Synopsis
Reborn as the ex-fiancée, she rejects her doomed role but questions rewriting fate amid competing male leads' affections.
The original Erica was written as the pitiful ex of the novel's male lead, Reo. Now that I'm her, I refuse that pathetic side role, and I'll cast him aside first! But then again... the way he looks at me, with those gentle eyes... No! I must stay strong. All the male leads fall for Juliana anyway. I can't compete with her (she's the protagonist!), but it feels like these men are throwing me into the ring! Should I let the plot run its course or save a few broken hearts and give my destiny a rewrite?
