After her rebirth, Rita vows not to repeat her past mistakes. This time, her first priority is to stop her brother, who is about to marry into the Lopez family, from participating in the initial game beta test. In her previous life, she was deceived by this scheming brother until her dying breath. It was only at the end that she realized she was merely a villain in a male-oriented novel about a live-in son-in-law, with all the malice and manipulation orchestrated by him behind the scenes.

In this life, Rita decides to change the rules of the game. She will stay in the shadows and seize all the opportunities meant for the male and female leads. By participating in the beta test and re-selecting her abilities, she systematically dismantles the protagonists’ advantages, all while making them believe she’s on their side.

Rita has no intention of harming innocent people, nor is she a selfless saint. In this game, she works with the authorities for mutual benefit, all to achieve her ultimate goal—becoming the true master of her fate.

This Life, I Will Be the Protagonist

Of course, even though the Jones family's elder brother and sister-in-law had rented out the instance mirrors, it wasn't impossible for them to get part of it back, but that would require a divorce to split the assets.

Nova wasn't worried—aside from the portion in the prenuptial agreement, she would still profit after a divorce. Isaac wasn't worried either, as fate had smiled upon him—out of the 27 instance mirrors he owned, 20 were his from before the marriage, so Abigail could only claim 7, and he could even get a share of her assets.

Besides, they were confident that even if things escalated, Wyatt and Abigail wouldn't get divorced. Both had three children, making a total of six kids, and the inheritance hadn't been divided yet. Ezra was practically a common enemy to all six of the children. As long as they didn't want to alienate their own kids or have the six children gang up on Ezra, Wyatt and Abigail wouldn't dare to act.

Isn’t This Even Scarier Than That Disease?!
