Lady Cinderella

Following her mother’s death, Elladis—known as Ella—loses her father’s affection and is reduced to a servant in her own home, enduring relentless cruelty from her stepmother and stepsisters. Unsatisfied with merely treating her as a maid, her stepmother forces Ella into a marriage with a gambling-addicted Viscount who exists as her husband in name only. Amidst this miserable existence, Ella’s sole comfort is her devotion to the nation’s hero, Archduke Wellington, spending her days memorizing every detail about him. When the Viscount ultimately sells her to settle his debts, a despairing Ella flees with the intention of ending her life. However, a desperate wish grants her an impossible miracle: she awakens back at the age of eighteen. Given this second chance, Ella resolves never to repeat her tragic past. Determined to claim her rightful maternal inheritance, she makes a bold decision to place her fate in the hands of Archduke Wellington. Armed with intimate knowledge from her previous life, she approaches the revered duke and proposes a contractual engagement, using her foresight as leverage. As Ella stakes everything on this daring gamble, the question remains—where will her audacious choice ultimately lead?
