The Viridescent Tiara

I woke up in the world of my own teenage novel, now living as the stepdaughter of the cruel woman who tormented the male lead. This twisted fate placed me inside the very story I had created years ago. Determined to change his tragic ending, I vowed to bring him happiness no matter the cost—after all, I knew every twist and turn of this tale. Yet his cold words cut deeper than I expected: “You were never family to me, Noonim.” Despite pouring my heart into fixing his broken past, he refuses to see me as anything but an outsider. The path ahead is uncertain—can I truly rewrite his destiny before the story reaches its climax? Survival isn’t guaranteed, especially with the looming threat of his rise to power as the future Duke. Every choice I make could unravel the fragile peace I’ve tried to build.
