I had always been a people pleaser. Yet somehow, I ended up transmigrating into the role of the vicious wife of a general. After three years away at war, Scott Holden returned and brought his so-called true love back with him. I handed over the main bedroom without hesitation, cooked for her myself, stayed up all night stitching a pair of matching pillows, and even had all the staff lined up to welcome her properly. But instead of being pleased, Jennifer Cross burst into tears. "This is all my fault. I have no name, no status, yet I'm staying here at Holden Residence, letting Lillian humiliate me like this. If that's the case, I'll just leave!" It hit me all at once. So that was what she wanted. A proper title. So I drafted a divorce letter for Scott myself, brought it to him, and said with an ingratiating smile, "After you divorce me, could you maybe keep me on the side as a mistress? My parents are gone. I don't have anywhere else to go." Scott flew into a rage. "I see right through your little tricks. Jennifer is just staying here temporarily. Are you really that petty?" From that day on, he never set foot in my room again. Then one day, enemy forces attacked. Jennifer and I were both captured and strung up on the city wall, forcing Scott to choose between us. Before he could even decide, I shouted eagerly, "I'll die, I'll die! I'm totally willing! I love that rush you get from falling from high up, that adrenaline spike!" After all, once I died, I could finally go home. But for the first time, Scott's eyes turned red with panic.

La boda con Diego Velázquez, heredero al reino, se vio empañada por la tragedia. María de Mendoza, la hija adoptiva de Lola —la nana que había cuidado a Diego desde niño—, se quitó la vida. La encontraron ahorcada, vestida con un traje de novia. El vino de la boda resbaló de las manos de Diego. Tras un largo silencio, soltó con voz fría, sin una pizca de emoción: —Dale una buena suma de dinero a Lola. Y asegúrate de que María tenga un entierro digno. Y no dijo más. Continuó con la ceremonia como si nada hubiera pasado, como si aquello no le afectara. Cinco años después, la víspera de que Diego ascendiera al trono, recibí la noticia: no podía tener hijos. Me envió a un convento, donde pasaría el resto de mis días, con la condición de no volver a pisar el palacio. Esa misma noche, me mostró una fotografía de María y, sin inmutarse, me dijo: —Cuando ella murió, llevaba mi hijo. Si no fuera por la influencia de tu familia en la corte, dime, ¿cómo habríamos terminado casándonos? ¿Y qué habría sido de María? —Carmen Pimentel, no sirves ni para ser madre. Quédate aquí, reza y paga por tus pecados. Ora por el alma de María y de nuestro hijo. En menos de un año, mi familia Pimentel fue acusada de traición y todos fueron ejecutados. Yo, por mi parte, morí de un infarto, desangrándome por la boca. Cuando volví a abrir los ojos, me encontré de vuelta en el día de mi boda, justo antes de entrar al palacio.
