Chapter 1

Leaning against the window while tapping my fingers, I felt the reminisce feeling of the novel I read. 

This is really ridiculous, why am I inside the novel. I remember I died because of the accident and now I am alive and living as Charlotte Laurier, the worst case scenario is that I am living inside the body of the villainess from the novel entitled "happy ever after".

"I wanna die." bulong ko.

Wearing an emerald dress and silver jewelries ay para akong Christmas light na kumikinang tuwing gabi, the long blonde hair with a silver hairpins really did look outstanding to me.

Kung hindi lang kontrabida ang nasapian ko edi sana masaya ang pangalawang buhay ko.

It's the death anniversary of the crown prince's mother at sa pagkaalala ko ay ngayon mangyayare ang cancelling of the engagement which will trigger Charlotte's jealousy to the heroine.

Ah right, I remembered what Cecelia said which is my personal servant. Nangyare na pala yung time na napahiya si Charlotte sa coming-of-age ceremony niya dahil pinakilala ng Male lead yung heroine as his lover.

I am really frustrated, Charlotte is indeed a beauty but is destined to die. Hah! I died once then I'm going to die again what a destiny.

I frowned, realizing that I was riding in the carriage together with Charlotte's beloved family. 

sitting in front of Charlotte's father and her older brother which is the third male lead of the story. Naalala ko na ang lalakeng to ang mismong pumugot sa ulo ng sarili niyang kapatid, napasimangot ako lalo dahil sa naalala ko.

'life is really abnormal'

"Charlotte, I heard you were not feeling well." the baritone voice of Alexander Laurier cracked the entire silence.

What should I reply? Should I tell him that her daughter was dead and was possessed by a human who knows nothing about manners of this world?

No, that's a bad idea Kehlani. 

I never want to have an easier death so It's better to keep distance to avoid bad results. 

"Charlotte I am asking you." The cold tone from the father makes me realize that Charlotte really is a villainess because of being unwanted.

The feeling of being unwanted, what a nostalgic feeling.

Charlotte you should've killed your father before poisoning the heroine, your father is a jerk girl.

"I am not in the mood to talk about what I am feeling right now Father, as you know that I have been chased by problems because of this engagement."

I don't care about my tone of speaking or what he's thinking right now, I'm not Charlotte so I don't care about people like him.

"It was your choice to marry the crown prince and now you're making a fuss about it."

Isa pa tong kapatid nato, wala akong pakealam kung mamuti ang kilay niya dahil sa galit niya kay Charlotte. It's not my obligation to be a 'buddy buddy' with him. 

When we arrived at the Imperial Palace, the nobles from different manors and the knights who was guarding the palace welcomed my eyes. 

What a wonderful world of novel.

We entered the Palace and I found myself standing alone together with the crowds. I was dumped by my father and brother, okay cool. 

As far as I can remember before the emperor and the crown prince will show up, mag-iiskandalo ako dahil nabangga ako ng isang servant at natapunan yung dress ko.

A cliche scenario that will happen if I was really Charlotte pero dahil ako si Kehlani at kilala ako bilang mabait na babae ay mananahimik lang ako sa gilid at maghihintay sa cancelling of the engagement.

I'm not Charlotte so I won't be hurt by the sudden event, mas mabuti nga yon at may shortcut pa ang happy ever after nilang dalawa.

Kung dilang naging obsessed 'tong si Charlotte sa Male Lead edi sana hindi na umabot sa pitong volume yung libro.

Biglang tumahimik ang mga tao at nagsimulang magbulungan nang pumasok ang babaeng kulay dilaw ang buhok. She was wearing a white simple dress with a ribbon on her head.

Is it just me? I think her face is shining, nakakasilaw. 

"I heard the Prince is in a relationship with her."

"baka inahas niya."

"A commoner trying to gain wealth, what a snake."

What a nobles, kung dati ay gusto ko silang sabunutan ngayon namay gusto ko nalang manood. So, she is Serenity.

The adoptive daughter of count Belghoute Bree, the story started when she was adopted due to the same appearance of the count's long lost daughter. Naalala ko, she was abused by her adoptive mother because of the attention her father has given to her. The truth is, she is really his daughter and the abusive mother knows it.

But I'm not a spoiler so I'm not going to tell her tehehe.

"Lady Charlotte, It must be painful for you seeing that girl because of what happened on your ceremony."

Napatingin ako sa babaeng may hawak na wine glass, she was looking at me like 'that's-your-karma-bitch' what a face.

Hindi ko siya binigyan ng pansin na nakapagpa-inis sakanya. I don't even know her so why would I bother giving her my care.

"Are you actually ignoring me?" 

"Hey Lilith, don't give her problems anymore I mean, she's still hurt from the sudden event you know? I heard the Prince is planning on cancelling the engagement."

After the second girl said it, they both laughed while giving me an insult look. Charlotte really is a pitiful woman, I hate her of course but I hate her as a villain. 

Being Charlotte isn't a sin.

Ah! I remember these girls, Lilith and her friends who likes to mess with the heroine. Lilith was once a candidate for the Crown Prince's bride but due to the big influence of House Laurier so Charlotte was chosen.

Marahan kong binitawan ang wine glass ko na nagbigay ng malakas na ingay dahil sa pagkabasag.

They stopped from laughing and I know people were looking.

"What a pleasant sound when the glass broke." Ngumiti ako at yumuko para kunin ang mga basag at kinuyom sa palad ko. Rumagasa ang dugo dahilan upang suminghap sila.

I don't even know why I did it but I needed to wound up my hand in order for me to avoid the real event in the novel.

"When you laughed, it was really ugly but then when the glass broke it was really pleasant to hear. Standing in front of me like I am your servant, laughing in front of me without giving me a respect. In case you had forgotten, the woman you are Insulting right now is the fiancee of the Crown Prince. Insulting me is a direct insult to the Empire."

Binitawan ko ang mga basag saka nginitian sila. "I do not taste a tasteless food when they are served unwillingly so better tell me a certain news that will have a better taste."

They didn't utter a single word so I smiled and elegantly tapped Lilith's shoulder and whispered.

"in case you don't understand, I'm giving you a warning to never talk to me again because I hate everything about you. Just hearing your voice makes me sick. "

After the scenario, I left them wearing a smirk on my face. My words are not even powerful dahil nga sa rumored cancellation of engagement which is totoo naman.

So what? I'm not planning on staying because I am not Charlotte, I'm not the one who's in love with the Crown Prince and as a fan of the novel my ship will be sailed kung magpaparaya ako.

Napangiti ako sa naisip ko, I am going to escape from Charlotte's destiny and will find a better place where I can live freely!
