“If I am going to die anyway, I would rather be a villainess or turn the story upside down,” Yeong-ja vowed vengefully.

Kim Yeong-ja was an avid reader who had read thousands upon thousands of books. She had often wished to be transmigrated as the main character of her favorite novels.

But one day, she suddenly woke up as the best friend of the female lead of a badly written novel where she had to die so the female lead and male lead could have their happy ending.

“Why do I have to die for them to be together?”

Yeong-ja was furious that of all the good books that she had read, she had to be transmigrated in the novel 'Loving My Forever’ where all other characters were made merely to make the main character look good regardless of plot holes.

Since she was a patient reader, Yeong-ja continued to read the whole novel despite how bad it was. She also wanted to know what would happen to the female lead’s best friend named Stella. Only to realize that Stella was killed off in the end.  

Now that she was Stella and knows of the future, Yeong-ja planned to change it if she could; even if she had to make the author furious.

First, she had to make sure she survives her death flag. But how will she do it when upon transmigrating, she finds that Stella was already dying?

Join Yeong-ja in her efforts to live and survive as a character inside a book. Would she be able to change her fate or was her destiny set in stone the way the author wanted?

Reversing Predestined Fate

The next day, early in the morning, Stella had a dance practice with Zafir and Hendrick before continuing the work she had to do in Duchess Amelia's study.

After two days, with the help of Sarah and Ella, her mother's head maid; Stella finally finished doing all the piled-up work in the duchess' study.

While she worked on other files, she made Sarah and Ella take care of organizing the work based on urgency, difficulty, and importance.

After that, she made them do all the calculations for the paperwork that involved accounting while she worked on other files.

When she was done with the most urgent and important matters, she finally did the files that involved calculation and accounting.

'Ugh, I wish someone would invent the calculator here already,' she thought as the accounting files took the most time.

'I'm glad I worked hard on my maths.'
