The Villainess's Daughter

Daphne was born under a cruel shadow as the child of a notorious villainess. From her earliest days, she has endured relentless hatred from everyone she encounters, punished for sins she never committed. Branded as wicked despite her innocence, she is forced to bear the weight of her mother’s dark legacy without any chance to prove her own worth. Following her mother’s tragic and pitiful demise, Daphne recognizes that the same grim destiny now looms over her. She questions why she must suffer for crimes she did not commit, trapped in a world that refuses to see her as anything more than an extension of a despised woman. Realizing that no one will offer her salvation, she resolves to seize control of her own fate to ensure her survival. To escape the inevitable ruin awaiting her, Daphne must forge her own path entirely by her own hands. Yet the burden of her lineage remains heavy. As she fights to carve out a future free from condemnation, she faces a daunting question: can she truly establish her own identity, or will she forever be defined solely as the villainess’s daughter?
