and from that moment onward every action I took was to enable me to have a stable future.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4O19oJ4yG
When Paisley was brought into the Doer mansion, I cared for her and protected her from the fangs of bad people.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dK1zMHlgu
I looked out for her at tea parties and events, making sure she did not make a mistake and tarnish her image.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbRDhT0nA4
I acted like the kind sister, far different from the original villainess yet in the end, this is how I am repaid?
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8HOFIzeqWJ
"You don't need to explain yourself to her! She's not worth it!"
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNoFPGqX4N
My scumbag fiance, named Ronald, held Paisley lovingly and cleaned the tears away from her eyes.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZVvCUT6FR
It looked like the perfect scene between two lovers. But in reality it was plain disgusting.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG048gnOQm2
Just imagine the feeling of disgust when you come back from an outing in a good mood, going to show your sister a lovely necklace she had asked you to purchase for her, and you walk into your sister and your lover making out, in your room!
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKAdD0UmvL
"Ronald... "
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡir7S7VigvL
Their clothes were strewn all over the floor while Paisley looked up at Ronald with eyes full of love.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0AIU74AU8
'Utterly disgusting'
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawBmnszPKe
Crash.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSLGC9mEuu
I threw the necklace I was holding to the ground, its shards shattering around on the floor.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQrb3QoqdH
'Glad I didn't buy it with my own money'
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimJo6jBThY
I put out my foot, stepping on the broken necklace, further crushing it.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hwiprzcPQ
"Pfft"
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6CxIyhYRu
I suddenly broke into hysterical laughter.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGxSm2QLhV
Ronald and Paisley stopped their show of love and looked at me alerted, seeing me suddenly laughing like a lunatic.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVlttJQzwz
They didn't seem to get how funny this situation is.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLigvGKdux
"I sometimes hear when people say they were bitten by their own dog.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthgvB5ToLH
I always wondered how that was possible. Like, how can a dog that I trained, turn on me? But now I understand"
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrjbSFjWW9
I covered my mouth with my hand and gazed at Ronald and Paisley that were confused.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmB6O53JAq
The look on my face seemed to pity them.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3y51G9mlV
"Ronald I always knew you were a scumbag, but.. Paisley, my dear sister?"
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVmaegHdi5
Paisley flinched under my condescending gaze.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvkSVgXbGv
I smiled and spoke to her. "You've made your decision and now there's no turning back"
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpJDFd9B5d
I turned around with those words and exited from the room, but with one last sentence.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX36YQVaNNV
"I'm sending some servants in to clean this place...so better wear your clothes in order not be embarrassed"
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzU4EcOZwV
Clk. I closed the door shut behind me.

Adrianna Deor had been the villainess of the novel [I Shall Save My Knight] that was fated to be executed due to her crimes of endlessly torturing and scheming against the heroine.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmKJsrfumx
But after being reborn as her, I of course did not sit back and wait for this horrible fate.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUhLK5uPSD
In order to get favour and opportunities, I took care of Paisley the heroine, like a loving sister.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrvSCpwhwF
My plan before had been simple:
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpagj8z2WXO
When Paisley meets the Crown Prince and they fall in love, I'll be carried along as the sister of the Crown Princess, living a luxurious life given to me by wealthy brother in law.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnhUAy2Pyr
I'll be given a simple life as I move to the country side after the plot has ended.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryqTuu6u10
At the country side I would make various wines and try different blends. Open a new wine business under a different company name, from the one I already own.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi937kDRqSo
Maybe I'd even take my mother, Marchioness Deor with me. Though I doubt she'll want to leave behind her splendid life of the Marchioness of the South.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDPX1bukZK
But now, all these plans had been disrupted by my fiancé who I had helped and my sister who I cared for her.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQH1DK0idd
Many ways on how to deal with them, went through my mind. But none seemed possible.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHK2YeUZpL
My scumbag fiancé, named Ronald, is the young lord and heir to the Belv Duchy of the South.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1l311IGEh
He's known as the most excellent bachelor in the South due to his fine looks and powerful family background.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85aaV5LlW0
I, a mere daughter of Marquis Deor could not take him down and punish him severely. Well...that would have been the case if I were the original Adrianna from the novel.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENx9uX62DH
Currently, I, Adrianna Deor, owned and managed many businesses. Each being known around the South as very influential brands thus forming a business Empire.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDL4FhtqtoL
The name of this business Empire is 'Wine'. Which is notably my favorite drink.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpngl3toRW6
Though my identity as the owner of 'Wine' is unknown to many, I have a very popular image here in the South.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzG8vs0WC5
Adrianna Deor - the innocent butterfly. My reputation was that of an innocent and kind lady who donated to the poor and treated those of lesser status kindly.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6LCojGtwLV
I was known to be weak willed and a pushover.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEGTlhRZOo
Of course this was all just an act to gain the love of many people and be able to unexpectedly attack my enemies who underestimate my capabilities.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasrpXKWajc
Who am I really? Well, I'm barely no different from the original cruel and evil Adrianna.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3EGXq5ev0
It's just that I don't go around bullying others who have not done anything to me.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjByb4se5ok
"But when you do something to me, I'm afraid things would end up being so pretty... "
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDah0shBf4
From this moment onward, I threw away my plan of living a peaceful life at the country side.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XCIJ00oyd
It was time to deal with all these trouble makers and take what's rightfully mine.
426Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRPxmbD11x
"This story needs its villainess back"
