The Art of Reforming Villainous Men

“The Zeller Duchy is no more, Adeline.”

The family that had been my entire life had fallen.

And it was by the hands of the men I once trusted.

With the collapse of the household, I was cast down the stairs, and somehow, I returned to the past.

This is my chance.

A chance to change the fate of the Zeller family.

I quickly devised a plan.

“Where are you going, Milady?”

“To get rid of things that are of no use to my life.”

I would reform the villainous men who had brought ruin to my family.

Everything seemed to be going smoothly—

Until I realized the way they looked at me was different from before.

“Say you want me, Adeline. Then no matter what tricks you play, I’ll turn a blind eye.”

“I can do anything for you, my lady. Just grant me the right to have you.”

“Renée, sit on my lap. Yes, just like when we were young… Now, kiss me.”

The danger was no longer to the duchy.

It was that they wanted me.
