Chosen as the Villainess's Favorite

Reborn as the childhood friend of a novel’s female lead, Lariette soon discovers that the supposedly angelic heroine is nothing more than a two-faced bully. Realizing that simply escaping her grasp will not be enough to ensure her own safety, Lariette determines that she must completely dismantle the protagonist's carefully constructed facade. To achieve this daunting goal, she turns to the one person with both the motive and the means to help: the story’s villainess, who was unjustly framed by the very same heroine. By combining their intellect and influence, this unlikely alliance sets out to reclaim their lives from a narrative designed to ruin them. What begins as a desperate bid for survival quickly evolves into a calculated campaign against a deceitful protagonist. As a former background character and a disgraced villainess join forces, they threaten to unravel the entire story, leaving readers to wonder whether the so-called perfect heroine can possibly withstand the fallout of their united retaliation.
