I’ll Be a Villainess, But I’m Going Back to the Countryside

Catherine, who has possessed the body of a villainess who manipulates the emperor only to meet her death at the hands of the male lead, has been ignoring the emperor’s advances with the single-minded determination not to die. Yet all that comes back to her is the rumor of “Catherine Rochelin’s scandalous private life.”

Ultimately deciding to flee from the emperor and pursue her dream of rural life from her previous existence, she sneaks away to a countryside estate while even deceiving her own family — only to be caught by Rowell, the male lead who will one day kill her.

If she’s dragged away like this, it’s certain she’ll head toward the unhappy future written in the book!

‘”I’m sorry, male lead. But I need to survive.”‘

She thought she had successfully escaped — but what’s this?

“Nice to meet you. Young lady next door.”

Where did the old man next door go, and why is Rowell coming out from there?!
